*FLAGSHIP RAFFLE*
![](http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/starwars/images/c/c7/Doombringer01.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20130206031726)
SUMMARY:
We are giving away a free flagship! This will work very similarly to our past guild lotteries. The raffle will revolve around the use of this random number generator. Buying 1 "ticket" will grant you 1 random number that will be entered into a master list of all tickets. At our next guild event (June 11th) we will use the generator to select a winning number.
Whichever member has the closest number to the winning one will win everything listed below:
- Harrower-Class Imperial Dreadnaught - Comes pre-decorated. Has all the standard utility items (banks/GTNs/etc) and over 300 different decos, including some very rare and expensive ones. Ship can be renamed and redecorated however the winner wants.
- Personal guild - It is impossible to simply give someone just a flagship by itself, so the winner will also get their own personal guild. It will come with a free guild name change unlock so the name can be changed to whatever the winner wants.
- Personal guild bank - A guild bank with 3 vaults (total of 270 slots) is also included. Lots of extra storage space.
- Easy ship expansions - The guild will unlock any 1 room on the ship, free of charge. We will also sell flagship plans to the winner at a discount if they wish to expand the ship further.
If you'd like to take a tour of the ship yourself, head over to the Flagship Leaderboard in the Stronghold/Crew Skill section of fleet and look for "Flagship: Flagship Giveaway"
This is the ship we are giving away. It's publicly listed so anyone can head over to the leaderboard and view it. Feel free to take a look before you buy tickets.
BUYING TICKETS:
Tickets cost 100,000 credits each and can be purchased from any officer. You have 2 options for purchasing tickets:
- Check the guild list and see if any officers are online. (Caporegime, Underboss, Consigliere, or Godfather ranks designate officers.) If there is an officer online, whisper them and let them know you'd like to purchase ticket(s). The officer will meet you somewhere so you can trade the cost of the ticket(s) to them.
- If there are no officers available, you can send an in-game mail to the character "Ticket-seller" stating the amount of tickets you wish to purchase -- with the cost of them attached to the mail.
This is the master list of tickets. Here you can view your tickets, along with all the others.
STEP-BY-STEP PROCESS:
- Member purchases ticket(s) from an officer.
- After receiving the cost of the ticket(s), officer will then immediately go to the random number generator and set the generator to put out a number between 1 and 100,000.
- Officer will then go to the masterlist of entries on the forum and add member's name + number(s) to the list. (ie. Siino -- 1234, 420, 80076, etc)
- At our next guild event, we'll use the number generator to select a winning number for the raffle. We will then compare this number to all of the ticket numbers and find the one that is closest to our winning number.
- We will then announce the winner.
- At the soonest opportunity, the winner will have one of their alts invited to the <Flagship Giveaway> guild where the flagship is located and given Guildmaster rank. The ship, the guild, and the bank will be all theirs to use as they see fit.
RULES:
- All ticket sales must go through an officer. Depositing credits into guild bank and saying "hey I got this number and my creds are in gbank" will not be allowed. Transaction with an officer is required in all cases, no exceptions.
- No one is permitted to choose their own numbers. We will keep everything completely random.
- To remain eligible to win, you must have at least one character present within the guild on the night of the event. Anyone who quits or gets permanently banned will have their tickets removed with them.
- There is no limit to the amount of tickets that can be purchased. You can buy 1 ticket or you can buy 1 million tickets, whatever you can afford.
- No discounts, loans, trades, paying later, etc. In order to get ticket for the lottery, you must personally pay the full price of 100k per ticket to an officer prior to any number being added to your name on the forum.
- Deadline for purchasing tickets is June 11th @ 6:00pm PST.
- Officers will not be allowed to participate.
- We will not use duplicate numbers. If the number generator gives out a number that someone else already has, we will simply generate another number.
- In the event of a tie, the win will go to the higher number. (Example: Say the winning number is 100. Guildie-1 has 95 and Guildie-2 has 105. Although both people are equally close to the winning number, Guildie-2 is higher so they will win.)
