She won't respond to "/whisper" so you actually have to find her and look her in the eye to claim the prize. Well, that, and get her attention somehow. </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/find-els-mom-a-silly-and-perhaps-impossible-contest#post-192 Sat, 23 Feb 2008 16:49:36 +0000 Kylkiluut 192@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p><strong>Hint #17:</strong>Saturday: online from 10:45 am(server) to 1:00 pm (server) with random breaks.

Hy would have it except for his spelling dyslexia.</p> <p>Her name is an anagram of this web site (sans 'extreme')</p> <p>She'll be online tonight approximately from 7pm - 10pm Pacific Time. (I think that may be 2 hours different than server time.)</p> <p>She always starts and leaves from the same Inn.</p> <p>She always spends a minimum of 10 minutes with you-know-who. (If you don't know you-know-who, you <strong>should</strong> know you-know-who, and thus where he is, and thus where she will be.)</p> <p>She will be questing in Stonetalon Mountains, Ashenvale and perhaps Wetlands (hint: 'who' is your friend).</p> <p><strong>Special Award:</strong><br /> After the contest, the non-winners on any RP-PvP server (anyone who actually phrased the question "Are you El's Mom?" to another character) can win a prize just by emailing me stating they did so. I assume that all fisherman are honest and never lie. I will post the name of each alt on the RP-PvP servers who is qualified to award the non-winners prize. :) </p> http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/topic/find-els-mom-a-silly-and-perhaps-impossible-contest#post-174 Wed, 20 Feb 2008 23:08:39 +0000 Hy 174@http://www.elsanglin.com/forums/ <p>She's on Netherwing's tit?
