Come one, come all, to Six Pin Alchemical Bowling!

Event: Alchemical Bowling
When: Saturday, February 27th (2/27/16) at 8:30pm EST
Where: Gates will be provided from Luna Bank
Length: 30min to 1hr

Prizes:
  • The winning bowler will receive a Raised Garden Bed Deed.
  • The second place bowler will receive an Etheral Ostard.
  • The third place bowler will receive a Conjurer's Grimore.
Description: Each bowler has TEN attempts (frames) per game to try and knock down all SIX pins in their lane. Each bowler will bowl a THREE game set. Points will be tallied from the entire THREE game set and the bowler with the highest score wins. A tie will be decided by a one game bowl-off, and in the event of another tie the same until one bowler comes out on top and there is a second place.

Scoring:
  • Each pin within the game is worth ONE point.
  • A STRIKE bonus of THREE points is awarded for successfully hitting the head pin on the first attempt.
  • A SPARE bonus of TWO points is awarded if a bowler knocks down all SIX pins in a game, plus ONE point per attempt they did not need to clear the lane.
(EXAMPLE) A bowler clears the lane in 8 of 10 attempts without a strike.
6(pin points)+2(spare bonus)+2(unused attempts)=10 point game

  • A perfect game comes out to FIFTEEN points.
(EXAMPLE) A bowler clears the lane in 6 of 10 attempts and had a strike.
6(pin points)+3(strike bonus)+2(spare bonus)+4(unused attempts)=15


Gameplay: The bowling will be done using alchemical symbol tiles and pins (carpet squares). The bowler steps onto a tile at the head of the lane (a roll) and is transported to one of six on the other end, all with pins on them at the start of the game. When a bowler lands on a tile with a pin on it, the pin shall be removed. If a player lands on a tile where the pin has already been removed, it is a gutter ball. After each "roll" the bowler returns to the head of the lane and prepares to "roll" again. The bowler has TEN attempts (frames) per game to knock down as many of the SIX pins as possible.

EM Avalon has her last Event at 8:00 so you'll need to change yours if you want any participation. I'd suggest 9:30 in case hers runs over an hour.

EM Avalon doesn't post on Stratics or UO.com, it's on the UOLegends facebook page, or just say news to the town crier.
