Guild Wars challenge: are we intersted?

[Basil Dreadflint]

Ok Dueces Wild guild members, there is a challenge being made. This is preliminary, and there are no dates set yet, but I need to know if we would even be intersted in taking part in something like this? I have pasted the posting in it's exact words:

**************
Do ye really think your guild is the best in caribbean? Well tis be the time to be testin that thoery of yers! Sign up here for the battle to end all battles of guilds! And have yer guild declared best guild in the caribbean! Now tis game wont be easy and will test yer guilds skills from commnuication, knowledge, to brute force! Tis events will take place here in the POTCO Guild and Clans Forums and in game! So do ye think yer guild has what it takes?

Tis game will be set in several stages an event held each week and every week one guild will be banished from the realm and tis shall continue until the last guild be standin!

Some events that will be held:
- SvS
- PvP (single weapon only like just cutlass)
- Races (land and sea or both)
- Scavenger hunts
- Tortuga Hold 'em
- Screen Shot Contests
- much much more...

Losing:
The first few stages of the event will be alliance battles meaning several guilds must form 2 alliances and all the guilds on an alliance must work together. The losing alliance must then vote off a guild. The guild with the most votes will be voted off the game and the alliance will be one guild short.
The last stages will be every guild for its self in other words you are only fighting for your guild and if your guild loses an event then your guild is off the battle.

Voting:
When an alliance loses a battle the losing alliance must vote. Each guild will have one vote and the guild that gets voted against the most is voted off. Now each guild gets 1 vote and to determin that vote the Guild Master can either make the decision him/her self or can ask the guild to vote. If there is a tie we will do a tie breaker challenge within 3 days.

Non-Elimination Stages:
There will be 2 Non-Elimination stange which means no guild goes packing that night however you will not know when these stages are. You will find out After the stage has ended.

Rules:
No cheating what so ever.
No Glitches any PERSON to be found glitching in a stage will get their entire guild kicked out of the game. No exceptions!
Each stage will have its own set of rules and you must follow those as well as these!
No rudeness, ANY person found being rude to another guild during the event will get their guild kicked this will not be tolerated! Rude means No we are better than you ro <guild name> Sucks! this is just a game and no permanent or even temporary grudges should happen.

DISCLAIMER: These events are for fun the actual winning guild will get nothing more than a few bragging rights thats all we can never determine the best guild in the caribbean since there are so many this is just a game! NO HARM INTENDED!

REVISED RULES!!!
Some events that will be held:
SvS
PvP (single weapon only like just cutlass)
Races (land and sea or both)
Scavenger hunts
Tortuga Hold 'em
Screen Shot Contests
much much more...
Game Play
The game will be set up and executed similar to the way the hit TV show Survivor. There will be 2 blocks of the game.
Block 1 is where all the participating guilds will form 2 alliances and you will have to compete with the other alliance.
Block 2 is where its every guild for itself you will fight as a guild individually
Block 1
Game Play - All the guilds who have signed up will be split into 2 alliances in which you must fight with your alliance. If your alliance loses then you must vote out a guild more on voting later. If your alliance wins then you are safe until the next stage.
Voting - During Block 1 voting will be important. Each guild will have one vote and the guild that gets voted against the most is voted off. Now each guild gets 1 vote and to determine that vote the Guild Master can either make the decision him/her self or can ask the guild to vote. If there is a tie we will do a tie breaker challenge within 3 days.
Stages - stages are different events in the game. There will be 1 stage every week. Stages will be activities like SvS, PvP (certain weapons), Races, and more.
Non-Eliminating Stages - these may be useful. 3 Stages out of the entire game will be non-eliminating which means if you lose a non-eliminating stage you wont have to vote/be eliminated. You will not know which stages these will be it will be announced after the scores are in!
Block 2
Game Play - In this block it will be every guild for itself no more alliances. We will reach this point in the game when there are 4 guilds left. If your guild loses a stage then your guild is disqualified from the game.
Voting - There is no voting during this block.
Stages - Same as with Block 1 they will be held once a week and some events will be the same but new ones will be added. If your guild loses a stage they will be kicked from the game
Non-Eliminating Stages - these may be useful. 3 Stages out of the entire game will be non-eliminating which means if you lose a non-eliminating stage you wont be eliminated. You will not know which stages these will be it will be announced after the scores are in!
Moderating
I noticed a lot of you are worried about glitching and cheating hopefully this paragraph will put that to rest.
I will be moderating ALL events in some sort of manner so it wont just be play the event and tell me the results.
Glitches are a HUGE thing in the game DONT DO THEM once again if caught your entire guild will be disqualified! Now i noticed a lot of you are worried remember this:
It is just a game the MOST you will win from this is bragging rights and maybe a small amount of casino cash that's all i can give you.
I can NOT control the environment in the game!!!! In other words i cant fix glitches in game and i cant do anything about it.
Now i do hope that most POF'ers are MATURE enough not to do glitches during and event like this but it will happen and if it does please take a picture of the person doing that glitch and PM it to me and i will look it over and ask witnesses. (Give me the full blown screen shot of the entire scree not just a snippet of the game)
Rules
No cheating what so ever.
No Glitches any PERSON to be found glitching in a stage will get their entire guild kicked out of the game. No exceptions!
Each stage will have its own set of rules and you must follow those as well as these!
No rudeness, ANY person found being rude to another guild during the event will get their guild kicked this will not be tolerated! Rude means such phrases as "we are better than you", "<guild name> Sucks!" this is just a game and no permanent or even temporary grudges should happen.
DISCLAIMER: These events are for fun the actual winning guild will get nothing more than a few bragging rights that's all we can never determine the best guild in the Caribbean since there are so many this is just a game! NO HARM INTENDED

NOW: I would like to get some feedback from the guild about if we are interested, and would we be willing to participate.

PLEASE: ONLY DUECES WILD MEMBERS RESPOND HERE!
If you are a member of a different guild, contact your guild master and have her/him collect data from your own guild.

I'll leave this posting run for about a week, maybe a little longer. Then, I'll contact the contest organizer(s) to let them know what we decide.
