This August, the America Party will be hosting an Olympics competition for the entire server! This competition will be comprised of several events/games where players will compete either individually or as a part of a team. Players will be required to compete as a part of a group or a nation. The winners (1st place, 2nd place, 3rd place) of each event will receive medals (gold, silver, and bronze, respectively), and the nations with the highest amounts of medals at the end will win the competition, and will receive a grand prize. Prizes will be provided by the Server Admin team and will be announced at a later date. Start thinking about who you would like to form a nation with, and keep an eye out for future posts about this competition! The current events are: Spoiler: Current Events Boat Racing (on ice, AKA Mario Kart) PVP (single, team) Archery Golf Spleef Boat Racing (on water) Hockey (team) Horse Racing Elytra Racing We are allowing players outside of the party to manage and host Olympic events that we are not already hosting. If you are thinking of an event that you would like to see but is not being hosted by us, feel free to form a group of friends and get together what you need for the event. Please keep the following guidelines in mind if you are considering hosting an event: You will be expected to build everything necessary to host the event, and everything must be completed with plenty of time before the event takes place in mid-August. Any event that you apply to host will be thoroughly reviewed by the America Party and ECC's staff, and it is completely up to our discretion of whether we will allow you to host or not. Applying here does not guarantee that you will be picked. If you see someone else has applied here to host the same event you were thinking of, you can still apply*! We will choose whoever seems to be the most prepared to run the event. Games that require a buy in or those that are based completely off of chance are not permitted. This thread will remain open until July 15 to allow plenty of people to see it and plan their event. Team/nation sign ups will begin shortly after this thread is closed. *Exception: You cannot host an event that is being hosted by the America Party, see the above spoiler If you would like to apply to host a new event, please use the following format in the spoiler below and post a comment on this thread: Spoiler: Event Host Application 1. What is the name of the event you would like to host? 2. What players besides yourself will be hosting this event? 3. Do you have a space where you are able to hold the event, and are you able to build the necessary venues for your event? (ex: build a stadium, get a pvp arena set up, etc) 4. Do you, or anyone else in your group have any experience hosting events? If you have any questions, please let me or any other member of the America Party know. The tentative date for the competition is mid-August, probably in the teens or early twenties of the month. We are posting this far in advance in order to allow as much time as possible to coordinate with other people in planning events, as well as to communicate with the amazing staff team to get prizes set up. Have fun, and good luck! This thread closes on July 6, earlier than originally planned.
If you need a spleef arena. I have one built at anime that can be used during the event. Forum pm me if you guys are interested in the future. Depending on the progression of my new town project I also may build more of the event places needed in the future however, not sure if I will be around to host but can add owners during events.
I have a spleef arena, two pvp arenas and a Mario kart course at /warp la_ciudad. Feel free to check them out and see if that's something you can work with
I have a town that Iv been meaning to build some stadiums in, if anyone needs some space, forum pm me.
I am looking forward to this awesome event! a_man and team have put a lot of thought and effort into the planning of this server event. Please plan on attending if at all possible.
Thanks everyone for their enthusiasm and for those of you who volunteered to help, we will contact people for help as it is needed. I will be updating this thread as things change moving on. Keep an eye out for another post a few weeks out from the event to sign up!
We are not going to have any events that require a buy in or that are completely up to chance, so we will not allow casino hosting to be an event.
https://www.ecocitycraft.com/forum/threads/where-do-you-keep-your-horses.166324/ Please vote if you are thinking about participating in the horse racing event.
Update: If you are thinking about hosting an event, you have until July 15 to post here with your event proposal, this thread will be locked on that date. This is so we have plenty of time to make sure all the venues are set up properly and the events are able to run smoothly. Players will be able to officially sign up with their team shortly after this thread is closed. @Drewbo_ and @EvasivePeach3 are assisting with the horse racing.
We might be able to provide some rentals, more information about this will be released closer to the event.
Just a reminder for everyone, if you would like to host your own event, you have about 2 weeks left to do it, this thread will close and another will open for team and nation sign ups on July 15
