Dark Century is finally open to everyone (see Opening Dark Century with a Ball) and their first tournament was a big success with fighters from all over RPG Empire coming to participate. I also came to participate in the tournament but my non-enhanced sword took a lot of time to rezzed and, what’s worst, my DCS2 meter never loaded.
The tournament was a Free For All with five rounds of fighting. The fighter who wins the most rounds will be declared the victor. The rules were simple: No Enhance Weapons, No Powers and No Healing. Healing is allowed only after a round is over.
When I arrived at Dark Century the only people I saw at the arena where Drathian Magne, Jacqui Beck, Gandy Kidd and Axe Darkstone. If I remember it correctly, they were all seated at the stands patiently waiting for more people to appear. Fortunately, people, as far as Nordhaven, started dropping one by one including the Queen of Sparta, Jackie Balbozar.
When it was time, all those who wish to participate were asked to enter the arena. The format of the tournament as well as the rules were given and the fight was started. The first two rounds of the fight was weird because fighters were being thrown up into the air. The fighters noticed this and some even complained about it (breaking RP, these people don’t know how to use OOC chat) but it stopped in the later rounds.
The Queen of Sparta, Jackie Balbozar, won 4 of the 5 scheduled rounds and thus was proclaimed Champion of Dark Century’s first ever tournament. She took home 750L$ but donated it back to Dark Century.
A few fighters like Lienna and yux came in late and they were not allowed to participate anymore since the fight had already started.
Well, it was an interesting tournament with a few weird but funny moments and, as always, lag was terrible. It wouldn’t be Second Life if we didn’t have lag right? LOL!
Anyway, events like this is going to be a regular thing in Dark Century so all of you creatures of the night if you want to test your fighting skills in melee combat then drop by Dark Century now!
