Ghengas

calm down guys, im just trying to make it work for everyone. the rules are as last stated, including my last post about summoning. i am making no rules about rings, spells, magic armor, weapons, etc etc.... war is meant to be brutal and unpredictable - why take away what makes it fun? mufo - it couldnt be easier to moniter summon stone usage, do you even read posts before you bash them? hopefully you can all harness your anger from this thread and put it into your fighting during the contest i am now collecting the entry fees, once they are all paid i will schedual the even. all teams will be final on tuesday, if you plan on entering do so before then. you cannot pay the entry fee on the day of the event, if you pull out of the event after paying you will not be refunded and your fee will stay in the pot. All rules are completely final as last stated by mestarting right now, so stop asking me to change them. =)

anything they summon will have there guild tag attached to it, if there are stones used during a fight between two teams from the same guild only one of the teams summons would have any tags attached to it as 1 of the teams will have to leave the guild to fight

pookies i already did that, we got a dont care, a yes, and a no. luci, it displays a (*) so-so summoned a one eyed purple people eater message when you summon something in the normal style, there is no (*) when you use a summon stone. edit: sorry mufo, meant luci

alright, the .6 issue has been cleared up, the only remaining problem is with summoning so heres the final deal on the matter: -standard summoning WILL be permitted, monsters with the strength of tigers and lower ONLY -summoning stones will NOT be permited at all comprende?

no, toomass said his team would drop is summoning is NOT allowd, apparantly either way a team is going to pull out knuckles - im taking you off the team then as requested

*sigh* mufoss i understand the difference allowing summoning makes, it gives a huge advantage to larger teams, i originally did not include any rules about summoning and then when it occured to me that some people may want to summon during the contest i added that it was against the rules. some players asked me about it in game so i decided to have the competitors decide. it is very clear to me that the *CO* team has voted no, and that you are against it whether your in the contest or not. i've just pmed Toomass ingame and he says that if summoning is not allowd his team will not be entering the contest, so apparantly either way we are losing an entered team, and it puts our votes at 1 team for yes, 1 team for no, and 1 team that doesnt care. unless you are officially in a team i cannot count your vote.

im sorry mufo, im just trying to make the contest fair and make it so the people enterint the contest are happy. as i already said, the reason for the vote is to allow the competitors to decide. if they vote no, there will be no summon stones allowd. if they vote no and ask not to allow any summons at all, no summons will be permitted at all. if you plan on competing in one of the entered teams but havent said so yet, just vote no. your vote counts as much as anyones =) EDIT: mufossa if you would be so kind as to read the bold print next to the teams whos credit value comes to 100.6 and the post i made about it after you objected i would be very appreciative =).

MOST people only entered because summons werent allowed, I WILL bet that if you allow summons HALF the teams drop mufo if your not going to enter plz stop spamming the contest this is the reason i am allowing the teams to vote, if teams dont want summon stones there will be none, if they do, we will allow them.

registered team members please vote for or against the use of summoning stones by posting a YES or NO below.

read the bold print next to their team, same goes for ANY team. it is a design flaw on my part, not bending the rules because pookies helped come up with the idea for the contest. In EL my guild is enemies with pookies, we talk over pm sometimes but there is no big conspiracy or w/e. 2 top, 1 middle, and 1 low is a balanced and fair team.

posting this in a new reply to get the topic hot again, the current registered teams are: 1. CZE team: Toomass (33.3), Holar (14), joe (14), joskic (14), caesarek (14) = 89.3 PAID 2. *CO* team: luciferx (33.3), EvilGeorge (14), morabelon (14) [open spots to be announced ASAP] PAID 3. PkG team: pookies (33.3), Hades (33.3), Quimbly (33.3) = 99.9 4. \A/ team: Zamirah (33.3), Lorck (33.3), ohmygod (33.3) = 99.9 PAID 5. [NL] team: Ambrosius (33.3), Siarato (33.3), Bloodsoaked (33.3) = 99.9 PAID PM Ghengas ingame or post here to sign up! once entry fees are paid we will schedual the contest and i'll post an itinerary. !!!!!pay your entry fee to Ghengas in game and NOONE else!!!!! anyone else who asks to collect it is a scammer =o

i'm sorry zen i forget about my encyclopedia sometimes u still want those FEs? EDIT: there are no noobs in gwar -_-

i like this idea i also like the idea of crafting CoL/CoM to have a small chance of creating an enhanced version of the crown's standard attributes, for ex a CoL that had a chance to heal you in reasonably large amounts on hit (like that blue staff, i think you mentioned that) or that had a +200 hp bonus instead of 150, and a CoM that has a small chance to add the amount of mana used rather that subtract it, or a very small chance to completely restore your mana (would be nice as no summoner likes sitting for 10 minutes waiting on SR cooldown )

~le~ has pulled out of the contest due to lack of interest in the community apparantly so has PkG, toomass signed up for a CZE team.

