  Event Idea  

I appreciate the effort and planning the game staff put into the events, but I`m starting to think that the UWs are getting slightly stale, even with all the twists and turns that are thought up. Also, i know that several staff members, most prominently Badwolf, have been complaining about the lack of respect people are showing their hard work for the events.
Therefore, i have tried to think of an event that would be relatively hands-free for the game staff, but something new for everyone. What i am proposing is that we have someone (probably this would be one of the 2 areas the game staff would be required for) group federations into 2 or 3 factions. then, each faction would choose a "target player". this player would have to reach a certain target PR, but the catch is that there is 1 or maybe 2 other factions trying to stop them. also, to be a bit fairer, the target player cannot use star bases or scouts (unless out of DP) (this one might have to be on the honor system, unless we can figure out a testing method). the faction with the first"target player" to reach the target PR is declared the winner, and might receive some sort of reward (probably artifacts such as regalos or gordos or such) (this is the second place the staff would come in, unless a benevolent player would be willing to offer up his stash of artifacts for this event (not likely)). the "target players" would get a few more artifacts than the rest, simply because they are the targets.
Basically, thats my event idea in a nutshell. I don`t know if everyone would like or agree to it, but i personally think it would be pretty fun. Please share your thoughts.

That is unfortunate. DM`s were always a lot of fun...too bad Stephen doesn`t have a backup...

That`s what version control is for... t(-_-)t

@Iuztheevil

There are files missing from the DM i don`t really know what Stephen did but the DM is not very function in any sense of the word.

I still think they should just bring back the death matches...but if not, I think it would depend on how long the event lasted.

Does anyone know why there are no more death matches?

so we need to decide on a target pr for each race... any ideas?

I still think we should just have old school death matches....either individual or federation based, 4 hours per match, most planets win.

Cool Idea!!!
The `target` empire should have to start under 2 mill pr (maybe 1 mill??)
and climb to PR xxx (this have to be a function of the type of Empire - per other`s comments) .; something that might take 8 to 12 hours ??

the climbing empire has to be collective, because of their build rate, or maru because they dont have bases or scouts

Doesnt this beg the question if pple spam... LOL.. .Cuz lets say the target is like 20 mil. I could so reach that with a XE or zen spam.

I like it too, it could be a short, timed event...kind of like an old Death Match...

What ever happened to Death Matches anyway? Is there a reason they are not held anymore?
