### Retrolandia Speedrun Event

Feedback
* "I like the chance to earn previously offered skins." ~BakedCupcake
* "At double the tokens, and perhaps/hopefully double the loyalty, these throwback events can be cool." ~Unclewich
* "Idea for future speedrun events: Increase the reward based on whether or not the captain started much earlier." ~Skatrzoo
* "my only feedback on the event is ... why 7 chapters? or does stream raiders just secretly operate in prime numbers?" ~GameCowTV
* "I got to the bonus tiers which is good enough. The big problem for me with the speedrun event is the skin chest." ~MouseyPounds
* "To me, the event speed it's irrelevant. Just stop being so stingy and cheap with the gold!!!" ~Speedy\_Gwen
* "Personally I do not like shelling out $10 for 2 weeks as opposed to a full length event. I may occasionally accept it but I would skip the battle pass if you do it too often" ~Wahooka
* "speedrun was good. Just need to reduce gold level loyalty down to 30 battles, not 50." ~psyphon71 *(in chat)*

### Versus: Rules for Duels

Rules have been added to the Duel Lobby that Host can pick. Host can also pick the map to Duel on. Some rules only work on some maps. Rules can affect just the Host, just the Rival, or both players.
Some rules impact unit selection, like Ban: Legendaries, others are like mini-game modes in themselves, like Protect the President (Protect the Captain).
Duels rules will roll out NEXT WEEK! Kicking off Duels with a stream that will be hosted by ctv\_Rhada on the CaptainTV Twitch Channel.
* Thomas pointed out that some rules won't prevent units from being placed (full ban) but instead just make the units useless by exploding as soon as the battle starts (soft ban).

## Trivia

* "Rhada's rules for cool Duels" Dev Stream was planned for Wednesday September 20th, 2023, but Thomas and Brad are not sure that was the correct date since there is possibly scheduling conflicts.
* Thomas and Brad did a live demo of the Project: Arena Alpha on stream. During this demo, the healer was the only hero still using StreamRaiders assets. Candy Faction units and Uncommon/Rare units were also still using StreamRaiders assets. Candy Faction is going to be taking a hiatus during the Alpha.
* During their Demo on stream, the name to call the group who plays under a Streamer hasn't been decided yet. So it says "Tribe" in some places but be called "House" in others. Brad said both Tribe and House are not liked internally and will probably be changed to something else. Brad ended up making some *"lore"* for Project: Arena to explain their idea of what it will represent. Short version of the *"lore"* is the Royalty of a kingdom/portion of Streamlandia (where Project: Arena takes place) is gone/passed away, and the arena is being used to figure out who is the best. The Streamers are the heads/leaders of a house/tribe/whatever who are battling in these arenas to become the champions to fight the evil that took/killed the Royalty. This is not exactly what the canon is, but an idea being used to explain it.
* Raid call: *No Official Raid Call*
* They Raided Circuit\_Witch, they were playing Stream Raiders, it was also their 5-Year Stream Anniversary. They were granted the Exclusive Dev drops.
