I issued the offer in Toq's wonderful thread but Volo either isn't interested or didn't bother looking at the thread again (don't blame him for that), so I'll issue the 'challenge' here.
I'll never use it, so I'm putting up 100g (freepside) of my Nimrodel cash to the winning side in a semi-organized group v group fight. Sorry creep only people, I don't think I have enough of value creepside to make a worthy incentive.
First two group LEADERS to accept the challenge will have to figure out the date and numbers.
EDIT: I forgot about comms pots being trade-able, I should be able to accommodate creep pots if that side prefers them to freep gold.
My stipulations:
best out of 3 fight, if your group wipes or flees the battle (everyone leaves combat) or flees to friendly npcs, that counts as a loss.
No waiting on cooldowns in between fights. Cappies/Wls rebuffing is expected, but if you can't get back to the fight in 5 mins after a wipe, forfeit.
I won't pick where the fight happens, but friendly npc involvement is a forfeit. If both sides want to fight in hostile mobs like wolves or tress I couldn't care less.
Both groups will be the same size and a previously agreed upon number between 6 and 12.
The only things thats slightly contentious: no brands, I don't like em and its my useless gold, so no rank, mord, or store brands.
Anything else goes, though if each side wants to set up other rules, thats fine by me.
Post here if you want to lead a group and say whether you'd be creep or freepside.
I may or may not actually log to watch, so have people taking SSs.
