I'm in for it. EDIT: Oops. All my names are Distuth (Including MC username), except for my skype, which is dissonant.harmonics

Personally, I'm more in favor of a more GM/Event Team involvement. I'll admit I might be slightly biased in that regard. However, I'm a little confused as to why the two need be separate in the first place. There is absolutely nothing stopping a player from creating their own events, without the event teams help. I'm not sure why the question is phrased as if the choice is between players creating events and GMs/Event Team creating events. It seems to me that a better question is "What do you expect from events? How would you prefer events to happen?"

No. Just...No. This is what happened with towns in Asulon. All they had to do is get some schmuck to write up a charter and some other schmucks to sign it and they had a whole town all to themselves. Problem was, most of these guys didn't know how to run it. By the time the map file went down, most of those were abandoned, or so sparsely populated they might as well have not bothered. This is a BAD idea.

Seems alright so far. I'm not so sure about the tick part though. There's going to be issues with that. It'll cause a lot of death just because there aren't that many caves out there that they can find safety in. I don't know if its possible, but could we set up a "windchill" sort of thing, making the ticks only start if you've been in the region too long? That way, when they find a fire, they can go back out? That would let us control what areas are open to them, as all we need to do is create more fires or caves. Oh. I've also got something of a guide up. I'll show it to you next time I get a chance.

I'm happy to work on whatever needs doing. I'm not so great with building things like drake skulls, but I'm quite good at terraforming, and generally making things natural. I'm very good with ice, in particular.

Oopsie. Ignore this.

We aren't giving up on the Event though. Its just...delayed.

This already exists. http://www.lordofthecraft.net/forum/index.php?/topic/42676-the-asulon-tournament/

I believe the proper phrase for this situation is huzzah. I'm glad my app was accepted. I'm looking forward to working with you guys. Heres to (hopefully) not strangling each other during the inevitable arguments!

Uh....one problem. Weren't slimes removed? So how is the playerbase going to get slimeballs in the long run?

True enough. I just did a bit of a comparison between the two...And then went through about 3 years of forum roleplay where everyone and their mother (who, no matter the setting, somehow had a Japanese name) was using a katana to slice through full platemail like butter. So I might have been slightly antagonistic towards that weapon. I'm glad to know theres at least a basis for their use other then "OMG I'm a ninja guys!" (Most of the people using katanas called themselves ninjas. It only added to the hate.)
