Deathmatch in Wine SATURDAY OCT 12, 7 PM EST

[____________Halfdeck]

Thanks for showing up last Saturday, the 1st place prize was 81.5 million credits, the highest ever. Grats to Abid/Morrizon and Cudus/Fyrestarter for second. I've gotten some requests to "mix it up a little" so today I'm going to try a different format for the Deathmatch: 2 ppl team FFA. I'm going to hold it in a building in Wine, instead of Hope. Inside there are 2 levels, stairs, rooms you can hide in, and corners you can use to avoid shots. Basically you walk go inside with a team of two. Everyone spreads out, and after count down, its FFA. The deathmatch ends when all but one team is eliminated.


TOURNEY INFO:

if i dont have a partner can i show up and team up with others?

[Letah]

Turned out to be a little other then expected.

The mobs were too many in the zone and while it was meant to be team vs teams it was the mobs vs us Mobs win 1-0! Since that wasnt really fun we decided to do old fashioned 2vs2 till theres a winner.

Pat and Johi brought up a nice duel and so did many others, thanks for the honourable duels against me (Firerose) and georg

Would be nice if a GM or something can clean the cave, hope that will be possible.

Agh, you posted this a little late...Only one i've missed so far. :/

Is the 'no two professions' thing new? I remember going alone vs two atrox traders... (Spaxz and Gatorojo)

[georg]

The beginning was abit of a hassle, ( hello building full of clan mobs ;D ) but then it was decided to just do a 2vs2 in a building nearby which worked quite well

In the end a nice event, never tought a soldier/doc combo could do that well

[____________Halfdeck]

This one unfortunately turned out to be a big fiasco. First, the mobs in the building just made a mess of things. Trying the 2nd bracket FFA in a small room didn't work out either -- it basically forced an omni vs clan fight, giving the outnumbered side a huge handicap (in this case clan).

Also, I had a guildie coming to help me run the event, but unfortunately she got locked out of the game for 2 hours, and with the huge turnout last night, it was just more than a handful for me to run the event solo.

Once we switched back to 2v2 format, things went much smoother though. Thanks to Johiyat for helping me run brackets (took a load off me). Also thanks to people like Patk9, Tolbat, Halofire, Rznr, and others that backed me up when things were getting a bit out of hand Congratulations to Firerose / Georg for 1st place, Bitzcan/Heroses for 2nd, and Patk9/Johiyat for 3rd.

Next one will be 2v2 in Wine. I want to see someone win over 100 mil next weekend (record's at 82 mil)

That's what I call guts Didn't you kill one of the traders?

The rule was added on after that tourney, to make things less predictable. Interesting to note though, that trader/soldier combo beat the trader/trader team in that tourney in the finals.

Yea, lol...mochams rrf and essence help

Snaring the whole bar before i die though is always a good way to go out in a bang lol

The most devastating combo seems to be doc/trader, though..

[________________Abid]

Isn't the combo that always wins the Abid and _____ combo?
