    So at the end of the year 2014, MCPVP held the Quarter Quell a second time and since then have been doing it (with the exception of April, due to 1.8 upgrades) at the end of each month. There was one planned for the end of May, (mcpvp.com/tournaments) but MCPVP became part of Brawl and I'm not sure whether these will continue to happen on Brawl or if it will just be taken out altogether. Can someone from Brawl decide what happens here?

    Also, it says on the allowed mods page that REI's minimap is allowed. In HG, minimaps in general were banned due to convenience of finding caves, easy to see towers that normally would be hidden, waypoints were also an advantage (due to easy cave and swamp finding), etc. etc. etc.

    We will host more competitions for HG and CTF in the future.

    Only Minimaps showing the surface are allowed, cave mapping is not allowed.
    We do not believe the ability to see towers and waypoints give a game-changing advantage.

    If that tower has a trap in it it's a pretty big deal imo

    It does change the game A LOT as people can instantly go to temples, villages and random chests instantly and get better armor.

    Traps are one of the main strategies in the hardcore games, and a lot of them come in towers. Having people being able to see into towers like this so easily would make it very hard to hide a trap or make sure it isn't visible. A person who can see a hidden tower trap with a mod has a significant advantage over someone who has absolutely no clue that there is a trap there.
