KICKBALL EVENT RULES

  • Levels 47-50 only.
  • Depending on the amount of players that join, Kickball's will range from 1v1s - 8v8s.
  • All matches will be 10 minutes in length.
  • All matches are required to leave Diminishing Returns enabled, Travel Suppression disabled and Heal Decay disabled.
  • All maps are set to random.
  • Small inspirations and arena purchased temp powers are allowed.
  • 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 all KB's.


ZONE PVP
  • Zone PvP will occur after Kickball. Fight Night zones include: Bloody Bay, Sirens Call, Warburg & RV. All levels are invited if they fit the required level limit of the zone.

Miscellaneous/FAQ
  • "What is kickball?" Kickball is a format for informal Arena combat. Two captains are selected, who take turns choosing players for their side until all are chosen. The two teams then fight for 10 or 20 minutes.

  • All fight nights are for fun only!


  • You cannot send tells to someone if that person is in Arena. So if you show up late and need to get a hold of me but can't, send an in game email to my global.


  • "Where do I go for Kickball?" Meeting place for Kickball will be Pocket D upstairs by the arena kiosks.


  • "How do I register?" You may register by sending me a tell 15 minutes before event starts for guaranteed spots in the first match. Anyone who shows up after the hour may need to wait for the next match.


  • If you are a lowbie and not able to join in on the Kickball, but want to experience the Zone PvP, you are welcomed to send me a tell for the estimated time on how much longer the Kickball's will be going on.

Used to love taking my 50 Invuln tank to this every Friday. She got her butt kicked (pines for the good old days when Invuln meant Invuln!) but it was always fun none the less! Glad to see this is still going on, keep up the good work.

Its a different Fight Night.

If memory serves me correctly the PvPEC Fight Night is just a rename of their old Kickball Tournament and not the old Virtue Fight Nights that GV used to host.

Fight Night has a history on the Virtue server, I am simply bringing it back with PvPEC sponsorship.

Be that as it may, as far as I am considered without Generic Villain, it's simply not the same Fight Night.

Do you even know what number Fight Night this would be?

Fight Night hardly started with Generic Villian, you are dismissing the other many many hosts of this Virtue tradition. IMHO Fight Night came into its own back in i7 under Pillbug, Elernet, and Sneginka. I love the videos Tabbycat made of the first few Fight Nights. To me it's a shame that this event lapsed over the years. Although it's true that this Kickball event sponsored by PvPEC isn't quite what Fight Night used to be, I hope with a little time we can bring it back to its former glory days. I regret that Fight Night had retired its status before I was involved in the Virtue community and got to enjoy it. I've been talking with a few people who were active with it back in the day to get some ideas, and in the great tradition of the former hosts hope to put a little of my own spin on it.

Since this is the first night I figured it would be best to stick with a very simple event such as Kickball. I hope to try a few other fight genres as things progress. As you seem to have a lot of experience with Fight Night, I would love to hear any ideas you might have on how we can make this the great event we both want it to be.

For now, unless you know what number we are on lets just call it Fight Night 2.0, lol.

So the first Fight Nights were not Fight Night?

Because it was not Generic Villain's creation, you know.

Apparently so. It's like when a band goes through several lineups: only the lineup that was current when you got into the band is the true lineup. The rest don't really count.


Dr. Todt's theme.
i make stuff...

Like I can remember who hosted Fight Night 4 years ago, I can barely remember the color of my socks.

Then again, I just participated, its not like I'm trying to take the event over while not knowing its history or tradition.

Do as I say not as I do dammit!



Anywho, I am glad the event went well. What was the turn out like?


 

Posted

I moved a few toons to Virtue so I will try to be there for this.

Also, hey Arky.

The turn out was, to my surprise, very decent. We had enough to run several KB teams. I think next time I'm going to try something a little bit different, so I will be posting on that soon....

Thats great! Here is to hoping the ranks swell!

I'm going to stick with regular Kickball again this week since I haven't had much time to plan out something else. I'll probably add in some 1v1's if anyone is interested in that as well. And Warburg will be our designated zone. Next week I will be doing set teams. If anyone has a team of 2-8 that they would like to enter in for NEXT WEEKS competition please sign up here or send me a tell in game. More information on that a little later in the week.

Yes it was fun! Ty for coming! It was a nicer turn out than last week. Every week it will grow, that's all we can ask for.
