Citizens,
Elimination 2019 is now available for entry.
This event sees 12 teams fight each other for 'Tickets'. Once the Elimination period begins, the team with the least tickets loses a life every hour. If a team hits 0 lives, they are eliminated.
A range of updates have been implemented for this year...
- Twelve brand new teams are available.
- Pot luck team selection option added, which joins the player to any random team even if it's full.
- Statistics page added which shows graphs of Tickets & Lives, and a list of recent lives lost.
- Teams will now be eliminated when they reach 0 lives (not the tick after 0 lives).
- Leave option has been added which becomes available after the entry period.
- Teams now start on 30 lives.
- Warmup period is now 24 hours instead of 72 hours.
- Tie-breaker is no longer based on lowest number of lives, but instead lowest total attacks.
- Team lists now have an option to filter unavailable targets.
Please note, there is a possibility that service may be unstable during the first few days. It is difficult to predict the scale of load and how our systems will handle it. We'll be watching closely and making optimisations as the event unfolds. Considering everything went fairly smoothly last year, and there are no core changes to the processes this year, we're fairly optimistic.
For more details on updates and changes for this year's Elimination, please see the newspaper article.
Thanks.
