To enter is simple, create a new establishment, event location or point of interest page on UOGuide. You will be automatically entered into the random drawing.
Entry Details

- Establishment - An article about the history of a player owned structure. For an example is Atlantic:Goodman's Rune Library. For details on how to submit an establishment this page.
- Event Location - An article about a special location where an event took place. There should event remnants present indicating something had happened. A screenshot should incorporate such items and a description of the event activities written. For an example see Fan Dancer Dojo - Demon House.
- Point of Interest - An article about a location in UO which is interesting. For examples see the Meer Catacombs and Desert Outpost (East).
Each entry needs to have the following to qualify
- At least one screenshot showing the area.
- Shard, Facet, and Coordinate details as necessary.
- A decent amount of writing on details, history and other tidbits about the location.
Note: A tutorial explaining every detail on how to take, edit and upload a good screenshot to UOGuide will be added soon. So if you don't know how just wait a little bit.
Drawing Details
On Monday June 22 8:00PM EST (-5 GMT), the winners will be drawn in-game using a Lucky Dealer. The drawing will be held on the Atlantic Shard Trammel Facet in Lord British's Castle Throne Room. Each entry will be added to this event announcement and numbered. For each entry the UOGuide drawer will roll 1 dice with 100 sides and assign that result to each entry in order. The 3 highest numbers will win. If multiple numbers are highest then a roll-off will be performed for all entries involved. If two entries by the same person are highest than the next highest number will be the subsequent winner.
Winners will then be contacted via their UOGuide email associated with their user account. Make sure it is up to date prior to the drawing.