- Winner of the giveaway may not use the personal guild for conquest or any other purpose that might interfere with, cause problems for, or undermine BBB. Also, if changing the guild name to a variation of "Blood Bath and Beyond" you must receive permission from management first. Refusing to comply will result in removal from BBB.
*LEVEL 1 DUEL TOURNAMENT*

![](http://www.ddmsrealm.com/wp-content/gallery/tor-korriban/ddmsrealm-star-wars-korriban-academy-entrance.jpg)
PROCEDURE:
We will be having a Level 1 duel tournament on Korriban. It will take place outside the entrance to the Sith Academy, as seen in the image above. Obviously this is not meant to be something highly competitive as it's mainly for fun, laughs, and publicity. However, there will still be the same prize money we always give out. This is something everyone can get in on regardless of PvP skills/experience.
- The tournament will be in single-elimination format. (If you lose you're out of the category. If you win you'll fight against others who won their matches as well. This will continue until only one person is left - the person who won all their matches. Basically, it's last man standing.)
- All fighters will be invited to the guild + an ops group and randomly matched up with another fighter by the officer coordinating the fights.
- Fights will proceed in the order called out by the coordinating officer.
- The fighter that takes down their opponent first wins.
- All matches except for the final few will consist of only 1 round. The final matches will be 3 rounds.
RULES:
- Must be Level 1 and Sith Warrior or Inquisitor, but NOT Bounty Hunter or Agent. (Just create a new toon)
- There are no gear requirements/limits.
- Companions are NOT permitted.
- Stims, medpacs, adrenals, and grenades ARE permitted.
- Members who are not currently fighting must do their best to stay out of the way of those who are currently fighting. There is no designated ring so you'll have to rely on your eyes + common sense. Also, do not obstruct others' view with AoE's/oversized mounts/etc.
- Everyone must listen to the directions of the officers at all times.
- Officers ARE allowed to participate in this part of the event.
PRIZES:
1st place - 20,000,000 credits
2nd place - 15,000,000 credits
3rd place - 10,000,000 credits
*DATACRONS*
![](http://tor-decorating.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/7/2014/07/Master-Exhibit-Light-Datacrons.jpg)
PROCEDURE:
From 6:00PM - 8:00PM PST we will be doing summons/pulls to the 3 datacrons listed below. This will be open to the general public, however guildies will have priority over non-guildies. - Several coordinators (the officers as well as any volunteer guildies) will be split up among the 3 datacrons and in position to summon/pull/guide/etc.
- There will be 3 different ops groups, 1 for each datacron -- all running simultaneously over the course of 2 hours.
- Designated coordinators will be advertising in chat and you will only need to whisper them the name of the datacron(s) you want. (Ex. "hey I need rishi and makeb pls")
- You will then be invited to a group and given further instructions.
DATACRONS:
This is a list of the datacrons we will be providing, along with a brief summary of what to expect:
- Imperial Fleet (+10 All Stats) -- This datacron is located on fleet, in the Ziost Shadow's museum which is accessed via the northern elevator on the Bridge Deck. To obtain this one, you must posses a crystal that is located in the museum. After arriving in the museum, a coordinator will guide you to the crystal and ensure you get it. After this you will be summoned near the datacron, but not directly to it -- the game does not allow this. It's no issue though, as we'll have sorcs positioned at the datacron to pull you right up to it.
- Makeb (+10 Endurance) -- This datacron is located on Makeb at the end of the worst fucking datacron path in the game. To obtain this one, you'll simply be summoned directly to it. Can literally be done in just a couple clicks, without the need to repeat climbing/falling for multiple hours.
- Rishi (+40 Mastery) -- This is actually 4 datacrons located right beside eachother on Rishi and they are part of a secret questline. They require certain rare items and once activated they are only clickable for a short period of time. Only coordinators will need to worry about the questline + rare items, people getting the datacrons will not. Due to the mechanics involved, we will have to do this one in "waves." The ops group will be filled to 24 with people who need it, then the coordinators will summon to datacron and activate it once everyone is there. This will allow all 24 people to obtain the datacron in one go. Then the ops group will be emptied and refilled, repeating the process. We will most likely do 3 waves for this one, which allows for 72 people to get it in total. (If anyone has data packets from the grophets on Rishi, please donate them to the Storage vault in gbank.)
