Maybe have a location players can purchase a book with a form or something for entry and a mailbox to drop it in..?

Yes! I'm sorry, it slipped my mind! ^_^;; Erm, I could place runes at the GOF vendor house in Luna.. under the vendor "Kawaii DJ Kittie" I will place runes to the place to get a book and drop in the mailbox. ^_^;; Entirely my fault. I will edit the post as well! Thank you kindly!

I want to thank all of Great Lakes for making this event such a huge success! Because of you and all your contributions, this event was not mine, but yours. It was truly a community event for the players BY the players.
We had nearly 50 different people in attendance and with over 110 mill given away (not to mention some nice high/er end items!), I am happy to say it was a MAJOR success!
Thank you all for everything; contributions, support and well wishes.

A VERY special thank you to; MOA, Nails, UORadio, Celebrindal, Zandor, Dai.. for either your time, support and/or contributions.

I only hope to do more for Great Lakes and more for all of you, the players. Please keep an eye out, as I will be having MORE events in the near future! (Already have 2 in the works! hehe)
