Arena Event: Baruk's Battle

Last month I advertised a PvP event for everyone on the board to celibrate Valentines Day and I felt it was pretty well received.

So I'm running another one (this time named after the latest HU member to ding 50). Pretty much everyone is invited but spaces are limited to 32 (after that my head explodes) and our priority system is:

1. People in HU
2. People that are coalated with HU
3. People that HU like
4. Bridger
5. Everyone else

The event will take place on 1th March at 2.30pm in Galaxy City Arena (Emerald section).

You can help this event run smoothly by.
1. Reading the Tournament Rules and understanding them
2. Having taken part in and hosted at least one match in the arena already, so that you are familliar with arena interface.
3. Keeping still and quiet - the organisation for this is soley done by me and a piece of paper so it takes a little while for me to tell everyone everything. Like I said bear with me.

Sure, I'll try and be there. I have a question, however.

I have a fair few characters which I PvP on, but some are stronger at lower levels than others (for example, Xanthus is pretty good at level 50 but absolutely sucks at anything lower than about 41). Would it be possible to enter as a global handle rather than as a character?

I'm not really happy to let people change charcters between rounds if thats what you mean. Pick your best character and stick with it rather than a lot of people pontificating about wich one of their characters is better against their next opponent. However you DON'T have to pick your highest charcter if you don't want to but you WILL be expected to fight at that charcters maximum level (so you can't enter a lvl 50 and request to fight at only lvl 14)

I think I might have to ban Storm/* Defenders and */Storm Controllers in the arena they seem way too powerful (seeing as scrappers and controllers seem to be more likely to progress and scrapppers seem very weak against Storm)...

I wouldn't really agree with that seems a shame to leave out people because of their powers. Storm isn't overpowering if you know how to fight one. Captain Freon has managed to beat me in a dual, because he knew what to do. */rad is generally more powerful in duals, yet nothing is that overpowering.
