Remember if you aren't racing, then cheer on your fellow racers!

Expected February prizes!
------------------------------
7-day heat amp!

CE! (Lots of it!)

Lockbox (Lots of em!)

Crowns, crowns, and more crowns!

Also possibly armor, helms, shields, and weapons!

MILITARY WINGS and Sonic Suit!
(A lotto for all spotters and racers)

P.S. Admission is FREEEEE!!!!!

SIGN UP AT THE HAVEN 7 GARDEN! We register your name for the lotto.
(Note: Non-US East Participants might experience lag issues)

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Prepare yourself! The Race-a-thon consists of several races.

Little Cup- prizes include minor CE and crown prizes, 3 laps around the fountain. (10 circuits)

Major Cup- Big CE and crown prizes! Consists of 3 races! 3 laps around the fountain! Winners are judged by points. (5 Circuits!)

Lockbox Race- Lockbox Grand prize! Minor CE and crown secondary prizes! Consists of 5 laps around Fountain AND Auction house. (5 Circuit!)

*There will be other miscellaneous unannounced races for weapons and armor. Please stay tuned for updates to this post.

Next race will be on: February 25th at 12pm EST at Haven 7! (due to change)

NOTE: Also hiring honest spotters! I can't spot winners by myself. Minimum pay of 100 crowns per race spotted. Pay will raise if proven trustworthy. Max 500 per race.

UPDATE! WE WILL NEED 6 spotters! Mostly for spotting close racers, but mainly 2 for anti cheating on the big circuit!

PLEASE NOTE! If you are deemed disqualified for any reason, you can still participate, just not in the current race you were disqualified from. Everyone makes mistakes. Constant cheating will result in permanent disqualification regardless whether you run or not.

how does this race work? any

how does this race work? any instructions or rules?

P.S. i'm interested to be a spotter :)

Daarke

its simple.

do laps around the said race circuit, win prizes. just line up where i stand, and stop when you finish the race so i can call winners easier. the only rule is no cheating in the race I will watch you on the map. and i do need spotters on finish and to make sure there are no cheaters mid race.

P.S. spotters are hired on spot, I will release a more specific date as i amass prizes.

its more in depth.

its pretty much about how well you move in a race too.... surprsingly a lot of people can change from first to second in a single lap.
Also mecurial armor effects only work in clockworks not in town. i already verified it.
