Whoa - a bunch of people are fighting me while I’m not even there. It’s like when I killed my Tamagotchi all over again.

[My character](http://gangrelated.mybrute.com) just made LV18!

I’d like to plead my request for an influx of unspoiled pupils. It’s taking me longer and longer to level up and I could use pupils that will provide me experience as they level up and will continually level up their ownselves.

Please?

My character has finished in the top 32 of a tournament, but only once. I’d like for him to finish higher in the future. You guys can help.

I thought I could give you an unspoiled pupil? What makes Hiram spoiled?

Hiram is spoiled in the sense that he didn’t give me any experience when he became my pupil. Meaning, he already had a true master or was from an IP that already corresponds to a pupil of mine, if I’m not mistaken.

☹

EDIT: I do appreciate the effort though, so thank you for that. 🙂

An IP that corresponds to _any_ pupil, in fact. Only one xp-giving pupil per IP.

What do you mean by “broke”? Down for maintenance? Because the site _is_ down for maintenance on a daily basis and for a few hours. Otherwise, it’s been find and dandy for me. Pretty much zero time-outs in the past week or so also.

I noticed that it’s particularly busy around 3 or 4 pm PDT, when everyone is given their 3 fights per day allowance. I usually have to reload once or twice around that time or wait till later when the server is less busy.

Because their time zone is halfway across the world from me, I just wait until 12noon to get _yesterday’s_ fights in. 😃

Therein lies my primary fighting strategy. One cannot defeat me if one is not conscious. 🙂

What’s the deal with tournaments?

Do you get any benefits from participating, or is it just a fun side show?

Does participating in a tournament prevent you from using your 3 normal fights on tournament day?

No benefit from participating in a tournament. If you finish high in a tournament, you get a special ranking. Go to the cell of GangRelated and it says “Berserk Soul” next to his level meter. This title denotes that he’s finished in the top 32 of a tournament.

Participating in a tournament does not contribute to your daily amount of matches.
