View source for Gaming Knights (Guild)/Event Week

='''Event Week!'''=

There has been some changes made to the order of events, at the beginning of the month. We are changing the Attendance Check and other guild events, from the first of the every month, to the first week of every month. It will be referred to as, '''"Event Week"''' (If anyone has any better names, please let us know)'''.'''

=='''How "Event Week" works...'''==
*Spanning over the weekdays (that's Mondays to Fridays), the monthly "Event Week" consist of organized events, made by the higher Officers and Guild Masters of the guild, for guildies of Gaming Knights and everyone else to participate. '''Some of the organized events are only available for certain days, like Mondays only; Thursday and Fridays only; etc.'''.

*The monthly "Event Weeks" '''always begin in the first Monday of the month''', so it can begin in different weeks, depending on the calendar layout.

*If you do not own one of the requirements in the boxes below and you cannot obtain them within the time for the event, we will allow you to wear '''armor or helms''' that resemble or are equal in stats in place of the required items. This will not be a reoccurring thing so please, gather the requirements '''as soon as possible!'''

We will also try to conduct the Attendance Check throughout this week, so if you can't be on during Monday and Tuesday, you will still be checked of as being active. However, the main days we will have it are Mondays and Tuesdays. If you are not familiar with these events, please refer to the details of the available events below. Also, if anyone has any ideas on guild events, please refer to either '''Head GM, Gamer-Troopa''' or '''Head Officer, Cool-Knight.'''

Sadly, some people can't be on during this time, so if you can't, let the Head Officers or GMs know and '''we will arrange for you a small Event Week for you'''. It will be purposed to be just for you, but if others can't be on during regular Event Week, or you just want to join for more fun, you may join as well! We can't leave anybody behind, so expect Event Week to come to everybody!
 
We have decided that there will be '''2 times for you to do an event a day''', '''Once with GM Gamer-Troopa (Gamer's group should start around 4:00pm SGT) and once with GM Jonbottron (Jon's group should start around 7:00pm EST).''' There is no '''set time''' that we start a certain event, as long as there's 3 people that want to do it, we will start. If you do not make it in time for the '''signing up''' period, better luck next time, the only other time you will be able to do an event not on the event day, is during Fridays of Event Week. Below is a link to '''convert our time zones into your time zone''':

'''Any guildies''' that have a friend that may want to join, tell them come on! We don't discriminate here, so '''ALL''' people are allowed to join in the festivities.

"Due to the changes made during the "Battle Sprites" update, as of 30th July, there will be changes made to the guild missions hosted, to accommodate the new changes made in the update." '''Gamer-Troopa'''

We try to make Event Week a '''fun and festive time''' for '''everyone''' in the guild and in the community so be excited when the first of the month comes! :D

= '''Speedrun Challenge!''' (Mondays - Fridays) =
'''"Legend has it, that there exist a community of Spiralians, who devoted their lives to their made-up sport, which they would refer to as "Speedrunning". They devote their lives to finish expeditions as quickly as possible, by using any means possible to reach the lower depths swiftly."''' (Gamer-Troopa)

The "Speedrun Challenge", which is available during the Event Weeks, is a fast-paced sport, that pits guildies of Gaming Knights, and other knights, to finish the many depths, as quickly as possible and setting the fastest time record, for many others to challenge. Prepare your equipments and get your gaming senses on, because '''it's time to Speedrun!'''

== '''Le Rules of Speedrunning...''' ==
*The goal of each course, is to finish it as quickly as possible, even ignoring common sense, to accomplish such hasty feats.

*You are allowed to '''use any equipment of your choice, in any Speedruns.'''

*You are allowed to perform either '''a solo Speedrun, or a party Speedrun, with up to 3 members per party (1 member is always the recorder).''' When you finish a course, your name, including the other party-members' names '''will be recorded as well as your own/party's timings.'''

*Recordings of speedruns begins from the Arsenal Station areas, and ends upon the defeat of the boss/reaching the elevator for depth 28 of gates. Time taken for transitions between depths will not be included.

*There are no rewards for completing the Speedruns, other than having fun and a heck of a time; enjoy yourself as you aim for the fastest time possible!
