Events Gamemode Spotlight: UHC Worlds - Week 3 [US/EU]

[arsenal]

Event Update​

First of all, apologies for week two on EU having to be cancelled. Unfortunately the Mojang session servers were down, and that is obviously out of our control so there was not much we could do. We will continue EU next week with week three.

Additionally, during the US event for the first time we played gamemodes other than Vanilla UHC. We played Warped UHC and it seemed to have some gameplay issues that made it less fun than Vanilla. All of this information is valuable and will be past on to the devs, so thanks to all of you for the input! With that in mind, we will be playing all of our future sessions on Vanilla UHC to ensure a fun playing experience.

Because of all of that there is not much to update you on in terms of leaderboards, but the week 4 thread will have the updated leaderboards for sure so you are up to date going into the final round!

Event Info​

For this event, we will be switching it up a slight bit. Throughout the month of September, we will be holding 4 sessions, each containing 1-2 rounds. Vanilla UHC will always be played, so please vote for it in the lobby! We will have staff members refereeing the games and keeping track of points. You can earn points by getting kills and winning the game in each round, as well as bonus points given out to everyone who shows up at each session.

After each session we will add up the points that everyone earned in each session, and add them to the leaderboard. After the fourth sessions is complete those who have placed in the top 3 on the leaderboard will earn prizes. Sound fun? To join, simply poke any staff members in the Gamemode Spotlight channel under the Events header on our TeamSpeak (ts.mcgamer.net).

Points​

Points can be earned in the following ways. All points earned in each session will be added to the leaderboard. Check the events section of the forums after each week to see a thread with the updated leaderboard.

• 20 points per kill
• 50 points per win
• 10 points per session for participation
