Allright all! since i started to live here, i have been entertaining many of the citisens of Yliakum, Yet there are still a lot of people i miss at the tournaments. I do the best i can to entertain all of you, but i need some help.
Can you all give me some ideas on new tournaments, or the improvement of the ones i organised?
Also, i could use a few more crew-members, employees if you will. if you want a job, please contact me in-game.
It would be lovely if i have a few replies in a short while. If you want to have a little chat, or a big discussion about your ideas, i allways have time for it.
If you have any new ideas, or improvements, you could go and have a look at http://ugo.sinet.it/planeshift is a forum in the site, where you can put your ideas. please place some there.
hoping to entertain you all,

Hmmm...let me think. (takes a lot of effort, you know).
How about something along the lines of the last melee tournament, but team-based? Players would need to form teams beforehand, let\'s say 4-player teams. Then, they register as a team (perhaps with a team name as well). If a team was formed completely of members of the same guild, in a way they could be competing for the honor of their guild or something.
Two teams could form two lines and square off face to face then battle each other. Maybe each one fights the one across from them at the same time (4 1vs1 fights at the same time). Or, maybe the two at one end fight and when they are done, the second two, then the third two and so on. A defeated competitor would be eliminated and after every was healed again, another round would start. This could continue until one team had no members left. Teams would either win or lose as a team.
Maybe not a great idea, but it might stimulate some thinking and inspire someone to come up with a better one. :D

The Next tournament will be a team based one! thanks for the input so far :D

A team tournament....might be fun.
How bout you add this rule, the members watching can use supportave magic to help out. This would surly add a little twist to it and give a better need for some mages in it.

not really seeing as it takes one hit to kill.

Very interesting idea! This definitely could emphasis \'teamwork\' and add some strategy to the team member selection and the roles they play on the team. I like it.

Are you saying mages are weak Drey? lol My buddies wouldnt like to hear that.

no, just that if you intend to have melee fighters and healers.... it only takes one sword hit to kill in most places leaving the healing pretty much redundant.
-
Good idea with the team thing!
Shadowcast, sadly Drey is pretty much right on as far as a large portion of the players go. The game is severely unbalanced. According to some of the devs, this is the #1 priority for future releases. Hopefully things will improve soon.

Just to clear things up a bit.... There have never been strong weapons in any of my tournaments, all the weapons used are the ones bought from harnquist, or trasok.
if we would use weapons that can be looted in-game, all the tournaments would be pretty darn boring.
And i say it once more, The next tournament will be a team based one, 2 players V 2 players

why not go bigger? 10 on 10.... or all one all >.>

[/QUOTE]
cause then the tournament will have to few participators... well, perhaps we will have enough, but not enough awards. imagine what it would cost to award 10 1st prizes and 10 2nd?
it is better to try out the team fighs with 2 players at first, perhaps later on we will have a 4 to 4 fight, but the main problem is the part where the fighters challenge eachother, the more players fighting, the longer it takes to challenge one another

well there are other ways of doing things.

It almost sounds like an idea Drey :P
so I ask.... like?
*giggles*

How about starting with a couple of one-on-one\'s
followed by one or two pair fights
with a tag team fight between the men of laanx vs. Talad\'s warriors where only two combatents are allowed in the arena at once - if a combatant is able to get out the door before dying a new team member can enter to continue the fight
finally a grand one man standing fight in the end.

I have done it.
What happens is that the two teams group up, then they stand far apart from each other in lines. Everyone challenges each member of the other team until everyone in one team is in a duel with the other, then it is counted down and mayhem erupts :P.

Drey: /changetype doesn\'t allow aggressive PvP, only retaliatory... so... everyone would just sit there staring at each other, unable to attack. :D

You want entertainment? Wait for me to come back.

I can\'t wait, Man, can\'t wait...
Be sure to include me in it, Shiva :P

Oh, Psybur has made another special client for you?
No, seriously, I think these people meant having fun together ;)

Yeah... you can get attacked with it on, but that\'s about it. ;) You were supposed to be able to fight back (not start fights, though), but there\'s another check somewhere I didn\'t bypass, and it doesn\'t work. :/ When I initially tested it, I didn\'t notice it allowed the fighting, but you couldn\'t really attack. Whoops... :D It needs to be re-done to handle the new GM system, at some point, but I may just create a full PvP mode at eventually. Till then, /changetype is only useful for temp GM levels, testing, and making someone killable.
-
No special client, Cad. No mods either, though if there\'s something like aineko\'s stuff running around it\'d be nice.
No, I\'m just coming back...I\'m just having issues that are very ironic and slightly amusing, so much so that it deserves it\'s own thread.

This is no MB, Zetsumei ;)

Yes, I know. But I rather enjoyed PS. Both the game itself, as well as the internal politics of the game. That, and I kinda miss arguing, though I\'ve heard that most of the people that did are rather inactive nowadays.

Uh, hello.

Via the rumor mill, I gather. My return (as soon as I can remember my pass, or give up >< ), and yours at roughly the same time...that\'s bound to raise questions and turn heads.

I like the idea sister and I second it.
Also maybe we could have an ulber killing contest. See how many a person could kill in a minute for example ......or one ulber and one hit only. Once the hit is taken you step down and then the next goes. Once everyone is done taking a shot whoever took a hit but walked out with the most life wins. Weak ideas on the fly but could be worked with.......
-
Going out on a limb and thinking outside the box a little here, but Proglin just wanted some fresh ideas anyway. How about a race? Maybe a relay type of race where some certain item (dagger, gold, some sort of scroll) is used as a baton. Runners run to the next person in their team \'trade\' the baton item to them and that person runs to the next and so on to the finish line.
Just trying to break the mold and see what comes of it. :)
