FISHINGQUEST

Fishing quest is basically a way to peacefully pass some time on Medievia.
Anyone level 10 or over can play, and this is probably the best quest for
newbies as there is no player-killing allowed. The quest typically runs
for 30 minutes to an hour. Note that if a dragon is circling or hunting,
you are in no danger as long as you stay on the water.

Fishing equipment will be provided to you after you enroll in the quest.

--Note on Deep Sea Fishing:
Normal river/lake fishing uses a fishing line or rod, whereas deep sea
fishing uses a net. To fish you need to have a NET and be in a beach room,
next to the ocean.

--Scoring:
There are 3 score categories, Total Caught, Total Weight, and Average
Weight. Each category is ranked by the top 3 people scoring.

The object is to try to get the #1 spot in all 3 categories. While this is
difficult, it's not impossible with some work. You might want to
strategically turn in specific fish, or just blindly turn in everything
you happen to catch. There is naturally a large amount of luck (the random
weights).

You may not give fish to another player or accept fish from another player
to increase your score. You may not turn in fish you caught before the
quest started. All fish you turn in must be caught 1) by you and 2) during
the quest.

Your fish are weighed, randomly. That is, each type of fish has a
different possible maximum weight. The weight you get scored is a random
number from BaseWt. to MaxWt.
