New Guild Competition(s)?

Papyrus · 10-20-2011

Guilds are probably one of the most (if not the number one) most popular item within Classic iPhone. Towers and Guild Spar have been huge in the world of iPhone Graal and have served as entertainment and competition on here. However, I have gotten input that these two events have lost their touch, people tell me nobody wants to spend 1000 hours getting towers, or spending a whole night in a lobby waiting to spar in a tournament where the chances are very slim to win. To further improve the game, I think a huge source of entertainment could come from events and competitions from guilds. It could be little things, like adding an enemies list to your guild. Or it could be a big thing, like a huge ranked competition similar to guild spar and towers, which could get major attention from a large percentage of the active iPhone Graal players. I spent some time thinking of possible competitions but I was stumped. I made this thread for people to think of events that guilds could do that would increase the entertainment level of this server. Post away.

I can't think of any events lol, but I like the idea alot.

Hmmm well there is a dead CTF House in North Graal why not put it to good use?
Make it so only guilds may enter and you must have at least X+ members present to enter.
They could easily turn it into a competition, guild v guild.

Also they could make a King of the Hill mode and incorporate that into the existing CTF House.
KOTH as in fighting for a constantly changing zone that is in a wide open area with minimal cover that you fight and defend in order to gain points depending on how long you have control over it. Think Halo or CoD.

And the current CTF map could serve the same purpose for KotH, just add the "Hill" areas into the map.
If they made brand new levels for these modes, even better

PS: adding an "Enemies" list would definitely advocate hate towards another guild even if that isnt it's intended purpose

This isn't an idea for new guild events, but why not move the guild spar to Graal City. Yesterday I tried to guild spar with some friends and ended up waiting a long time without any luck. Since the sparring arena in Graal City is the most popular for single spars, why not expand it to guild sparring which could make it more active and give guilds something else to do.

Maybe they could make an event where there's a huge field of grass and both guilds farm for the most gralats. Here's how it works:

Both guilds spawn in a seperate huge grassy area where they try to farm as many gralats possible before the time runs out. They would have about a 1-5 minute time limit. Baddies spawn and are used as obstacles so it's more difficult to farm and also will drop bombs so the guild can continue farming. The guild works together by fighting off baddies and allowing their teammates to farm. After the time limit runs out, the guild who collected the most gralats wins and the winnings are the gralats collected divided evenly to each team member who participated. The max players for both teams would be about 8-10 players per guild. What do you guys think?

That sounds cool, would be different

There have been so many threads on events/guild events, I bet that it at least caught a large amount of attention. I'm hoping some of this stuff gets added in the near future. And I like the idea Papy.

Why just stop at combat related events for guilds? How about (n) a side guild soccer?

The problem with soccer is that the way the ball moves isn't so much based on skill as it is luck. The times I've played soccer the ball responds to a player "kicking" it by flying off in a direction you probably didn't want it to go.
