Pip's Poll: Duelling Rules
« on: October 13, 2005, 06:39:04 am »
Vote Yay or Nay. Pip requests for you to PM her (not me, I\'m just creating the poll for her ;) ) if you have any questions or need to discuss something regarding the subject. Poll will remain open for 3 weeks after initial post. Have fun~



Rules For Duelling

1. No duelling in the plaza or tavern at all, or anywhere that is well populated. (Unless by a prearranged audience)

2. A verbal challenge is made giving a) reason for challenge b) weapons preferred (including fists) c) whether magic should/shouldn\'t be used d) place and time

3.The challengee may countermand b), c) and/or d) above. The challenge is then verbally accepted/declined.

4. When the conditions discussed in 2. and 3. have been met, the duel should begin - both the Challenger and the Challengee should place themselves at a convenient length facing each other.

5. For training purposes go to an empty room in the arena or away from areas which are busy, where parties can challenge each other as much as they wish. (This may suit those who like to fight each other for fun)

6. In the case of a guild war terms should be drawn up and agreed between the leaders of the warring guilds. Bearing in mind that rule 1. should always apply.

7. If you use the PvP system for your RP fights, then any form of exploitation is not allowed. Commodities like shortcuts may be used for convenience, but not for speed.

This is spam... there\'s already a thread on it.



Some people will abide by it.   Others will not, for RP reasons.  Some of it is superfluous to the official rules as enforced by GMs.

Ahem, little colorful birdie... \"him\"? Pip (in-game: Pipra) is Janner\'s wife - so, tell \"her\", please.  ;)

Apart from that, I am happy to realise that those rule proposals have been spread to other guilds\' discussion boards already.

No, Drey - for showing a lack of respect against the public order, you will be \"pebbled\" on the plaza (see \'Life of Brian\'). ;)

I voted yes, but I personally would like to know the border at point 7:

Where do the commodities end and the speed begin?

So, are shortcuts for drinking potions allowed?
casting spells?

I know there is another thread discussing this issue, but I just want to get some information o this instead of distracting te main discussion again ...

that is for you and your opponent to decide, the rules have been edited slightly in the other thread, the ones here had to be left as is.

The Rangers of Yliakum shall follow these rules... For the most part... Tell me if anyone doesn\'t and I will handle it, and if I break them, tell Kallis...

Edit: And, eh, let\'s keep to a rule of ex post facto, k?

I really think that duels should be held in public...Now, I don\'t duel around people who are RPing, but if its one of those times where everyone is OOC, I feal free to do whatever I want...Therefore, adapting to your surroundings (RP/OOC) there should be a both option....

No one is supposed to be OOC ;) Not publicly, and not without clearly marking OOC text as such. And you\'re certainly not meant to use game functions for OOC purposes, as this is an RPG.
