PMU Weekly Event. Week of January 24, 2021

Hello all,

Due to recent increases in the number of players, it has recently become a bit tough to host a weekly event where everyone can attend at the same time without running into some issues. While we might return to this set up sometime in the future, at least for this time we will be trying something new.

This week’s event will be trivia – but not the trivia we’ve done before. Instead, this trivia event will be hosted through a google forms sheet rather than in-game. That sheet can be found at https://forms.gle/xwDYAK2u92fPLHBe8. Submit all answers using the provided Google form, making sure to follow any instructions as stated in the question. Once you submit the form your responses are final, so make sure you have the answers you want when you submit!

This event will give 3 tokens just for completing the form, along with a token for each 3 questions you get right, for up to 8 event tokens. You can complete it any time from now up until the end of the day on the 30th, UTC. Following this time period, we will grade the responses and award tokens appropriately.

We ask that you not discuss any of the actual questions on this quiz in our official discord server, our forums, or in-game on global or any populated map (Crossroads/Grassroot Town), and that each person only complete the quiz once (meaning for only one character). If we at any time suspect one person has tried to claim tokens for more than one of their characters, we hold the right to withhold tokens from all of their characters, and may enact further punishment if deemed necessary. Please play fair out of respect for the game and your fellow community members. Of course, feel free to collaborate or use your resources, such as the PMU Wiki!

If you have any feedback on this new format, feel free to contact a staff member about it. This is a trial run in response to some new conditions, so we expect not everything will be completely perfect right out of the gate.

Hi all,

The quiz event has been closed for a bit, and distribution has begin! Once you log onto PMU, you will get a notification for the amount of tokens you have been given. This will happen as long as you log in within the next 30 days.

I graded all 270 responses personally, and I’m sure I might have made one or two mistakes. I might be a little slow, however - it takes time to look through so many responses.
