I'm looking forward to see what you come up with!

Yesterday I read a old topic made by Benforjol about him organizing a PvP contest on Sentinel Craft. For as far as I?m aware, those ideas weren't executed, even though most people seemed to like it. So today, I asked around a bit and everyone said they were interested, albeit that some would rather watch instead of playing. And thus, that got me thinking about reorganizing it.

Note: the stuff discussed between the lines could change or be removed entirely.


Time and date:
This could be once within 1 month up to 3 months. Going bellow 1 month might be a bit hard considering the organization.
The teams would have 2 to 4 weaks to finish their matches, depending on the above chosen timeframe.

An alternative would be to do it once in every (half) year, with bigger prizes.


Who can play?
We could make teams sponsored by towns or nations.  Those towns / nations would have to have a arena and a gym for their team to train and fight. Also they need enough money for the entry to the tournament. About this,  I'm thinking of a $5000,- maximum, but that could mean that some smaller town aren't able to participate. $1000,- would be the best in my opinion. Or maybe the entry fee could be split up between the host and the team. The teams don't need to consist of members from that town. So, for example, Abil could sponsor a team consisting of members from Novas_kuklos, Mirlaz and a few players who aren't in a town. I expect that this'll bring some interesting competition for who's able to form the strongest team. (and keep it.. )
Of course teams can also be formed without a sponsor, though this team still needs an arena and enough money to pay the entry fee.


How does one rank up on the scoreboard?
The Tournament shall be fought in an Elimination Scheme.

The teams will have to play two matches against each other, one in their own arena and one in their opponent's arena. A match consists of five rounds. For every round won in your own arena, you'll get 1 point and for every round won in another team's arena you'll get 1.5 points.
If both teams have an equal amount of points, then a third match has to be played. This won't be in the arena of both of the teams, but in the arena of a different team. Only one match will be played, consisting of 3 rounds. For every round won the team gets 1 point. Example; teams A and B both have 12 points, then a third match will be played in C's arena. A wins two rounds and B wins one. then A ends with 14 point and B with 13, thus team B is defeated.


Prizes
This is why there's an entry fee. The top 3 teams could win some prize money. The town or nation which the team reprecents will be able to have a cut of the team its prize if agreed upon before entering.
1st = 60%
2nd  = 30%
3rd = 10%

Also, winning a tournament will grant your team a place in the hall of fame. This will be located in the 'Magnum Colosseum Abili'. (If other people don't mind ofc ) (Will also be posted on the forums) #


Teams
These could vary depending on the situation. They could be ranging form 3v3 to 6v6 for example. Maybe it would be cool if  we  could have multiple teams fighting, like 5v5v5, or if 2 teams could play against 2 other teams, like 3+4v2+5. The amount of players doesn't always need to be even, so 6v5 or 3v4 could be an option. The team with less fighter could get a buff.

A team needs to have a 'leader', to which I would rather refer to as a captain. This captain could assign tasks to his / her team members.
For example; player A should make the potions needed for the upcoming matches while player B should repair all the armors and weapons. The captain is also responsible for the team, he / she should make sure that everything regarding equipment and training is dealt with.


1v1 Sub-tournament #
Ladder tournaments are a good way to decide who the best individual PvPer is on the server, and the teams could use this knowledge to their advantage, for example by requiting skilled players. You'll receive 1 point for each killed player.
Rules;
-Only registered players are allowed to be fought. Non-registered players aren't allowed to attack registered players and vice-versa.
-Players are allowed to fight everywhere in the wilderness. Not in towns, unless permission by a town staff is given. Please respect the town rules!
-Registrations are supposed to be in the correct form and can be posted beneath this topic.
-Kills are to be posted in your registration post. Names of the killed players are needed otherwise your kills don't count!

Registration form;

In-game name;

Killed players;

! If you're registered, keep in mind that you can be attacked at all times. Please keep it reasonable though !
Registrations can't be posted at the moment, since I don't know if it's a good idea to start this before the big tournament!

Gambling #
If more than one person gambles, their net gain should be based on how much the other team gambles. (By "team" I mean what team they are gambling for.  By gambling on a team you are therefore on that team.)  Let's say Person A, B, and C all vote 500  for the Green Team, but Person D votes 500 for the Blue Team and Person E votes 700. So you're given money based on the amount the other team invested.

