Faceman Peck 93 Posted September 15, 2012 how are you managing security? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
avalontreman 89 Posted September 15, 2012 I am not running this, I'm just a participant, but the server is locked with a password. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SN3AKY007 0 Posted September 15, 2012 This looks fun! I'd like to join! I wonder if they'll host more of these? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Faceman Peck 93 Posted September 15, 2012 so you lock it down with a password, with a potential group of hackers inside? Without a player screening process (which I can't imagine how one would do) how would this ensure security? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
avalontreman 89 Posted September 15, 2012 Again, I am only a participant, not the people running this. You wanna find that out, go ahead and email them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Timberwolf (DayZ) 118 Posted September 15, 2012 I don't like this idea at all, it doesn't fit DayZ in my opinion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aHzdaNny 49 Posted September 15, 2012 I like this Hunger Games-inspired idea. Think it could be a great event for everyone taking part.As for paranoid security questions:Description states you spawn fresh on a private, password locked server so it's not the end of your life if you don't survive long. It also states that there's two people shoutcasting it live. Should a script kid occur, he'll be gone within seconds. An event like this can't be done any safer than what they're doing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

avalontreman 89 Posted September 15, 2012 So they have had 115 applicants for the tournament. They are now filled, and working out the final kinks to the map.I will be streaming my perspective of the tournament on my Twitch.tv account under the same username as here (twitch.tv/avalontreman)For commentary and a look at everything else, this is the link for the live stream from the people hosting the event: http://www.fpsgeneral.com/streams/dayz/59-dayz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
