Hi guys,

As we all know, Entropia Universe is a game in which you should invest our money wisely. If not, you risk losing valuable PED's in no time. However, sometimes you just can't resist.. "Hmm, I feel like crafting today!" or "Wow, nice item, wanna have!" And you feel bad, because the PED's on your PEDcard keep dropping..

And that's why I decided to go Back to Basics!
Everything I had I dropped in storage.. Everthing besides the sweating tool of course!

So I went to Nea's place and I started sweating. Boy, was that a long time ago! It's so **** slow!
But I have to learn a lesson..

And I want everyone to join me!
Post a screenshot in this topic, where you are sweating!

Demands:
- Loot window must contain at least 50 bottles (NOT 50 sweat, but 50 bottles!) (Clearly visible!)
- Timestamped!
- You can participate only once, but feel free to sweat as much as you like!
- In your post, you can guess how long (in minutes) it will take me to gather 1k of sweat.
- No editing!
- Only one person can win! First one to say the closests time wins!
- End of contest: Wednesday 20h MA time


I will start gathering this 1k on wednesday and I keep on sweating till I hit 1k of sweat.
I'll sweat at Nea's in group, I won't heal myself and my Sweat Gatherer skill is 130 :ahh:
If I take a break, the timer will pause!

The person closest to the actual time will win the following:
- 1k sweat
- 2000 CFD
- 50 PED (Yes, another drop in PED's.. But I hope I'll see many people joining me!)
- Additional pot: 0.00PED, 200 CFD, 0 sweat (Feel free to sponsor!)


SPONSOR (Thank you!):
Onyar Loorden PSS: 200 CFD
Feel free to sponsor!


Conclusion:

- With this event I hope I will learn you how to appreciate the value of a PED and how hard it is to gather.
- Working hard, combined with a well calculated guess will be rewarded!
- Join in, and improve the community!

Hope to see a lot of screens here!

General Alcazar.

so, timestamp is not broken for everyone? Good to know. My position and time quick key icons don't seem to work for some oddball reason.

What about Right-click >> Show time?
Make sure you're chat didn't block such messages!

And if nothing of that helps, you could use another timestamp (PC time or so..)

My estimated guess is: 194 minutes.
 
My guess 99min witch is 90 min past the point where I would have blown my brains out if I ever have to sweat again
 
will u be sweating at the fert station or just near the tp?
 
Hi mate, nice event. My guess is 154 minutes.

Here is a picture of my hard earned sweat:

 
It takes me anywhere from 1 to 3 hours per k, unless I am in broken terrain. Note that when sweating, I spend about half my time chatting instead of working. I will venture the guess that with applied effort, a k takes 80 minutes to gather.

I have a question about the time here . . .

Is this time including all "sweat related" activities at nea's, or just the time actually spent w/ VSE on target?
For example, will the time spent returning from revive, or running from mobtrains be included in the total time/1k ?

Well, after a little independent research, I'm gonna have to guess . . . 185 minutes.
 
I'll guess 176 minutes

All the time I spent ingame getting my 1k is included.
(Revive, running back to mob, etc..)
