IF the whole district decides to work against what a normal user would expect (without announcing it just to attract more players)- then yeah, I would call that sabotaging the event. Especially since it comes from the user who thought that players acting like morons were doing just that at his events (or events he participated in) and his urge to report them resulted in them being banned (eg. he of all people should know better!)
So I really don't see the reason why players attending this event shouldn't be screaming their lungs out every few secs that they are having their own way of fun and that it might be better that players that do not want it leave. There will be other districts so this shouldn't be a problem - but I feel very strongly about them keeping shut and thus ruining the expected fun for the unlucky person that might wander in expecting the participants to actually play the game as it was intended!
But then again - this is all hypothetically - since I have no idea if the party plan included the announcement of what will be happening. It was just something that I feel must be considered!

Play the game as it was intended? My my, so failing intentionally is sabotage? Well, I think someone needs a timeout... Oh, and I am fully aware you are a troll at all community events because you lack a sense of humor and find that your own games and crude sense of humor are somehow wanted and appreciated by the guests of community based events. I have news for you... they aren't. So why don't you take your negative attitude elsewhere, out of my FUN thread and go try to ruin someone else's day, like you so much enjoy doing. Personally, I don't have the time nor the patience to deal with the likes of you. But, you might want to rethink who you are attacking. I do nothing but nice things for the Guru and GWO community, giving away 100s of thousands of my own gold and items as prizes. What do you do good sir? Complain? Bitch constantly? Who has the better character here? I think that answer is fairly clear. Go humbug somewhere else.
Now, back on topic. The event is being changed. ID6 atm, I will update if the need arises. So...
International District 6 = Failure district.
The great thing is, we will quickly find out whether or not the glitch is present. Once we lose the first few contests, there will be enough grasps to ensure a loss thereafter. So basically, we lose the first 3-4 on purpose, and then the grasps can take over (if the glitch is still present)
As a note: I will be warning players who are not part of the event to leave if they do not want to fail, as it would be a pity that players who actually wanted to win were stuck in our district. So, I could use some help in that respect. Once in a while, once the finale event starts, tell people that we are going to fail on purpose, so if they don't wish to fail, they have a chance to zone to a different district.
