Velious Era Best of the Best
 
Has this already happened?

If not, why not?

1) EQEmu had/has extremely poor GM event running tools, making any event a huge hassle even with good design and prep.

2) People are super ungrateful, maybe because they don't realize 1.

tl;dr version: operant conditioning, OP. :o

Post up a registration. Create some rules. Create some brackets.

You’d lack the ability to bestow an in-game title but nerds that have the gear to win a BotB on this server just want the notoriety. You’d also lack the ability to death touch someone breaking the rules, but I’m sure you could hire a few Rogue or Wizard Bouncers to snipe down someone who isn’t following the rules for you.


This. And honestly I wouldn’t be surprised to see GMs get involved once they see someone lay down the organized groundwork. Even if no GM ever came it would be good for the community and general morale.

I'd come on my rogue to stab people who don't listen.

Strongly disagree with this statement. Nothing on the server comes even close to the cool factor of a title

Maybe if someone does the legwork the GM can bestow the title after.

I'd love to do this
I might even really try and set this up if I brainstorm a bit

All complaints should go to Verant.

I think you'll find that is really contingent on the particular title, friend. I had a title once, but, frankly, I prefer my simple, humble "Puppet" surname.

It could be the transmogrification, but I can't imagine I'd feel differently about a BotB title that probably wouldn't even recognize my pirateness!

Now, "the Pirate"? Let's talk. :o
