Event, join us to Siege Battlefest, Return to the Fun
Posted on UHall http://stratics.com/community/threads/event-join-us-first-week-in-june-siege-battlefest-return-to-the-fun.340509/

The Event will start Monday June 1th, right after server up and last a week.

The success of the event depend of you as player.
And we will all need to help spread the word, maybe copy this text to an ingame book and drop copies ingame

The goels for the event is:
1. Bring old Siege players back
2. Making new players try out Siege
3. Get rid of old hate, just for a week
4. Get players out of hiding
5. Make the players, PvP'ers as well as non PvP'ers dress up for PvP and not running in crap and die in 3 sec.
6. Remove dry looting and heavy looting for a week
7. Less use of cheap tactics to win on any cost
8. All in all, bringeing the fun back

You may say, this is not possible, and maybe you are right, but let us try anyway.

Here is the rules:

The event will take place in special zones:
- VvV Battle towns
- Old Dungeons in Felucca
- Termur /Abyss
- The Sea
- Around player shops

Items you will need:
- A light yellow round bag. In the bag, you pot something for the one who kill you to loot. it can be gold, gems, resources, magic stuff, potions or something else.
- A book, where you write a short message to your killer and where he can sign with his name and maybe a message. I hope EC client do not mess up the books to much.

The zones are places where a new battle will effect the way of looting. That include thief actions.

The looting will work this way, each player carry a bag, light yellow, in the backpack, he place something in it for the winner to loot. Thieves can steal from this yellow bag and if they die, they will only lose their yellow bag

What is in the bag is up to the players. If he die alot, he may only add something good once a day if he can't afford more. Don't use blessed deeds and checks unless you put a note in Yellow bag, telling you will hand it over when ressed.

A PvM'er may use it as his loot bag, and if killed, the winner get all he looted from monsters.

A Crafter may drop some crafted stuff in it, could be a suit with room for more imbuing, or anything else, he use to sell on his vendor.

I'm sure a PvP'er can find something too or use a yellow bag he looted from someone else.

If you kill someone, only loot his yellow bag and sign his book. As books are bugged, when using both EC and CC, always start on a new page and use short phrase in EC to make it readable for all.

If you die, get a new yellow bag and enjoy next fight without having to replace your suit.

I hope it will work and all will do their part to share the fun this week.

See you on Siege

Loria agrees to these terms and will follow the rules.  Sounds like June will start off with a fun filled week.  We will also help other guilds who agree to the rules against guilds and players intent on grieving the Siege Battlefest Event!

Looting will always happen. It is too easy to be a tough bad guy when there are no real consequences. Taking the high road may not yield the instant gratification of "anarchy".

It is the road I try to travel.

True Kelmo but my respect can get me far. Sure looting will happen, bet lets look at the bright side.

The old rule, never leave town with something you can't afford loosing still count but I still believe alot will agree and do their best to resist looting stuff outside the yellow bag.

Hi all

I know you may not believe, that this event is possible, but hope you will give it a try. Any consern about the event is welcome too.

I would like to hear ideas for what to put in the yellow bag, what do you think about putting in yours, and what would love to find in in the yellow bag, when you kill someone.

Keep in mind, not all are wealthy, so a guy, who only can afford cheap gear, may add less valuable to his yellow bag. The guy, who run in maxed out gear, may need to add better stuff to the bag.

So lets get some ideas, I'm sure alot are unsecure, what would good stuff for the bag? Also keep in mind, blessed stuff do not stay in the bag, so if you want to add something like a community deed with resources, you need to place a book and tell, you will hand it over, when back after a res and tell the killer, he may grap something else on your body, to trade with, if he not trust your word.

I had not yet considered what to add to my yellow bags, are going to pack several this weekend. I do believe, a nice jewelry, imbuing resources or maybe something laying in my treasure room using space.

I hope we won't see players and guilds try to grief the Siege Battle Event. I know there are alot hate between some guilds and vs some players but if all will give it a chance, we could use this event as a break from the wars and the hate.

I know, there are players who do not read the forums and may not see the ingame books I'm dropping. If someone want to help me find mailboxes to drop books in, just ask me and I will copy as many you need.

I also believe it will have a good effect dropping a book in an enemy's mailbox, as the mailbox show senders name and that is a way to tell the enemy, you are going try making this work.

[Freja]

A little help and Info about the yellow bag and book. I try to drop some around shops, banks and moongatet and the bag at Young Travelers Inn is set to anyone and will have some bags, so you only need to add reward for the killer.
To the scribers on Siege, please make copies of the bags with books and help me get the word around and give bags to your friends.

BATTLEFEST IS DEAD...Diablo admitted to 'turning something on' in a fight with Bo in order to win and is therefore considered Betrayer and all his guildmates and allies who give any kind of support.. i do not support violations of TOS and value my accounts to the extent i will run to cove and have no contact with all betrayers and will stay away and wait for the game masters et al to deal with them.... i seen League of Pirates guild be banned and some gm's fired for similar activity and i know Ahren is aware of it... the whole FYOU guild is in jeapordy as Tru admitted he is aware that diablo uses illegal programs that viloate TOS, tru admitted half of his guild are 'hackers' and use illegal programs to gain an unfair advantage in combat so they can loot players and sell their items....if freja and TDO*still are allied or in any way give comfort, aid, or support to a guild whose leader admits half of his guild are using illegal programs she is also putting herself and her guild at risk and as such i shall run to cove upon seeing TDO* too... bottom line: i will wait until diablo works his magic and scams or steals from tru and or freja to continue his cycle of erratic behavior until he leaves this shard as he did atlantic shard. until then i will work skills [always wanted a gm cook], gather resources, and hunt with my guildmates and allies, who dont violate TOS.... thank you hoffs for taking in a scrub like me, as two days after i asked to join gilfane, i was asked to join TDO*, and would have been in one mell of a hess .... its too bad the pvp event will now prolly degrade into FYOU gettin bored and attacking/looting their own because no one else shows... why go there and have some one using illegal prgram kill and dry loot you its no fun sorry ill find fun things to do in uo instead!!!
