      IRC Nickname: Dnovelta Group: Emeritus Posts: 2750 Member No.: 130 Joined: January 20, 2008 Total Events Attended: 137    | Ok, the event is going to be 1 month long, and I hope to get everything started by this coming Monday (19th), but this doesn’t mean people can’t join in after that day. I will not reject any teams, pairs or people who want to join after that date. The event is separated into four sub-events, but I’m just using a single thread. I can’t say how successful it will be, but my hope is that it achieves something. Anyway, the idea is a mix between Skill of the Week and Pro Silentium. Instead of a different skill like Fletching, Mining or Fishing we will train the combat skills. I’ll allow teams, pairs, and individuals to join in on this. Teams are a maximum of four, and once you’ve formed your team PM me the name and the four members and I’ll edit into this post. For pairs, let me know who you’re racing and I’ll make one of those “race” signatures and edit it in (you can provide me with it via PM if you want to be nice). Individuals just post here if you want to be a part of this. The basic idea is that you will train your butt of for a week in that week’s combat stat: Attack, Strength, Defense, HP. If you’re in a team you’re racing against your fellow team members to see who is the fastest, but also working together to get as much EXP together as a team. If you’re in a pair, you’re doing the same thing - racing and trying to get as much EXP together as possible. If you’re an individual you’re just pushing yourself to get as much EXP as you can. If we get enough people signed up and if we actually show that we’re doing something with our time, then Tabs has agreed to make banners for the following:
It IS a race, and it IS a competition (a friendly one). So I’ll also offer a cash reward in some form either by trade limit (my trade limit is 48k) or maybe the 26k cheat, this can be discussed. I’ll be using one of my noob accounts and adding everyone who is in the competition to his friends list so I can look everyone up on the Highscores list. The order in which the stats will go is:
NOTE: If people want, we can make the HP count throughout the entire month, and I’ll just document it along with the other stats, and have the final week be HP designated and the award would be a total of all HP EXP gained because HP is harder to train and get experience in than individual combat stats. So here are the current entries:
_________________________________________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________________________________ If you have any questions, just ask and I’ll answer. This entire event is open to change if you think something isn’t fair or right. Rewards can be discussed later like I said. FAQs: Q: A: Q: A: Q: A: --------------------   | ||||||||||

| IRC Nickname: Dnovelta Group: Emeritus Posts: 2750 Member No.: 130 Joined: January 20, 2008 Total Events Attended: 137 | So you'll just compete in the first week? Just another note: You can be like Zemus and only participate for a particular week if you want (in his case because he's maxed already). Like I said, I'll allow anyone to join in at any point in the competition, and likewise anyone can drop out. If say you're training to get 99 Strength, and want some fun along the way, join in for this week and then just drop out so you don't feel pressured to train skills you don't want to train. Personally, I'm looking for a team of 4 to do this with. Should you wish to make a team, I advise you make it with people who are going to go through all four weeks, unless your team is just for a particular skill and you just want to race each other that way. There are lots of ways you can do this. -------------------- | ||||||||||

Attack is just a one week thing. Each skill gets one week. Just a comment: I think I'm going to scrap the idea of one skill each week and instead follow the trend that's being seen here - people signing up for a specific skill to train. They could also divide up their time as they wish; 2 weeks for Attack, 1 for Strength and 1 for Defense. Then those sets of experience would just go towards each skill like before. How do people feel about that change? -------------------- | ||||||||||

Events are only for the person & account that is in WG unless they are public events. ~ I probably won't get much in any of them, but I'll be doing a ton of slayer soon. Might as well put me in for HP and Def. Won't get much besides attendance XD -------------------- | ||||||||||
