Basic play overview: Once Stage One and Two are shown as available on the campaign map, and your enrolment has been confirmed you may begin your journey and participate in the battles. 

Basic battle instructions will be available in each Stage post so read them carefully, pending your character class you will have different types of attacks to achieve victory and you will have 3 fresh life points at the start of each stage. 

During each stage you will have a single chance to pick the pocket your foe and gain an item that may help or hinder your chances. You will also be able to summon items from an item shop using either Steem or Trophy-tokens (pending your level - all players start at level 0 and go up a level for every two Stage posts you win on the first attack). Trophy-tokens are awarded to people for great content in competitions on Steemit - See @trophy-token for more information. 

                               Cut the crap! - How to win the Steem:


During Stages 1 - 4 and 6

It's easy, as each Stage is posted you simply reply using the command for your character class. The idea is to try and beat the foe on the first attack on every Stage. Instructions on how to attack for your class will be in each Stage posted...so don't worry too much for now if your new. If you don't win on the first attack you must keep trying until all your life points for the stage are used (3 attempts). If you move on to another stage before being successful, your remaining life points for the previous Stage become invalid and won't help you come the final boss round. The idea is to be cunning, pickpockets, fights Gobbo's, save life points and buy items...do what ever it takes to win on the first attempt, failing that winning on the second or third attempt is still good as the remaining life points will be added to your final attacks in the boss round.

During Optional Stage 5

When optional Stage 5 comes up, you can have a crack at bonus Steem prize by being the top IBT PVP player -  There is risk though.... It costs one life point to by pass this stage (so only 2 life points will go towards your final rolls against the boss should you decide not to play Stage 5). However, If you play you get all 3 life points, but like every other Stage if you use them all up, they won't contribute to your final rolls against the boss. You may quit playing at any time, preserving your remaining life points, but can only carry over a max of 2 life points.

During The final Boss Round

  • If you managed to get to level 1, your item counts if you purchase a level 1 item from the shop.
  • If your still level 0, you can still buy an item.
  • Most significant tip - all your life points from previous rounds not used are added up and added to your final attack(s) against the Boss (you get two shots, best attack is your final attack score). You must care for your IBT character and do your best to get them to the end with the best level and number of life points possible to maximize your chances to win the end prize. IF things don't go well in the first few stages, don't give up! there are some good level 1 items that could twist the end result your way and the top players luck may not hold out in the boss round. Level1 items do not stack (your only allowed 1), but per round pickpocket and Gobbo items which only apply in the round you get do stack with any level item. 
  • If the number of life points you saved is low, risk a pickpocket
  • If your a level 2 Char risk it all and use the special attack.

Unlike previous IBT you must play strategically through out all the Stages to have the best chance of gaining glory and winning the big Steem at the end...hehe well in theory at least, lets see how it goes

Confused? don't be... just enrol, watch what others do and play along - it's been designed so once you understand it should only take a few minutes every night to play and have fun, before returning to your hard work of posting quality content and earning Steem :)

The people in the village marketplace all paused and turned their heads towards the tavern where loud crashes and smashing of bottles could be heard. There was a momentary silence and then shortly after the doors to the tavern burst open to reveal a warrior dragging two passed out thieves onto the side of the road by the collar.

Within moments the local sheriff and his deputy arrived and proceeded to pay the man his bounty for capturing the two thieves. The warrior was furious and after a short argument assaulted the officers rendering them unconscious before riding off with one of their horses.

Before leaving the village entirely he circled back and yelled out "FIAT IS DEAD, I'm riding to #IBT 5 to get me some STEEM!". He then proceeded to open his leather satchel and drop something onto the ground before riding off into the distance.

A small girl went to see what the man had dropped, it was a business card:

"Spike - Warrior Mercenery

After an evening on the town in his finest regalia, Raktan the Orc Archer meanders through the streets on the way back to his hotel. The wine has been fabulous, the company splendid, and the food... words are a tool too crude to describe such magnificence.

With everything right in the world, a foul wind blows an evil filth covered leaflet through the streets. The leaflet, covered in mud and horse feces, is blown by the forces of fate through the streets until it lands on the well dressed Orc.

Raktan the Orc Archer peels the filthy, shit-covered paper off of his immaculate tunic. It has one puzzling phrase printed on it.

"Do you want to play?"

Raktan the Orc Archer sighs, crumples the leaflet into a ball and throws it on the ground. As he begins walking with determination towards his hotel, he mutters under his breath "I would like to play"...

