Title: Event: Spleef Tournaments
Post by: Xeadin on May 25, 2011, 06:03:47 am
~~ Approved by Relkeb (5-24-11) ~~

It is about that time of year again, when all spleef fans reunite in what is to be the most epic minigame on Minecraft. That's right, MinrCon's around the corner, and to honor that tradition, I am going to be hosting a series of Spleef games on this server.

Some of you may not know what spleef is, but don't worry-- below is a video on Spleef gameplay (the game itself is pretty self-explanitory). The video is also an example of multiplayer/ team spleef: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-RmS-bn3LQ&feature=related


This thread is for sign-ups for the spleef games. Progress of spleef games, once sign-ups have been finalized, will be recorded via google spreadsheets.

Rules for Spleef games:
- NO HACKS (which includes WoM)
- If you are spectating or watching any games in progress, do not interrupt the game by going into the arena. If you are pushed off by accident, respawn as soon as you can.
- If you cannot reach a player or you get cornered and have no way to advance on any of the players, you may build UP TO 3 BLOCKS to continue gameplay.

Gameplay mechanics of Spleef:
- The objective of the game is to grief the arena floor-- causing the opposing players to fall through and be the Last One Standing (or group if you play in teams).
- The winners of each round will advance to the top, where the competition may get rougher.
- Good reflexes and acute judgement is a must in order to overcome the challenges in Spleef. Some arenas may be flat, while some may be pre-griefed to add an extra challenge to gameplay

In order to be involved in Spleef, you must be a Member+ rank to play 2-4 player spleef, and Recruit+ rank to play multiplayer (team) spleef

Tournaments will take place beginning on May 28th for some people (might be earlier or later depending on where you live), ending with the grand finale of the champion of champions on MineCon day-- June 1st. Before the tourneys start, there will be several practice/ training sessions where spleef contestants-- new and improved-- can join the fun before the big events start up.


Again, progress will be recorded on google spreadsheets: https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Aq09ITJ1L3YOdE52Y3ZReXIzQ0ZrMDQ5U3c4czZ1TlE&hl=en_US&authkey=CP6w-qwL (spreadsheets are still in progress, as is sign-ups)

Good luck, fellow spleefers!

I suppose you could ;)

The list is getting a little bigger now, but more players are encouraged. Gather interests, ask other players to join the fray. Let's make this a big event rather than another boring opti-olympics ;D

You're going to have to make the tournament so it will be in a time comfortable to everyone, or at least the most people you can get.

Or maybe you can just organise it so we know who we have to play and we can play the match in our own time (reasonably soon though). Just a suggestion :P
