We've got several tournaments going on right now on InstantAction (rather, sign ups are happening now) so if one of these interests you, go ahead and click the link.

Legions DeathMatch Tourney

Standard Deathmatch with a 10 minute time limit and 50 kill score limit.  Prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places.  Broken up into Eu, NA, and Australia.  Sign up deadline: October 15th.

Galcon Noob Tourney

This is still up in the air but if there are at least 7 people that are interested before October 10th, it could be a reality.  The noob part of tourney just means that it's a very relaxed tournament for fun.  If you are interested, click the link above and sign up.

Rokkitball Multiple Goal Challenge

In this competition it will be required to do multiple shots in 1 video.  You'll be given a task, earn point on your video and winners will be determined.  Prizes are still TBD.  Check it out!

That's all I've got for now.  DrWiley out.

Rokkitball Longshot

The following is an insanely long 5 point shot in Rokkitball from h2oDragon.  How did he do that?  Seriously...how?  Feel free to leave links in the comments section to some of your longest shots.

Rokkitball Touney - 3v3

ZanteWarrior is hosting another Rokkitball League, this time it will be 3vs3.  All Rokkitball players new and old are welcome to join.  Even if you currently do not have a team you can sign-up on as a Free Agent and then get drafted to a team once it starts. If you have a team of 2 players you are still welcome and are also able to be drafted from the Free Agents list or will get a team member added to your team. 

This League is for veterans looking to have some fun and newbloods willing to show what they're made of; but everyone is welcome who enjoys playing Rokkitball.

Take a look at the rules and sign-up via this forum link: http://forum.instantaction.com/smf/index.php/topic,15113.0.html

DzD newly named SiN are the current champions from the last Rokkitball team league if you think you can take them down.... BRING IT, THEY ARE WAITING!

Rokkitball Scavenger Hunt Winners

The Hunt has come to a close, much faster than I was expecting, and we have our winners.  The first to find all the hints was Stoja followed by Desperado1.  After the initial 2 winners we had 2 people (D4douch3 and Hiropinoy) that came in close enough that we're going ahead and calling it a tie.  Each person that found all the locations will be rewarded with 500 Action Tokens.  Congrats to the winners. 

That was a lot of fun, so if anyone has ideas like this in the future you can always contact DrWiley or Crash7800 and we'll help you get it set up.

Rokkitball Scavenger Hunt

Guitee has recently kicked up a Scavenger Hunt within Rokkitball.  The rules are simple, find the locations he's taken pictures of and send him a private message of where that particular spot can be found.  In all he's looking for 17 different locations and the first 3 people who find these locations will receive 500 ActionTokens to spend on whatever their heart desires.  So what are you waiting for?  Launch a game of Rokkitball and start Hunting.  For hints on the locations click here.

A very special thanks to ZanteWarrior for putting this one on and let this be a reminder, if you see a tournament listed on the forums, most likely Tokens will be attached as prizes.  So compete and win big.

Rokkitball Competition

Helendrius hosted a Rokkitball Competition recently with the goal being to hit shots from different distances getting drastically harder as you moved up the levels.  The furthest goal being past the 270 mark. 

The biggest challengers were D4D0uCh3, Stoja16, and Desperado1.  In the end Stoja16 came out on top with a scoring distance of 272 feet.  Stoja has been rewarded with 500 ActionTokens for his effort and has been dubbed the "Best Rokkitball Shooter".  Think you can do better?  Take a look at the rules and see if you can knock Stoja out. 

Stoja's shot in action.

Helendrius has mentioned that there will be more challenges in the future so be sure to check out the Rokkitball section in the forums so you know when they go down.
