Title: Naked Mike Day
Post by: Punisher on January 26, 2011, 02:44:23 pm
I think it's time to bring back Naked Mike, now with the upkeep it will be more popular than ever. So only melee weapons, no armor/ranged/horses. Every Wednesday evening, if I remember correctly.

this originally was a NA thing, not? Cause Melee Monday + Nekkid Wednesday together would be a bit over the...

wtf am i talking about? melee days forward, what about daggers-only-Friday?

It was never an EU thing, and it can stay NA (NA has no Melee Monday) even if it means I'll have to play on NA with my EU ping :(

Nekkid Mike Day started about a month before Melee Monday, but only caught on (and went official) a week before Melee Monday.

But I think they have different objectives.

As for NMD, I think if the overall feedback is generally positive, I'm sure the admins will be happy to put one up, especially with the new system.

I agree on this. I actually joined NA servers for Nekkid Mike days.

Sadly, I don't believe a single post is enough to change 'em people.

It's a simple enough idea. Last time it was ruined by constantly changing rules that were harshly enforced, players trying to exploit what little rules there were, and full plated trolls. The reason for it was completely lost, and probably still is by most.

It should be a fun day where what little clothing we get can look silly. A naked man wearing a Winged Great Helm is worth a laugh, not a ban. Putting on some red gloves for some unarmed boxing should not warrant a tk mob.

well it looks like a good majority would like to see this back. lets talk about rules and time.

For the most part id like to keep it simple and to the effect keep the day the same, Wednesday. Discuss.
Title: Re: Naked Mike Day

It's best to keep it simple, only melee weapons, no armor/ranged/horses. Every Wednesday.
Title: Re: Naked Mike Day
Post by: Dexxtaa on January 27, 2011, 02:40:35 pm
I reckon any hat would be fine, really. Hats shouldn't be a problem anyway.

Not like hitting the head is going to give us a SUPER BONUS now that the body is butt naked.

Wednesday would be great, all day. Melee only. It's a good opportunity for the archers to practice their infighting and positioning etc.

I'm all for it. It's sooo much fun, and it'll be so fucking refreshing to not have arrows and jarids flying everywhere.

Can we please try to observe the spirit of the event without turning into chocolate chip cookies? Kick the guy wearing a Klappvisor and Hourglass Gauntlets, but leave the people in bridal flower hats (like me) alone.

im thinking of allowing any lvl gear to be used but nothing for the body. comments?
Title: Re: Naked Mike Day
Post by: Dreakon_The_Destroyer on January 27, 2011, 05:14:20 pm
this sounds great! lol +1 yes for me

and i think Helms and Melee only. no other equiptment
Title: Re: Naked Mike Day
Post by: Devilize on January 27, 2011, 05:16:31 pm
i should be more thorough, what i meant was that you could use any lvl armor but you couldnt' wear anything for your body/chest. I think maybe I'd prefer that you not be allowed to wear anything for your legs either. as far as weapons go it would be only melee items including shields. no cav/archers/throwers/crossbow ect. no range at all.

Only helmet should be allowed, gloves add body armor and defeat the purpose of Naked Mike :o . Not to mention how funny a naked dude with a plate helmet looks like.

Hasn't Mike himself been known to wear gloves?

Yes, but for modding purposes, I think it's best that we keep it as simple as possible. If we even have the vague notion of giving any leeway, everyone is going to exploit.

I agree with Devilize. Footman melee combat only. Shields are okay. Any helm is okay.

Absolutely nothing else. That way it's much easier to mod (think of the admins yo).

True dat. My ride's car battery ran out. Good thing I didn't take the CTA, the fucking electric buses are shorting out like crazy and sliding everywhere. Fuckin' hilarious.

On a side note, it's funny to see how much of a panic people get in while trying to get on the Metra. They flip out over some white stuff..
God's jizzing all over Chicago.

 Footman melee combat only. Shields are okay.


I think shields are armor and should not be allowed. Not sure how it got "voted in" by 2 players saying okay. Take shields out. Its against the spirit of it. Mike could weigh in, but Im betting that without ranged flying everywhere he wouldn't have been forced to break out a buckler on these occasions that Dex is using as an excuse to support shields when armor is otherwise forbidden.

He used them in duels as well...
Hows it feel to be wrong?

Shields are ok for Naked Mike Day, no need to gimp 1h+shield builds.

Shields have been backed by admins and regular players since NMD inception.

There's no reason to stop shielders from doing what they do.

I'm a two hander, and I don't have a problem with it. Find your own way to beat them, instead of relying on the nerfing of a class to get a kill.

Nekkid Mike used a shield all the time. And you know, since he WAS Nekkid_Mike_RS, I believe I am more credible than you are to make the call on whether or not he used his buckler in different situations. We *do* hang out with him more than you do.

I think horses should be allowed, so more can participate in this melee circlejerk.

no horses. bump does damage without armor on...

I think the naked horsies would be fine after all they are in the spirit as well!
(in the first nekkid mike day we got to use unarmored horsies)

Whenever this event is in play, the 100 man server is always empty. Boy, were you guys wrong with the prediction that it would be popular.
