Week 3 Format and Setup
only galleons allowed
only light weapons allowed: flares and harpoons
ramming, tar allowed
only heavy weapon allowed: minotaur
no intentional killing
map is ‘Battle over Firnfield’

All ships line up next to each other, east of the "village killer" gun gate, which is the starting line. They must not cross the starting line or fire until the race begins. When the ref counts down from 3 and says "go!" the race can commence. The contestants must complete three circuits around the pre-determined course, and then cross back across the starting line from the east side to the west. The 1st place winner will gain 7 points, the 2nd place ship will win 4 points, and the 3rd place ship will 2 points. All other ships will earn 1 point.
5 minutes lobby time, 30 minutes game time

My pro paint skills were requested again this year, so here is a diagram detailing the race!

Sign-ups must be entered by 2:00 AM EDT Saturday, 10/3!

Finally, you can volunteer to "merc" in your sign-up. By "merc-ing" you make yourself available for a second match with no chance for points (basically for fun). This is a backup way of filling another lobby if we have sign-ups greater than six, but not enough to fill a second match.

I'd like to apologize for signing up in the wrong thread this week. I'm honestly not even sure how that happened.

Good luck to all of you :D

In the future if you re-do this event .. For the race I'd really like if you said in chat a bit of commentary or something that it was time to turn in.. I feel like we beat Clan clan(I think it was clan clan, I'm sorry if I got that incorrect :P) partly, if not completely, because they were confused.. (We were also unsure if it was time, and just did it anyway)..

Likewise in the second match that I watched, looked like a lot of teams didn't know it was time And lost first and other places because of it likely..

Or perhaps have the race in a figure 8 this way you pass through the middle every lap and the final lap you will already be going through the middle.


Otherwise I think I like these less standard match styles then the normal competitive deathmatches..

Absolutely, if you guys are confused it's our job to communicate better. Last year we did the squid race and it was just as chaotic, and basically trying to create a new game type that is unsupported will always be a little chaotic. So we are always listening as to how to improve. I'm glad you enjoyed because I too love seeing fun variety in competitive GOIO, and that is a large part of the soul of this event.

Notes to myself really, although if you agree or disagree strong enough to post, by all means -

to Improve Race -

- 3 laps, rather than 2 1/2
- higher points on position.. perhaps 10 for first, 7 for second, 5 for third, 3 for 4th, 2 for 5th, and 1 for last
- perhaps allow hwachas, although that would increase the odds of a death >.<  but on the other hand, might take out engines to make turning gun side worth it
