The [N-O] "Local Fishing Contest System" is the stand alone version of the popular [N-O] "Grid-Wide Fishing System".
This "Local System" allows parcel owners to host fishing and Competitions on their parcel including in Skyboxes while providing fishing rods free of charge for their guests.
The [N-O] "Local Fishing Contest System" includes:
1) The [N-O] Local Fishing Game Rods Vendor

2) The [N-O] Local Fishing Contest Board
A) Controls competitions in your parcel
B) Enables your N-O Local Fishing Rods to work within 100M of this contest board.
A contest does not need to be running for the [N-O] Local fishing rods to be able to fish.
Unlike the [N-O] Grid-Wide Fishing System, this "Local based system" does not have a 21M height restriction- enabling fishing at elevations as long as Anglers are within 100M of the contest board.
The [N-O] Grid-Wide Fishing Rods will work with this "Local System" as long as the rod owner is within 21M of Linden water level and within the same region as the [N-O] Local Contest Board.
The [N-O] Local Fishing Contest Board is based on the proven [N-O] Contest Board V4.10 (Grid-Wide system) but works as a stand alone system and does not update, or use the Northern Operations's Grid-Wide Fishing Database or web site.
If you have already used the Grid-Wide Contest Board then this system will be familiar to you with minor differences.
Default Owner only use Menu.
"Expire" = Set the number of minutes for the contest
"Start" = Starts the contest, A message will be sent to all rods that the contest has started. The contest board will then automatically record any catches from people within range.
"Ban Menu" = A sub menu so a contest Owner can ban certain people from using the system on contest owner's parcel.
"Owner/Group" = toggles Owner only or Group access to the menu.
Unlike the [N-O] Grid-Wide system there is no Competition name or Region Lock since the board only works within the rezzed parcel (It may work across parcels depending on parcel settings "Avatars on other parcels can see and chat .....")
At the end of the timed contest all rods will receive a message to say the contest has finished. Results are then locked into the board.
The [N-O] Control board will print out to local chat (20M range) full results of everyone in the competition and their place.
All results are cleared and reset once a new contest has started.
You can have both the [N-O] Local Contest Board and [N-O] Grid Wide Contest Boards running at the same time. The Local Contest Board will record results from both [N-O] Local rods AND [N-O] Grid-Wide rods*, while the Grid wide contest board only records results from Grid-Wide rods.
*[N-O] Grid-Wide Fishing Rods must still be within 21M of Linden Water.
