Nevrax has just announced that they will be giving away 50 nVidia video cards to players of The Saga of Ryzom.  The official press release is below:


Paris, France - January 25, 2005 - Nevrax, developer of the ground-breaking massively multiplayer online role-playing game The Saga of Ryzom, announced today the beginning of an exciting and rewarding in-game contest, with more than 50 of the latest NVIDIA cards to be given away.

"We hope that this skill-based competition will enhance the player's enjoyment of Ryzom and further the exploration of Atys," said David Cohen-Corval, CEO of Nevrax. "This challenge adds an extra level of competitiveness for knowledge, something we haven’t done before."

Beginning Friday, January 28th, the contest will take place on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays at 11:00 p.m. EST on the North American server and 7:00 p.m. Paris time on the European servers, and is scheduled to run for one month. Players can participate while in game using a special chat channel. A riddle (or trivia question) will be asked in the special "Contest" channel and the first player to answer correctly will win a brand new high-end BFG NVIDIA GeForce graphics card (limit one per household). Runners-up will receive Ryzom gear. The winners for each event will be displayed on the Ryzom web site along with the correct answer.

    Sweet. I heard about that at the SoR forums. I think all of the guys and gals in our guild are going to be on and try to win. See you there, and I wish everyone gl. My ingame handle is Dekkert or Fulkari depending on which character I'm using.

    I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere on the Ryzom site or forums. Which forum did you see it on?

    Good contest to help keep people playing. Not sure if this will actually draw new players to the game however. Most hardcore gamers, like myself, already have a nVidia or ATI next-gen graphics card.
