We all love a good tournament, the rivalries, the upsets and the champions even when hardly anyone was rooting for them in the beginning and became the underdog. I -thrive- on these server-wide events but always feel that there’s a good market for the underhand, the bloody and gore-filled inevitability of terrifying odds - so I make this thread to see where the realm lies on the idea!
By bloodsports I mean similar kinds of tournament arrangements but instead of perhaps first to three hits, it’s first to near dismemberment? First to knock-out? Perhaps stakes on the line, hosted by not a representative of a nation but a third party that’s very fast and loose about the health and safety.
I myself am a little biased toward a bit more chaos and calamity, that’s just my jam and itch to scratch but I am tempted to host/organise something a little more on edge for entertainment, raise the stakes and all but I am well aware people are attached to their characters (as am I!) but not seeking character death every round. I don’t think that’d garner much interest.
A bit of maiming, blood loss and potentially rivals to make for the ages is what I’m wanting to garner here - is there a market, or perhaps just a fluke of an idea. Let me know!
Also - if there are any who are skilled in organising large-scale events like these, get in touch. Very happy to shoot back and forths.
