Hello fellow PokeMMO players. I have been planning this for a long time and have finally come up with my (hopefully atleast on a monthly basis) *drum roll*...
Great Magikarp Splash Struggle Battle!
What am I even talking about? How will it work? You're lame. Go away please? "All" these questions will be answered.
First of all: it's a tournement *shock* where I will give every person who registers a FREE random Magikarp!!!
Currently the competition's start date is set for next Saturday (09/02/2017) at 7:00 pm EST, but registrations are OPEN NOW!
Early registration??? Yes, because of how the betting system will work.
Let me explain the RULES: Each player will have time to give their gifted Magikarp a nickname. Inbetween the time of Magikarp distribution and the beginning of the tournament, the betting tables will be open. Anyone can bet. This includes all competitors aswell.
Since this might sound a little confusing, here are the restrictions and some examples to clarify the betting system:
Max. limit of betting: 250k Pokeyen total.
Max. amount of players to bet on simultaneously: Up to five players total. Example 1: You can bet 50k on player X and 200k on player Y. Example 2: You can bet 250k on player Z. Example 3: You can bet 50k on Player V, W, X, Y & Z.
Final word of rules: EVERY single Magikarp will know ONLY Splash and they are all speed tied. No PP Max. or anything else allowed. Anyone caught cheating is disqualified and everyone who placed a bet on that player will lose their bets and shame the DQ'd person forever.
Now to what everyone REALLY wants to know about: PRIZES!!!
FIRST PLACE: 1,000,000 Pokeyen or a 1000 RP item of choice from the gift store (yeah because I am able do that sometimes)
SECOND PLACE: A lucky egg that should get more people interested lol
3rd/4th: leftovers just like youuuuuuu
All other competitors will be compensated with the magikarp they received...congrats
The betting pool will be split into following dimensions: 90% of the total jackpot will be divided fairly* amongsts all players that placed their bets on the WINNING Magikarp. Fairly* means that if you placed 150k on the winning Magikarp, you will get a higher share of the Jackpot than someone who placed only 50k on that same Magikarp.
The remaining 10% goes to those that helped me organize this event.
This tournament will be hosted by none other than myself: notthemaster, chief editor and president of not being a master.
P.S. If I'm not here during the day of the tournament begin (due to possibly unforseeable hurricane damage that forces me to travel to Texas for a few days), the bets will be distributed as soon as I return or alternatively I might put the player lotobby in charge.
