Is Plugy allowed? (And torch/anni?)
The rules from the Farmathon in Textbook's post allow PlugY with Torch/Anni. However, that was from 2014. I have never participated in Farmathon. Did the newer versions not allow PlugY?

Is ladder runewords allowed?
Yes

Does it have to be a current walkthrough posted on jsp or can you join with any character?
Good question. I fear that, if we required that, it would greatly reduce the number of potential participants as most people don't have posted WTs. I would say no, it's not required.

Does it have to be a p8 only character or only while farmathon is up?
P8 during Farmathon.

Does "We as a community will determine the validity of every post." mean that we will vote? If for example a trash mob in pits drops Tyrael's Might and 6/11 players says it's ok, the player gets the score?
No, we won't be voting on every post. What I meant to say is that if several people question the validity of a find(and have just cause), it will be put to a vote.

If I understand the rules right, I need to screenshot the item while it's on ground, and before I identify it? Nothing about after identification?
Good catch. Take a screen with it on the ground untouched and while Id in your inventory.

E: Can players join whenever they want, even after it's started?
No. Once it has started, no one else may join.

Will this Farmathon go on forever?
I was thinking to have it last until 04/30/2020 at midnight. Any finds/posts that occur past that will not count. That is almost exactly 2 weeks.

E2:
Can you join with as many characters as you like?
Also a good question. I would say just one character.

What happens if you die?
If you die, you're out of the competition.

Any scope for adding runes with a score in there? Just to make it a little different.

Excellent questions! Thank you for your thoroughness. Responses have been included in the quote.

That is a great question and I have been pondering on that for the past few days. I think they should be included but to my knowledge, runes have never been included in Farmathon and I'm not sure why... What do y'all think?

Plugy has been allowed in previous Farmathons.



If we're adding runes we need a good way to find out what the scoring should be. I'm not capable of doing that, but maybe someone else is

If runes are included, I'd say just VEX, OHM, LO, SUR, BER, JAH, CHAM, ZOD. However, putting points on them would be tricky

Maybe base the rune on the % it could drop in each 85 area, and then organize them to an order of least common to most common.

I dont really know drop rates of anything, so it was just a quick thought... May not even be possible that way.. If all else fails just give them points by order of the list they are labeled. Zod being last on the list

Don’t certain enemies in the chaos sanctuary have a much higher chance at dropping hrs then in other areas? If there is a scoring system figured out on them I think the over all point total they add should be low.. with the exception of Zod of course
