It's not a big secret around here that we've been working on an APB to address the global gaming community at large. We've finally put the finishing touches on a document today, thanks primarily to the help of Papaj (Violent Impact Officer), that will take IGC to new heights! Starting today, IGC is officially launching its campaign to draw in RTS, FPS, and other clan-based gamers! While we don't forsee a huge influx of players right away, we're certain to draw in a nice helping of new and fresh faces, voices, and personalities to our great community over the next few months.

Like other end game shells, we've been spending most of our time toying around with Garuda since the last patch. The fight has a number of interesting mechanics which weren't exactly difficult to overcome. A win's a win, as they say, and after just a few days this fight was chiseled down to a simple manaburn. We were up to this task and made quicker work of Garuda in light of this new finding.

Greetings and welcome to Impact Gaming, especially if this is your first visit! Lately I've been thinking about ways to bring new members into the fold without requiring all the secrecy and access level stuff that our guilds use. Today I've finally decided that IGC will open its doors to all and welcome in gamers of all types with the introduction of Gamer Groups. Gamer Groups comprise themselves of 3 or more players who are interested in a particular game and want to represent IGC while playing it! Gamer Groups can be made for any game, in any genre, including MMORPGs.

5v5 In the Pipe

This week Maylei and the League of Legends crew will host a 5v5 IGC tournament.  All members interested in signing up should read this thread.

Here are the tournament rules and guidelines:

Information

Map: Summoner's Rift

Game Type: Draft

Matches: 5 if possible.  Expect at least 5 hours of playing LoL.  Breaks will be taken in between matches.

Requirements

Must have at least Summoner Level 20,

Must be eligible for Draft Mode (16 available champs, free ones count too),

Must be a member of IGC in any given chapter or a general member.

Selection

Signups are on a first come first serve basis.

You can still sign up if over 10 people sign up as a backup player.

Team Selection: Everyone will be assigned a number (1-10) and I'll run a program to sort the teams randomly. Every game the teams will be randomly sorted again, that way we play with and against a wide variety of team members. Odds will be on one team, while evens on the other.

Winning & Prizes

Winning: The player(s) with the most total wins at the end of the tournament will be the winner(s).

Prizes: I'm considering offering prizes and I want to know what people think. Can we do this without official prizes? Prizes will likely be a small ($5-10) of Riot Points or other cash shop game points (such as Guild Wars 2 Gems) depending on which the player wants.

Bonuses: If people are willing to stick around we can play ARAM (All Random All Mid) and Dominion matches too.

Additional

Spectating: 2 spectator slots are available. Spectator slots will be given to backup players as a priority. If you wish to spectate and don't meet the above requirements (you are interested in LoL for example as a new player) than you can still sign up as a spectator here to watch the games.

If interested, hop in the thread and post up to reserve your spot!  Good luck and have fun guys!
