Whip It, Don't Tip It!
What?
Whip a bull from start to finish line as fast as you can! Make sure to bring your Stockwhip.
When?
| Part 1: Saturday June 2, 2018 at 7 pm GMT | Part 2: Sunday June 3, 2018 at 3 pm GMT |
You can also use https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html for easy time conversion. UTC is the same as GMT.
Where?
The start line is in Suez at 1357 5573. You can line up near that spot to wait for your turn. Make sure to show up in time through your own transportation facilities.
How?
All chat will be going on in the Events channel. Type "/join Events" to open it.
As soon as you get the GO signal, you can start whipping a bull that is reserved for you. Whip the bull all the way around the arena, clockwise, to bring it to the finish line at 1379 5539 as fast as you can. Your lap will be timed and will determine your ranking.
Watch out, you will be disqualified if you lose your tip, feed, slaughter or send your bull over the arena edge! No ranking, no prizes in that case.
A cowgirl or boy will be sent onto the track once each minute. There may short breaks in between groups to allow for smooth organization.

A cowgirl or boy will be sent onto the track once each minute. There may short breaks in between groups to allow for smooth organization.
A judge will register the real life time it takes you to go from start to finish down to the second. This time will determine your group ranking and overall ranking. Needless to say, faster is better.
