Martial Arts Tournament (To the Death)

[Alix]

Hello All

My name is Lucyan in game and I am trying to become more involved with the community and add some player made content. Back in live, precu, I organized a Martial Arts Tournament and it did so well I had over 20 fights going on at 1 time with a ladder tournament build. The best thing about it is... it was to the death AND the winner received either a specialty item or a large cash prize. I am going to try and organize one and hope this does as well as it did in live. The info Is listed below along with the rules and requirements.

Tournament Requirements:
- No armor
- Weapons of your art will be provided, equal and mid range
- Buffs will be provided, no food, drink or spices
- Stim b's will be provided (only 5 / match)
- You will receive a combat uniform to wear for the battle, no sea's
- 100,000 Credit buy-in, Winner takes all format (if this is too much let me know)
- Be prepared to be death blown
- Any melee prof combos are valid but it is advised that you are full spec

Tournament Rules:
- Round length is 10 min. You win when either you incap your opponent 3 times in 10 min resulting in death, or have the least amount of incap's within the 10 min (please note, if you lose you die, so if you only incap twice to your opponents 1 and the 10 min is up, you must honorably kneel and let your opponent take your life. (in the case of a tie , additional time is awarded (5 min) and who ever incaps within that time will be db's by the "winner".
- In the case of a true tie, the crowd will vote Caesar Styles
- No fighter will be allowed to leave the fight area (no running away), if you go out of bounds intentionally, you will be rewarded with death.
- Any use of items, sea's, buffs, food or spices out side of what is given, you will be disqualified and sentenced to death.
- Matches will be chosen ahead of time and there will be a total of 16 fighter spots (this number can increase if there is a bunch of people want in), first come first serve (register here) If you cannot make it, please give ample notice so that a new fighter can be contacted, you will not get your credits back, it will go to the short notice fighter.
- SOMEONE MUST DIE EACH MATCH!! if you do not agree with this, do not sign up.

Ticket Sales
- Spectators are not required to buy tickets to this event but it is encouraged due to what is needed for an event like this to take place. When you show up there will be a ticket collector, tip what you feel is fair.

Things I Need to make this happen
- Guild/City Sponsor. If your city is interested in housing the event you will need to be able to provide the following. A 4 match fighting area with 20 square meters per fight map that are adequately outlined. A shuttle port. A cantina, and chairs for spectators. The city rep that offers the sweetest arrangement will get the event,
- I will need a 100% Dancer/Musician (100,000 credit pay)
- I already have a doctor in mind so no worries on that.
- 4 referee's to monitor time and incaps
- anyone else that wants to have fun with this can dance for tips, hand out food and drink for tips ect.


Prize Structure
- Winner takes all, or, if agreed by the 2 finalists 70 - 30 split ( if 16 players fight, prize pool is 1.2 mill if 100k is the buy in)
- Door prizes will consist of AA's and CA's and Cash prizes
- There will also be a mini lottery that will be available on site
- Gambling is encouraged!!! I will work on a bookie structure



I really really realllllyyy hope that this can become something that happens on a bi-weekly basis. Once I have the pieces in play, a time and date will be issued.

WELCOME TO " MORTAL COMBAT AWAKENING"

This looks very exciting! I'll definitely be there if possible!

[StepoKedur]

It could be interesting! As long as it's not seen as a type of fightclubbing, and the few (potential) kills should make it nowhere near fightclubbing it should be really cool. I would however drop the enrty fee a tad, and maybe give the top 4/5 places some reward. They do that in F1 anyway!

I do like the sound of it though

[tarnwar]

I will be there.

Strongly depends on time/date, but Turrk's interested.

amazing guys, ill start the process

[Drakathos]

There is a few potential problems I see in this.

How would you prevent people from using their own food/drinks? If someone uses their own weapon instead, that could perhaps be calculated with a formula but i dont think there's a way to prevent people from using for an example dodge food becouse theres no outside information for this.

And wouldnt Master Fencer / Master Brawler / Master Pistoleer be pretty much I win template..

Well first off, I would hope that the honesty policy would take effect and that the community that we play in are not cheaters. Second, how much medic would you have with that profession? As for the weapons, they will be provided and again, honour. If you would like to test your template, please sign up for the 100k buy in and test your might.

Second, I am please to announce that the tournament will be held in Sundari, on Talus and being designed by the guild members of Protean Enterprises(PRTN). Thank you very much to the members of PRTN.

As for further posts. All of your opinions are valid to me but please send me a private message to help.
