Buzz Christmas Contest Mikamon
With Christmas coming, the Buzz will be organizing a contest as celebration of these happy days. Santa Clause has also visited our Buzz bank and left us 200 million shiny dollars we can give away to you, the players. However, we can't give them away for free and some work will have to be done in order to obtain part of the earlier mentioned amount of money.

After having several quizzes, a car stealing contest and a killing contest, the Buzz will now be holding a car auction. On Christmas day, five cars will be put up for sale in random states. Their plates will be logged and will be announced in the issue after all the cars have been sold. The five cars will vary in type and price and the username of the seller will be hidden. The money that is earned from the cars will be put into the Buzz bank to be used for future contests.

To make it a little easier to find the cars, all prices will somehow have to do something with the Christmas holidays and Christmas itself.

Some cars will be relatively easy to spot, others will be harder. To prevent people from simply looking for strange prices, there will also be an amount of 'fake cars' that will be put up for sale to make this contest a little harder. The grand winner of the contest will win a total of 100 million dollars. There will be two second places that will be earning 35 million each and three runner ups that will receive 10 million as their prize.

To compete, just try to spot the cars and buy the car if you think you've found one. Do note, however, that you are only allowed to claim the prize of one car. If a single player obtained multiple price winning cars, the highest prize will be handed out and another car will be put up for sale in order for the contest to continue. Should a car accidentally be used for killing or an Organized Crime or not turn up for a reason, another car will be added to the contest. When you think you have a car, make sure you do not change it's plate, as the plate is the only way to verify if you are really the winner. Everyone in the game is allowed to compete, including Buzz Staff.

A short summary:
  • The contest will start on Christmas day at a random time
  • 5 cars of random types and amount of damage will be put up for sale in 5 different states
  • Several fake cars will be implemented to make the contest harder
  • If a car doesn't turn up, a new car will be put up for sale


Notes:
  • A player can only claim one prize
  • Winners will be determined via the Car Plate, so don't change it after buying
  • Every player is allowed to compete, including Buzz Staff

Good luck on the Buzz Contest and a Merry Christmas to you all!
