Hey, Tina. I have not looked at the bottom of this thread ... but no you don't HAVE to do this quest. And even if you do do it it does not impact the probability of others not being able to win a house. The first part of the quest gets you into the contest .. but you can continue or not. We were very careful to make sure there is both time to participate ... AND this was tested to make sure this is NOT first come first serve.It would be nice if Cal or someone from the UO team would confirm that there's no point in doing this quest if you don't want to get involved with trying to get a house in the Stygian Abyss. I think he made a comment about two weeks ago asking people who didn't want a house to avoid doing the quest so the people who do want to do it have a better chance of completing it.

Can anyone confirm yet that the only thing this quest seems to do is somehow put your account into consideration for SA housing? Or is it still too soon after the publish for anyone to have this information? (I'm not planning to do the quest if its only purpose is to qualify for a house in the Abyss. I'm too close to letting the ones I already have fall down.)
I'm pretty sure you can. However, Geoffrey and Uskadesh won't remember that they owe you 2 prizes. So, get your first prize before you finish the quest again.I certainly hope I can go back and claim my reward for the first day even though i've already accepted the quest for the second day. >.<
You need to put "sweet spoiler alert" on your posts ...Thank you, Cal. I don't think I'll be doing the quests that tie into the Abyss Housing. I'm close to just letting my subscriptions run out so I can take a much-needed break from UO for a while. I'm trying to clean up some houses and finish some skills first before I do so to make it easier to come back if that makes sense in the future. Spring is finally here in Colorado and summer's not far behind. I'm starting a new job soon. And those grandkids are growing up and it's a joy to be outside and doing stuff with them, even if it's something as mundane as planting flowers and looking for lady bugs or learning to ride a tricycle or a bike.
Theodore is not part of this quest chain for either Gargoyles or Humans. Hope that helps.Well now Theodore won't talk to me...
