Wager matches are a great way to earn (or lose) EXP fast. They are a conceptual version of a new Theater of War. If all goes well, we'll likely see the ToW reopen!

Rules and Regulations

Registration:
  • Only members with approved characters are allowed to participate in the wager matches.
  • Like in tournaments, characters must be registered for this concept. You can register your character in the Registration Thread. Immediately after you've registered your character you can issue or accept challenges in the forum.
  • To withdraw from the league, players must post the word "Withdraw" in the Registration thread. This is so other players will not challenge you when you do not wish to be challenged.
Battle Rules:
  • All of the basic rules for combat in Althanas are active in wager matches. These include the rules related to power gaming and bunnying.
  • Battles are started by way of challenges. Challenges can be bilateral (arranged), unilateral or open. Which ever method you choose, don’t forget to display the name of those participating somewhere the title of the thread or the body of the post. You can also use the Challenges thread to find an opponent.
  • All challenges must include a wager. A wager is an amount of his or her character's EXP, up to 5000 EXP that the challenger wants to place on the battle. Wagers are accepted by posting in the thread. You can negotiate a wager in the Challenges thread, but it does not become "official" until the challengee (the person being challenged) posts in the thread.
  • If a participant does not post within 7 days, the last person to post is deemed the winner by default.
  • When a battle is finished, please submit it using the judgment submission system.
  • Battles are graded by a judge using the Althanas rubric of your choice. EXP will be awarded for the battle, and the wager will be added to the final total. GP and other spoils will be distributed per normal.
  • Like in the Citadel, the characters are healed between battles.


That's it, please post any questions here.
