1v1 NPC Gear PVP Tournament (Sign-ups go here)

Welcome to this little tournament I've cooked up.

Date+Time+Location~

April 16th starting at 5pm servertime. Location will be near Sandsong at the coordinates 193, 468. Secondary location will be in Hell at the coordinates 401, 595.

UPDATE: Due to personal reasons, I will have to change the date of the event. The new date will be April 23rd at 5pm servertime. Thank you for your understanding.

UPDATE #2: 2x drops forces me to move this to April 30th.

UPDATE #3: Extended 2x drops forces me to move this to May 7th. Final reschedule, I swear.

Rules~

1. You must be level 89+ to enter.
2. This event is 1v1 and will be in an open map.
3. You must use level 70 NPC gear available from NPCs. Not mob drops. You must be showing the armor at all times.
4. Pots, charms, flying, and genies are allowed.
5. Tomes, refines, blessings, nix/herc, flesh ream on pets, and genies with attack damage skills (Bramble Rage, True Emptiness, etc.) are not allowed. If you are caught using these, you will be disqualified.

List of banned genie skills: Explosion, Blade Of Supreme Heat, Smoldering Burst, Impact, True Emptiness, Rumbling Thunder, Earth Strand, Thunderstorm, Earth Claw, Electro Dance, Dust Storm, Hollow Fist, Reflective Aura, Phoenix Dance, Bramble Rage, and Dragonfire.
6. Sins may not stealth at the start of the fight. They are allowed one stealth per fight. Use it wisely. Any stealth after the first one is considered a forfeit.
7. All matches will start out with self buffs and full chi.
8. If you interfere with other matches, you will be disqualified.
9. If you fail to show up within five minutes of your match start, you automatically forfeit the fight.
10. Do-overs will only be allocated if someone from the outside interferes with the fight.
11. The only loser bracket is for 3rd place. The two that lose to the top two will battle each other to determine who gets 3rd place.
12. Do not carry anything particularly valuable in your inventory for this. Judges will attempt to pick drops and return if you do drop, but there is no guarantee.
13. If you lose your match, you're out. No exceptions.

Event Rundown~

1. Sign-ups open on April 2nd.
2. Sign-ups close on April 12th at 11:59pm. No one will be accepted after this point.
3. Brackets will be posted on April 13th. These will be randomized.
4. Tournament starts on April 16th at 5pm. A judge will be in party with each fighter during the matches.

For Sandsong location: Since there are three platforms, we'll stage three battles at a time. Lemme give an example: Player1 and Player2 battle on the northmost platform, Player3 and Player4 on the middle platform, and Player5 and Player6 on the southmost platform. Battles should not extend over the designated platform. Everyone that isn't the combatants or the judges should be in the air on the edges of the platforms.
5. After the event is over, all prizes will be paid out to the winners.

Prize~

1st place will receive 5mil coins as their prize. 2nd place will receive 2.5mil coins as their prize. 3rd place will receive 1.25mil coins as their prize.

Last Words~

Remember that this is just a jumping off point for setting up future events like this. Seeing what works and what doesn't, you know? That being said, I wish everyone the best of luck.
