The Puzzler 8/13/08(12)

Welcome to this week’s The Puzzler!

What is The Puzzler? 

It’s an image from somewhere inside the Star Wars Galaxies world.  But it’s broken into several puzzle pieces – and you only get to see a few at a time until someone here on the message board correctly identifies the location depicted in the picture!

What do I get for solving The Puzzler? 

If you are the first one to figure out the ‘mystery location’ by posting it in The Puzzler thread, you will hereby get bestowed upon you the forum title “Puzzler” along with the cool Puzzler icon.

There is only one winner a week so you have to be quick!

The Puzzler “Rules”

An individual can only win The Puzzler once, so if you’ve already won, please step aside and let others try their hand at it.

After the first set of puzzle pieces are posted, location guesses only will be allowed in the thread until after The Puzzler has been solved.  Please don’t clutter the thread up by discussing anything else within it until the game is over.  After it is, you can discuss The Puzzler to your heart’s content…but until that time, anyone posting anything other than a location in the thread will have their post removed.

You must be the first person to post the in-game location of the image within 50 units of where the image was taken (for example if the image was taken at 500, -500 and you posted 525, -450 you would be correct).

In the event that 2 people post at the same time on the message board (and the time stamp reflects this), whoever guessed the location within the closest amount of units will be the winner!
 
Posting Guesses:

Please post The Puzzler guesses in the following format:

Planet: <planet name>
Location: 500,-500

Guild Hall Preview from Fan Faire up at EQ2TC!(45)

I’m running around like a crazed redhead here at Fan Faire, but took a break from the panels to put together the information that came from the Guild Hall preview. Wheee! I’m very excited. I won’t have screenshots or other art assets to go with it for a few days, but without further ado, here is a Guild Hall Preview hot off the presses from Fan Faire 2008!

Online Gaming Radio at Fan Faire(3)

This year Online Gaming Radio has 3 of its staff attending; Dellmon, Akira, and Luxx. Dellmon isn’t primarily representing OGR, he’s just there to do what dwarves do best! However, Akira and Luxx will be roaming around the convention with laptop mics and camera in hand providing live video and audio coverage as they travel around the convention.  You’ll be able to spot them easily by their OGRe shirts!

For those not attending Fan Faire, you can access OGR’s coverage by visiting their Fan Faire page!

Greetings from Fan Faire!(15)

Hi everyone!

The first day is off to a great start! Elias and I are rocking the registration table (Virrago is at the other end) and we’ve talked to hundreds of excited players ready to get Fan Faire underway. We’ve seen a ton of familiar faces and it’s great to catch up with Star Wars Galaxies players that we met last year! The Legends Lounge is also hopping as players and devs chat with each other and log in to Star Wars Galaxies and the Star Wars Galaxies Trading Card Game.

If this first day is any indication, this year’s Faire is going to be bigger and better than last year. I hope to meet you if you’re here in Vegas, and if you couldn’t make it, we’ll do our best to keep you up to date on all the happenings!
