I couldn't get the lighting glitch to go fully away :c The TreeHouse Apartment is hosting Ice Boat Racing! utopia /v +treehouse, teleport pads to your left or /v 5619.boatrace There will be 5 rounds with betting. Bet on which racer/team you think will win first place, up to 1k, and have your bet doubled if you're right! Race winners get 50% of bets made on them if they're first, 30% if they're second, 10% if they're third. The rest of the rupees will go towards betters and, if there's anything left, to future races If racers work in teams (2 people per boat), their reward is split 80-20 rower-backseat (since the person in the back is just there for moral support). Each race will have up to 4 racers/teams. *note: due to how racer rewards are given out, it's possible for 3rd place to get more rupees than 1st place Betters will type /pay SteamingFire WhoYou'reBettingOn before each round. Rewards are given out after each round. If you pay me without specifying who you're betting on, your bet will be returned. This event has no entry fee. It's entirely free and full of prizes for everyone. Betting is optional. Come have fun! Current event: TBA Please sign up below if you want to race! First 20 teams will be the racers. (5 rounds, 4 teams per round). If less than 20 teams are signed up after the event starts, I will let people race again. Sign up by replying to this thread with your intent to race and the name of your team member, if you'll be racing in a team. Only one person needs to post their team. Make it clear who will be the rower and who will be backseat.
The first event went pretty well! Not enough bets were placed, so I gave all first, second, and third placers a prize. Rounds 9 and 10 were not held because most people left by that time. Another Ice Boat Racing will likely be held next week! Stay tuned!
Please sign up if you want to race at 8PM EST on Saturday, 9/12/2020! Reply to this thread stating your intent to race. If you want to race in a team, have ONE person comment with the name of their team member. Tell me who will be rower and who will be backseat.
Today's race has finished. It was a partial success. Less than 10 people showed up, so it wasn't too chaotic, and we had people racing multiple times. We also did a blindfold round, where rowers closed their eyes and backseat guided them Join us next time!
