Magic Shop Duelling championship

After participating many duelling championships and considering the nature of duelling championships itself, I, Perlan proudly present:

The Magic Shop Duelling Championship

Background:

I stumbled one day on a platform in the winch, which I found very interesting and to my liking. Thoughts and visions about duelling went wild and ideas popped in my head. I reckoned this platform to be the utmost excellent place to hold a duelling championship of a different order than the normal preceding ones. Having carefully inspected this battlefield three things came to my attention:

1 The platform is above mid air and you can fall off
2 One big pillar and 4 smaller ones are on the platform
3 It is not a particularly big platform

Therefor this platform gives the opportunity to have a duelling championship of a different kind on. Having tested the platform, my conclusion is that duelling here will be a mix of normal duelling with "hide and seek" and the awareness of the very edges where you can fall off.

Due to various reasons and laws such a championship was not approved to be held.

That is why I needed a new location which is similar to the platform, to have a similar championship. So i thought and searched...
I remembered the higher ground next to the magic shop. I have tested it with people (my thanks for helping) and this particular piece of ground will be suitable for a similar Championshio, so we will hold it here!

This ground has also 2 particular things:

1 it is not big

2 you can fall off.. not a real spectacular fall off, but off is off .. hehe

That is why we hold it there.. for the similarity of the change in duel style 


Date and time:

The Magic Shop Duelling championship will be held on the following dates:

Friday 6th of February from 1900 hrs GMT
Saturday 7th of February from 1300 hrs GMT
Sunday 8th of Februry from 1300 hrs GMT

Duels will go on till very late at night since there will be many duels to be held, if due to any reasons not all duels can be held in that weekend remaining duels will be held at another time regarding the duellers and the time they can fight again


Classes and entry fees:

For this Duelling Championship there will be two classes, so many duel loving people can enter:

1 Amateurs

[Anyone having an endurance level above 100 can enter] Amateurs buy a ticket for 10,000 trias

2 Experts

[Anyone that has a weapon level above 60 and/ or armor level above 60] Experts buy a ticket for 25,000 trias

All participants will be scanned, tickets available from now and can be bought from me, Perlan


Price pool distribution is as followed for each class(amateur and expert):

First place: 60% of all entry fees

Second place 25% of all entry fees

Third place 10% of all entry fees


Duelling rules:

All weapons are allowed [that means people with an axe level of 150 can also use their axes if they like]
No magic allowed whatsoever
No killing allowed
No foul language   
No making out in public 
Any other misbehavior can result in disqualification as well
The duellers fighting each other will let the other know he/ she is ready by jumping once or twice
All duellers in their class will fight each other for two rounds. Falling off of the platform counts as a loss for that round.  Two wins = 3 points won, a tie = 1 point for each fighter, Two losses = 0 points
After all duels,  points will be counted, and first, second and third place will be made public


So, get your b*tt training and practicing, bring friends and come join or watch the Magic Shop Duelling Championship!

With regards, Perlan aka Perlyboy

[did someone copy and paste and forget to update part of the post??]

[perlyboy]

no, i didn't forget anything.. i decided to keep it there

[Donari Tyndale]

Lolz. You made my day.

And now for some constructive criticism or my post will get deleted:
PMing Xillix doesn't involve the Octarchy. And the Octarchy may pwn you if you decide to abuse it's name.

[zanzibar]

Having had various conversations with the Octarchy, the Octarchy first supported the idea , then forbid a championship in the winch...

Stop godmoding.  Thanks.

[perlyboy]

this is an announcement of a tournament, not meant as some discussion board on other things, please respect that

[dragnoor]

Well said..
Its just an announcement OOC for a tourney. Get a life sheesh.

IC - Nexus Devotees will be ready.

[Donari Tyndale]

It should be elsewhere then. In-game roleplay events is to be taken literal. And this event is clearly no roleplay, with Perlan godmodding on the Octarchy. It's actually a violation to the "In-game" part of this forum section. He sent a PM to Xillix and now claims the Octarchy rejected his tournament idea? Wow. I will send a PM to Xillix and tell everyone Xiosia rejected my idea for a slaughterfest in Hydlla. 

[Lafemme Elveness]

  Donari are you attending the championship...tis what this post is about!!! get of your high horse

[Parallo]

lol, events have to make sense, Lafemme. There is no high horse here.

[Sktn]

to Tyndale:
this is called intolerance, plain and simple.
bacause can't just you ignore us if this post is not for your kind of play just move along, this ain't harming your playing style, you can go continue doing it and
i never understood why people do that of getting in the middle of things they're not for them, just with the idea of hinder or block all the attemps to make something; a duel event
is also an event and this respects the settings framework

btw: freedom is what matters, is live and let live, too bad you've missed the second part of the phrase

my english is bad, sorry for it and sorry for not being as enough fluent on it to explain better my idea in this isue

[Mathy Stockington]

perlyboy is trying to make a player event here. The players should not make it hard for him to do it, rather help him make it a success. I cannot help but wonder if Proglin had such a hard time when he planned his events.

We need more player participation. This will help with role play of which is severely lacking these days. I suggestion if something posted is incorrect give ideas on how it can be improved so that it will work, be positive. The idea is that we are playing a game together yet we always seem to rip all good ideas apart without giving good solutions to resolve it. It is time to have fun and stop making it so difficult to do new things in game. Maybe some rules need to be bent a bit or maybe they need to be rethought all together. Maybe this game is getting to complicated. To many rules can make it or break it.

perlyboy should be applauded for trying.

[Arerano]

What a great idea. it's the best idea I stumbled upon (beside the Winch Duelling Championship).
I am sure Levrus loves the idea too.

Ok, irony aside:
You can compare it to an announcement of some "fighting tournament" (with guns) in a shoe store without asking the owner first but simply assuming that they will like it.
What will you propose next? The Tavern? The Secret Garden? The Iron Temple? (just imagine slaying each another inside a church, I am sure the priest will be "surprised")

I obviously misread a part of it.

[Parallo]

Proglin never had difficulty asides organisation as he was always IC.

[Mathy Stockington]

Parallo if you knew how Proglin put together such great events maybe you can tell us so that it can be done again.
Even Zorbels asked for this once before http://www.hydlaaplaza.com/smf/index.php?topic=33776.0

Thank you.
