End date: Done for now!

Annoucement:
Due to time restraints & not being able to get on to do many rounds during peek time
(when most of mene is online) - I will only be doing 1 round for now.
We will pick this up at another time, or when one of the other girls can do a round. Sorry guys!
Roachi is too tired in the evenings to do this alone.
But this current round shall resume till the jackpot is won!
Then we'll be back in out charity thread till the next event. Any questions please don't hesitate to ask!

The story of the Kete
So this little kete, is what Utopia keeps all her menewshan goodies in.
Many people have tried to steal stuff from the kete, but all have met a horrible fate!!
Apparently you need special numbers to be able to lift the curse and take the prize for yourself!
Otherwise be dealt a horrible, painful, drawn out death...
Geez this girl is crazy! Maybe Dystopia was right about her being the evil twin? 0______0
Anywayyyy...
Utopia told me that 2013 is the year of giving!
So as her contribution to this community she is allowing us to dip our hands in the kete!
We must have the right numbers though! Isn't that amazing?
But seriously, i'm still not gonna take that chance lol.
Instead we'll let Seri & neph do that ;) hehe. Shh don't tell them, it's our little secret! ^^

Anyway, onto the game! I hope you all remember how to play!
If not read the rules, and have fun!!
Don't be afraid to ask any questions, and please do stay and chat and keep the thread alive.
For anything important please ping utopia.
Thanks - Roachi.

How To Play

---> Start here!
There are 2 Ketes to be won.
A grand Kete & A minor Kete
* Each round you will have an opportunity to guess a number & win what is inside those ketes.
* Each Kete starts off with a item(s) & a bit of gold.
* Each time the number isn't guessed correctly the ketes gold/items will increase.
Thus the kete's get fatter with items & gold until the correct numbers are guessed.
And you get to win all the goodies inside!!
Hope you got it now, read on...

---> The Utopian Team (Utopia, Roachi, Nephila & Seridano),
will post the following words randomly during the contest "Rob the Kete!".
And a number in brackets, that will let you know how many people may guess.
E.g [3] people may guess this round. (the numbers will differ)
---> The first (only the first) number of people (as above),
to post their guessed number will have a chance at winning the ketes.
---> If your number is correct you will win the grand or minor ketes!
---> Your numbers may also win random prizes.

---> The numbers you can choose between will be displayed below,
failed numbers will also be displayed.
It is not our problem if you choose a number that has already been chosen.
You will not get another chance to change it - its up to you to check!
---> Every round - numbers are guessed & the kete isn't claimed,
Utopia will add 250g to the (grand) kete & 100g to the (minor) kete.
So you could end up winning a lot of mulah!!
She may at times add items to the kete(s)!
---> You can guess as many times as you like,
only 1 number will be accepted each round though
(unless stated).
---> If you win a kete in a previous round, you cannot win the next round.
Although you can continue to play and win minor prizes.
If you guess the number again, we will revert to our backup numbers
- you will not be advised of this.
If we have a subsequent round after you have sat out of the last round;
- you may try to win again that round.
This is to ensure that everyone gets a fair chance at winning big!
---> You may only win 1 kete at a time. If one of the kete's go off before the other, and you win it. You must sit out the rest of the round.
---> No begging, whinging, complaining, sulking or guilting people out of their items/guesses.
Its not somebody's fault that you weren't alert or fast enough to post!
Bad luck, suck it up and try again! Anybody doing this, will be asked to leave.
Don't be a spoil sport please! Play nice & fair!! Or feel Utopia's wrath!!
---> We reserve the right to update these rules if we need too.

---> So how do you play? Simply wait for one of the Utopian team members to post - Be the first in with your number (make sure it's between the numbers displayed). And booyah! You could be a winner.
NO EDITING POSTS!! IF YOU ARE CAUGHT EDITING YOUR POST YOU WILL BE DISQUALIFIED!
(unless one of the team members have asked you too)

Feel free to hang around and chat if you like, the more the merrier :).

Goodluck!!

*goes to read about the basket*
makes way more sense to me now.
hey, i always mean to ask this.

*waves at dessertdesiert and spunky3*

I think it's funny that you let Seri and Neph let them get their chance to get hurt in the kete.
