Standard rules for league events apply. Please click this link if this is your first race event.
We're testing what level players can get to in various race durations so that we can calibrate prizes. These calibration leagues have no prizes, but we'd appreciate players who understand the league event system playing in them so that we can get good data. We're not publicising them beyond just having them in this forum and on the news page's event schedule. We are running one event of each duration from 1 to 4 hours in Solo mode (no partying). We may calibrate partying events also before we start running real events.
If you don't understand what this type of event is, we recommend not playing in it until we have started the first season of events and have more information up. At this stage we expect to start running real events with a set of awesome prizes in approximately a week.
The password for the event is: calibration

For a password protected league, create your character as normal and select the special league from the drop down. You will be prompted for the password.

Just wondering, but what exactly is the difference in the private league and the default/HC leagues? like different prizes or something when it goes "live"?

This league is just to test out what level people will get to in races to hand out rewards accordingly when ACTUAL races begin.
Those races will give prizes for top spots, passing certain levels, or clearing certain side areas first, possibly more.

If you still have to beat hundreds of people for the prize should it really matter all that much how long it takes? Unless you plan on running these all day every day.
