Casual players are dead meat in tournaments, have little chance to get a Demi at auction, and I don't know the odds of finding a Demi, since I still have not seen one. Maybe one day you will give everyone the same opportunity to have Demi's.


Its a tournament, casual players shouldn't enter into it, as you clearly stated it requires activity.

Cant wait for the next Arena, I enjoyed playing in this one.

Greetings! Its been a very very long day Calibretto! :smt021

I think a team deathmatch would be a great idea but i'd like it to be random team tournament so you basically get grouped and team a fight team b, team c fight team d, winner fights winner fights winner rinse repeat. However, quite costly in server and manpower time (teams would have to be evenly balanced by Sol before play commences). That being said i would gladly pay something like an entry fee (i'm not going to say publically what i would spend as it would be rude). I'd definately pay, though.

Greetings my friend :D , I really had a lot of fun untill now. Anyway, if it would become a teamdeathmatch it should be free for alliances or another setup. Its really cool and I like it.

Teamdeathmatch: more winners, more prizes, really exciting as is this tournament.

Its funny how I noted people play/talk. Its all like:

Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.... :roll: :smt081

Wait..I can explain.. :smt017

Anyway, this is my first time in the tournament. Its awesome.

Unfortunately i'm doing 2nd year engineering parallel to upholding ascended, I don't exactly have the free time on my hands like I did during the end of year days.

The idea of the tournament was to have a fast paced hit of fun, that still lets people compete (insert realm alert/ phasing here), can't forget when someone logs in they fully unphase themselves. The whole main and ascended (and basically everything admin makes) are about taking your time, slow paced evolution etc and all that bullcrap, there needed to be a time when you would actually stay up and plow through the night like you used to during wars on main, and a place where skill and tactics were brought back in, similar to how main used to be. After all this is a turn based game, what is it without tactics?
So i made the tournament, a durable field of play. I won't change the game play in the tournament until the base form is as straight as a die, but I was flipping up between two styles for the next gameplay change in the tournament, 1 was the whole tag team/ partner deal, and the other was a sort of zombie/infection spreading dealio.

And for those people that **Filtered** about not having the time for the tournaments; there will be more, we have had 3 already, so you are bound to jump in on one.

Awesome. I for one am very very grateful Sol.
