YCRO PvP Tournament

Post by Yoon »

Hey everyone, what's up?

Tarquin suggested that we should throw a PvP Tournament on the YCRO Practice Server. It would be available to all Y-Corner members, including former/current DT/Forgotten/WTF players, as well as former/current players from qRO, LRO, and RaijeRO that would be interested in participating in the tournament. This would be fun, as it would be kind of like a guild reunion, especially for all the members that are no longer playing with the guild or have quit RO altogether (like me).

If we do throw a tournament, PvP rules will be similar to the restrictions that were set on servers like qRO and LRO.

RULES:

* PvP rules will be similar to those set on old qRO and LRO servers.
* Stats will be restricted to legal limits. Characters using artificial stat boosts using GM commands will not be allowed.
* Level max is 99. Tournament applicants will be given the opportunity to get a LV 99 character with the job skill level maxed to legal limits. Characters past the legal level limit (100+) will not be allowed.
* All characters / accounts will be deleted prior to the tournament. This will be done to prevent the use of heavily stat modified (non-legal) characters.
* Stat modifier commands like "@str/@agi/@int/@dex/@luk/@lvlup" will be disabled during the tournament.
* GM commands like "@heal", "@summon", etc. that would interfere with PvP matches will be disabled during the tournament.
* MVP cards will not be allowed.

Of course, these rules are not set in stone, but if anyone has any good ideas for a PvP tournament on YCRO, feel free to post it in this thread! What do you guys think? Should a PvP tournament be held on YCRO? Vote now!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE (6/6/2009): Alright, the tournament matches have been set. Since there were only five PvP applicants, the match setup is a little bit uneven, since there will be two BYEs.

Here are the matches:

Match 1: Loki vs. Nevermind = Nevermind wins by default.
Match 2: Guhosutsubenu vs. Snapsi = Snapsi wins by default.
Match 3: Hadvi vs. BYE (No Match) = BYE
Match 4: BYE vs. BYE (No Match) = BYE
Match 5: Nevermind vs. Hadvi = Nevermind wins by default.
Match 6: Snapsi vs. BYE (No Match) = Snapsi wins by default.
Match 7: Nevermind vs. Snapsi = Snapsi wins.

FINAL WINNER: Snapsi

UPDATE (6/25/2009): Just a reminder, the re-scheduled tournament is this Sunday, at around the old qRO time (5PM Central Time)! Combatants will be given a limited amount of healing items per match.

Yeah, there might be a limit set on refining higher level equipment, but refining lower level equipment like Composite Bows, Blades, etc. to max will be acceptable. As far as mini-boss cards, they may or may not be banned in PvP, depending if people want to have them in or not.

Like I said, the rules are not set in stone and can be set to what people generally want.

Awesome! Just 1 thing, certain Miniboss cards like Deviling and Ghostring are pretty powerful, in my opinion those should be restricted? Possibly restrict the refine rate of expensive stuff like Valkyrie Armors (just imagine a +10/+7 Valkyrie Armor!).
In any case, I'm in!

As a lot of people seem to be interested in doing a PvP tournament on YCRO, I think it's safe to say that the tournament is a go ahead.

I will start up another thread shortly about when we should hold this tournament.

EDIT: Vote in this thread: viewtopic.php?f=17&t=1665&start=0

YCRO PvP Tournament: Select a Date!

Post by Yoon »

Since the voices have spoken and the demand for a PvP tournament is high, it is safe to say that the tournament will indeed happen. The next big question is when it should be held. Select the available date(s) that you think the tournament should be held on. Unfortunately, I will be travelling on the first and third weekends of May, so those options have been omitted.
