Race Events and League Ladders - PoE ladder race - Aug 20 - Forum

" Chris wrote: This weekend, we're going to run a temporary four hour league with prizes to the top placed people. It will run from 2pm to 6pm New Zealand time on Saturday. This is 7pm to 11pm PACIFIC TIME ON FRIDAY. I'm sorry that this time is very bad for Europeans. We will host events for you in the future. The game version will be 0.9.1 and will contain all balance changes made in this version. The league will not be hardcore. Normal game rules will apply. NEW CHARACTERS MUST BE CREATED IN THIS LEAGUE TO BE ELIGIBLE. After the end of the league, they'll be moved back into the normal Default league. STASHED ITEMS IN THIS LEAGUE WILL BE LOST. Our decision on the winners is final. Bugs and mistakes will get in the way for many players and this is why we are running an event like this. If you lose your ability to participate due to a bug, please tell us about it and we'll do our best to fix it. We can't change the outcome of the event due to this. Prizes for the top ten people will be beta keys that you can give to anyone you like. We'll give 10 keys to first place, 9 to second, and so on. If you don't have friends to invite, we recommend you distribute them to people on the main forum who are waiting patiently! Please tell other Beta members about this event so that they all know. You're allowed to mention it to the public if it comes up. If you intend to stream your play in it, let us know so that we can compile a thread of streams for people to watch. http://www.worldtimeserver.com/convert_time_in_NZ.aspx?y=2011&mo=8&d=20&h=14&mn=0 edit just read your tweet. a. I intend to stream this http://twitch.tv/insidethesun and please...please...please..I wish it was hardcore and not default. I want there to be huge penalties for death..and adds more excitement Streaming [url]http://twitch.tv/insidethesun[/url] tue/thur/sunday 11am-3am mon/wed/fri after 10pm and sat 11am-3pm then after 10pm [pacific times] Last edited by insidethesun on Aug 17, 2011, 10:40:18 PM	Posted by insidethesun on Aug 17, 2011, 10:37:54 PM Quote this Post
Also 2/3s or more of my winnings will go to my stream viewers Streaming [url]http://twitch.tv/insidethesun[/url] tue/thur/sunday 11am-3am mon/wed/fri after 10pm and sat 11am-3pm then after 10pm [pacific times]	Posted by insidethesun on Aug 17, 2011, 10:48:53 PM Quote this Post
I will be streaming as well as providing a bit of a shoutcast to go with it. Have signed up with justin.tv to provide the stream at http://justin.tv/sirzorr I will also be donating any winnings to the community and believe that insidethesun has a brilliant idea for getting viewers! My only friend requires a key because they're interested so there is every chance I may have a few to give away. I will have 2 questions that I will ask throughout my cast and the first people to PM me the correct answers on the forums after the competition will be recipients of my generosity! If I fail and get no keys, I will gladly send eCookies from my iOven. Test question, how many friends do I have? ^_~	Posted by sirzorr on Aug 18, 2011, 2:29:53 AM Quote this Post
i am excluded from the event because of the timezone bug, fix please! :) No, it's a shame i'll have to pass this, but good luck. I hope to read the feedback on the league events afterwards	Posted by asukhama on Aug 19, 2011, 2:22:13 AM Quote this Post
I put in my personal day for work, and it got approved, so count me in for this event! Very Excited! If I win some keys, I will check out the forums and try to give them to people who seem mature enough to make good contributions to the beta. ------------------------------------------------------------- Beta Tester Since: v0.9.0 Proud Host of Aug 2011 Fan Art Contest -------------------------------------------------------------	Posted by Mordliss on Aug 19, 2011, 3:19:52 AM Quote this Post
This should be .... interesting, to say the least. I like the streaming list option, in case I can't participate for the duration. Nice one. I used to be apathetic, now I just don't care.	Posted by Arkwright on Aug 19, 2011, 7:00:44 AM Alpha Member Quote this Post
Take my name off the list of streams, I'm sadly, not going to be able to stream this.	Posted by Slappy on Aug 19, 2011, 7:00:45 AM Quote this Post
Guy from Spain here. It could be 4:00 am when start. OFC I will be there LOL. Probably only resist 1-2 hours, but I'll be there at the start. IGN: Gonorreitor	Posted by Valmar on Aug 19, 2011, 9:00:05 AM Quote this Post
Too infernally late for me, I will have to pass... Maybe there could be different temporary leagues for different continents and at the end the results can be combined (e.g. the #1 in North/South America may be 3rd over all, while the #1 in Europe/Africa may be #1 over all and #1 in Asia/Australia may be # 2 over all).

Not a bad idea in the future to have these temporary leagues have a rolling admission (and cutoff) based on timezone. Forum Sheriff	Posted by tpapp157 on Aug 19, 2011, 1:00:20 PM Alpha Member Quote this Post
