Hail and Welcome all new owners of beasts!
Since there are new proud owners of mounts out there now, I thought it would be a fun idea to hold a true Jousting Tournament!!
This tournament will be held Saturday 6th of March at 21:00 CET (Central European Time) in the pit where Vresa looks to from the balcony.
There will only be place for 16 jousters (since these duels take longer than normal duels)
Rules:
- One must purchase an entry ticket for 100 circles
- One must have a mount and a lance (OOC: staff or shovel)
- The other hand will hold a weapon free of choice
- One must be able to mount one's animal when called upon
- One will fight another jouster in a knock out system in single combat, winner proceeds to the next round (round 1: 8 times 1 against 1, round 2: 4 times 1 against 1, semi finals: 2 times 1 against 1, finals: 1 against 1)
- Winner of a round is the one who knocks the other one off his/ her mount
- No magic of any kind allowed!
- The eventual winner takes a prize of 1 million home
So, get your ticket from Perlan Cernun and bring friends to watch this spectacle!!!
Note: four ticket reservations already been made, 12 left, get your ticket fast!!
With regards,
Perlan Cernun, Grandmaster of Masters of Move

btw who am i vsing first?
Who fights who will be decided by a system based on dice, so it's all fair:
Each participant has a number: that is also gonna be your number when the dice will be rolled...
for instance number 1 will fight number 6, since two throws of a sixteen sided-dice decides that (if the same number will be thrown twice, the first number stands and a reroll decides another number for the 2nd dice), then all other participants will get a new number, according to this system: 2 becomes 1, 3->2, 4->3, 5->4, 7->5, 8->6, 9->7, 10-> 8, and so on...
Then a 14 sided dice will be thrown 2 times, for the next two jousters facing each other. Then the others will move up a number again according to this same system and a 12-sided dice will be thrown, and so on. Till each jouster has a single opponent for the first elimination round. The winner of the first fight will have number 1 for round two, winner of the 2nd fight will have number 2, and so on. I am aware of a little administration there, but that won't pose a problem.
Note new contestants entered, only 3 places left!! Subcribe while you can!!

Perlan, Grandmaster of Masters of Move

Location change for the joust [due to a lagging pit]
We decided to hold the jousting tournament in a different location, we decided to let contestants have location suggestions for this!
There must be 2 conditions for this location:
1) There must be good and enough places for spectators to watch the spectacle
2) This location cannot be an open area, since jousters that will be thrown off their mounts can travel a long long way ;D
So, if you have a location suggestion for the joust, place your idea here!!
With regards,
Perlan Cernun
N.B. If people wanna hold markets or bets for this tournament, they are mostly welcome. They will have to contact me, and arragements can be made.

the DR library could be good, dont have to worry bout death

Just a heads up that betting in the arena is not allowed
-
For location, how about one of the valleys to the right, just outside Hydlaa? Easy to get to, a kind of "natural" theatre...

a lot of things are not allowd, but people to do them anyway :P

This looks like fun and maybe a good guy gets the chance to stick a sword through Jacula's heart..
Just a though :devil:

im pretty sure perl said no killing so id assume anyone who kills jacula, would end up being disqualified...
-
The House of games hopes to run a sweepstake at this event, details to follow, be lucky.
-
the DR library could be good, dont have to worry bout death
but they can travel on the shelves ><
*edit*
No idea about the place, i lag in the pits, the front of the arena is perfect, however you said small spaces, do you want the small space becasue of players getting knocked off their mount and travelling really far away, or so that we have less room to fly?
The only place i can think of that has small areas are the arena pits, but maybe some wildernedd maps are small too. Dunno, i dont care either just as long as its not underground, or intowns were i might get arrested
*edit*
i forgot to mention that can we use any monts? ad we can only wield 1 weapon in our hand ? because of the lance thing
-
Please edit your previous message instead of double or triple posting masient!
-
about the location:
) anywhere in DR in not an option, it's a tournament for the living, not the dead
) yes, Maisent, because when jousters get knocked off their mounts, they won't travel very very far
) not anywhere in a town, we respect the town rules
for the rest:
) no killing whatsoever
) yes, one lance (we don't joust with teaspoons) and one weapon of choice
-
mabey the BDroad between gugrotid and hydlaa then, its pretty lag-free for me, and its wide open, and when you go sliding off your mount you dont really have to worry about falling off a cliff, just going up and down a hill or two
-
after having tested some locaotion and taking your suggestions into consideration, it has been decided that the event will take place inside the Vulcano. For all who don't know where that as, it's near the gold mine on the ojaroad 2 map
-
The crater (http://www.hydlaaplaza.com/smf/index.php?topic=35174.0) seems a nice place for this.
Are there any news about the apparently higher chance to accidentally kill your foe when riding a mount? (No confirmation window, not even a "you have killed ..." system message, not triggered by a change of stances, observed by other players, but only managed to reproduce this once. It was the first and only time I sent a player to death realm, though.)

