{{E2 |
Username= Lechian|

Event Name= Midnight Poker Run|

Brief Description= A solo sloop race where coming in first does not matter, but the luck of the draw does!|

Audience= Solo sailors|

Unit of Entry= Individuals|

Expected Participation= Unlimited number of participants|

Platform= Midnight Ocean|

Elapsed Time= About 2 hours|

Participation Time= The full 2 hours as needed to complete the route|

Judging Time= Instanteous at the end of the race|

Extended Description= Solo sloops, consisting of the participant and 3 bots jobbed into a single crew for communications, will be required to run a course where along the way, they are expected to make 7 stops, buying a certain commodity at each stop, which in turn triggers an event person who has a deck of cards ready to draw one card, then send that person a tell with what their card is.  Cards will be recorded on a list by the event people for verification.  At the end of the race, after the 7th card is handed out, participants are to arrange their 7 cards into a 5-card hand following standard poker rules.|

Judging= Winners determined by highest ranking poker hand.  Also, order of finishing is taken for the first 3 finishers.|

Prizes= Best hand = War Brig, possibly "Gambling Spot".  Also consolation prizes for the next 6 best hands in the form of gaming table set, trinkets(?), and PoE.  First place finisher in the race will also receive a renamed sloop ("Hidden Ace"?), and next 2 finishers will also receive a trinket or gaming table.|

Volunteer Assistance= Need 7 shop/stall owners to purchase commodities from who can also be the card-givers.  Also need people to help with charting, if necessary.|

OM Assistance= Trinkets and renaming?|

Workshop Coaching= Trying to work around the possibility of duplicate hands, as this will be working from 7 full decks of cards.  Maybe to use their finishing order as a tiebreaker in the event of duplicate hands?|

Previous Similar Events= Past sloop races have required participants to stop at islands for certain reasons.|

Qualifications= My flag, Avalon, has planned many events in the past, and I have worked with some event planners.|
