BEGINS :: 9 PM Pacific / MIDNIGHT Eastern / 5 AM London / 6 AM Paris
ENDS :: EXACTLY 24 HOURS LATER
Fast furious and not for the faint of heart ... !
(This is gonna be a fun one folks!)
Newbies who might not be familiar with twitch Lux so lemme explain ... games are played with ridiculously short timers and fast income increases ... killing players isn't as important as racing around the board and popping all income ... you're gonna need superb reflexes and some luck ... 'cause sometimes you've gotta be reckless and hope your opponents will trip over themselves ...
This tournament will be structured like my other Luxtober events ... slightly modified traditional Luxtoberfest scoring with games weighted by human count so full houses aren't required ... thirty minute maximum enforced with patented Marathon Nuking ™ technology ... and my usual Chimera bots have been dumbed down slightly so they don't slaughter you slow feeble humans ... seriously though ... be careful in three and four bot games 'cause my stooges can still slap you around and they'll never apologize ...
