Name: Sand Wars!
Date(s): Saturday, September 21
Location: DoPA Arena (Westridge)
Time: 10:00am PST/1:00pm EST
Description:
Basically, there will be two teams. Each player will receive 32 sand, a stone shovel and 16 wood planks. Both teams have their own “sides”, and each side will include 3 platforms. Each platform must include a redstone lamp with a lever on it, located 32 blocks above the platform.
How it’s played: Each team starts on their own side, and once the event moderator says “Begin,” the goal of each team is to stack sand up on each of their opponent’s platforms, high enough so that they can reach the lever (located 32 blocks above) and turn on the redstone lamp. The first team to have all their opponent’s platform lamps lit up wins.
Here’s where the fun part comes in! Players are all given stone shovels so that they can take down their opponents’ towers before they are able to reach the redstone lamps. The wood planks are given so that players are able to surround each of their own platforms for defense. These can also be taken down by opponents.
Rules for the Event:
-No crossteaming
-Killing or hitting a player will lead to your disqualification.
-The wood planks cannot be used for the tower. Any sand tower built with wood planks disqualifies the tower. Sand, however, can be used for the tower and for defense.
-Players are allowed to stand on top of their platform as defense, and their opponents aren’t allowed to hit them off of the platform. They can, however, push them off.
Prizes: Each player from the winning team gets 500kr.
