TOURNAMENT X - THE CHILL OF WINTER

Winter has come, and with it comes another tournament inspired by players.  Commanders will rattle their sabers while soldiers rattle their bones in the dead of the winter cold.  Only the most tenacious of military strategists will claim victory!

This is an alliance-based, king-of-the-hill tournament that will run from the beginning of January to the beginning of February.  

We wish you all the best of luck!

The Tournament runs throughout the beginning of January to the beginning of February.  From one second into Saturday the 6th of January through to Midnight on Monday the 5th of February, any member of any alliance in occupation of these squares receives credit for holding the square.

Credit is based on the length of occupation of each square.  Time occupied by an alliance on each square counts towards the Alliance total. 

This credit is on an alliance basis - individual players cannot participate in this tournament.

You are not allowed to leave your alliance, or be kicked from your alliance while you have any armies present on one of the Tournament Squares.

All NAPs, Confeds etc are suspended for the duration of this tournament for any military interaction on the Tournament Squares.  The Peace of the Camp rule *will not work* on these Tournament Squares.

PRIZES

REGIONAL PRIZES

1) The alliance that holds each individual square for the longest period of time, (from 00:00:01 server time on Saturday 6th January to 23:59:59 on Monday 5th of February) is the Regional Winning Alliance.

Each member of a regional winning alliance who participated in combat on the winning square will receive Elementals, as well as a unique medal.  Units will be distributed to the winning players' capital city.

REGIONAL PRIZE: 4x Pure Fire Elemental, 4x Pure Water Elemental, 4x Pure Air Elemental, 4x Pure Earth Elemental, Regional Winner Medal.

GLOBAL PRIZES

1) All activity on these tournament squares in each region will also be aggregated, so the top 3 alliances that overall have the most amount of possession across all squares will be the Global Winning Alliances, ranked First, Second and Third.

2) This runs for the same period of time: (from 00:00:01 server time on Saturday 6th January to 23:59:59 on Monday 5th of Febuary)

3) All players that belong to the Global Winning Alliances who were involved in holding - and defending - that square (they must be involved in combat on the square at least once during the month) receive a Global Prize.

Global Prize, First Place: 16x Pure Fire Elemental, 16x Pure Water Elemental, 16x Pure Air Elemental, 16x Pure Earth Elemental, 1st Place Winner Unique Medal

Global Prize, Second Place: 12x Pure Fire Elemental, 12x Pure Water Elemental, 12x Pure Air Elemental, 12x Pure Earth Elemental, 2nd Place Winner Unique Medal

Global Prize, Third Place: 8x Pure Fire Elemental, 8x Pure Water Elemental, 8x Pure Air Elemental, 8x Pure Earth Elemental, 3rd Place Winner Unique Medal

No, as this is now dev-run rather than player-run, API keys are no longer required to participate.

Hey SC,
Thanks for running. A quick question.
Will armies that are sitting on the Sq now count when the tourney starts? It seems people are already loading up the tourney squares with armies ahead of time. If that is cool then the tourney really kind of starts now.
Best,
Ls

Armies that are on the squares when the tournament starts will certainly be counted - but their time in possession (that counts towards the winning total) will only count from the tournament start date (midnight this Friday) onwards.

Best,

SC

Anyone in or around Arran who needs a home to play in the tournament send me an IGM. We look forward to annoying the crap out of SkB (you guys could always join us if you like) again for the Arran square Evil Smile

I have only one suggested alteration. I am not saying that spy accounts are definitely happening, but they could be. Is there any way to remove the total number of units your alliance has on a square from the details page? Granted only in your alliance can see that, but the details page cannot differentiate between a spy acct and a player acct.

Why would you need to hide information from your own team?

Don't have alliance members who you can't trust. Problem solved.

Wow - reds under the bed ? 

Hiding your troop numbers from your own alliance - in a tournament - sounds a bit paraniod to me.

I feel like sending a scout is easier than sending an actual player as a spy xD

On a different topic, thank you again DEVs for doing this especially on such short notice! I realize it is simpler than some of the more elaborate tourneys you guys sometimes make, but it is still really fun! I hope we have more like this in the future. :)
