A team is composed of 8 new characters who will form a group that fights together, and survives together through all difficulties. This group's members cannot sustain in the game very long if they don't stick together, level up together and defend one another, therefore the key here is team work. Multiple games can run at the same time, depending on the number of participants and available referees.

This event is not recommended for beginners and those who are not familiar with the game mechanics as they will slow down the entire team progress and make it harder to survive.

1. General Rules

- You must add the host to your friends list (this is to prevent muling, cheating, etc)
- You must create a new hardcore character for this event
- You must all be different classes (in the cases of 8 players, one of you must be a different type of that class) and distribution will be decided before event starts
- Your new character will be name tagged (prefix or suffix will be given by the host before the event starts) example: TAG-Astinos
- You are not allowed to join any games (public games, go on runs, etc) with this character before the game made by host

2. Leveling

- You are not allowed to leave your teammate to die or you are disqualified

Two teams have started their journey to become the mighty survivors of today's ironman and even though only one team managed to complete all game difficulties (normal, nightmare, hell), all participants deserve our applause and respect. Everyone had an amazing time during a cumulative total of 24 hours gaming marathon and ubers were a blast by managing to kill one of the participants (paladin) but not before taking uber mephisto to the grave with him. Unfortunately last two ubers defeated remaining members of the second team and they live to fight another day.

Rewards:
All members reaching uber tristam earned an additional (1 x Sur) per each participant as a bonus for killing four out of a total of six uber bosses.
Maximum Possible Rewards: (15 x Vex) + (1 x Ohm) + (1 x Lo) + (1 x Sur) + (1 x Ber) per each participant.
