Hello all,
I hope everyone that was able to attend the first event of the INS eGO Olympics had a good time. I know things got pretty chaotic at times and with this being the first time that this event was ran its only natural. Remember that the event coordinators try to set things up as quick and as painless as possible. Our job as ECs is to host fun events and it really makes our jobs a lot harder when there are people misbehaving while we are trying to explain something or setup the server. We really just want everyone to enjoy themselves and have fun with the event that is being held.
If your interested in joining the deadline to sign up is Friday the 21st, so hurry up and join! You can sign up HERE and please be sure to read the info above and below the 'Tournament Competitors' list.
Anyways, carrying on...
The next 2 events that are being held will be the Grenade Toss and the RPG Body Launch. I also added a description of the Baghdad Mad Dash event as well, for those who weren't there.
The events will be held on Saturday the 22nd at the same time, 2:00pm EST / 1:00pm CST and like every other event please be in vent 15 minutes before the starting time.
The Grenade Toss will be held on the test_range map in the LEAGUE server. Each player will get best out of 3 tries to throw a cooked grenade as far as they can without crossing/jumping over the sandbags (shown below) If a player crosses/jumps over the sandbags a point will be deducted from their score. The winner of the event will be the competitor who threw a grenade the furthest.
The RPG Body Launch will be held on the test_range map in the LEAGUE server. Each player will get the best out of 3 to launch a random EC or volunteer off the ledge with an RPG (shown below). The winner of the event will be the competitor who launches a body the furthest.
For those who weren't at todays Olympic event...
*Edit: Due to the issues found during this event, myself and Drunkenfetus feel that the Baghdad Mad Dash should not be counted so as to keep everything fair to everyone...
The Baghdad Mad Dash was held on the ins_baghdad map in the LEAGUE server. All competitors are to join the Insurgents team and must drop all weapons once they spawn. 5 competitors will be selected at random to race first. The starting and finish line will be located in front of the pick-up truck by Echo soccer fields. At the sound of a gun shot the competitors will race along the route (shown on the map below) to Alpha where all racers must circle around the statue before heading back to the start/finish line. Players are allowed to jump over obstacles, but must stay on the road at all times during the race. The winner of the event will be the competitor who places 1st in the race.
