| 2016 Official Vday Thread Feb 20 12:00 to Feb 21 12:00 | Started by: Bunneh on Feb 19, '16 14:20 |

The MR Vday Massacre of 2016 takes place starting Saturday, Feb 20th at 12:00 game time and ending Sunday Feb 21st at 12:00 game time. The event will be broken down into multiple mini events, so a full 24 hour commitment is not needed to compete. V-Day is a killing/evading competition. It is broken down into 8 separate rounds. You can play one round or you can play them all, you do not need to play them all to be competitive. There are a few different goals - all depending on what strategy you want to use. THE INSTRUCTIONS: Every 3-hour round starts off by giving you a fake name. No one knows your fake name so that everyone starts off on an equal footing. Your name is listed in the pink box at the top of your screen. Every round starts off by randomly moving you to a new city. You start off with 100 health. You can lose health by getting shot at, or by the system removing HP over time (Health Degradation). You can gain health by shooting other players, eliminating a player, or jail breaking. You start off each round with a weak gun that does little damage. You can increase the damage your gun does by shooting people or killing them. The more damage it does, the more HP it destroys from your target. You can shoot every 45 seconds. You can fly every 5 minutes. There are no pro times. When you are shooting or being shot at, there is a chance that both of your identities will be revealed to each other. The chances of this happening go up as we get further into the round. A city will close every 45 minutes, slowly funnelling users into one final city. Districts are turned off, you can shoot anyone in the city as a whole. When you die in vday, you are put back into the regular game. You don't actually die. The regular game has some things turned off, like wacking - this avoids accidents. Wacking is turned off for 45 minutes after vday to make sure everyone stays alive. The vday version of the game has some things turned off like Drugs, because of the 5 minute flight timer, you can not deal drugs. (Think of the billions to be made!) You can use the suicide/retire feature IF YOU ARE VDAY ALIVE to end your Vday round and go back to the normal game. It is suggested that you work with a group of friends or with your family. Your family's IRC room is a good place to start :) At the end of the day, while this is a serious competition - it's still a game. Try not to let any grudges from Vday carry over into the next day. :P I wish you all good luck!

May I ask what is the motivation being this change compared to the other years? Being completely anonymous until the end was kind of fun and interesting to be honest. |

| This is the exact same setup as last year. We felt that without being some anonmyinity that people would get pounced on too quickly. However if it's 100% anonymous you lose some of the thrill. This satisfied both needs and worked our very well last year. | |

So, just to make sure.. during those 24hours (plus 45 mins), wacking will be completely disabled in the regular game? |

Any chance that this event will be postponed till after the war? So, that the new players will have a chance to play in this. I can play a few hours at the end of the event but, not the whole thing. Or can everyone participate because of the way the event is set up? |
