ladies and lords of Abella are no strangers to hard labour. Callused hands and sun-kissed faces are the mark of those who paid their dues at the fields digging trenches and plowing fields that stretch to the horizon. A trusty shovel is all a worker needs to completely transform the landscape. However, make no mistake - when push comes to shove, the same shovel may become a dangerous weapon...
The International Labor day seems like a perfect opportunity to pay homage to the weapon of the working feudal class. We are bringing back King of the Hill - a much beloved event that sets apart NPC peasants and true shovel whisperers!

A player's goal is to be the first to climb the hill and sit on the throne. Players can use shovels to knock down other competitors!
No late entry - you must be at the venue when event starts. Depending on the attendance participants may be divided into groups, each group will be invited to their respective lobby.
Binding spot will be provided on the venue.
No stones in pockets! - remove ALL gear from your character (equipped and from inventory). Rags and shovels are the only things allowed. Shovels will be provided by administration at the venue.
No violence wasted! - players MUST NOT fight in the lobby. In the lobby, players wait for a signal from the host.
When all players have been checked and equipped with a shovel, the host gives a signal to start the event. The moment the doors to the hill open, it's shovel time!
When one of the players sits on the throne, a round ends. Depending on the attendance:
if divided by groups: the winner of a group advances to the next round tournament-style.
if all participants in one group: the winner is decided in the first round; after that, participants return to the lobby, 2nd and 3rd places are decided in round 2 and 3 respectively.
In case of rule violations, a GM will remove your character with no chance of returning to the contest.
No looting defeated opponents allowed.
