Hello, everyone. I've realized that there is a lot of hype around old school rares and was thinking of a fair/competitive way to introduce more into the game (also add new exclusive ones). I figured why not a seasonal competition? I would like to introduce Competitive Mode to Emps-World... it's basically the same as ironman mode but instead of 80 experience per hit you will only receive 10 experience per hit.

How will the winner be chosen?
Option 1: The first player to max their account will be declared the winner of the season.
Option 2: Players are given a deadline and the account with the most experience after the competition is over will be declared the winner.
(all competitive accounts will be wiped once a season is over)

How often should this competition be hosted?
Option 1: Seasonal (Summer, Winter, Fall, Spring)
Option 2: Once a year

Would this be something you guys would like to see, we would love to hear your opinions!

I love the idea behind this, but I think this sort of events is only for a specific group of players.
Let's divide the Emps-World community into 3 groups: Skillers, Pvmers and PVPers. I personally don't like skilling at all, Pvming is okay for me but I don't enjoy it. So players who share my opinion are already left out for this event. Maybe we could come up with an event which attracts both three groups. Or maybe different sort of events (during winter one for skillers, during summer one for pvmers, during spring one for pvpers etc...)

So to summarize: I think this is a really great idea, but I think it won't attract all players or only a specific group of players.

It would probably have to be like dmm if you'd want to satisfy all 3 groups: PKers, skillers and PvMers.

Haven't heard of any hype around oldschools tbf, it's pretty important to know whats coming before suggesting
In theory I would be down for different categories

) Grind
) Rng
) Pk

Don't like the idea of combining events into one long one(dmm), would rather have different ones with different difficulty. Always a good idea to throw a rng duel area in there for people that can't pk or play for extended periods.

I would like to thank you all for the feedback! How about if we have 3 winners for each season, one winner for each category?

Best Skiller of the season (Highest total exp on skilling skills only)
Best Pvmer of the season (Highest value of items in bank from monster drops) (Competitive accounts will not be able to trade items/coins)
Best Pvp'er of the season (Member with the most ELO) <- I know this can be farmed, but staff will keep an eye on pvp'ers and permanently ban any players cheating on sight.

Also, I would like to mention that the rewards can be many things. The reward doesn't have to focus on old school oldies, we can give new items away that are only obtainable through this event... I will not put too much thought on the reward, I would like to bring in a new/unique fun way to introduce seasonal events to Emps-World for everyone to enjoy! Would this be a way to get everyone involved, let me know what you think!
