Kingdoms: Monthly Spar Tournament

Supaman771 · #1 06-28-2013, 05:54 AM

So you think you're the strongest Graal Kingdoms player?
Prove it.

Beginning Saturday, July 6th, the stage will be set for players across all kingdoms to come and prove that they're the finest swordsman on the server... at least until next month.

Info:
These will be bracket style 1v1 spars, with matches randomized among those who wish to participate. Single elimination, until one player remains.

Prizes are yet to be determined, though the first place winner will be sure receive something unique for the duration of their reign as the Monthly Champion.

(Hopefully) Following this trend, we will host a spar tournament on the first Saturday of every month.

That's about it, will update with exact time/prizes when decided.

Great event, so now I'll have to proof myself every month =[

seanthien · #4 06-28-2013, 02:20 PM

It's about time I show the world my true swordsmanship.

Conqueror · #5 06-28-2013, 03:07 PM

Oh man-- I'm excited for this!

seanthien · #6 07-03-2013, 03:11 PM

Is this still happening? There's no time that's been set, nor rules, or anything. I'd like to know more.

Conqueror · #7 07-03-2013, 03:41 PM

Can no longer make it-- have to help set up my sister's baby shower. Uncle Conq?

BigBear3 · #8 07-03-2013, 04:13 PM

tired of owning you all, sorry

Haven't forum-ed for a couple days opps.
Cannot edit OP v.v

22:00 servertime. You'll be able to subscribe via PM from 21:00. So, be on a bit early for me to get your accounts to set up the bracket.

The same rules as your average spar event. You can HP/Cast any resists you want prior to your turn (I'll probably PM you the round before you so you can get ready), but no scrolling/leaves/potions/etc. once you're inside the arena.

Prize is a surprise, since I don't know what it is yet.

NicoX · #10 07-03-2013, 09:16 PM

1st Prize: Speed Boots
2nd Prize: Ring of War
3rd Prize: 15 Event Coins

Event will start with a minimum of 12 fighters.

seanthien · #11 07-03-2013, 09:21 PM

Is it melee only spar? Magic? Best of 1?

Melee means no bows?

I'm only saying this so people don't go into the event confused and having it being chaotic. If it's said in the event thread then people can't say anything or argue back.

Sweet prizes! But yeah, 18 doesn't divide evenly. It's either 16 or 32 if everyone is to fight the same amount of spars.

This.

That was the issue last time, when I allowed 18 and I had to do some crazy stuff to balance the bracket.

Supaman771 · #35 09-07-2013, 08:48 PM

Results for the September Monthly Spar:

1st Place: Conqueror
2ed Place: IXIs_Last_Stand
3rd Place: Jcs1919

See you all next month!

seanthien · #36 09-08-2013, 12:36 AM

hmph. last months champ wasn't allowed to participate. EDIT - Well I didn't make it in time..but still! I was literally like 5 minutes late.

Assuming GK last til next year, and this thread's still alive, every winner of a monthly spar should face off in a yearly tournament.

I literally waited like 15 minutes (because I was eating) and messaged you privately. If you got there before I sparred you could've had my spot.

But unbalancing the bracket is obnoxious, and joining late is unfair. So

I wish I got this private message.

Congrats to the winners!

Supaman771 · #39 10-04-2013, 07:04 PM

The Monthly Spar will be held tomorrow!! (10/5)
(sorry for the late post, but after 4 months you should be aware already!)

Be there!