RULES:
- Don't be an asshole to the randoms -- This part of the event will be public and we will run into a lot of non-guildies, some that we may not like so much. It is important that nobody causes any conflict or drama and that we remain as neutral as possible.
- All tips must go to a coordinator -- If someone offers you a tip and you are not a coordinator, you must direct them to someone who is. Anyone found to be taking tips/donations for themselves will be removed from guild.
- Be patient -- A lot of this will require some periods of waiting, so you must be patient. Coordinating large amounts of people is stressful enough without "omg are we ready yet?
!!!!111" every 5 seconds. Please do not get impatient or attempt to rush things.
- Don't waste space or time -- When summons go out, do NOT miss them. Pay attention to chat and listen to directions. After you get your datacron, leave the group to make room for someone else who needs it.
*OFFICER PROMOTIONS*

*GIVEAWAYS*
![](http://s2.quickmeme.com/img/0d/0d93be4940d272d3b6e8b22a8b653120a0ddde978d49de156f1fc556eb6a1607.jpg)
After we've finished up with the things listed above, we will move on to the giveaways. As usual, the prizes will be various high value items such as mounts, decos, armor sets, weapons, emotes, etc. We refuse to cheap out on prizes and give you junk bullshit, so it will definitely be worth your time to participate.
For these giveaways, officers will be taking all the names of eligible participants and assigning them numbers with the random number generator we use for the lottery. On June 10th (the night prior to the event) the officers will meet up and go over the participant/number list to select the highest numbers and assign them prizes. Then on event night, when we get to this part all we have to do is announce winners and hand out prizes. If you'd like to participate, the giveaway categories are listed below. Deadline for entering giveaways is June 10th @ 8pm PST.
You may participate in as many giveaways as you'd like, there is no limit. There's also no limit on how many giveaways you can win either. We will do at least 5-10 prizes per category at the bare minimum, but if there is more participation then expected in a certain category we'll increase the prize amount to be more fitting. Officers are not allowed to participate in any giveaways.

*MEN OF BBB CALENDAR*
![](http://i.imgur.com/Y0uEKzP.jpg)
The officers will be releasing a sexy calendar which will feature an officer posing with a certain theme for each month. The image above is just a small taste of what is coming. Prepare to be highly aroused by this magnificent work of art!
*GUILD CHANGES*
Immediately after the event, there will be some new changes taking effect:
- Instead of "Main guild + alt guild" we will now refer to them as "BBB 1 + BBB 2"
- There will be a 3rd BBB which will be an actual alt guild in the traditional sense. It's sole purpose will be the dumping of alts and it will only be used for conquest during really easy weeks like Total Galactic War.
- BBB 1 and 2 will have the same conquest/inactivity rules. BBB 3 (aka the new alt guild) will not have either of those rules apply to it.
- BBB 2 (aka the old alt guild) will be taking conquest more seriously and 1st place pushes will become the normal thing. The goal is to get it to the same level of dominance as BBB 1.
- Conquest contests will happen every single week now. Top 3 point earners from BBB 1 and top 3 point earners from BBB 2 will all receive credit rewards. This applies to individual toons only, not entire legacies. (Comparing legacy scores of everyone in guild is very time consuming to do every week, so we're keeping it simple.)
- Prizes for weekly conquest contest:
1st place = 3 mil
2nd place = 2 mil
3rd place = 1 mil
- There will still occasionally be special conquest contests where entire legacy scores are counted and the prize money is bigger. There will always be notice of this ahead of time.
- The guild site URL will change from www.bb-b.freeforums.net to bbbswtor.org
All guildies are highly encouraged to participate in this. There's always tons of people at these events and it's a great time. Everyone in BBB is welcome to attend and participate, so don't hesitate. There's plenty of free shit to win!
