Hello, everyone. It's been far too long since we had any serious speedrun action in the community. So without further ado, let's kick off 2021 with something spicy, yeah?
WELCOME, TO THE 2021 SPRING TASK FORCE OLYMPICS!
The grand prize this season will be a total of 12 BILLION influence, split between the winning team.
Second place will receive 6 billion.
Third place will receive 3 billion.
Rules, Regulations, & Process:
-No help is allowed from outside your team. That includes league incans, doorsitting kins, etc.
-No more than two of each AT is allowed per team.
-No powersets or ATs are banned. Go nuts.
-No using any exploits that are not available to all players. This includes GM commands that are not available to all players.
-These runs will be hosted on Homecoming, not the test servers. This is indisputable.
-Inspirations ARE allowed.
-Temporary powers ARE allowed.
-Each team will have six players.
-There will be no videos. This will be entirely analog.
-I'll be choosing four random task forces(all level 50/non-shadow shard) for the competition. I won't be posting which ones they are until a week before it begins.
-The average of all four task forces will be taken, and the teams with the lowest times at the end will be victorious.
-The runs will be hosted and run for an entire week. Team leaders/players will DM me their expected times to run, and I, or someone else I trust will show up to make sure there is no cheating. This is to ensure no one feels locked in for a specific day, and all teams can have an entire week, in order to free up schedules and make timing just a bit easier.
-There will be only one run of each task force, with breaks in between to allow cooldowns to refresh. There are NO reruns.
-Once you have started your runs, there is NO swapping characters. For one, it defeats the purpose of 2 ATs per team. There's an intention to this. But I digress, no character swapping between runs. What you have is what you're running with.
The competition will be hosted on the week of February 19th, ending on the 26th.
Winners will be announced Saturday, the 27th.