Welcome Serra Angel, the warrior your enrolment has been confirmed.

I'm in!

(oh, and my shadow is also in)...

I'm just a young school aged lad who likes to study with my form mates and occasionally eat an apple for dessert. I am neither an archer, warrior or wizard. If I study real hard, Father said he might be able to get me a job as a Linesman in his factory. I might even be able to work my way up to Supervisor in 10 years.

Sometimes things get smashed around me and I don't know why... maybe a warrior follows me around?

By the power vested in me by @lordnigel, welcome to IBT5. Since no name has been provided for either you or your shadow, I will declare that Shadow the warrior has been confirmed and enrolled. Let me know if the shadow has another name that he should be called by.

Sounds good to me. I'm gonna call the kid Gavin. He looks like a Gavin.

Gavin and his warrior shadow... doo doo doo do, having adventures... doo doo doo do.

Hmmn a shadow warrior eh this should be interesting..

Also for adding to the mystery of our IBT - a trophy is waiting if you! just reply here with your bitshares account name within 7 days

I would like to play, thank you.

Lady P is sitting this tournament out as she has been sent on a top secret UltimaCorp mission, but her distant relative Cousin Agatha has reluctantly consented to step in as her representative, and will be utilising her wizardly talents.

Cousin Agatha has long been thought by the family as a bit 'odd' ...

... but she can be very entertaining at the monthly Ladies' Auxilliary Luncheons, and she breeds the most intelligent cats in the whole county. She can quite often be found wandering through the meadows with a large basket filled with herbage of one variety or another, and is regularly sought out for her ointments and tinctures - although treating old men for gout and the pox is not on her list of favourite things to do.

By the power vested in me by @lordnigel, welcome to IBT5. Cousin Agatha the wizard is confirmed and enrolled.

I like polite cat ladies hehe

You may have a trophy fitting of your station Cousin of Lady P. Please reply here with your bitshares account within 7 days to receive.

Why thank you, Lord Nigel. I shall be sure to report back to Lady P how gentlemanly you were to her cousin.

The a/c name is: raven-ruis :)

Done :)

Hi, sorry so late. Looking forward to the fun.

I want to play as Angel Food again please.

1C8CD2D4-4F39-4227-BB2F-49F2ECC34B4B.gif

Angel Food is a taco eating donut that became a wizard. He plays bass and likes dipping other donuts in coffee.

Angel Food once lived in a spaceship (The Moon), but was banished for crashing it into earth. He claims he was distracted. Who cares, that sucks! Stupid excuse too... probably on the toilet...

At this point, Angel Food is probably permanently banished here for chronic cannibalism. Other than the occasional sodomy he endured in the previous adventure, Angle Food is better off staying.

He has a fondness for Dragons and is actually a distant cousin to Space Godzilla. Angel Food claims he can’t speak Dragon.

Be sure to say hello and to Angel Food along the way. He will probably ask if you’ve seen the bathroom, so if you wanna just tell him where it is right away, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks @steemseph

Good Luck Everyone!

By the power vested in me by @lordnigel, welcome back, champ. Angel Food the wizard is confirmed and enrolled for IBT5.

Haha crazy man! yeah I can speak dragon either

'cause your unusual like me you qualify for a trophy token, please reply here with your bitshares account within 7 days to receive.

Your book, I can't believe I'm not reading it.

I'm on hols for a few days, if I do manage some internet time (and can find some connectivity) at night - I'll give it a read. Good luck!

oh! how fun!!! enjoy every moment of your holiday!!!

(and chapter 7 of my book got Curied! my first one!!! so thrilling :)

if you get time to read it - i'd love your take! it's one of those stories that unfolds over time... leaves you guessing a bit... but I think it's getting to the part where things start to become even more clear!

nice that you can catch up all at once... some people are beating me over the head to release faster hahahahaha (which is great to have people excited over it!)

have a great vaca!!!

Cool! - Sounds great and if you got Curied must be good! I like a good read, but hardly get time apart from when on hols

Will let you know what I thought - All the best :)

oh.... the easiest way... Here is the latest chapter. Fireflies - Chapter 8. All the previous chapters are listed at the bottom of chapter 8 :) that way - if you DO get time.... you don't have to look all over my blog :)
Chapter 1 was from last year, so I wasn't able to edit it with links to the next chapter. Anyway... there you go! LOL (and you can certainly just read chapter 8!!! but... it might be a bit confusing.... )

LOLOLOLOL you saw through me!!!! hahahahaha i'm really scared ;)

i need to work out for a few more weeks and work on building up my muscles and courage! hahahaha

My name is Judge Killary Dredd. I hear there is an Interactive Battle Tournament that needs some Justice to be served. I would like to enroll my archery skills to enact that justice from a distance.

