Atrus Manus Hosted Event!
Hey everybody! This is Basketsin (if you don't know who I am you probably don't play on Pegasus Server). Anyway let's cut to the nitty gritty. I'm hosting a level 50 event in the Marshes Arena, you know the one where you had to beat up the Marshes guys? Critters is going to grace us with her presence and allow us to have a great time.
The Breakdown: Okay, this is basically what is going to happen. We are going to have teams of 3 fight spawned mobs and we're going to time them. After several rounds we'll take the average time and whoever has the fastest time is the Winner!
The Rules: Your team must consist of 3 unique classes. This will prevent 3 spy or 3 engineer teams from dominating, and promote better team dynamics. If one of you members dies you will have 30 seconds added to your time, and each member that dies after that will add another 15 seconds to your time. Turrets will not be allowed to be set up before the match begins.
The Prizes: All participants will receive white dye, and the winners will receive a Beret, 1000 assault tokens, and 1000 defense tokens, and if that wasn't enough there might be even more prizes!
The When & Where: Saturday, May 3rd 6:00 PM EST Pegasus server in Marshes Arena.
The Sign Up: Either post in the on the event thread as a group of 3 or post here lfg, and we'll take down your names. Everyone should get ready as this will be a great event! Sign ups are due Friday, May 2nd 6:00 PM EST

Friday Night Fights
What a night it was at Friday Night Fights as we originated from the Orion server and presented the very first FNF 2 on 2 tournament, "Wildcard Night"! From a field of twelve eager fighters we created six teams through random pairings and our fighters did not disappoint, especially after the tournament in a very special "Added Attraction" match.
In the preliminary fights: Morse & Vargost fell to the might of Freedan & Vadik and Patton & Vanucass defeated the team of Koolaid & Machka.
In the Semi-Finals: Sheperd & Andriss defeated Freedan & Vadik and Patton & Vanucass put down Koal & Gummer.
For the Final Match: Patton & Vanucass fought tooth and nail to defeat Sheperd & Andriss and claim the titles of the FIRST FNF 2 on 2 Champions!
As is tradition at FNF, the Champions were given the choice of taking their winnings and walking away or going double or nothing in the Final Challenge match. It didn't take long for Patton & Vanucass to take option one and walk away with their winnings and their heads held high, but that wasn't enough for the crowd of fighters who wanted to see more action so a special "Bonus" match was proposed.
In another FNF first, a Gauntlet match was formed. The match began with two teams, the winning team would then immediately face another team and so on until only one team remained. The results are as follows:
Patton & Vanucast defeated Koolaid & Machka -> Patton & Vanucast were defeated by Sheperd & Andriss -> Sheperd & Andriss defeated Koal & Gummer -> Sheperd & Andriss defeated Freedan & Vadik (Andriss was taken out of the match at one point but Sheperd still held on and won for his team in a 2 on 1 situation) -> Sheperd & Andriss defeated Vargost & Bennet (substituting for Morse).
By this show of force I think it would go without saying that Sheperd & Andriss have earned the right to call themselves the Number One contenders to Patton & Vanucass' 2 on 2 titles. Guess we'll have to see how this develops.
Thanks to all the fighters who turned out tonight. We'll see you next week when we make a stop on Cassie. Don't forget to sign up!
