Event: EU World Boxing Championship

“So you think you’re a tough guy, eh?
You think you’ve got what it takes to make it in the ring?
Come on then, tough guy, show me what you’re made of!
Let’s see if you’ve got what it takes to be a champion!”

Entropian Events present…

The First
Entropia Universe
World Championship Boxing Tournament

A knockout PvP boxing tournament to find out who are the greatest fist-fighters on Calypso.

We begin on Saturday 9 August, and we go till the last challenger falls and only champions remain.

The tournament is open to all, and free to enter. Your only cost will be a few PEDs in fist decay, and the weight system means that players will be matched against similarly-skilled avatars.

There are no set times or dates – fixtures will be arranged according to player availability.

In short, there are no excuses for not entering this event! Sign up, tell your friends to sign up, and let’s make this big!

Conditions of Entry

Entrants will be split into weight divisions depending on their Health:

Flyweight: Up to 100 Health
Lightweight: 100-125 Health
Welterweight: 125-150 Health
Middleweight: 150-200 Health
Heavyweight: 200+ Health

Players will be required to prove their current Health at a ‘weigh-in’ by posting a screenshot here showing their current Health before a match. Heavyweight and Welterweight competitors do not need to do this (except in the case of an ‘over-weight’ Welterweight player – see below).

Players’ Health is likely to increase during the course of the tournament, so players will be allowed to play ‘over-weight’ by up to 3 Health points, as long as they start the tournament in the correct weight division. There is no penalty for being ‘under-weight’. If you think you are likely to go ‘over-weight’ by more than 3 points, you should enter the higher weight category.

Example: Oleg joins the Welterweight division and starts the tournament with 147 Health. By the semi-final he was reached 152 Health and is allowed as an ‘over-weight’ player. But by the final he has 154 Health and is disqualified – he should have entered the Middleweight category!

Since new players’ Health increases very quickly, we will try to complete the entire Flyweight competition in a single day or two at the beginning of the tournament.

How to Enter

To enter the competition, make a post in your thread giving your full avatar name, your Health (no need for a screenshot yet) and the weight division you would like to enter.

You may also post on behalf of a friend who wants to enter (e.g. if they have no forum account), but remember that ‘weigh-in’ screenshots will need to be provided later.

There is no entry fee.

The deadline for entry is Saturday 2 August.

Prizes

The prize fund for this event is growing all the time!

Currently each of the five division winners will receive:

A unique customised T-shirt commemorating the victory, courtesy of EntropiaOutfitters.com
A customised forum signature made by Globex Designs
50 PED
7000 EFD (thanks to Jimmy B and Joser)
The glory of being a world champion!

In addition:

The Lightweight winner will receive a Manticore Deathbringer Mentor Edition (thanks Joser!)
The Flyweight winner will receive a beginner's mining kit worth 100 PED (thanks Kosh!)

If you are interested in sponsoring a prize, please PM me to discuss it or simply post here in the thread.

Match Rules

The tournament follows a knockout format, with ties decided by random draw before each round in each weight division.
Dates and venues for matches will be announced in this thread.
Depending on the number of entrants in each division, some players may receive a bye in the first round. These will be decided by random draw.
Matches consist of up to 5 rounds, each lasting 3 minutes.
If one player dies within 3 minutes, his opponent is awarded a win by knockout for the round. If both players are still alive at the end of the round, the player with the highest proportion of health remaining (as determined by the judge by looking at the player’s on-screen health bars) will be awarded a win on points.
Any player leaving the ring during a round will forfeit the round to their opponent.
The winner of the match is the first player to win 3 rounds.
The final round will consists of up to 15 rounds, with the winner being the first player to win 8 rounds.
Armour or healing is not allowed during a round. Players may of course heal between rounds.
The only weapon allowed is the Castorian EnKnuckles-A (TT Powerfist), except in the Heavyweight division where players may use any Powerfist.
In case of any dispute, the judge’s decision is final. We reserve the right to disqualify any entrant in the event of suspected or proven cheating or foul play.

PUT ‘EM UP, TOUGH GUY!

It is summer and my t-shirt still hasn't turned up, so I may as well show off my perfect physique.

Health 128.

I'd really like to enter flyweight, but it's against the rules so I'll go for lightweight
