Weekly Wrap-up #3

The third week of Open Beta has brought us a number of new community members, general improvements to gameplay, and much more.

The following is a recap of a number of the community events that took place this last week. If you missed out in participating in any of these great events, follow us on Twitter and our RSS RSS feed, next week is sure to bring another batch of events and contests that you should participate in!

Again, if you have yet to introduce yourself to the R&R Community, please say hello.

This week's poll asked: What kind of deck/character are you focusing on?

You voted: All out offense!

• All out offense: I intend on “shock and awe”-ing my opponents into submission! 50%
• All out defense: I can’t get hurt, if I can’t get hit! 10%
• Balanced: I like it when all things are equal! 40%

On Tuesday, we challenged you to talk about Rise & Ruin all across the Internet and you did, in a number of entertaining ways.

Our favorites, and the winners of Intro Packs are: ArcAholic, Geb, Draxom, Adubmac, and Muto.

Congrats, and thanks for spreading the word!

Friday Night was our third installment of Friday Night Fights. A great group of players cycled through during the two hour event, earning themselves some great rewards and having the opportunity to be a part of a very interesting developing storyline.

You can catch up on the story through these posts:

• "Remain Vigilante, Aphroridae." - The jix`Su Queen warns of Septu's rise.
• "Call to Disorder." - Septu announces his desire to establish a splinter-cell of the Hive.
• "The Rise of Lord Rakarth." - Lord Veles sends his Champion to make an example of Septu.
• Septu versus Rakarth Video. See the drama unfold on the battlefield!

Join us next Friday Night for another installment of Friday Night Fights.

Finally, Trivia Challenge #3 asked players about the current favorite Character Race, the jix`Su: What are each of the names of four current Modifier Cards and what element does each of them harness, respectively?

The answer was: Silver Tongue, Posion; Pandora's Box - Air; Phlogiston - Fire; Northern Lights - Ice

Only 7 players answered correctly, leaving 45 Skill Points unclaimed, but great work to: Geb, Draxom, ArcAholic, Pitraptor, Chetyre, Junsa80, and Masteraramil.

Have a great week Rise & Ruin Community!
