Weekly Wrap-up #2

The second week of Open Beta has shown a number of marked improvements, especially a huge decrease in load times for all players.

The following is a recap of a number of the community events that took place this week. If you missed out in participating in any of these great events, follow us on Twitter and add our new 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 part of Rise & Ruin are you enjoying the most so far?

You voted everything: 3D Battles, R&R's Epic Storyline, and Collecting Cards

• 3D battles: I love seeing my characters act out the card actions! 19%
• Epic storyline: I can’t get enough of the ongoing saga between The Rulers! 31%
• Collecting cards: I am all about building the best deck! 13%
• All of the above and then some! 38%

Friday Night was our second installment of Friday Night Fights. A huge thanks to the great group of players that fought their hearts out for two hours and earned themselves some nice prizes for attending. Keep an eye on the news feed for the next scheduled Fight Night!

Finally, Trivia Challenge #2 asked players about the current favorite Character Race, the jix`Su: What bonuses are afforded to the jix`Su? Alternatively, what penalties do they face?

The answer was: Bonuses: Water-based attacks and piercing weapons; Penalties: Weaknesses against fire-based attacks.

The first five players who answered correctly were: Geb, ArcAholic, adubmac, Draxom, and Pitraptor.

Enjoy the Intro Packs you won -- and remember, these cards can be traded among yourselves, and with other players who have purchased cards!
