I'm just testing the waters at the moment, as none of you probably know, the Dragon Arena minigame is D.E.A.D, I'd very much like to liven it up and what better way to do that than with a prize?

I'm thinking a prize pool of 20,000 (80 stacks) of zkeys split 1-6 ways (however many original players of a team manage to make it to 25 consecutive victories).

Now even if there is a good turnout (I'm doubting anybody will even read this), 25 consecs might not be achieved, I've done it back in the day but not everyone's that lucky/has that much time. In that case it'll just come down to whoever gets the highest.


If this makes DA as active as it was before the launch of GW2, it will be zkeys well spent. Post in this thread with interest so I can gauge if this has any chance of happening, we have 18~ days until it opens.


Half of the zkeys on one of my 2 storage characters:


Update: The contest is a go. DA will open on the 31st (Or perhaps a day later, I remember that happening with one of the events), there's no official entry to the contest, just play and be sure to take screenshots of your consecutive victories once you feel you're close enough.

Update 2: Given statistics over the past few days, 100 consecs is impossible. Reduced to 25, I feel this will be possible and yet still extremely difficult in the current state of DA.

TELL YOUR FRIENDS! For there to be any hope of achieving a high win streak, there will need to be a decent amount of players, so tell everyone you can, hell, spam it in outposts! Let's make this a fun week.

Be careful whoever wins doesn't get banned for what might look like buying z keys from a seller. Lol

Whew, didn't think of that, guess I'll have to take them out to an explorable area and drop the keys to be safe.

It functions like RA, so you can enter alone and try your luck.

Nice, it's been a looong time since I played this one! So, the participating team needs to obtain 100 consecutive wins and provide a screenshot in order to be eligible for the prizes? And, what are them exactly?

20.000 is what appears to be the prize pool, not a single reward one could get via the trade...

DA only gives 5 pts per turn, impossible to farm anything past r6 here.

I just want it to be alive.

It seems in the current state, 100 consecs is impossible. I've been told I should reduce it to around 20-30.

What should I do folks?

I'd agree with lowering the overall awards-applicable requirements to 10/15/20 wins (representing 3 different prizes) absolutely! Been there a couple of evenings (the guy wearing the Dragonguard costume, fitting the area's surroundings so much =), played a lot of matches, felt all the heat'n'joy, but, it didn't proceed past 5 consecutive wins, not a single time even (anything past 20 victories seems very unlikely with teams only this few playing)...
