Welcome to Malton's First Player Killer Olympic Games!
The Player Killer community of Malton has raised the act of homocide to an art form such as humanity has never seen in its history. Let us no longer be deprived of sport by virtue of quarantine and the presence of the fetid undead. This September, the Player Killer community will gather in diabolical competition to learn who among our number are the best of the best at executing execution.
Across the city, over a multitude of organized events, Malton's Player Killers will have the opportunity to prove their mettle in the homicidal arts, and many, many innocent residents of the city will perish for our sport. Join your fellow psychopathic athletes in a quest for citywide recognition as one of the greatest at what you do - assassinating the cringing cattle that cowers in fear of the rotten hordes. Demonstrate yet again that in the face of our unpleasant infestation, that something beautiful can be created through destruction.
- The PKOC is full. Matt Aires is the last of Nine. Thanks to all who agreed to participate.
- The Opening Ceremonies are scheduled. If you haven't figured out how to find out where, PM me/post on my page, and we'll figure out how to get you in the loop.
- If you can't make the location or time - please just go kill someone in whatever way (fuel/flare if possible) today, and say something that links it to the games. Perhaps:
- "All hail the opening ceremonies of the Player Killer Olympics! Interficio, Mortis, Furiae!!"
Which means, "Murder, Death, Madness," and is our slogan instead of "Citius, Altius, Fortius" (Higher, Faster, Stronger) the real Olympic motto.
- The games are officially open as of 00:00 GMT 9/10/08. There will be a submission thread in the public area on the PKer Hub.
- The schedule begins with the following events:
- 24-Hour Sprint
- Marathon
- Baseball
- Groups or individuals interested in scheduling baseball games should contact me or post on the baseball thread I will make. I will create another thread for "Collaborating to create teams" for folks in smaller groups or individuals. I know the LNTVC would like to play baseball, and we're short of the number required. So far we're teaming up with Kill Deus257 for 'something' - but if anyone wants to coordinate with us specifically, let me know.
I think that's it for now. Go shout about the PKO please! Also, spray the malls if you have a can.
The Malton Player Killer Olympic Torch Relay
DATE/LOCATION FOR OPENING CEREMONIES HAS BEEN SET - Working to communicate it to everyone, but not "everyone." Contact me.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaand the Torch is LIT! Congratulations to Stand Alone Complex of Red Rum who gave Uncle Zeddie the ultimate going away present, and chose the perfect target, a favorite among the Player Killer community for a year now. Cheers to you Uncle Zeddie, and thanks for a terrific year of quality entertainment. We'll most definitely miss you. Oh, and enjoy your retirement at the burn ward!
Lit from the sacred fire in Stanbury Village at the source of the outbreak, the Torch of the 2008 Player Killer Olympiad is on the move! Look for a PK'er carrying the official PKO Torch starting NOW. Be sure to cheer our athletes on as the torch makes its way through YOUR suburb!!
How to participate in the torch relay:
No matter where you are in Malton, if you are a PK'er (or want to be), simply successfully attack a survivor with the fuel and flare option, say something about the olympics, and submit the screenshot or iWitness at our forum. We will make a page that tracks the torch's progress across the city. Let's light up the town people in the run-up to the opening ceremonies!
Survivors are just burning to get in on the action!
Opening Ceremonies
Soon, at a location to be announced later, Player Killers from all corners of Malton will congregate to kick off these august proceedings. A spectacular extravaganza is planned, sure to entertain one and all. Stay tuned to this space for more information and details.
  
How do I Join the Competition?
- Recite the PKO Oath out loud.
- Each week, a certain number of events will be announced, with accompanying parameters for each event.
- Choose the event(s) in which you wish to compete
- Equip and prepare yourself for the competition.
- Perform the tasks required for the event – e.g. Kill people.
- Take the required iWitness reports shots of you performing the event
- Submit the iWitness reports to the PKOC for evaluation
- Await your rank based on all submissions
- Accept medal if appropriate.
Individual events will take place within specific windows of time. During the time window, you will need to decide which events you care to participate in, and equip yourself appropriately. The windows will be devised in hopes that the largest possible number of people will have the ability to perform to their highest potential, given adequate time to prepare and execute a submission for medals.
Team events will take place at scheduled times, determined to work best for the majority of players. A team that does not show up to a scheduled team event with the required number of players, will forfeit that game.
Teams can be any combination of players from any group or groups, and large groups can field multiple teams.
Who is running the Games?
The idea came from Malton's largest Player Killer group, Red Rum, but input shall be solicited for a specified duration prior to the games from the entire player killer community, and nominees from groups will be selected to serve as member of the Player Killer Olympic Committee (PKOC), who will serve as arbiters of all rules, and judges of all events. Watch this space for more details.
Is this another DEM Pancake?
No. It's a fun idea, it's been carefully planned, and you should hush up and join the fun. The rules have been designed to allow the greatest flexibility possible, and should result in a staggering body count across Malton for the duration of the Games.
