The structure will go as follows:
4 USA representing players vs 4 Canada representing players (4v4) - 1 point
3 USA representing players vs 3 Canada representing players (3 v 3) - 1 point
2 USA representing players vs 2 Canada representing players (2 v 2) - 1 point
Another 2 USA representing players vs 2 Canada representing players (2 v 2) - 1 point
1 USA representing player vs 1 Canada representing player (1 v 1) - 1 point
Since Canada readers are involved, I'll do the math for them. There are a total of 5 points that you can achieve in which the team that scores 3 points wins the event. It should also be noted that every fight will have a reward for the winner plus a grand prize to the entire winning team of the "PVP Olympic" setting.
If Canada can't produce enough fighters (likely the case) I'd encourage other individuals to pretend to be Canadian for the brief duration of the fighting period to get a shot at awesome prizes.
I'm the captain for the USA team. I need someone to volunteer to be the captain for Canada (I'll give you a deed). It's the responsibility of the captains to host try-outs. If the turn out is awesome, then I'll add a slotted position for every individual for a total of 4+3+2+2+1+3 reserves for no shows = 15. If turn out sucks, we'll let individuals participate in mulitple fights.
I obviously don't play anymore, and neither does FT$ for the most part. Therefore, my old idea of liquidating all my stuff into gold and dispersing became pretty worthless(no one to give it to). Therefore, I'm using my resources to allow individuals to try out for either Canada or USA and use my resources to win gold and high end halberds after they make the team. This is free pvp with an opportunity to make a ton of gold on top of that.
What to expect when you try out and participate: a pouch with 10 trapped pouches in it, 125 each reg, 190 each greater heal reg, 40 stam pots and a keg in the arena if you need to hit it if you run out, and 2 fresh gm halberds.
I'll go over fight rules in an edited portion of this post later.
What you can expect if you win:
Plus 20 vanq halberds (I have 4 in inventory)
Plus 25 power Halberds (3 in inventory)
Plus 20 powers and plus 15 vanqs. (a ton in inventory)
House deeds
Someone please volunteer for Canada's captain position.
USA:
I'm going to put an ad up for recruitment soon, but I expect ahead of time for Ohm, Abyz, Lambo, Eo, Bongy, Kister, Tempest, Ric Flair (assuming you're not Canadian eww...), Matty, Malaikat, and Farnk to already have significant interest.
Post here for interest. I can't stress enough, "expense free event to earn awesome prizes."
---------------------------------
Edit 1
Current interest: Abyz, Menakuera (lol sorry about the mispell this list is based soley off memory), Woody, Malaikat, Ohm, Farnk, Hendrix, Ill Gates, Idocghost, Wiseone, Mirage (I think), Usual Suspect, and wrathofjo
Jay showed interest in being the Canadian Captain.
My next edit will present the procedures for trying out and the rules of the fights.
I'd like at least 5 more people to committ.
This will likely be the case.Mirage wrote:Should be USA vs all other countries.
Thanks ahead of time everyone!

Update:
---------------------------------------------------------------------Scienter wrote:Okay guys a quick update, I'll quote this on the main section.
If you're interested in trying out for Canada, then Jay is the individual to talk to. Jay, I'll send you a PM, but I made it a priority to give you resources for the try outs and your deed by tomorrow.
If you're interested in trying out for USA, then please let ME know by posting in the USA advertisement thread (Haven't made it yet, I want Canada to get a fair and reasonable opportunity to get their fair share of players)
I've been extremely busy the last few weeks, and it just started slowing down. With that in mind, my try out date is not going to be until early June. I play on hosting the actual fights mid June.
Jay is responsible for Canada, so he may be able to host try outs immediately, you'll have to get in contact with him. Jay I'll send you a PM with more information, but individuals interested, you will be scrutinized on a few areas of your pvp abilities with a 1 - 10 scale:
-Decision Making
-Halberd Cycling
-Positioning
-Healing ability (If you're trying out for a 2 v 2 team or a 4 v 4 team)
-Miscellaneous attributes (doesn't fit the other categories but is relevant)
I don't know how Jay will select is 1 v 1 player, but mine is going to be through judging you on these areas, and having the top members compete for it.
YOUR TEAM WILL GET A FREE PRACTICE!
After you make the cut, you'll be GIVEN resources to participate in a practice to tone your skills, work strategy, and whatever else you find necessary.
After both teams have selected their members and slotted them in, that information WILL BE DISCLOSED to the other team. It will make the practice more relevant. For example, if Ohm and Ragancy are on the same team for USA in a 2 v 2 and I know their going against Abyz and Farnk for Canada, As captain, I will provide a resources and allow Ragancy and Ohm to practice and discuss strategy or whatever.
If the amount of players is non-sufficient, then I'm going to cut an event or whatever I have to do to make this thing run smoothly. For example, if there are 9 players for each team, then I will probably cut out a 2 v 2 or something.
Expect my USA ad to come shortly and as always, Thank you.
Update:
The rules of the fights during the actual event:
-Standard red potions and GM weapons only.
-Reactive armour isn't allowed during the 1 v 1 fight.
-You can't recall (You would think I didn't have to mention that, but you'd be surprised...)
-Sudden Death, no healing at all or result is a disqualification.
-Begins after 8 minutes during the 1 v 1 fight.
-Begins after 10 minutes during the 2 v 2 fights.
-Begins after 12 minutes during the 3 v 3 fight.
-Begins after 14 minutes during the 4 v 4 fight.
-Regardless of insignificance of the heal, you will be disqualified. You will be notified of the times by the fight administrator (probably going to be me). A countdown will occur from 15 seconds.
-Example: If player one has 90 health during sudden death and player 2 has 4 health. If player one cast heal AND targets himself, he will be disqualified regardless of the immateriality of the heal.
Reactive armour will be allowed in the team fights.
Prizes are listed in other threads in addition to the halberd list on this one.
Thank you.
