Introducing the Mini MFO League - Magic Find Competition
Hey guys, welcome to another MF competition to keep us going until the Summer MFO in a few months!
This competition will feature a lovely combination of everything that's good about the various different MF competitions we've done Let's get straight down to it:
Rules
- On three consecutive weekends, we will run first Level 85 Areas, then Pindleskin, then Travincal. The A85 and Pindle portions will be just like in the MFO, hunting for high scoring Sets/Uniques. The Travincal portion will be a rune hunt. The first category, A85, will begin on Friday May 27.
- You run as much as you want/can during each weekend. Running starts 00:01 on Friday your local time, and ends on 23:59 on Sunday your local time.
- To make it easier for everyone to participate, you may run in the week if it's more convenient for you. If you wish "your" clock to start at another time, you must announce it in this thread before you start running. Posting "I'm starting at midnight on Wednesday" at 23:00 on Tuesday night means you will now run from 00:01 Wednesday to 23:59 Friday. Posting "I'm starting at midnight on Wednesday" at 03:30 on Wednesday also means you're running from 00:01 on Wednesday to 23:59 on Friday. Basically I want to make sure people can run when it's most convenient for them, otherwise the weekend is the "official" time for running.
- Edit: It has come to my attention it's Memorial Day this weekend in the US. Feel free to run Saturday - Monday this first weekend (A85 areas) if it works better, I don't want to inconvenience anyone. Other than that, normal rules still apply.
Scoring
- Your top 5 high scoring qualifiers count, just like in the MFO or the MF League.
- Email me at fabbe _ sjoblom @ hotmail . com with your top 5 (no readouts necessary, just the results) as soon as you're done running that category. Please include your 5 qualifiers and their scores, as well as your forum name. Please don't wait with emailing me the results, it literally takes 2 minutes, and not doing it makes us all wait for you.
- First place in a category scores 5 points in the total standings. Second place scores 4 points, etc. Fifth place scores 1 point. The overall winner will be the person with the highest total points after all three categories are played.
Prizes
- First place in the A85 and Pindle category gets to choose ONE qualifier from any other participant in that category. If the person getting looted has a good excuse for really wanting to keep that item, he may keep it. This is mainly because I don't want new players being scared of entering if they might lose that one Unique they're searching for. Please be considerate, I'm sure this will work just fine.
- No looting will take place in the Travincal category, keep the runes you find
- The overall winner after all three categories are done will also receive a prize from me, still to be determined. I'm thinking it might be something like a high rune, or a DWeb, or something.

Rules for the Lazy
- Run three categories on each of three consecutive weekends, starting this Friday
- Normal MFO rules apply for each category. Normal MF League rules apply for the Total Standings
- In the MFO categories, the winner gets to loot one item, nothing more. The winner of the Total Standings also gets a prize
That's it! We'll use this thread for sign-up, trash talking (encouraged!), progress thread, posting total standings, etc etc, for all categories. No need to clog up the forum with 5 threads about this. If you'd like to participate, just post in this thread saying so If you're late to the party, join in anyway You might not get points in the Total Standings for the first category, but you can still show people how it's done at Pindle's and in Travincal! Winning the individual categories is as prestigious as winning the overall category, anyway!
I hope to see plenty of new MF competition faces in here. It's a pretty chill environment (though certainly competitive, make no mistake!), give it a shot Any questions, feel free to ask, and thanks for reading!
