8 vs 8 Tournament, sign up now!

[Profion]

I like the ide to but... We have all fought etch others groups alot before and we know what setup the others are runing whit etc. So in a event like this i think alot of groups will "remake" the setup so its more build only for a FG vs FG fight and not to have the ability to stand against longer and harder fights. And some groups will remove the poor rr4 lowbie they have on regulary basis from the regulary setup and invite the rr11 hardcore killing machine (that they think is a jackass) only to have a better chanse to compete against the other groups.
There is alot of low RR groups that i think would find this event really fun, but dont whant to do this thx to the knowleadge that some groups have alot of high RR players that they cant stand a chanse against even if they are skilled.

What i whant to have after a event like this is not to have a group that pwns everyone thx to the setup they are runing but to se the group that winns thx to the skill the players in the group have =)

What you/we can do to get this more even is to do this event on a ipvp server or smt. All are lvl50,all are on the same RR rank, all groups can have the same classes etc, its more up to the personaly skill if all are starting from scratch. This is only a thought frome my side and i know it wouldent be that fun if you cant play whit your main char etc but it is a thought =)

And to do a thing like this it open the door for the players on the other servers so they have the chanse to fight against us =)

/cheers m8ts would be fun to se a FG RvR event in any form.

This is the deal!


5 guilds/teams from each realm, each guild will fight all enemy realm guilds best of 3.


Winning a match, (2 wins out of 3), will give you a "win".

Losing a match, (2 losses out of 3), will give you a "loss".

Losing a "round" will only give you less good stats if it comes to you being tied with a friendly guild!

Killing your enemy team once out of 3 will not give anything.

If two teams of the same realm end up with the same score, the lost "rounds" will be counted. If the scores STILL are the same after this, kills of enemy players will be counted.

The Alb, Hib, Mid teams with most wins and least losses, will fight eachother best of 3 in the end. (The finals has a chance of it being tied, IF SO, wins/losses/lost rounds from the previous fights will be counted to decide a winner).


This tournament is strictly for fun therefor we only want "normal" setups.

That is why we decided following:

Max 2 Battlemasters,
max 3 Banelords,
max 3 Sojourners,
max 1 Buffbot per group.

Resistance buffs will ONLY be allowed from PLAYING clerics/healers/druids/shamans.

Once you submitted a setup with players/classes, you are NOT allowed to change it during the tournament.

Time and place

Will be decided in a locked IRC channel, together with 2 groupleaders and the judge/spectator.

No spectators will be allowed whatsoever. The only person except the 16 fighters that will attend is a neutral bard/skald/minstrel, from the oposit realm of the two fighting ones.

The spectator is there to see that the winners of the fight were not decided by any terrain, nearby monsters/players or link-deads.

The 3 judges/spectators will be decided after the competing guilds have been announced. The judge may not compete with any character nor be in any guild that is competing. He/she also has to be a well known, good sport .

Kills/deaths will be counted by the nearby buffbots and wont be final untill both teams agree.

Now I know this is not bulletproof and it's not about crowning the king of england, it's all about fun! Soon it wont be just us prydwenites!

Please come with suggestions if you're not satisfied!

PS.
If the interest is big enough we could put more teams in the competition.

Please, if you decide you sign up, only do it with 1 crew/guildmember. After signing a crew/guild here, PM me with names/classes/masterability-lines.

Truly yours,

Niko

U are bored, Niko...

We pwnd Evita's zerg today 1fg, with 4fg of scout adds and 2fg of thurgs

Bahahahahahahahahahaha...

Your group, Falseth's group, 1-2 Hib groups have been constantly adding all night. Falseth's group was the funniest, adding with Skald speed + Sprint after they got exact location information. And adding at 04 AM CET with 1 FG Albs/Hibs/Mids is really cool! Not...

Once we got a clean fight on you, we spanked you good and made you log coming on top of you in regards of realm points. Only exception was Falseth's group, but they have been adding all night long.

