It's Finally Here! [MoC]

Day 939, 18:38 Published in Ireland Ireland by The Irish Community

Hello, eIrelanders!

It’s the Princess again…here to apologize…again.
She went to Alaska and then had zillions of millions of things to do concerning her RL job…and…you know…Real Life money and bills and things.

Anyway-
She is here to finally get the Carnival answers out there, announce the winners, and distribute the long-ago promised prizes.

She will then be stepping down from her Ministress of Community post so she can better manage her time amongst her other duties. She knows and trusts that Einberliner will be wonderful.

And so...
Here’s what’s going to go down:
1) Lottery
2) “Riddle Me” Answers and Winners
3) “Crossword Crazy” Answers and Winners
4) “Peek-A-Boo Pictures” Answers and Winners
5) “Who’s on the Ferris Wheel?” Answers and Winners
6) “Ring Toss Riot” Answers and Winners



Lottery

The lucky lottery number (from way-back-when, I know) was 14!
Therefore, the lucky winner is the very handsome and very wonderful Yddub Emwolb!
Yddub is the lucky winner of 52 IEP!
Congrats!

”Riddle Me” Answers and Winners

For those of you who don’t remember because it has been so long (again, sorry about that), “Riddle Me” was an IRC exclusive contest that allowed contestants to answer as many riddles as they could only via IRC.

The Answers

1) His name has two numbers which sum to eleven
Hard Worker medals, he has one more than seven.
His avatar features him sipping tea.
Who is this recent president of the IFP?

Of course, this was the wonderful JohnSmith 2k9

2) The battle in this region was certainly historical
Six million damage is simply not ignorable.
You’ll know of this place if you’re a big fighter,
What was its name, discussed in the eRepublik Insider?

Read up on your eRepublik Insider! It was Heilongjiang!

3) This party is home to a CP candidate favorite.
He ran once or twice, but was never voted into it.
Despite the defeat, the party’s not out of the game.
What is this small “center-right, libertarian” party, do you know its name?

This one caused some trouble. The CP candidate favorite (in a popularity sort of way) was Munster Tom.
And that makes the answer The Irish Rugby Party!

Let’s See Who Won!

The following people answered ALL THREE riddles correctly:
Ian Arbuckle
Orangejuicemmm
Anaille Kolshire
Connell Rath
DashRipRock
Kijowa_ta_gra

And this guy answered two of them correctly:
JohnSmith 2k9

Congrats to all you riddlers!

”Who’s On the Ferris Wheel?” Answers and Winners

You all remember this game, right? You were given a little rhyme and you had to figure out who was in which seat in the Ferris wheel below



Answers

The people on the ferris wheel are eIrish citizens.
Your job is to find which seat they are sitting in.
You ought to know one person in the pink seat on the left.
The other one may not be the person you first suspect.

The person in Pink is of course the Princess, but the other is not the person you suspect (Patton)

The guy right below Her Highness and another
Belongs to a group of Irish pirate brothers
Of all the pirates I could find,
This guy has the most HW medals: Nine.

The guy in the Black is, of course, Mr. Conor Larkin

On the other side of the wheel, you’ll find a very nice fellow
He’s a level 18 Colonel in the box colored yellow.
A proud eIrishman. From the Northeast he hails,
Probably most famous for his random newspaper snail.

Ben Shields is sitting in the yellow car! Everyone knows the Daily Random!

Above this fine man, not one car but two.
Is a very skilled player, sitting in the blue.
His name has numbers and he’s tried for CP
His rank is Number 1, a lot higher than me!

Yep, the guy in the blue is 5n4keyes!

Look up on the top! He’s almost in the sky!
He’s in charge of the tanks. He’s a really nice guy.
He recently designed medals for the Ministry of Health
All of his HW medals must have brought him a lot of wealth!

Anyone? The guy in the purple is Anthony Colby

Let’s take a peek into the orange wheel seat.
In there is the guy who chairs the eIrish Celtic League.
If you talk with him, he’ll fill you with elation.
He’s a great man, and a former Minister of Information

MMhmm…The guy in the orange is don.squire (Where did you go, love? The Princess misses you!)

The guy in the orange is in the same party as the yellow car man with a snail.
What a small eWorld from which we all eHail!
The Princess’s friend in the pink is from this party too.
The eFrench may call her Beignet if they know her like most eIrish do.

The party, of course, is Independent Voices. The translation for beignet is Donut. And the girl in the pink car alongside the Princess is einberliner

Don’t forget the mister in the green car! Don’t leave him out!
He said he wanted some war in his very recent shout.
He’s a very skilled soldier. My skills are definitely worse.
His name is funny if read in reverse.

*snicker* The gent in the green is Yddub Emwolb!

Farewell Notes
It’s been a wonderful experience being able to be involved with the eIrish Community in this really fun and fresh way. The Princess really feels like her pinkness was put to good use in the contests and riddles she was able to share with you all.

I hope that you all welcome Einberliner (Donut) as warmly and you all did with me when I started as Ministress of Community.
It’s been a great experience and the Princess does so hope that you all will continue to participate and have fun through the ministry’s efforts.

Remember to participate in Donut’s World Cup Contest

Who knows…maybe she’ll let me use my design for the Community Awards winners!



See You Around,
Irish Princess
