un: fandaniel >> telophoroi's first annual pvp tournament~

[trollophoroi]

Greetings, my fellow beta testers! It's been quite a busy first month here in Fragment, has it not?

Well, prepare for it to get a tiny bit busier! Because now that Lumina Cloth and its arenas are open, I am working towards our very first PVP tournament! Strictly above the board, I swear, all done in the arenas and everything.

Our dear Zelkova has even volunteered to create some unique prizes for all entrants as well as the finalists! Of course, I would also be absolutely beside myself with cheer if our other admin, ~@ hien~, would grace our little tournament as a guest announcer alongside yours truly~

Anyway! Interested? Want to know more? Let me know in the post!

That said, I will be traveling abroad for several days soon but will do my best to answer questions here on the forum when I can. But! I shall most certainly be back by the time the tournament begins.

( ooc: and be sure to check out the actual OOC post and sign-up over here! )

a pvp tourney??
wait
is this bait for the head admin lol

[trollophoroi]

Hmmm consider it more like as a

peace offering? I suppose?

I know he enjoys fighting quite a lot but is unable to participate due to being an administrator rather than a regular player. The very least I can offer is a front-row seat to everyone else slaughtering one another~

[dissimulative]

and make him jealous that he cant get in on the action??
thats so funny

[trollophoroi]

And here I thought I was trying to do something nice for a beloved guildmate and you go and make it sound sinister.

[dissimulative]

is it really sinister
it sounds like your MO tho




wait
he joined your guild??
why???

[trollophoroi]

You have got me there!

[ It's definitely his MO but Oria's only got part of the plan. ]

But yes! He did!

I sent him an invite on a whim and he accepted. You would have to ask him regarding why he would do such a thing~

[dissimulative]

he banned me
bc i laughed at yael saying that hien was dating the ceos daughter
lol
no thanks!!
i dont wanna talk to him

[ah, it's the guy who tried to PK him and got flattened with his stop sign in return.

strange...still no guilt...]

is it really in the arena?

[trollophoroi]

[ Oho, it's that frightened little Vogel fellow. ]

Would you prefer we hold it in the back alleys of Lumina Cloth instead? A no holds barred free-for-all?

I believe you would do well in that, Vogel. I wonder how many kills you would rack up~

[insinning]

[ughughughugh

He doesn't normally dislike people but something about this guy reminds him of bad memories]

I didn't say that.

And I don't think that's true either.

[trollophoroi]

No, no you did not, and yet! It would be an amusing idea!

But no. It truly is in the arena. I doubt Zelkova would have offered prizes if I were trying anything outside the accepted boundaries of "official" PVP areas. That said, I do hope you sign up and show us that same creativity with PKing as you did in our little fight~

[insinning]

I really wasn't trying to PK you with that stop sign...

[trollophoroi]

And yet you did.

It was hilarious.

[insinning]

[mentally keysmashing ]

I'm glad you found it funny.

Is there a required level participants you'd prefer players to be at before they can sign up and participate?

[trollophoroi]

Any level will do! The arena we are using for the fights is set to either raise or lower levels of whoever enters it to the current cap.

In this case, 25.

[fatalitea]

Oh! So everyone will be on an even playing field regardless of what level you normally are outside of this tournament!

That's good, then: I'm not caught up just yet to the current level cap, so I was concerned about whether or not it would be a good idea to participate.

[trollophoroi]

Precisely! Low level, high level, mid-level, it matters not! You will be on an even playing field with everyone else. The rest will be up to you~

So please, do sign up. It is worth it for the entrant prize alone. They are quite cute little skins if you plan on raising Grunty.

[fatalitea]

That is certainly enticing!

In that case, I think I will consider giving it a try. Thank you for letting me know about this!

[She may not be a fan of people PKing each other whenever it involves someone doing it to another player without asking, but... trying out combat against another player in a tournament with rules should be fine...]

[worldbent]

Well, well.

Now that we're all getting a bit stronger, it's the perfect opportunity to test out the game's balance properly, isn't it? Personally, I'm excited for this.

s'all good

[trollophoroi]

Always excellent to hear. A pity I doubt I'll have the energy to run this for every new level cap.

But I assume you will, of course, be signing up? The more the merrier, after all~

[worldbent]

Of course. I couldn't let waste an opportunity to test our class's progress in ranking with the others, hm? It will be interesting to see how the class tierlist shakes out after this tournament.

By the way, has Hien-kun given you an answer yet? Would be a shame for our dear babysitter to miss out on the carnage.

[trollophoroi]

I feel that the pure melee DPS classes may have the upper hand at 25 but we shall see.

Hien? He has not but I know he enjoys PVP, so I feel the odds of him making an appearance for it are in my favor. Why do you ask?

[worldbent]

You're probably right! Right now, our HP is basically still a dream, haha.

You're right, but he seems like quite the contrarian. So I was wondering if he'll really show up, even if you call him out like this....

[trollophoroi]

Part of it, I suspect, will be to make sure I'm not up to anything shady again.

I imagine everyone else is wondering the same and yet! I doubt Zelkova would have offered to create the prizes if that were true. (:
