Red Event Ideas

Guide.Chroma · #1 07-23-2015, 05:12 PM

So I'm looking to see what the Red community thinks is fun in terms of events. I know it's something you've been sore for.

There is one big stipulation, and that is I'm limited in what I can do for you guys. I can't do much more than organise and adjudicate events. I can summon players...and that's about as deep as it gets. I can't give out items/rewards, nor make custom mobs or any of that nonsense. It's possible that I can be given items to use as rewards, but ultimately it's out of my hands.

I want ideas that are inside those limits. Whether it's an organized tourney, setting up team fights, or some hunger games (I hate using that analogy, but there isn't a better way to illustrate) shit in a small zone.

No promises obviously, but I wanted to put feelers out there and see what ideas the community was holding onto.

INB4 you bring up a suspension, petition, or other nonsense that isn't related to the question at hand. If you feel that strongly, send me a PM and don't shit up my thread.

I like what I'm seeing. I do want to ask what items should be disallowed? I'm not 100% familiar with EQ pvp, mostly just looks like squirrels on crack trying to hump a swarm of ants to me.

Also, if people want to invest in their community and offer prizes for events of their own creation I am glad to facilitate that as well.

BotB tourneys without retarded ass classic rules.

Test of Tactics

3v3 and 5v5 skirmishes.

nothing fancy required. Just good ol GM sanctioned pvp.

Can you enforce duels for character deletion?

If not, I'm out of ideas sorry.

Legit non-trolling question Chroma:

Do you have name change powers, i.e. giving out titles? Especially this late in Kunark that would likely be the best possible reward you could give.

Wipe all the mobs out of Qeynos Aqueducts. Summon players there for a solo last man standing game. Since it's indoors, no bard BS but has plenty of hiding opportunities and is an interesting zone.

Winner gets title "the Shit Lord" and checks his privileges. Call the event, "Shit's Classic."

I'm someone with a green name paying attention to your server. I'm also going to be stopping in daily to clear petitions, now that some RL bars have been lifted.

I have the ability to change names (I cannot and will not change first names, surnames are at our discretion and require you and the GM/Guide to be online at the same time), but I don't know if I'm allowed to create titles. My best guess is that they would have to be surname based titles, but I'm requesting clearance so we'll see.

I could kill the mobs, but I couldn't keep them from spawning. I'd also have to manually go through and kill them individually unless the kill command takes an * argument to slay the fuck out of the zone.
