Spawn Event???

[DaHobbit]

I know it has been a long time since we've had a spawn "party", and I miss throwing them. There are still a couple issues with my new spawn event map, but I think I will be giving it a test run this weekend. Stay tuned...

Keep checking the forum for an announcement for the spawn party

The new spawn event map looks something like this. Players will enter the map through a portal (probably on start map), and arrive in the very center. At the center is a set of stairs which allows players to exit the map. %&*(

To enter the spawning areas, players will walk up and pass several signs - these signs will have the event rules posted (which will include no outlaws). You will all be advised to NOT take pets into the spawning areas. You can use the park/door technique to keep pets parked outside of the room, where they will be safe.

You can attempt to enter any room you want, but the doors will automatically send you to the correct room.

Through trial and error, we may need to make adjustments, but the rooms will be divided as such:

Room 1 - all players level 0 - 59
Room 2 - all dwarves level 60+ (this may be the first change we make)
Room 3 - all mages level 60 - 299
Room 4 - all mages level 300 - 999
Room 5 - all mages level 1000+
Room 6 - all archers/ogres/swords level 60 - 299
Room 7 - all archers/ogres/swords level 300 - 999
Room 8 - all archers/ogres/swords level 1000+

If you have any suggestions, please feel free to make them. I cannot make the map bigger, so I may need to make the rooms smaller. I think there are more higher level dwarves than I thought. So I might need to divide the dwarf room in half.

If things do not go as planned, please make suggestions - yelling at me as many have done in past events will not help future events.

Going to be very difficult to run for sure, but what a huge step in making spawn parties fair and fun

hopefully players will be understanding of the learning curve involved in throwing this kind of event, and appreciate the work put into it. hope to see you there

My support is behind.DaHobbit 100%. If there is anything I could.do to help, I would.

Although DaHobbit has already said months ago that my prediction of such spawn parties would one day be like this, I would just like to say, again I was right, being Kalatonian isn't an easy job, but I am glad I am the chosen one.


This if all goes well will most definitely be the fairest way to hold spawn parties.


I do want to add, making fair division for dwarves is going to be the trickiest part.

@ DaHobbit --> KUDOS!

I didn't think there would be an area for me. (lvl -60) WoooHooo

You can use the park/door technique

That's the simple "/wait" command right?

* how can you tell I'm new to all this fun stuff
