Holy war in Scotland: Turftracker tests Holy and Ruins tournament

A new kind of battle is coming to the Turftracker website. A player in the Scotland in-game chat announced on 29 October a test tournament for Saturday 31 October, and it comes with one strict rule: only takes of Holy or Ruins zones count towards the score.

Every other zone on the map is worth nothing in this contest. Busy squares, bridges and parks will not help anyone climb the table. For one day, the only ground that matters is holy ground and old stones.

The rules of engagement

• What counts: takes of Holy or Ruins zones only
• When: from 00:01 to 23:59 on 31 October
• Where: the tournament runs on the Turftracker website
• How to join: say so in the Scotland chat and you will be added

The organiser is clear that this is not a fight for glory. The tournament is described as just for fun and for testing. Think of it as a training camp before any real campaign: a chance for Turftracker to try out a new tournament format, and for players to see how a contest built around one type of zone feels.

There is no prize mentioned and no grand ceremony planned. But a test still needs soldiers, and the call has gone out. Turfers who want a place on the list can ask in the Scotland chat before the gates open.

The first Holy or Ruins take counts from 00:01 on 31 October. The last chance to score is 23:59 the same day.
