Monthly Sprints work like this:
- Twice every week day at alternating times (listed below), a FREE four-round Legends of Norrath Sprint tournament will be held in the Tournaments Lobby.
- Entrants in the tournament will receive Sprint points based on participation and number of wins.
- Cumulative rankings will be posted after each event on the Sprint Leaderboard.
- On the last weekday of the month, the player with the most Sprint points on the Sprint Leaderboard will win:
- A “Choose Your Loot Card” good for a Legends of Norrath loot card from the current set.
- A special Gold Sprint Winner Medal, displayed next to the winner's name in the LoN game lobbies.
- Players with 100 or more Sprint points for the month will receive:
- A Silver Sprint Winner Medal.
- Players with 40 to 99 Sprint points for the month will receive:
- A Bronze Sprint Winner Medal.
- Players earn Sprint promo cards at the following rate:
- 30 Sprint Points = 1 Promo Card
- 40 Sprint Points = 2 Promo Cards
- 50 Sprint Points = 3 Promo Cards
- 60 Sprint Points = 4 Promo Cards
- 70 Sprint Points = 4 Promo Cards 1 Foil Promo Cards
- 80 Sprint Points = 4 Promo Cards 2 Foil Promo Cards
- 90 Sprint Points = 4 Promo Cards 3 Foil Promo Cards
- 100 Sprint Points = 4 Promo Cards 4 Foil Promo Cards
- On the first weekday of the next month, all Sprint points and Sprint rankings will be reset, but Medal winners will keep their Medals. If they win subsequent Medals of the same color, a number will appear inside that Medal. For example, a three-time gold winner will have a gold Medal with the number “3″ inside.
The Sprint point schedule for daily Sprint events looks like this:
-
- Receive one (1) point for each round finished.
- Receive two (2) additional points for each round won.
The least amount of Sprint points a player can receive for a completed tournament is four, and the maximum is 12.
The Monthly Sprint schedule is as follows: (provided no other events are in progress)
Mondays – 11:00a.m. and 5:00 p.m. (PT – U.S.A.)
Tuesdays – 11:00a.m. and 6:30 p.m. (PT – U.S.A.)
Wednesdays – 11:00 a.m. and 5:00p.m. (PT – U.S.A.)
Thursdays – 11:00a.m. and 6:30 p.m. (PT – U.S.A.)
Fridays – 11:00a.m. and 5:00 p.m. (PT – U.S.A.)
(Except that the February Sprint will not occur on Monday, February 15th, 2010)
Please see the Legends of Norrath Events Calendar for details on this month's Sprints.
Players can still enter as many Sprint tournaments as they would like, however, only the best 4 Sprint point showings each week will be tallied for a player. All other Sprint tournaments will not count for points, but Sprint games played will help decide tie-breakers. If a month ends in the middle of the week, players will receive credit for the top four events for each partial week.
The format for daily events will be four rounds of Swiss play, although we'll occasionally post special formats a couple of days in advance to keep players on their toes, competitively speaking! All Sprint ratings will now be updated each night and not at the conclusion of the event.
The results of Sprint tournaments will have no impact on other tournament ratings and rankings.
The February 2010 Monthly Sprint promo card is Blackshield Brute (9P7)!
International players may participate for Sprint points, Sprint rankings and Medals and they are eligible to win non-tradable Legends of Norrath Sprint promo cards.