I dont mean this in a disrespectful way BUT you are wrong......a little guild called DiE! mabye you heard of them? anyway they used to fight me when i was Much higher A/d then they were and they were able to win, they were VERY strategic ...they would fight me either 1v1( or 3v1 sometimes they loose sometimes they win BUT Nienora proved to be a VERY good strategist Even 1v1 against a much stronger person....so that just goes to show U R WRONG you dont need to break the contest into clases to have it fair ..summon stones/magic armour and various weapon help even out the odds exactly =D, i think i even remember having mufo in my kill counter back when i was in DIE! from fighting u w/ dushan/wexy/etc... good times and exvitermini...we arent looking for a huge # of guilds to join, i would be ecsatic if we got 6 or 8 teams.... thats a 180-240k pot which isnt to shabby, even split between 3-7 people

dont you get tired of having the same old contest over and over? we all know who the strongest individuals are, this contest is designed to force stragetic fighting.. a team of 7 90+ a/d people may or may not be about to take out 3 120+ a/d people. hopefully at least a few more teams will sign up so we can have a contest that consists of more than watching two top players heal themselves over and over until one of them runs out of HE =)

i just edited in the final contest details, we are now taking entries again

please feel free to post suggestions for changes in rules, team size, etc

hey, xero is my EL bro and fagin is xero's RL bro, they were IP banned from EL and the forums. Xero says the reason for his EL ban was that his brother was training on his own character while xero's character sat afk harvesting which was apparantly mistaken for multiplaying even though they were not interacting and are owned by two different people. He does not know the reason for his forum ban but he says it is an ISP ban and we suspect that a certain thread on the forums about hiding IPs was posted by someone in xero's town..at least i think thats what he was saying, the kids english could use work xero and his bro are both underage and live outside the US, they cannot get ISP emails or w/e those are or use paypal. Xero is a dedicated player in the EL community and i think he deserves to have his char back

:/ idk fagin other than that he is xero's RL bro, xero is the one who asked me to help out and he doesnt seem to be any more aware of fagin's behaviour than i am, is there any way xero can be whitelisted with fagin still banned? he really misses EL :/ EDIT: if it helps, ive known xero since he was 20+ a/d and he has never let his brother play actively on his char

rofl

yes this is what i was suggesting lol.. yeah thats what i'm talking about, what i mean is that adding dual daggers the same way gloves are now would mean daggers would not -need- a new animation, two downward facing daggers would look really cool with the standard boxing animation. i'm not very experienced with this sort of thing but it seems that it should be -extremely- easy as for dual wielding a sword and a dagger, that just doesnt seem very practical... it would be like baking a chicken in the toaster even though you have an oven...

exactly, you could simply make an item as if it were gloves but shaped like two daggers, nothing would have to be changed or added to the game mechanics at all.

or instead of adding new dagger stances and changing game mechanics blah blah you could make the game handle dual knives/daggers with no shield or sword as it handles gloves, they are dual by defualt and only take up 1 slot but you cant put a shield or sword on while they are equipped, if they were facing downward it would look really cool with the normal boxing animation, kicking and all, and they would basically just be gloves with alot of hitting power (and a skin that looked like hands holding knives, not wearing gloves .. )

as some may know i just started playing EL again this week but I'm having some issues i didnt used to have that are causing my computer to freeze, EL isnt just effing itself up but actually freezing my computer to where i have to unplug it its really wierd considering my comp has never frozen before for any reason.. i play a few other games, most of which are much more demanding than EL, and dont have this problem with them. when i start EL i have the message that says my graphics card meets the default requirements for the next EL release and i'm assuming that if its up to date enough for that it should be fine now. the freezing usually happens in crowded places and turning eye candy off doesnt seem to help much, i know its a graphic problem though because it doesnt happen when my console or map is opened. plx help and ty
