Ok with the new DLC out on a few people coming back to the game I thought to myself why not have a little tournament.Now depending on how many we can get  you can bring a friend or 12 no need to be signed up to this site but will help if they are/do(Saints will bake them a muffin)

Ok how I'm thinking of doing this SL can be from 100-125 no more no less but 120 is ideal have the red soap stone for easy summons it will most likely be held in the painters world but im up for other options.
One host will summon two reds it will then be a 3 round fight an points will be giving to the winner each round so you can get a total of 3 if you win all 3 fights an if you get a flawless victory a bonus point will be given depending on how many we get might have to put a few groups I'll ask Axe really nice to set up a draw.

The host will swap between the 3 until all 3 have faced each other I have seen played in a tournament done like this before an is the best way to go as far as I have seen.

A few rules might help so none of the listed items can be used an tactics
No hornet ring, just going for back stabs, please no mask of the father havles ring heavy armour builds that is boring.

All weapons can be used so no problem there also no spamming WOG an no tranquil walk of peace you can use a stone great sword but not its AOE TWOP can use what ever spells any you think should be removed post below.
You may use more then one build Max of 3 but once you use a build to start a 3 round  fight you may not swap out.

As a final note any an all suggestions are welcome this is just a base an can be changed so post away an tell your friends.

Do we know whether you can invade/summon players Without DLC yet? If you can, i would suggest banning DLC weapons just to keep things a little more even. New Magic/pyro should be banned, since you know, its OP as FC#K! Armour shouldn't be a problem since there's nothing to powerful in terms of armour eh?

As for locations, not sure if there's anywhere else that isn't extremely popular for invading/close to a bonfire..
I'd also suggest summon a sun bro if there's one available just to watch the door incase someone crashes our party like the blues loved to invade.

That being said, if the party is crashed, if either of red summons take damage, both players are to heal once they've defeated the party pooper and start again, which will screw over people using Sunlight/Dark moon blade users but eh.

Great stuff Drags .  You've now got your own forum, and there's a lot of interest in Dark Souls, so I'd say you'll have no trouble drawing a crowd .

In terms of what we'll need to get an Events page up, get it on SITREP and plug it at other sites:

• A name, so we can get a funky banner;
  
• An idea of when it'll start and finish, and how long the matches might take;
  
• The timing for the matches - setting a sensible default 'fallback' time is always a good approach;
  
• A sign-up thread .
  
• An example for posting results, so that people have got an idea what they should be doing .
  
• An idea of how it might be set up (round-robin, elimination, whatever) - this can be flexible, but it's a good idea to have your options in mind before getting people to sign up.
  
• Refined rules and the like, but it sounds like you and Saints are well underway on this .

Anything you need me to do to help, just say the word .  I would recommend getting participants to sign up at the site, though, otherwise you'll have to push the draw and info out over the PSN, which is a right pain in the arse.  No pressure on any of this, it's your baby, just trying to help .

Fights can last from anywhere between 1min and 5mins. Though the major problem is summoning as sometimes it does take a while for signs to appear. So probably a 60-90 min session to get all fights done for the week granted all members are on.

Would have to wait for input from others before declaring an official rule set though

Stupid SL restriction sigh. My mains at 145 right now haha. Strictly a counter-PvP / PvE character (trophy whore).

I'll quickly create and level up a character up to 125 though, just need a few days.

Things up for discussion to be banned

Armour

• All heavy armour (Mainly Havel)
  
• Family masks (Child, Mother and father)

Weapons

• All DLC weapons Incase there are players without it, just to keep it on an even playing field
  
• While the Stone great sword is allowed, It's 2-handed R2 attack (Twop) isn't.

Magics

• All DLC Magic
  
• TWOP
  
• WoTG

Misc Items

• Hornet Ring
  
• Havel's Ring

Tactics

• No Back stab fishing. If they leave themselves open for a BS after an attack, then doing so is quite Alright. Just none of the constant circling I'm sure we're all used to.
  
• No healing during a fight. Healing is only to take place before and after a fight.

Just getting somewhat of a proper list out so people can see whats for discussion. If you disagree with something thats on the list, or want something banned thats not on the list already, speak up!