Judge Killary Dredd.jpg

While I may seem hard on my Judge, Jury, & Executioner exterior, I am really just a soft-hearted person on the inside, seeking the approval and admiration of others. My lack of confidence comes from my low self-esteem. I overcompensate at times by abusing the power of my authority.

I have recently taken up archery as a pass time and look forward to sharpening my skills on those Middle to Low class law breaking scum as well as the right wing Neo-Con fascists that floods the realm of IBT. I am sure there are foes and bosses too along the way that need to be dealt with. I am here to protect and serve... (mostly myself...) but If I can't kill them... I know someone who can, and if that doesn't work... I can just get them suicided or heart-attacked! I have a foundation and some special servers as well as arrows for days!

So, don't worry.... JUSTICE WILL BE SERVED Because...
I AM THE LAW!

Haha nice about time we had some Justice in the IBT house ! Welcome Judge Killary Dredd the archer your enrolment has been confirmed.

Please proceed to Stage one when ready to clean out some scum :)

Note: You have won a trophy token, please respond here with your bitshares account name, within 7 days to receive.

Why thank you @LordNigel! I am really looking forward to this whole experience... and so is JKD. I will need to set up a bitshares account and get back with that account name. I am a bit nervous... but I know this is going to be super fun.

On My Way to Stage One

ZOOL would like to play - and crush his enemies bone by bone

Sweeeet!, glad you could make it mate.

Zool the Warrior your enrolment is confirmed. Proceed when ready :)

Hello, thank you for delegate, however, the minimal requirement is 5 SP.

I would like to enroll but I am on my mobile phone so if you remember me awesome if not just give me random :D

@positivity420 Mobile phone is the same. Just use the browser and look for mentions on Steemit and Busy.org also. I use mobile a lot. (Iphone) Let me know if you have a tech-ish issue with your phone, I have a good throwing arm.

Just create a character. Think of a name. Use a picture of your cousin's, uncle's, in-law's, gold fish tank's, skeleton statue or something. A wizard can look like anything imho.

Thanks for advices but I didn't mean it like that, I meant it cos I was not home until now, and I participated in fights way before interactive tournaments were even in planning ;)

mighty illusionist of 3 ducks quacking

Description: One eyed Illusionist recently escaped from mental institution, beware.

Cool.. glad your back! IBT has been missing 3 ducks, there's been a few updates/changes to game play so give each post a good read. not that my instructions are that great hehe

Welcome 3 ducks quacking the wizard your enrolment has been confirmed.

Ayyy good to be back :D Definitely will read tommorrow, it's late atm :))

Oh snap! One eyed and illusionists from mental institutions don’t mess around. You’ll have many friends here, says Angel Food.

I bet xD Why angel food LOL since when do angels eat :D

Angel Food is my winning character from IBT4. The name “Angle” is just a nice word for cannabalist in this case, but his name’s origins are still debated.

SORRY NO MORE PLAYERS FOR IBT#5 - ENROLMENT HAS CLOSED!

Final enrollment list:

ibt5enr.png

For @lordnigel and other players' reference:

  • Any cell in the stage columns (D-I, labeled with headers S1-S6) that has the number 31 appearing indicates a player who passed a stage on the first attempt and earned a share of the STEEM prize pool for that stage. S1 = stage 1, S2 = stage 2, etc. If a cell has anything else, it's not a first attempt pass.
  • B$ (column L) = current banked life points
  • FV (column M) = flawless victories (stage wins on the first attempt)
  • LVL (column N) = character level
  • MOD (column P) -- indicates permanent modifiers in play. For most folks they will have one of 4 possible entries: (1) blank if level 0, (2) 0 if level 1 but hasn't paid for their special item yet, (3) +2 if level 1 and has paid for their special item, (4) +2 S if level 2 and has paid for the special spell.

I'll probably post updated screenshots after each stage post reaches its deadline/payout, so everyone can see the final result of who should get rewarded for that stage.

Really nice job mate. Thanks so much from myself and on behalf of the players.

Psst I'm working on the code so players can display what they need to hit to win if they are confused during a stage, meaning it takes their special field into account and any items they have picked up. I may need to implement over a couple of IBT as it's hard and got some bugs. You presenting the info like this is helpful as I can consider how/what to code and what game play changes maybe needed as well..Super cool!
