DAY 29​

Bulletin board: Kuroto and The Twilight Mexican are in the infirmary. They'll be able to dig again tomorrow, along with Eli, Octo and the players who chose to escape today.

Kingdom Hearts530, you said you wanted to join a new party, but you already did that yesterday, so I'm going to assume you're still digging. JasonTandro didn't post an action either (possibly my fault due to the erratic timing of these updates), but he's an implied digger as well.

Keveh Kins: escape (no additional shards collected)
Claymore: escape (no additional shards collected)

--End of expedition--

Clement Rage: dig
Teioh: dig
The Engineer: escape (2 additional shards collected)

Party size: 2
Level: 3

Mythril shards if successful: 89..178

Result: dig, dig, dig, kupo! 91 shards found
Split: 45 shards each, 1 left over

Progress:

Tomorrow: 93..186 shards if successful, 0% chance of KO

Only one day left in the event! Remember, everyone not KO'd gets a free "bank" at the end of it, so you can still choose to dig tomorrow.

Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more;
Or close the wall up with our English dead.
In peace there's nothing so becomes a man
As modest stillness and humility:
But when the blast of war blows in our ears,
Then imitate the action of the tiger;
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,
Disguise fair nature with hard-favour'd rage;
Then lend the eye a terrible aspect;
Let pry through the portage of the head
Like the brass cannon; let the brow o'erwhelm it
As fearfully as doth a galled rock
O'erhang and jutty his confounded base,
Swill'd with the wild and wasteful ocean.
Now set the teeth and stretch the nostril wide,
Hold hard the breath and bend up every spirit
To his full height. On, on, you noblest English.
Whose blood is fet from fathers of war-proof!
Fathers that, like so many Alexanders,
Have in these parts from morn till even fought
And sheathed their swords for lack of argument:
Dishonour not your mothers; now attest
That those whom you call'd fathers did beget you.
Be copy now to men of grosser blood,
And teach them how to war. And you, good yeoman,
Whose limbs were made in England, show us here
The mettle of your pasture; let us swear
That you are worth your breeding; which I doubt not;
For there is none of you so mean and base,
That hath not noble lustre in your eyes.
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!'


tl;dr - Digging once more! :monster:

If there are still a new party mining today, then I'll join them. Not that it really changes the thing that I've most likely already lost my 3rd place, but I guess I'll still try to improve my score. :sigh:

I'm flying to England today so the final day's results, as well as the overall standings, will be a little bit delayed. Sorry to keep you waiting!

RESULTS​

Before I announce the final results, I have a few special awards to give out. Think of these as the bonus stars at the end of a game of Mario Party, in that they're arbitrary and unnecessary. Unlike in Mario Party, however, these won't affect the actual standings.

Monster Magnet: This award goes to the player who attracted the most monsters (including the Turks).
Eli (Doran Martell), who was attacked by monsters 11 times in 27 digs! Teioh (Teiocho) also gets an honourable mention for attracting seven monsters in 17 digs.

Lucky Charm: This award goes to the player who performed the most successful digs.
Claymore, with 16 successful digs in 28 attempts. Kingdom Hearts530 gets an honourable mention for successfully digging eight times in 14 attempts.

Busybody: This award goes to the player who performed the most digs in total.
Keveh Kins, Claymore and Kuroto (three-way tie), who all mined 28 times.

Captain Klutz: This award goes to the player who was knocked out most often.
Octo, who was knocked out three times in 24 days of playing.

Escape Artist: This award goes to the player who collected the most shards by escaping the mines.
Clement Rage, who gained 16 shards from escaping.

Shard Squanderer: This award goes to the player who lost the most shards as a result of getting knocked out.
The Twilight Mexican, who lost 172 shards, more than many players' final totals.

Overachiever: This award goes to the player who rose the most places in the rankings through decision-making.
JasonTandro and Kingdom Hearts530 (two-way tie), who both finished three places higher than they would have done if the rankings had been calculated on shards found rather than shards banked.

And now, the moment you've all been waiting for, the final rankings! In reverse order:

12. The Twilight Mexican, 10 shards
11. The Engineer, 101 shards
10. Eli (Doran Martell), 123 shards
9. Octo, 136 shards
8. Teioh (Teiocho), 146 shards
7. Clement Rage, 172 shards
6. Kuroto, 176 shards
5. Starling, 189 shards
4. Kingdom Hearts530, 190 shards

JasonTandro, 191 shards
Claymore, 466 shards
Keveh Kins, 585 shards! :monstereat:

The full results can be seen here. Thanks for playing, everyone, and congratulations to the winner!

We should also have a community vote on what the best mining party name was. But for me personally I think it's hands down gotta be "COcK Party". What can I say? Like my wife always suspected, I love the COcK.

I liked how most of the party names were FF related. I also liked how the names Flintlock picked for unnamed parties were generally some kind of innuendo. It seems like a pretty fitting naming convention considering the forum we're on.
