Where: Argent Dawn US - starting in Ironforge - but my character is a lock so I can summon you there (assuming I have another couple of people about).
Who: Anyone who wants to - just roll a new alliance character and look for someone from Single Abstract Noun - or my character Narcolious.
I'm organising an event for Single Abstract Noun this coming weekend. It is tagged as an oceanic event because that is the time that I play - but if you feel like getting up early then come along.
So what is it all about?
Being Noble Garden aka Easter this weekend I figured I would organise a fun event to coincide with it.
The premise behind it comes from the other meaning of Easter Egg. As reads from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Easter_egg_(media):
A virtual Easter egg is an intentional hidden message, in-joke or feature in an object such as a movie, book, CD, DVD, computer program, web page or video game.
In game there are a numerous pop culture references, one of the more obvious examples is Harris Pilton aka Paris Hilton. The idea behind this event it to set up a scavenger hunt that we can run as a guild event to find (and screenshot) a number of pop culture references in game while having fun - and yes the thought that there might be a number of level 1s trying to weave their way across Azeroth is part of the fun!
I will be formulating a series of clues to find our in-game references and we'll go a searching for them. Depending on how many people turn up we my split up into teams and compete to see who can get it done quickest (for boasting rights). I'm aiming for it to take an hour to an hour and a half. But feel free to join or leave as you need to!
If you can't make it, play on the EU servers or want to run a similar event in a better time for you - then please stick your hand up and take charge of running one yourself! I'll post the clues on my blog before Monday (maybe Friday) so you can all cheat and get some idea where we are going! If you want to organise one yourself and want the clues - email me and I'll get the answers back to you!
Lastly - if you have a favourite in game reference please email me (email is upon on the right on the blog), or direct message me on twitter and I'll see about including it. If you do email it through then it might be useful for it to include an explanation of the reference (as some things are not obvious - particularly in other countries) with a wowhead link!
