This is a SOLO thing. Just you. You can use consumables, Summons or PvE skills if your doing PvE. PvP rules apply for PvP, means no consumables or PvE skills. The only rule is you do it by yourself unless there is a certain bonus rule.
PvE rule Has to be above 2,500 damage PvP is 2000. Don't post lame numbers.
Master Of Damage has to say 30 seconds. If he says 35, try again AND don't post it! It can be 29 seconds, but you would want the extra second, trust me.
Post entire image! Those that "cut" off parts will automatically be disqualified. Why? Because they could be hiding Heroes or other players.
You may change your picture as much as you want! """DON'T DOUBLE POST!""" I will be looking at every post!
DON'T send me private messages on guru! Just post here.
Dead line is Saturday the 8th of December! Before 12 midnight GMT! I'll be checking right after that.

Take picture or...
PM Me in game! I highly SUGGEST it. ZODIAC WAR in friends. The winning people will have to prove their skills before I give them their winnings. (No cheating people) If a person takes a picture with him doing 4,086 damage, but showed me only 2,875. Hmmm.
I might be busy. Don't worry, when I get a break I can take 5 minutes out.
Don't worry. Luck is a factor and if your 200 or even 400 off that's ok. If your out of cons I'll add slack. Plus you will have plenty of due overs. But if you aren't near your score by trying 10x, I will consider cheating. PM me and that won't happen at ALL.
The reason I have you post here is because I can easily see the top scores. If a person cheats I can go to next in line here on the forum. Also it is for people participating can see their competition.

*The winner crown can bypass 1 rule that will be givin every week. The winner crown cannot be used by last weeks 4 winners. You can sell it or give it to a friend. The crown is customized for Zodiac Asin ONLY! Don't buy any other armor!

Don't know how to post picture, go HERE.

If this goes great, I will do this every week with the help of donations. Without donations this won't be possible!

Donaters
------------------------
Billiard (25 Ecto's)
Sin Of the Blood (Eternal Blade) My his account rest in piece!

IMPORTANT UPDATE
-------------------
Sin Of The Blood has been banned.
He bought gold online for next weeks tourney. He said and I quote.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know I was going to be banned."
"I did it many times before."
The Eternal Blade is lost forever along with his old account. He lost 4 campaigns he bought and had to buy another account. Is starting over really worth it?

Elder III · Nov 27, 2008, 02:17 AM // 02:17

1337 anyone??? *LEET*

Ben-A-BoO · Nov 27, 2008, 08:56 AM // 08:56

You might want to edit out your guilds vent info as well in the first screenshot ...
You should state if this is the PvE or PvP version of the isle, although I assume PvE xD

Good luck all, getting your Tapestry's

Burning Freebies · Nov 27, 2008, 04:39 PM // 16:39

Wow, good event idea. Id be hopeless at this, so im out. By the way, a few things you might want to clarify:

*Are consumable upgrades allowed?
*Are you allowed upgrades on armour and weapons?

Good luck with this!

Billiard · Nov 27, 2008, 07:42 PM // 19:42

Good idea for the event Zodiac! I'll donate 25 Ectos to Zodiac to use as prizes (you decide who the winner is and how you want to distribute them - send me a PM when you will be around and I will transfer them to you in advance).

Maccarelly · Nov 28, 2008, 11:26 AM // 11:26

I assume the deadline is meant to be December?

'Dead line is Saturday the 8th of November! Before 12 midnight GMT! I'll be checking right after that.'

If not Zodiac can I get access to that time machine.

Entry is to encourage the competition. ie not a winner!

UPDATE

Getting better

snaek · Nov 28, 2008, 08:03 PM // 20:03

this is my joke entry:
standard ms/db would prolly do more dmg than this
but my pve sin cant even run ms/db yet

this build should hit 5k+ easily
but i had no sup dagger mastery rune
only r5 in rep titles
and non-properly modded weapons

but im too lazy to fix them up
too lazy to even do a 2nd run to get exactly 30s lol

if i do get some motivation to pimp my pve sin
i have a build that can theoretically do ~8kdmg

snaek · Nov 28, 2008, 08:49 PM // 20:49

cool contest btw
i think specific challenges would be pretty cool
makes ppl come up wit new and interesting builds
rather than jus usin imba meta skills

heres one i thought of:
war/ranger/paragon/dervish only
must use a weapon not from ur primary profession
(discluded sins cuz i think wotm + crit strikes give an unfair advantage)

Warrior would win that one no doubt. [[warrior's endurance]+[[asuran scan]+[[power attack]+ a scythe? Easy win.

Ummm why not just multiply the average damage/second by 5 for five consecutive 5 second-damage values displayed then add them up? Seems much better than trying to hit the 29-30 second mark...

It's pretty easy to hit the 30 second mark. When he says You've done XXX averaging in the last 5 seconds 6 times then just stop or /bow. Type it in screen before fighting, and enter+enter really fast once he says it the 6th time.

The values are still the same though. Can we do it either way?

(247 + 220 + 164 + 204 + 262 + 170)*5 = 6335

UPDATE!

Awesome Donation from guildy! Eternal Blade caster modded!
Keep in mind, guildy has the sword and will give it to you. I will not have the sword and you will have to contact the guildy once you win and I give you the name. (Hooray for trusting

)

Remember you will have to prove your skills before I give reward. If you did 10,000 damage it won't mean garrentee grand prize. What it will mean that your in ahead.

Why? You can take Heroes with you, do 7000 damage, leave, kick heroes, reenter with you alone and text will still say what the master of damage.

If you contact be before deadline that would be great! Prove your skills and save time!

I've changed the damage req. from 1500 to 2500. No lame numbers for you powerhouses.

here to troll · Nov 30, 2008, 11:20 PM // 23:20

hey im thinking it would be alot better if you did this in pvp arena of the ilse of the nameless so as to not discriminate between pvp and pve chars.

Fuzzy Taco · Nov 30, 2008, 11:45 PM // 23:45

probably a little late to change the rules so much, but i agree that it should be in PvP Isle. That way, the contest is not biased towards people with physical characters with high title ranks. Unfortunately, people have already spent money or cons to buff up their totals, so i don't think it would be fair to ask you to change the rules now. Perhaps a separate division?

Get those titles up, you got a whole week. Pwn with your pve character like your pvp. A friend of my has been working all week to buff his title for the contest. It's not like those titles are useless *Cough*Iway Rainbow Phoenix prevents clicking*Cough* Uh, sorry, nasty cold.

A separate division would be nice, pvp only. I'll do that, if I don't get a donation then I'll split the original reward. The guy with the eternal blade hasn't been on lately, I'll see if he can donate again.

Edit: 990 damage in 1 second all by yourself? HOLY !@#$

I'm entering my own contest! PvP style! Eat it! A Necromancer can kick butt

I'm going to pwn PvE to. With a Necro!! Summoning Sickness

Come on people, don't let me win!!

Get those Summons, there will be future rules about them. However if it's not on party bar it's not an ally. Can you spot the Oni?!

Edit 2: Perfected Shadow, I've taken your last 5 numbers instead of your first 5.

IronSheik · Dec 01, 2008, 09:29 AM // 09:29

PvE Version, Pvp Soon to come, IGN Ubber Man, I accidentally attacked once after 30, if you need it redone tell me

PvP Version, Will prove Non mesmer or assassin skills when contest is over :3

Burning Freebies · Dec 01, 2008, 05:53 PM // 17:53

Err, Ironshiek, why is there a hero in the party? No heroes allowed!
