For people with work and school.


Well, 3h and 4h contest are for you then !
New to this but want to try it out.

Do I wait until the event starts and make a new character?
For those 2 hours will there be an additional league option or do I just go straight into HC?

I'd appreciate any other information needed to join, if someone would be so kind.
Thanks.

League is opened 30 min before the start. You will be blocked on the beach at starting point.
So you can create a char, log out/in and wait for the starting count down :)

Out of curiosity - how come such a tight time limit.

Why not have the league open for entry for 24 hours and limit the players character to have less than $timelimit At which point they die and are booted out of the league.

That way people from all arround the world can enter easily.

Standard rules for league events apply. Please click this link if this is your first race event.

We're testing what level players can get to in various race durations so that we can calibrate prizes...

...We are running one event of each duration from 1 to 4 hours in Solo mode (no partying). We may calibrate partying events also before we start running real events.


That's your answer right there in the OP description. They are doing this for testing purposes, not convenience. They need to see what can be done in these specific amounts of time.

There will be longer tests most likely soon enough, or at least just longer actual races with prizes.

*Noob alert* First time Race competitor here; is the ladder going to be an option during character customization? Can someone explain that little bit to me? If it's not its own choice, will we be able to use stash items? Just don't want to get DQ'd or miss the race due to ignorance!

Thanks

2 US timeslot races and 2 EU timeslot races seems fair to me! That EU gets the most exciting races is just a bonus.
I appear to be living in "Romance Standard Time". That has to be good! :)
