The Palapk Nation hosts a melee tournament weekly in channel Op Palapk Nation at 7:00 PM EST every Monday.



Server and Realm:
Useast Softcore Non-Ladder

How To Enter:
On the scheduled date and time of the event (usually Mondays at 7:00 PM EST), show up at the Palapk Nation channel Op Palapk_Nation.

When the hour approaches upon the tournament, all non-melee players will be temporarily banned from the channel to avoid any risk of interruption in the tournament. The highest-ranking member in the Palapk Nation government that is present will run the event from beginning to end. This will usually be run by the current Secretary of Melee and/or other government members.

At exactly 7:00 PM EST the tournament will begin and the first Pnt//(pw) game will be revealed with a password. At this time, members will begin to join that game. When the first Pnt game becomes full, the person running the tournament will whisper the referee that is reffing the second game and so on.

Rules:
When a member first joins a Pnt game, the referee will state the following most common broken rules. These are:

1. No exiles are allowed to be used against non-zealot players, such as barbs etc.
2. No running.
3. You must say go at the same time and the go must still be up when contact is made.
4. If you misclick, the duel will still continue because it would be your own fault and it happens more often than anything else. Plus, it has been found that a small percentage of players do it on purpose in hopes of a re-duel fearing they are going to lose.

After the most common broken rules are stated, the referee will create the brackets. The referee creates the brackets by clicking the party screen button and bringing up a list of each member in the game. The referee will choose the top member to duel the member right below him and so on... The referee by default is always in the last bracket and duels last. This is how the brackets are formed.

The duels are commenced in a best of 10 kills win by 2 kills (first to 6 kills win by 2 kills) for the finals, and first to 6 kills for non-final games. Both players must say "Go" above their head using the ! command. This must be done at the same time and the "Go" must still be up before contact is made in a duel. Failure to do so will result in a re-duel. You are responsible for misclicking. If you misclick, the duel will continue to resume. I have overruled this because it happens all the time and a very small percentage of players seem to do it on purpose in hopes of a re-duel when they slightly feel they are going to be killed and lose.

Depending on the number of players in the game, the duels may be done in single elimination, double elimination or may have a bye. Single elimination duels will only occur if there are 2, 4 or 8 players in the game. Double elimination duels will occur when there are 3 or 6 players in the game. Byes occur when there are 5 or 7 players in a game.

Single elimination dueling means that only one set of a best of 10 kills win by 2 kills (first to 6 kills win by 2 kills) are implemented. Double elimination dueling means that two sets of a of 10 kills win by 2 kills (first to 6 kills win by 2 kills) are implemented. Bye dueling means that an FFA (free-for-all) needs to first take place to find out who receives a free win. *Only because 5 or 7 players make the game uneven, this needs to be done.

In the end, there should only be one player remaining that had won the game. This player will be asked by the referee to go back to the Palapk Nation channel Op Palapk_Nation to wait until all games are finished. Each player that had won their game will be whispered by the person running the tournament the final game and password. This is where the top three winners of the tournament will be revealed.

The top three winners will then be placed into the Palapk Nation tournament hall of fame.

Bad Manner (Code BM):

BM1. Do not commit acts of bad manner.
BM2. Do not buff.
BM3. Do not precast.
BM4. Do not use poison.
BM5. Do not use slow.
BM6. Do not enchant.
BM7. Do not smite.
BM8. Do not charge.
BM9. Do not jump.
BM10. Do not pot.
BM11. Do not run.
BM12. Do not whirlwind.
BM13. Do not knockback.
BM14. Do not use items that emit auras which affect player vs. player (PVP) and cause physical and/or elemental damage.
BM15. Do not emit the holy freeze aura.
BM16. Do not change gear more than once before dueling in any event. (Changing gear is allowed only once before every duel).

Hall of Fame:
The Palapk Nation Tournament Hall of Fame™ showcases Useast's top 99 highest ranking melee characters by their number of tournament points won.
First, second and third place winners of each tournament will receive 2, 1, and 1/2 hall of fame points respectively.

History:
The Palapk Nation has conducted weekly tournaments since its founding in 2004. The tournament use to be split between zealot only and all melee classes which alternated every week. The tournament is now open to all melee classes for every week. The tournament once required a 3/20/20 entry fee which was used as a prize distribution. That entry fee and prize system has now been retired. There is no longer an entry fee and prizes are based solely on tournament sponsors.

Prizes:
It will be announced whether or not the next tournament will contain prizes - either in items, forum gold or some other commodity of value. Prizes may vary with each tournament depending on sponsors.

Very beautifuil, Tyler. Very well done. I'm sure this will, no doubt, increase tournament activity. I missed this ranking system. :cheers:
