Tournament Information found below.

NOTE: It is not too late for you to sign-up/play as some games still need more players for them to be enjoyable, please let me know if you would like to play, either on discord or through a forum message

Tournament Rules (All Games)

• In team games that require a certain amount of players, if your team does not have enough players, you will be autofilled with an Unassigned person. If an Unassigned person can not be found for you, you will have 30 minutes to find a substitute/replacement or you will forfeit that game. If you have any personal problem with the person I have assigned to you, please let me know well in advance so I can find a new person.
• If you are Unassigned I have tried my best to put you in a team, likely with other Unassigned people, however some people may miss out or have to sub into team games and purely act as fill in's
• Tournament brackets for team games will be generated and handed out on the day of the competition (so you know who you will be vsing on the day)
• No form of external modification, hack or cheat client, or anything else external to that inside the game which would give yourself an advantage is permitted unless stated otherwise. You will be community banned if caught.
• On the day of the games, listen to myself and/or any other helper/organiser and follow these tournament rules and the rules of the specific games or you will be not permitted to play
• Please try your best to arrive 15-30 minutes prior to the Time of Start in the respective tournament channels on Discord so I can work out if you need an unassigned person assigned to your team and so I can work out unassigned teams.
• Please review the Roster's link below, if there are any mishaps or you are not where you should be, please let me know prior to the tournament so I can work it out.

I reckon we should also do some of these games in teams (duos or something, duos would be the most ideal), such as 2v2 custom games in siege

This will be the case, some of the tournaments will be solos (among us - if it is ran) and some will be duos/groups

I will be looking at hosting a variety of game night competitions next year with a wide range of rewards from in game server rewards like donation packages, credits, points and/or xp to out of game rewards such as teamspeak/discord tags or even gift cards if popularity is gained. Please vote on the attached poll - if you have any other game suggestions to be added please pm me or leave a comment. If not enough popularity is gained, these events will not be ran; therefore please vote on the games you would like to see if you want the tournaments to be ran. 

Poll will close on the 4th of January 2021.

Thanks @Higashi for inspiring this

As a reward for wholesomeness, giving gifts will now reward you with a random assortment of xp, credits and points

Oh yea and if you wanted to give a donation item just donate for it and message me as I’ll have to do it manually

Happy holidays to all

For this Christmas the annual event is centred around the act of giving gifts.

Starting tomorrow you may give gifts to anyone who has played the server before, in the gifts you may include a wholesome message (keep it wholesome and under 200 characters, these will be monitored and all rules apply), credits, points and a point shop item. Note that you do not have to gift anything and may just leave the person a kind message.

These gifts may be opened on the 25th of December so start giving gifts fast!

Commands:

!gift or /gift - open gifting menu

!opengifts or /opengifts - open your gifts (December 25th)

Once again happy holidays, maybe you will see some Christmas presents spawning if Santa comes early.

1. Every medical item is in the #2 equip slot

This is a really basic problem but is incredibly irritating. A medics primary task is healing. The hardest part of the healing should not be cycling through the 2 slot 15 times in combat in order to get bacta/stim or whatnot. There are free equipment slots in the loadout. Put some of the healing stuff on the other slots. Especially the combat healing stuff.

2. Defibs

I'll talk more about defibs later. But at the very least the UI needs to be reworked so that its actually obvious when they are charged. The difficulty in being a medic shouldn't come from the UI.

3. Stim/bacta nades/extra hp

Currently bacta nades reset any temp hp whether that be event characters or stims. This was an issue in 2017 that was solved in 2018..... Very unsure why its an issue again. Bacta nades are powerful and obviously shouldn't be getting spammed. However, the reason to not use them should not be that you're destimming everyone.

1. I'll look into this later today as a quality of life improvement.

2. I'll also look into this later today.

3. Fixed

so the ingredients work the same as the easter eggs yeah?

 

You pick them up and throw them in the cauldron and your team gets points

Happy Halloween!

The same event we ran last year for Halloween will run this year, apologies for not making a new event but i've been busy with my final exams. The event will begin tonight and end on the 1st of November. You can find how the event works, what has changed from last year and any other information below.

How it works

It is a team-based competition consisting of three teams; Spooky Skeletons, Boo! Crew and last years victors, Scream Team. You can join a team by heading to the third floor cauldron and pressing E on it. You collect points in various ways (listed below) and the team with the most points by the 1st of November wins. Rewards are given in the following order (highest means better rewards)

1. MVP of Winning Team
2. MVP of Second Team
3. Winning Team Players
4. MVP of Third Team
5. Second Team Players
6. Third Team Players

Yes you read that right, EVERYONE is rewarded for participating, so go ahead and join a team at the cauldron.

Points

• Lottery Wins (in order of Jackpot, Second tier, Third tier) | 100 points, 20 points, 5 points.
• Event Placements (in order of First, Second Third) | 20 points, 10 points, 5 points
• Playing as an Event Character (rewarded by EM) | 20 points
• Completing a mission at IHC | 1 point
• Returning an ingredient to the cauldron | 5 points (only spawn above 15 players)
• Saying the secret word in chat (Halloween and IG related, only one person can redeem this reward. Side Note: Please do not chat spam trying to guess this word, have a few attempts every now and then or I will remove this reward) | 200 points
• Many other ways such as trivia's and other manual events I will run across the course of the event, so be sure to be active and participating in everything!

What's Changed

This time around points will not be publicly displayed for the teams, this prevents what happened last time where the other 2 teams gave up because the gap was too high. It also builds a bit of suspense for when the winners are announced.

Spawning of cauldron ingredients is handled differently

Some other quality of life changes which I hope you will enjoy

Remember to have fun and may the scariest team win!

Well the Quest line should be Tedious that's the point for you to work and work and you get rewarded for that work its not supposed to be something you can complete in a day or two it should be hard/time Consuming. 

What phobia said basically, prestiging is supposed to be a challenge and should take days or weeks of grinding, I already decreased it a few months ago by ~100 npcs in total and so I feel no need to decrease it again.

Ok server is up server.imperialgaming.net:25565 - note that its not going to be fancy or moderated at all compared to the last server because I don't have the time to do so, this does not mean it will be complete anarchy however as I will still ban you for being a dickhead and griefing or w/e, it should also be noted that minimal resources are dedicated to it and if it starts to affect our other services I will just take it down so don't make any extremely laggy creations thanks.
