Chase that squidly rear: Squid Race!
The AJSA is looking for the best squid pilots this side of the dunes, and the crews willing to fix those paper thin ships. Your goal, to race around the Flayed Hills and beat your opponent to the finish line, all while dodging mines, flax, and the general hatred of engineers fixing moonshine squids.
There are some guidelines one must follow in order to participate in this race. All captains and crew need to be willing to listen first and foremost, this game doesn’t work unless everyone is willing to cooperate =D. The race will take place in a 4v4 game, but there will only be a 1v1 race going on. We will be using a bracket system, so if you win, you’ll move up in the bracket. If you lose, you’ll get a second chance in the loser bracket to catch back up!
When: May 9th, 1500 EST
How to sign up: Post you and your team below. On game day, just be alone and wait for the announcement in global chat! We’ll be giving out the lobby password through PM, so be sure you tell us your in game name down below!