A small summary of the event:
The eventual twelve jousters in order of their numbers given to them:
1 Mordaan
2 Jacula who was cloaked and known as Siel
3 Darmyr
4 Bonifarzia
5 Enoreye
6 Earowo (that is the name I believe ;D)
7 Livitin
8 Koios
9 Anibela
10 Maisent
11 Sulaika
12 Perlan
In the first round these fighters fought:
Sulaika - Earowo
Perlan - Maisent
Livitin - Bonifarzia
Darmyr - Enoreye
Mordaan - Koios
Jacula - Anibela
The ones who went to the second round and who they faced:
Maisent - Enoreye
Sulaika - Livitin (unfortunately the dices decided that these guildies fought each other)
Koios - Jacula
These 3 made it to the finals and fought each other in two rounds for points according to the system where 2 wins is 3 points, a tie in the 2 fights is 1 point each, and a loss 0 points:
Enoreye 0 - Jacula 3
Enoreye 1 - Livitin 1
Livitin 0 - Jacula 3
In these finals Jacula won 2 fights from Enoreye which gave him 3 points very soon. Then Jacula fought Livitin one time and won. To make the outcome not clear yet for the excitement of all, I decided to have Livitin and Enoreye fight each other, since he still had a shot at the title. Unfortunately Enoreye won the first round from Livitin, which made it very clear that Jacula already won at that point, since Livitin could no longer get the same amount of points that Jacula already had. Livitin fought Enoreye a second time though and then he won. In the final two fights of this event, Jacula fought Livitin, won both rounds hence giving him a total of 6 points. Moroever, he stood undefeated during this whole tournament. And i we have a history together, i am very proud of him actually. 8)
I think this joust adds one to the succesfull tournaments held by myself 8) highly visited by many people in Yliakum. I would like to thank all who came to watch the spetcale, and all who participated. Special thank goes out to Anibela, Enoreye and Mordaan who filled the places needed for this event, because in the beginning of the evening I really thought I needed to cancel the tournament. Thank You!!!
After having won and being the ultimate jouster of the day, the cloaked sir Siel revealed that he was actually Jacula, and warned all for his skills and that all should fear him. ;D He thanked me for being his mentor and combat trainer, the bastard made the brutal Perlan cry, D@MM YOU, JACULA! ;)
Ooh, a note aside: no Master of Move fears. 8)
I think most who were there really enjoyed the spectacle and had lots of fun, I know I did, except when having lost [due to lag] hehe.
Some jousters and spectators joined the small afterparty later in Brado's tavern, it was very nice.
Thanks all,
Perlan Cernun, Grandmaster of the Masters of Move
P.S. The alliance plans an event of a different sort, but that is for later :) Anyone who made pictures of the jousting tournament please put them here for everyone to enjoy (i had no time to make some, since i was busy being a ref).

I enjoyed being part of this event and watching all the fights, there is certainly new dueling prospects to watch out for. Not counting out the veterans of course :thumbup: Great job Perlan, I look forward to more events in the future.
-
this was actually really fun, too bad though, i really wanted to duel the masked man [PS: sorry for being mean jacula, masient dont like masked people :P]
-
well it was fun to watch and im proud of Enoreye and Livitin for making it in the top three, i figured jac would get in there anyway
was ashamed of myself for letting myself get beat so early on :\
i guess i got cocky out of the whole thing.
but i'll get further the next time around
you can count on that :D
