This event will consist of 3 rounds. An Elimination, Semi-Finals & Finals Round.

  • Finals: 1v1v1 Free For All
(See the section entitled “Additional Details” for more information.)




EVENT RULES

  • Please Note: that the Arena terminal can be accessed via Menu -- Thus I don't really care where you are located. I will be using the Arena chat which can be seen by any player currently on the server and as long as you follow it you SHOULD know what to do. However, it is MUCH easier to communicate when you are in the same location as I (pocket d) along with a whole bunch of other stuff...
  • This is a SHW Event. Levels 47-50 only.
  • In the event of an odd number of players (not divisible by 3), random player(s) will take a turn receiving a PASS. No player will be allowed more then 1 PASS.
  • All matches will be 10 minutes in length.
  • All matches are required to leave Diminishing Returns enabled. This means that the "No Diminishing Returns" option is not to be selected. // simplified: DR is on...
  • All matches are required to have Travel Suppression disabled. This means that the "No Travel Suppression" option is to be selected.
  • All matches are required to have Heal Decay disabled. This means that the “No Heal Decay” option will be selected. // Yes, any kind of heal will hit for max all the time...
  • Teams may agree on the map of their choosing. If both parties can not agree on what map is to be used, then the map will be randomly selected by the arena system. No map resets will be permitted, including for cage matches.
  • One Reset is permitted for player disconnect within the first 90 seconds of a match. Any disconnects after the first 90 seconds (or a second disconnect) will result in the team having to play shorthanded.
  • Spawn camping is not permitted. If spawn camping is reported, the match will be repeated AFTER the Round Robin segment of the tournament has completed WITH the event host present. If an event host observes a team spawn camping they will be immediately disqualified from the tournament.
  • Only inspirations and temp powers bought from the arena store are permitted. SoW's (Strength of Wills), present inspirations, and/or base buffs are not permitted. Any player is subject to random checks by the event host. Refusal to accept the trade or team requests by the event host will be grounds for immediate disqualification.
  • Please be respectful to your fellow players by refraining from "trash talk". A player may be disqualified at the event host's discretion.
  • Please try to arrive at least FIFTEEN minutes early to register for this event. // Whos idea was this again??


ADDITIONAL DETAILS


The Elimination
  • The Elimination Round will consist of three 3-vs-3 matches.
  • Players will be randomly assigned to a team by the event host.
  • Players will be reassigned to a new team between each match.
  • Matches will be scored based on a Swiss Style Point System. 2 points for a win, 1 point for a tie/draw, 0 points for a loss. If a team forfeits (or refuses to fight their opponent) the forfeiting team will recieve 0 points, while the remaining team will receive 2 points for a win.
  • The players with the 9 top scores will pass to The Semi-Finals round. In the event of an uneven number of players (not divisible by 3) the players with the lowest score(s) will be eliminated in a free-for-all match.

The Semi-Finals // read carefully.....
  • The Semi-Finals round will consist of a 3-vs-3 Double Elimination Tournament. Players will participate in matches until they have 2 defeats.
  • Teams will be selected in a “Kickball” fashion. Team captains will be randomly chosen by the event host. Each team captain will then take turns selecting their teammates. You will keep this team for the entire Semi-Finals round!
  • The players on the last remaining team will continue to the Finals round.

The Finals
  • The last three players will compete against each other in a 1v1v1 match.
  • The player with the highest score will be the event champion.

*** The winner will receive a Knives of Artemis costume code from Paragon Studios ***
Good Luck! Have Fun!

Hey, it went on for a bit after you left. Sure, it isn't around NOW, but it was...

"the reason there are so many sarcastic pvpers is we already had a better version of pvp taken away from us to appease bad players. Back then we chuckled at how bad players came here and whined. If we knew that was the actual voice devs would listen to instead of informed, educated players we probably would have been bigger dicks back then." -ConFlict

in spite of the lack of people to show up I think that was pretty darn fun. Been a long while now since I've even stepped foot in the arena.
