A funnystupid idea

[Madvillain]

I am worried (knowing this community) that it will end up in a big drama because people will say : ''That faction is OP because they have number one!!!! QQ QQ''

wait and see

It should be an ID, and that ID should bar joining any faction - it has to be a unique Freelancer ID, in essence.

Second, the ID switch can be done by admins. Setup a pinned thread somewhere, where the person who got the blue message, can post screens, just like a bounty claim.

Then admins can go in a switch the ID's.

As for cap gank - kill can only be collected by snub, and any caps who join in can be in violation of the contest.

As for snub gank - if the guy is so good as to be number 2, im sure he can handle it, Afro got ganked all the time.

Why don't you just set up a competition in Connecticut and divide it into ship classes? Have a round robin that decides the 4 best fighters of each group. Have a semi-final event for all the different ship classes, then the final and award the winner with a PVP championship and entry into the next competition.

Would work if the IDs stay in Conn, I guess.

Otherwise it probably will take 3 to 5 days until number 2 gets ganked to hell any time he logs on. Or number 2 will get lots of ingame oorp PMs going "plz lug numbur 2 i wan numbeh 2 id" if the player logs some other char. Maybe.

Though, if there'd be any RP happening with those two IDs, it'd still be 90% bragging rights. In or outside conn. But that's important, I understand.

Hmm...for me there are too many things that are speaking against that idea. Though, it may be something new. But no. A good warrior, who knows he is good, doesn't shout it everywhere that he is the best. It'd would be bragging to fly around with such an ID, the chin higher than the head itself, thinking they are the kings, meaning it's completely necessary for people who like to stay in the middle of everyone, wanting attention. Not very wise for such a good warrior, in my own opinion.

Also...since this is a RP server and not a PvP server, I would wonder how such an ID would look inRP. It might sound like one who is not that good in PvP is just whining about that. But it's not. An ID like that wouldn't make sense for me. And it doesn't mean, that the then "best PvP player" is really the best, cause I believe there are people who don't like to brag with their true skills.

I honestly cannot imagine, after thinking about all those points, that an uber PvP ID should be given. I fail to see where the positive aspects of that should be, except for the 'fun in PvP'.

Just what I thought when reading this.

That can be done too but it hasnt got anything to do. The original idea suposes inRP posibilities.

Well ideally you want to give the ID's randomly to begin with. I mean regardless of who they start off with they'll eventually get to the best anyway. Plus it means people like me who arn't so great at PvP have the chance to get involved. Even if I only get to hold one of them for 10 seconds.

I think it would be more ideal if it was alongside your normal ID. Only unmountable (So you drop it on death) and parts of it override your normal ID. (Such as whos allowed to attack you and who you're allowed to attack)

It can and does have RP possibilities, just not in the way you're thinking of. Think of it like a tournament, like the one in Dublin, except that was a race and this is a fight. For your idea to work, you don't actually need IDs, you just need a place and time to set it up. The champion has to defend their title every couple of weeks and if he/she loses, a new champion is crowned, so on and so forth. Yada yada, yalaalalalalalalla! Die! Champion also gets bragging rights I suppose? And you will have a number of champions based off each of the ship classes, allowing for them to spread the tournament far and wide.

An idea just popped into my head. Why not make an inter-house PVP championship? 5 house tournaments, taking place in each house respectively, with each tournament set up like suggested before, with a round robin and then quarters, semis and finals. Then allocate points for 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th position, decreasing as you go down in positions and then the one with the most points at the end of the 5th and final tournament earns the champions crown/cup.
