(OLD) Public Weekend Event #1

THIS REFERS TO THE OLD MARCH-APRIL PUBLIC WEEKEND. THE NEW MAY ONE IS IN A DIFFERENT THREAD.

This is a temporary two hour league with prizes.

It will run from 4pm to 6pm New Zealand time on Saturday (March 31 2012). This is 3am-5am UTC on Saturday March 31. Here is a link for more time zone conversions.

The league will not be hardcore. Deaths are allowed and normal experience penalties apply. NEW CHARACTERS MUST BE CREATED IN THIS LEAGUE TO BE ELIGIBLE. After the end of the league, they'll be moved back into the Default league. The league will be open for character creation 30 minutes before the start of the competition.

Prizes:
At the end of the tournament, we will award the prizes in the Hardcore league on a character that we add to your account. If you want to transfer these prizes to the Default league, then just kill that character.

Our decision on the winners is final. Bugs and mistakes will get in the way for many players and this is why we are running an event like this. If you lose your ability to participate due to a bug, please tell us about it and we'll do our best to fix it. We can't change the outcome of the event due to this.

Cut/paste fail?

This is intentional - it's the same as our other previous non-hardcore events. We give the items in hardcore so that the person who receives them can pick whether to move them to default or not.
