Join Ahni in the Marketplace (RDI) as she brings back the Megacast! The fun starts at 9pm by the Eastern Clock on Sunday, August 2nd! The Sassy Owl Saloon will be catering, so expect lots of yummy food and drinks! Not sure how the Megacast works? That's okay, here are the rules!
♦ It's everyone vs. everyone else!
♦ Each participant gets 10 HP and 4 MP. MP are your mod points -- they represent and work the same as normal foci. Once your HP runs out, you are eliminated from the Ring.
♦ At the start of each round, you will pick two spells and a target. The first spell is the primary spell, and it stands as your offense. The other spell is the secondary spell, and it's used to defend against others' primary spells if you are targeted. For this incarnation of the Megacast, Nether Ray, Immolation, and Elemental Fury are not allowed. The target is just that -- where you're aiming that primary spell!
♦ There will be a "turn order" set before the Megacast starts, and it will determine the order that spells are considered to be casted. This matters mostly in the case where more than one person attacks a single duelist. So in a brawl where the order is Ahni, Carbuncle, Titan, and Garuda, if Ahni and Carbuncle both attack Titan, Ahni's primary spell will be matched against Titan's secondary spell, and Carbuncle will hit Titan unhindered. After each round, the turn order is shifted forward by one duelist -- so whoever went first in one round will go last in the second.NOTE: An example of an accepted cast per round is as follows -- 1. Mage Bolt - Ahni / Mind Whip
♦ Instead of choosing to attack with your primary spell, you have the option to employ a Static Defense -- defending someone instead of attacking them. This is shown by putting SD in front of your target.
♦ 2 minute maximum to cast between rounds, please. This format is not a quick one! Exceeding 2 minutes once will result in a friendly reminder from the caller. Anything after that will result in a null round, meaning no spell was invoked and the opponent's spell scores for maximum damage. After a null round, the duelist is still not allowed to use whatever spell they most recently used -- that way the null round does not serve as a type of disengage. In the case anyone needs more than 2 minutes for an urgent/special circumstance, please alert the caller, opponent, and the room so that they know you need a few minutes and will return.NOTE: An example of an accepted cast per round is as follows -- if Carbuncle wanted to cover Ahni with RF and counter with WB, he would send "2. RF - SD Ahni / WB"
Now for the prizes!
As usual, 1st place will get first pick, 2nd place will get second pick, etc etc.
♦ This fancy rock!
(( OOC note: this is definitely not just a rock ))
♦ Two Celestial Gems!
♦ Fairy in a jar! If you open the jar, she will grant you a wish!
♦ THE MYSTERY BOX
Everyone who participates in the Megacast will receive a box of star sparklers!
