This league has Cutthroat and Hardcore enabled, when you die to enemies of any type you will be moved to Default league.
A summary of hardcore Cutthroat rules:
- This is a separate short-duration league that has its own stash (as usual). At the end of the event, characters and stashed items will be moved to Hardcore.
- There's a PvP damage multiplier because players start with a lot more life than they do damage. This multiplier will be adjusted substantially based on feedback from this event and others.
- Players are hostile by default to players who are not in their party.
- You can ctrl+click on the entrance to an area to use the Instance Management screen to manually enter any other player's instance of an area.
- Cut-throat instances can hold a maximum of 12 players.
- This is a hardcore league. When you die, you will be moved to default league, you lose the normal experience penalty for your difficulty plus 30% of your current level. You also drop all inventory and equipped items. Your flasks, skill gems (even ones in your inventory) and quest items are not dropped.
- If you were killed by another player, your lost experience is split among their party.
- If you attempt to abruptly leave the game in a non-town instance, you have to wait 5 seconds and are unable to move or use flasks.
- The grace period of invulnerability upon entering an area is 20 seconds. This should start once the player is mostly done loading.
- Non-partied players only show up on the map if they're nearby.
- There are no notifications for players joining or leaving areas.
- Portals cannot be used until they have been up for five seconds.
- You cannot apply microtransaction effects to items in cut-throat. You may dance and have pets.

points should be a level/kills combo
something like:
1 point for level 5
2 points for level 8
3 points for level 12
and regardless of this, some kind of kill point scaling, such as:
5 kills - extra point
15 kills - extra 2 points
30 kills - extra 4 points
60 kills - extra 8 points
or something similar. it makes much more sense in my eyes.

i don't like the idea of turning cutthroat races into PvP races.

I agree with OP. I like the current mix.
I think something should be done about high lvl players camping terraces to kill lvl 3 players starting a second character. Maybe a cap on lvl difference in the same instance? +/-3 lvls?

There should be PvP tracking. Both the names and lvl's of your kills and of the people who killed you. You know, for future vengeance!
