Cinco de Mayo Fiesta - Pińata Time!

Day 1,261, 18:17 • Published in USA USA • by Darkskye


It's Fiesta Time!

Join us for a wonderful Mexican tradition, where we celebrate Cinco de Mayo by busting open a bright and colorful pińata. Trust me, hitting that pińata with an eBaseball Bat is much more fun than clicking attack.

How can you join the festivities?

Well, it's simple. We have this cool pińata right here:


And a deadly eBaseball Bat:


uhmmm, ok, it wasn't that deadly. But you get the picture....



Well, it gets creative from here. I divided the pińata picture into 35 pieces. Each piece is numbered. Like this:


You can click to enlarge.

To pick where you want to hit the pińata, just select a number from 1 to 35 and post it in the comments. Each number has an assigned prize. It's that easy! That's all you need to read (everything below is optional).





Well, uhmm, yes, I'm glad you asked....
You can hit the pinata ONCE every FIESTA BLOCK. There are 4 Fiesta Blocks:

Fiesta Block #1 - May 4, from 6PM-12AM eRep Time
Fiesta Block #2 - May 5,from 12AM-6AM eRep Time
Fiesta Block #3 - May 5, from 6AM-12PM eRep Time
Fiesta Block #4 - May 5, from 12PM-6PM eRep Time

So if you already picked a number on Fiesta Block #1, then just come back for moar during one of the other Fiesta Blocks. For the best chances, why not come back and participate on all Fiesta Blocks? 😉

SOME THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW:
1. Each Fiesta Block has different prizes. Let's just say the last one has the most 🙂
2. Not all numbers will have a prize. Some are just going to be empty.
3. You can pick any number from 1-35, even if someone else already took it before. It's OK 🙂




Each Fiesta has a different amount of prizes. The later the fiesta, the more goodies will be placed. Here's what you can expect:

♦Nothing - Your swing is too weak
♦1x Q3 Food - A little candy
♦5x Q3 Food - Nice swing
♦10x Q3 Food - Magnificent hit!
♦1x Q5 Tank - Lucky bastard!

♦♦♦♦ FIESTA FRENZY ♦♦♦♦
If you won a prize on the previous fiesta, you can DOUBLE your winnings on the current fiesta!

Example:
Fiesta #1 - Got 10x Q3 Food
Fiesta #2 - Got 5x Q3 Food (doubled to 10x Q3 Food)
Fiesta #3 - Missed it (or got nada)
Fiesta #4 - Got 5x Q3 Food (not doubled because missed Fiesta #3)

REMEMBER: The 4th fiesta has the most top prizes. Wouldn't you want to double up your prize by being a winner in the 3rd Fiesta?

♦♦♦♦ PRIVATE FIESTAS ♦♦♦♦
Yes, there are TWO privately held Fiestas. I am a member of the Mobile Infantry, and the Federalist Party. Therefore, there you will find Fiesta #5 in the SPAM GAMES section of the Federalist Forum, and Fiesta #6 in the Mobile Infantry's Department of Pie thread. If you are BOTH a Fed and an MI like me, you can attend all 6 Fiestas!

The links to the private fiestas are below (Forum access to those groups will be required)

Fiesta Block #5 - Now until May 5, 6PM eRep Time - Private Fiesta for Federalists Only
