Tired of constantly being on the defensive, the clan summit has put their foot down and decided that this time, Plagueis will strike first. The Dread Lord has ordered the clan to crack down on Collective influences in Aliso and has authorized attacks on the Collective and other enemies of the clan around the Unknown Regions.

Members of Plagueis are invited to participate in a three week-long team-vs.-team competition with a variety of different events and challenges. Teams will be drawn randomly from a hat by team leaders Ronovi Tavisaen and TuQ’uan Varick. Some events will be individually based, while others will require collaboration with either a teammate or a member of the opposing team.

Each individual will earn five points per event they participate in. Participation is defined as a valid submission for an event. Simply signing up for an event or uploading an unqualified submission will not count. You have to put in the effort in order to receive the reward.

Additionally, the top three individuals in each event will earn placement modifier points. First place will earn 4 points, second place will earn 3 points, and third place will earn 2 points, and all other entries will earn 1 point. Events themselves will have modifiers based off their perceived difficulty/level of effort required. For example: the modifier for fiction and co-op comps will be 3, the modifier for gaming/graphics/poetry will be 2, and no modifier will be added to puzzle/trivia/flash events.

The top three placements overall for the event will win 2nd level Crescents. Ties will be broken by comparing the number of placements between members in a tie - so if one member has three firsts and a third, and another has equal points, but less first placements, the tie would break in the first person's favor.

Because the clan will be split into two teams run by the clan summit to compete against one another, more subjective competitions will be judged blindly, with the help and occasional intervention of a Dark Councillor judge.