I know this is a whole lot of math, but in the end, it makes sense.

The net amount that each person invested on Green was 1500.  Therefore,

Person A, who invested 500, invested 33% of the net amount.
Person B, who invested 500, invested 33% of the net amount.
Person C, who invested 500, invested 33% of the net amount.

The net amount for team Blue's bets was 1200.  Therefore,

Person D, who invested 500, invested 42% of the net amount.
Person E, who invested 700, invested 58% of the net amount.

Collectively, 2700 was bet on both the teams.  Each person should be awarded their percentage if their team wins.  This way, if Green Team wins,

Person A, B, and C all get 33% of 2700, which is 900 each.

And if Blue Team wins,

Person D gets 42% of 2700, which is 1134, and Person E gets 58% (more because he gambled more), which is 1566.


Rules
-no /sethome command
-no /back command
-wait outside of the ring while the fight is still lasting
-only carry the things allowed for your class (whilst in the arena) before and during the fight
-stripped inventory before getting the means of the fight
-no using of enchants or potions (if not given in your class)
-no using of VIP privileges-/fly,and other commands and privileges with bonuses
-no hacks
-act mature and be reasonable. You're not only representing yourself, but also a town / nation!
-Respect the committee, your fellow players and the rules.
-the teams have to /hat their  team's / town's / nation's banner during matches. So there won't be any confusion about who plays in what team. teams are only allowed to play under 1 banner. Ninjas are an exception.
- The only items you're allowed to use during a match are the items your class gives you + unarmed. #
- A player isn't allowed to be part of multiple teams. #


Some class ideas
I divided them in offensive, defensive and support. Armors are without helmet. Teams may choose their own set-up before a match. Every roles may only be chosen 2 times per team.

Offensive;
1] Knight; iron armor, iron sword {sharpness 1}, 1x regeneration potion (drinking)
2] Archer; chainmail chest + leather armor, bow {flame 1, punch 2, power 1}, wooden sword {sharpness 1, unbreaking 2}, 1x 32 arrows, 1x potion of swiftness (drinking)
3] Ninja; no armor, diamond sword, 1x invisibility (drinking) + 1x potion of leaping (drinking) + 1x potion of swiftness (drinking) + 2x potion of poison (splash)
4] ..

Defensive;
1] Knight; iron armor, iron sword {sharpness 1}, 1x regeneration potion (drinking)
2] Tank;  diamond chest {projectile protection 2} + iron armor, stone axe {knockback 1, unbreaking 2}, no potion
3] Sentinel; leather chest + iron armor, stone sword {unbreaking 2}, waterbucket, fishing rod {unbreaking 2}, 2x regeneration potion (splash) + 1x slowness potion  (splash)
4] ..

Support:
1] Witch; leather armor, wooden sword {knockback 2, unbreaking 2}, 1x slowness potion (splash) + 1x weakness potion (splash) + 5x poison potion 2 (splash)
2] Sentinel; leather chest + iron armor, stone sword {unbreaking 2}, waterbucket, fishing rod, 2x regeneration potion (splash) + 1x slowness potion  (splash)
3] Healer; leather armor, bow {punch 1},  1x 16 arrows, waterbucket, 10x regeneration potion 2 (splash) + 3x potion of strength (splash)
4] ..

Didn't know where to place this one, way to op :
   Migas; blue leather armor, wooden sword stick, 10x cookie, 1x milkbucket


Some arena ideas
Arenas can have oddities or hazards that relate to where they are. MC night battles might be cool too.
1] A pirate ship boarding a trading vessel.
2] An ice arena; with ice along the ground that causes slipping.
3] A desert arena; where sand can suddenly fall down.
4] A castle siege; where one team has to attack a fortified position while the other tries to defend it.
5] An arena in the sky, consisting of a few floating islands connected with bridges. [great for archers]
6] An arena with jumpboost. nuf' said, tho adding speedboost too would make it even better.
7] A 'fighting pit' kinda arena; with spikes and not a lot of place to maneuver.
8] ..
 
If we want every arena to be unique, then idea number 5 is already claimed for Market.


Some other ideas
1] Team mascotes, logos, banners or maybe even a team song?
2] Advertisements for shops or donations to the tournament could be a source of extra prizemoney.
3] We could have mini-events between matches for special minor buffs during matches.
4] A skype channel for each team / match.
5] ..
