Chicken Fight!

[Falkor]

That's right - it's time for WP's 2nd Annual Chicken Fight! Actually, we missed a year but I'll still call it "annual"

Get your best chicken leveled up and ready to take on other birds next Saturday (April 12th) to see who's got the meanest chicken. Just regular chickens please - no bio pets!

I'll post the exact time of the event as we get closer to the date.

Sounds fun. Can it be after 4pm eastern time as i have to work that day until 3:00

[Falkor]

Let's say 7:00 pm shard time, which is 10:00 pm eastern. That should be a good middle ground for all US time zones.

Mmmhhh..., this will be 3 or 4:00 am in France, so I probably won't be online.
I sincerely hope you people will have a great funny chicken party !

That was fun ... Thanks falkor . Neidling I didn't win

[Mesmerize]

Was fun but next time could the rules be explained better. It said normal chicken as most of us thought this meant no extras added to help it... just train it up and that was it. Adding powerscrolls in my opinion does not make this a normal trained up chicken... as i am not whining here cause my chicken lost but i and others feel it was a bit unfair.

[Brogan Ironfist]

To reply on the issue of Hel-gar's enhanced chicken as alot of people have commented in game, i have only a few words to say.

First, GM Falkor laid out the rules. no Bio's. Just regular trained chickens. having said that, and understanding this i trained up my chicken to max level and did not add potions, pet power scrolls, or give it any advantage other than its normal powers and stats it would get by distributing the points as i felt it might need to endure the match. I do beleive and feel that everyone did the same with the exception of Hel-Gar.

I think that in the future, clarity of rules could help promote a better and more fair competition within the shard and not have people exploiting event play. My two cents.
