More Information about Pyro contests
- Please note that times are subject to change once in a while! These changes will be posted here, on the E! channel, and the events forum.
- This is a proposed schedule. If you would like to have it changed, please post a suggestion on the forums so we can discuss it. Thanks!
- The schedule probably extends past the end of the first telling. When the first telling ends, the remaining contests will be cancelled. A new schedule will be made for the second telling when it makes sense to do so.
- Limited glower contests are done using the honour system. Judges will be informed of the limit before judging, so you can expect that a firework that clearly exceeds the limit will get a poor score. A limit on glowers does not directly limit gunpowder usage. You may use multiple mortars as long as the total number of glowers for all of them does not exceed the contest limit.
- The RP stadium is intentionally not included in the rotation. Currently the RP Takeskot court is unusable because of lag. As Pyro and Takeskot have a symbiosis in participants, the RP stadium will not be used until the RP Takeskot court is fixed.
- The SE stadium will be included on occasion, but is not part of the main rotation. The WP cost for returning from SE is significant, not just for participants, but for the necessary judges also.
- If you would like to participate in a contest, but lack the required glowers, gunpowder, etc. - please let someone know, we can help!! Your participation WILL help everyone else participating, so please ask. (Elders of RP Pyromaniacs and 7L Pyromaniacs are good places to start)
- If you aren't sure if you want to participate in fireworks, send a /chat or /tell to one of us with the words "I'd like to know more about fireworks", so we can let you know what is involved.

losiris:- Seems a little unfair that SE is not inlcuded on the rotation. There are quite a number of people in the SE willing to take part in Pyro and you seem to have forgot that anywhere up North is a considerable drain on 'our' Waypoint time. With limited competitions held in the SE we will have no chance of passing (either by not being online or not having the WP time available).
Sord: If you wish to host a competition (in SE or anywhere else), please add it to the schedule. Hosting a competition requires little effort beyond getting the word out that there is a competition. It might be good to do an informal poll to see if you'll have enough contestants, but even that isn't required.
GarrettH: SE was in every second rotation. I have always been very aware of that problem for SE residents and try to make a fair schedule for everyone. Good to know that there are SE folks wanting to participate, I hope to see lots of you at our next SE event.
Sord: SE is now fully in the rotation, though we don't have much time left...
