Events idea - anything concerning guild or server events

Hello everyone!

As you may have read in the officer meeting thread, we have discussed that we want to be very active on our future server scene by organising social events/ fun contest, such as deathmatches tournement.
I propose to gather all ideas inthis thread. Don't be affraid to post an incomplete idea, or something you may find a bit "stupid", any ideas are good to take as they might inspire another idea.



I just got a event idea : BAM Kill Race

We gather several teams of 4 persons. We try to balance them nicely, and we impose gear restrictions (we will inspect them). Each team that will compete will have to kill a BAM as fast as possible.
How it would work?
Let's take the example of Basilics (lvl 20 BAM). We have 6 teams that compete in the same time. Others are watching, waiting they turn. Each team is accompanied by a Whitestar member that will serve as referee and that will not help to kill the BAM. On ventrilo we agree to pull in the exact same time, and we start the countdown. The team that has made the best score will win. We can add bet, or inscription fee to add a reward for the winners.

This could be nice. But to inspect and have 24 peeps with the same gear level could prove to be a challenge.

Considering Tera is all about action, i propose that this BAM timer kills should be done naked (other than the weapon). The weapon would have to be an unenchanted non enigmatic weapon of the tier of the levels we are facing. For lvl 20 i think its tier 4. This way its a fun and challenging event and it will ease on the balance of each group. (tbh i am not sure if its totally viable, with no armor everyone might get one shoted, but then again who said all the groups have to finish )

Another event idea :


Hide and Seek Outlaws
The event will happen in the Fairy Woods. X Outlaws (arround lvl 25) will hide in the Forest and beeing searched by team of lvl 12-16 players. - The Outlaws can not team up, and the teams can not group together. Once a Outlaw had been killed, he is eliminated. Team players, however can resurect and join the fight again.
The team that eliminated the most Outlaws win the game.

This event is a bit PVEpvp game. Outlaws serve as "bosses" that can hide and run away. But they drop no loot, sorry!

As we are the organisation team, we will not play (unless we need more players). However, we will stream and Fraps the event. We could be several streamers. Example : Majiin, Klaudyna, and I are streaming. We all follow a different team, and as we are communicating on ventrilo, we can switch the stream where the action is. Someone dedicated to the chat exclusively, could take in charge to answer the viewers.



Comments and ideas are very welcome. (BTW, thanks for your Correction Ricardo)
We will choose one event to organise at the end of the first week release, aka sunday 6 may. I think the Hide and Seek event would be perfect, as you will have higher lvl, and lower lvl players, and both could participate.

Outlaw declaration wears off after 60 seconds out of combat - that would require them to spam the declaration skill if needed. Also some randoms may interfere... apart from that - awesome idea . We could also stream on three different streams since switching would take some time, sometimes it could take the whole action itself.

Okay...mmmh. We need to have very cooperative Outlaw then, that will not cheat. Maybe only Whitestar outlaw. In this case, as soon as the Outlaw see a team, he pop his outlaw skill.

For the random I though that an announce would be made on forum + area chat. Any interferer in the event would be blacklisted and infamed on forums.

Concerning the stream, no one will ever watch three different streams. It need to be one unique stream. Even with only one streamer then. It should not take so much time, if we are prepared. The one who start to stream will kick off the other immediatly. It should be maybe few second of black.

Like the BAM event idea something we have to test soon.

Hello everyone!

This my idea and proposition for our first event. Majiin, Peter and I had discussed yesterday, and the best moment to organise our first event will be the last day of the early access where most people will have reached the level cap 38, and will be more willing to spend an evening to not speed level.

This event will be used to promote our guild, so it need to be perfectly organised. Consider what's following as a draft of this project. Waiting for your feedback.



First event : Valkyrion Federation Challenge

What race among the seven allied in the Valkyrion Federation is the most worthy ? Are the Amans the fiercer fighter ? Are the Barakhas good for something outside their library ? Will the Elins be as dangerous as they claim ?
We challenge you today in a very special tournament to defend the honnor of your nation!
Interested ? Send your inscription to Whitestar including your race, your class and your guild. The day of the Tournament, you will be assigned to a team of your race, and you will be able to defend the honnor of your blood !

Explanations

The tournament will be organised as a classical 5v5 Tournament, at the exeption, you will not choose your team. A team will be assigned for you, with other players of the same race following a classical composition : 1 tank, 1 heal, 3 dps. The organisation will do its best to keep it balanced.
This will be the occasion to meet and play with other players in a fun evening, where yelling « FOR POPORIA ! » will not be ridiculous. Players from a same guild will most likely not be assigned to a same team.

The Tournament will be streamed and commented by Majiinfreddy and Elloa.


Tournament

The evening will start by two rounds of training matches to allow each team to get used to each other. Then the Tournament will start.

<rules of the Tournament>


The reward

The Winning team will be covered in honnor and praised. All other teams will have to solemny declare « <race> is the greatest nation of the Valkyrion Federation »

An interview of the winning team will be published in <server name>Time with a picture of each winnner.

