Guess That Zone Contest






It's celebration time in Norrath! With the popularity of our previous similar contest, we decided to make another one in celebration of EverQuest's 16th Anniversary!

This contest is a fun one, and it will test your knowledge of (or willingness to research) 44 locations across Norrath!

In this contest you will be presented with screen shots that the EQResource staff has gathered from all over Norrath. You will earn points by successfully guessing where the screen shot was taken! There are 2 tiers of difficulty, and each tier has 22 screen shots. Why 22, you may ask? Well, we decided to take 1 screen shot per expansion (+ 1 for base EQ) per expansion, per tier. That means the Easy tier has 1 screen shot from each expansion and 1 from base EQ, and the Hard tier also has 1 screen shot from each expansion and 1 from base EQ. Use this information in your guessing strategy!

The Easy tier screen shots are worth 1 point each, while the Hard tier screen shots are worth 2 points each!

This contest will run from March 14th through April 10th, 2015. All scores and answers will be hidden until the contest officially ends. On April 11th we will disable the ability to record guesses in the contest, and open up the Leaderboard as well as show you which zones you got right and wrong. Whoever is the highest on the Leaderboard wins the complete prize package! If there is a tie, we will assign numbers to each of the tied players and do a /random in game to determine the winner.

Overview/Rules:
  • Due to shipping physical items this contest is only open to US residents.
  • For discussion of this contest, please use this thread
