Global quests are similar to campaigns and standard quests.  Everyone in a
global quest is given a list of up to 15 different targets to kill (with
the possibility of multiple instances of a target).  The first player to
kill all the targets wins the rewards.

There are multiple gquest cycles and you can only be in one range at a
time:
       - Less than 25 wins.
       - 25 to 199 wins.
       - 200 wins or higher.

If a global quest is completed before 10 minutes have passed and there is
someone else still in the global quest, it will be extended by 5 more
minutes to give people a chance to get a few extra qp mobs.  Finishing all
the mobs in the gquest in extended time does not give you the gquest "win"
rewards - just the qp from the mob kills. If all the remaining people in
the GQ kill all the targets it will end immediately.

Your main interface with the global quest system is via the 'gquest'
command; see 'help gquest' for more information on how to use this command.

The 'global' channel announces all upcoming gquests, and you will not see
any other information on the channel unless you are participating in the
current gquest.  This channel is not available when a gquest is not running.
When a quest is active, only people in the quest can talk on this channel.

While you are taking part in a global quest, certain skills and spells will
not work, or may not work as you are used to. You also will not gain
experience while you are on a global quest so you cannot level out of
the range.

You may only win a maximum of three global quests per level. Therefore,
once you win three global quests at your current level, you simply need to
reach the next level, where you will once again be allowed to win up to
three global quests. There is also a limit of 100 kills per level at
which you will stop being rewarded for individual global quest kills.

A set of rules explaining what actions are and are not allowed regarding
Global Quests can be reviewed in 'help gqrules'.  Clans-sponsored global
quests are no longer available.
