So, it’s probably about time to announce what most people (but not quite everyone) already knew: this entire event was most certainly an April Fool’s joke. I wouldn’t dream of running it because the rules are completely absurd.
I do plan on still hosting new events in the future, however. The ideas are already in the works. In the meantime, you can sign up for
Team PvP if you want to join an event.
Now, to go over the numerous instances that should have raised suspicion as to why this event was not a serious one…
- The acronym for the event is FUC(K). That was not accidental.
- Card Designers could potentially
design their own card to be used in the event, no matter how imbalanced or overcomplicated, and force poor Fippe to code it into Cygnia, just so it can be used in one match.
- Veterans are allowed help from retired forum members.
- Administrators can
edit their deckbuilding rules to give themselves essentially no restrictions whatsoever.
- Basically everything about the “Italian” role - how they’re considered a separate type of forumer, how they’re a “secret cult,” how their entire language is horribly misrepresented as a “cryptic code,” and how their
deckbuilding rules are written in Italian. This was by far my favorite role to write. It is true, however, that Zanzarino is Italian - that was my inspiration (the original idea was some sort of Cult of Zanzarino).
- The fact that
Nymphomaniacs are an entire type of forumer, plus the fact that they use “immoral or illegal means” to get “Nymphs.” All innuendos were intended here.
- There’s no prize at all for second place, but third place gets a staff title of their choice.
- Lastly, the fact that players were arbitrarily prohibited from signing up for certain factions, based solely on my personal opinions of them.
Apologies to those who thought this was an actual event, but a little attentiveness could have easily dispelled that idea. I’ll see ya’ll for my next event. I’m thinking about either a Star Wars or Game of Thrones theme.