....Say what now ? XD

You two make good commentators! Just keep practicing and remember to keep your spirit up and its fine Majin

Haha this can really fun indeed :3

Okay. I bump this because I'd like to see this event super ready-ready and set up with good rules and such.
I've not established rules cause I don't really know what to do.
I don't want to make a tournament a la BF, I'd like to do something simplier, but I don't really know how to be fair and efficient.
Anyone got ideas?

This sounds awsome, it really does. Wich day is the last day of the head start? So i know if i can join it

Great work Wendy! I especially like the 'Cross the Bridge' and 'Death or Alive' events.

Another event could be a tournament were each participating guild enters 1 champion for competing with the champions of the other guilds in 1-to-1 matches. Until 1 guild has won the championship tournament. A bit like the medieval 'Joust' tournaments.

Grand price for the winning champion is of course a kiss of the tournament Princess

Sounds very cool, but what level range are these events for?

For the tournament I would suggest no range, each guild can send whoever they want, their nastiest killing machine

And now for something completely different.... What about a Beauty Pageant?
Judges select 1 winner per race and 1 overall 'Beauty Queen of Samael'.
Pictures and interview in your fav Samael weekly... "Whitestar Entertainment proudly presents..."
(Hej we don't need to be serious in game all the time)

So my idea is to form a post about stuff we are strong at.
As Majin said: Community.

Brainstorming the offical post.

We are aiming for an events so here is 1 my idea and 1 Lodens.

Lodens: Popori race from Cutthroat to Castanica. For that event we would need 3 judges (1 at start of the race, 2nd guarding the race, 3rd at the end). We will need a designated group of dpsers clearing the road for people and finally an organizer.

Pauls: A treasure rabbit hunt.
Loden goes into hiding withing 1 of designated zones (we might extend it depending on how many people will participate). Judge will be a Loden and organizer.

For both I suggest a reward for now 1000g (that we might extend higher depending on gold income at 60).

----------------

I am not a good writer to make a full offical propaganda threat. So if someone is good in it (maybe ended up political studies) then I please to do so.

Best

I volounteer to organize both of those events. Once a week each so like friday evening popori run and dunno when Loden can have time to spend (weekly).

New idea for a big event

Hide and Seek Guild Wars

Guild Wars are an original feature that can be used in different way.
For this game the Guild Wars will work as an extension of Deathmatch and will be organised in a fair way between different guilds.
The purpose of this event is to create some fair play - just for fun - guild wars events and to allow players of different guilds to collaborate in a friendly atmosphere.

• Four or Six guilds will declare war against each others to form 2 camp.
  
• Different teams of 4 players (mixing guilds together) will be formed after inscriptions to balance the teams correctly and organize the Hide and Seek game.
  
• The teams will be separated in levels according to the players inscribed.
  Different areas will be selected and open for different level teams.
  
  For example : lvl 20-25 : FeyForest; lvl26-30: Cresentia woods; lvl31-35 : South Ostgarath;lvl 56-60: North Ostgarath etc... All zones will be choosen with a "Hide and Seek " spirit, so no desert and vast plains.
  
  
• The event will be organised during one evening, and during this evening, all parties will be sent in their respective areas, Hide and Seek their ennemies.
  
  
• Parties will not be allowed to gather to outnumber another party.

This should give a skirmish kind of PVP event, but fair and balanced, where players will only meet players of the same level range. The size of the guild would not matter either, as the event would be organised with inscriptions. VS


Example :

Whitestar + Elin Dance Squad VS Outlaw + Innocence
Each side gather 3 parties of lvl 56-60 that will fight in North Ostgarath
2 parties of lvl 31-35 that will fight in South Ostgarath
4 parties of lvl 20-25 that will fight in Fey Forest

Monday is generally a good day for moi
i like that idea

Okay, after some though I think I'll organise this event for next monday (not the monday of this week).
I'll work on rules, presentation and everything else. This event will happen whatever we are Vanarch or not. (While I propose to NOT hold the Treasure Hunt and the Pirate Day if we have not been elected)


For this week I've a better idea, but I need to have the lvl 60 agree with it!

<Nice picture>
"Come challenge our Captain Acharial and his band of famous pirates Beatrix, Shelma, Thremero and Yima! We are waiting for you at Cutthroat Harbour! Our swords sharped, and our spells ready. Let's spread some blood on Osgarath beachs!"

Dear people of Samael,
Whitestar invite you, lvl 60, this saturday at ..h, to meet us in a serie of friendly deathmatches 5v5. This will be the occasion to meet, get aquainted and having fun in battle in a gorgeous landscape.
For those participating to The Crimson Eye Tournament, it will be the good occasion to train your skills and prepare yourself.
Spectator are welcome aswell and we might organize duels or small deathmatches for lower level depending of who is present.
