Get ready for a rollicking good time, as Vanguard: Saga of Heroes' Customer Service team is gearing up for a Best of the Best-style tourney open to all classes from all of the game's servers.

The Bard class gets to kick off the tournament. Shortly before the event starts, a GM will make a world broadcast asking for the names of those who wish to join in. The overall winner will get 1 platinum, a special "Tournament Champion" title, and a /broadcast to the server announcing his or her victory. Here's the schedule:

  • Halgar - Noon Pacific Time on Thursday 24th January 2008.
  • Xeth - 5pm Pacific Time on Thursday 24th January 2008.
  • Seradon - Noon Pacific Time on Saturday 26th January 2008.
  • Sartok - 5pm Pacific Time on Saturday 26th January 2008.

Of course, there are rules. In order to take part in the tourney, you must be at level 50 and have a clean record. That means you must not have broken any of the game's rules and policies. Also, no mounts are allowed during the fight. You're also given a specific duel area. Ring outs mean disqualification.

SOE provides handy guide to cross-game communication in EQ

Sony Online Entertainment is responsible for quite a number of MMOs, and they've got a useful system in place to allow communication with people across their game worlds. However, many people either don't know about this system, or simply don't know how to wrangle it into doing what they want. To help with this, SOE has written a guide illustrating how EverQuest players can chat to their friends in other games.

The games that EQ players can send both private messages and in-game mail to are EverQuest II, Planetside, Vanguard, The Matrix Online, and Star Wars: Galaxies. It's also possible to communicate with players on different EQ servers, but many of the servers have abbreviations that must be used in the commands — these can be found in the guide. Now don't go acting all surprised when you're hiding from a guild raid on another server and your guild master sends you a tell!
