Swadia's second House Tournament! (EU server)

[YuriTheRed]

Brave and loyal Swadians! The Nord advance appears to have slowed down (something about me sending them lots of kegs of Fosters and now they're all really ill) so we see an opportunity to hold some festivities to raise our troops' morale. It is therefore with great delight that I declare we will holding our second House tournament!

Our genius Hande has provided an epic map for the event and the Swadian nobility are looking forward to seeing the houses battle to claim the title of Champions of the Realm! We will be heading over to the neutral Sarranid Sultanate as their cities have not been ravaged by those nasty Nords!

House Tournamet matches will be held on Saturday and Sunday between 7 pm and 11 pm GMT.

This event will require a lot of planning and scrict adherence to our guidelines and rules. Failure to do so will result in a short walk to the executioners block (a 2 month ban minimum). It is therefore in your interests to read the following information very carefully.

Matchmaking will be done after the sign up is closed, based on region and number of players in houses.

General Rules

Spoiler

• First and foremost, the tournament will be on a deathmatch server. This means you can kill your teammates (be careful!) but also means that spectators etc can attack each other. Any player that kills another player that is not competing in the arena will be [color=black]banned.
  
• You will listen to the developer team or be removed from the server.
  
• You will not attack another player until the presiding Lord declares the match to begin.
  
• All players not competing will head to the spectator areas provided.
  
• Players will NOT bring weapons onto the server. Only competitors with regulation equipment will be allowed.
  
• While some inter-house rivalry is encouraged, trolling/swearing/being a twat is not allowed. The same rules apply for language as on any other server.
  
• Teamspeak will be mandatory for this event. There will be many instructions given out over TS and imperative that all players listen and obey.