You pwned us really hard there.

And for your information, Evita was not grouped today but duoing with a Reaver and only 3 regulars of Evita's group were actually in that group.

Idiot.

Some pictures for you to back it up:

First you "own us" on a tower roof (we bombed you good there):



Falseth's group adding ftw:

Falseth's group adding ftw again, them to the right:



And the actually fight to the left:



And before I get called a whiner again: We released, rebuffed and came back.

 

[Manisch Depressiv]

Sorry for hijacking the thread, on the idea: I like it, and I'd support it.

PvE is more maelstrom-like tbh :worthy:


Doesn't look too good for ze idea really

 

[Elendar]

PvE is more maelstrom-like tbh :worthy:

we are midgards premier roleplay guild! twice hurling champions!
it sounds like a great idea, but as demo said it is possible people will be put off my pe and mael entering, maybe have a 2nd tournament for those who are knocked out in say, first 2 rounds, depends on how you do it, so that everyone has a chance of winning

and blah blah no disrespect to any other guild etc etc but among the lowbies pe and mael are probably the most feared
gif ad too btw, i hear they are back soon for cluster

 

[Belomar]

Just be careful, get caught out and a GM might even suspend you.

damn i look wierd in catamode

 

[Dakkath]

If this can be done and Req & co don't kick out asses for it I think it'd be fun

 

[Elendar]

i think a lot of the issue with the dueling thing was people fighting the same people a lot and getting rps like that
as long as its not omgwtfpwn rr12+ grp vs rr1 grp many times in a row - rp farming basically, then hopefully they won't see a problem with it
the 2/3 thing could cause iffyness, but then again it does seem to be the best thing to do for a good competition
i say we make req let us use camelot as the dueling arena ;d

 

[katjak]

Ok.
Prearranging 1-on1s is bad. It's the short end of a large wedge which ends in deliberate RP farming and people getting accused of cross-realming.
So in general:

Saying 'I will be in zone x on date y and looking for people to fight me solo' is ok.

Saying 'I will be at location x at date and time y, we will have some solo fights and give people a chance to buff/rez etc between duels' is not ok.

As it says above, the three realms are supposed to be at war, you are not supposed to communicate between realms directly in matters of realm versus realm warfare and you certainly aren't supposed to organise duelling events where certain classes (rezzers/buffers) are 'off limits'. While we cannot force you to attack enemy characters and cannot insist that you fight every target that you see, colluding with an enemy realm to not attack a valid target can get you into trouble for crossrealming at the very least.

To be honest, don't see any (real) problems with the CoC. Make the spectator a stealther and all enemies in the area free game. If contestors get killed on the way or by adds, then redo the match.

Could even give bonus points for finding and killing the judge....that would be fun!

 

[Cloudz]

tbh what are they going to do? ban like 50 people? I dont think so.
DaoC needs some new ideas for RvR, not sure if it will work, buts its a great idea and a nice change if it does happen

nice one Niko

 

[Graendel]

Very good idea.

Pfft, all tehm guilds mentioned try to kill me when im solo as is.. i take the lot of them on

 

[Chronictank]

That is why we decided following:

Max 2 Battlemasters,
max 3 Banelords,
max 3 Sojourners,
max 1 Buffbot per group.

rather silly limiting the ml lines tbh
average mid grp has 3 healers soj as was said before so you are pre-defining the mids but letting hib/alb choose what they want

its against coc unless you get goa to turn it into a event like they did with the DG duels back in the day

I cant think of any good mid grp who has 3 soj healers today atleast, but if that's an issue, bring as many sojs as you want, but it's gimped anyway :>

 

[Huntingtons]

in a single fight where its determined who you fight it's probably not as gimped. You start off by fz'ing the support and you've won easy game. will work one time every 15 mins tho ;(

completely irrelevant,
shouldnt it be the grps choice?
its more the fact with skald you gain sos
