Gamers still waging war on either Myth: The Fallen Lords or Myth II: Soulblighter may be interested in an upcoming net party. Hosting the event will be Mariusnet, which is celebrating its one year anniversary this Friday, August 16th, with a series of competitions and door prizes guaranteed to delight even the most hardcore Myth fan.

The two main competitions are as follows:

Also, there is a day long contest, starting at 7am eastern Friday and running until 3am eastern (Saturday morning if you want to call it that). What is the contest? Your mission, if you wish to accept it, is to beat as many different Bungie solo maps (you can play them solo or cooperative, your choice) on legendary difficulty. The person winning the most different TFL maps and the most different SB maps will each receive a prize. If you want to participate in this contest, the games *must* be played in a tracked room (tourney rooms are tracked) and you may be asked to verify your wins, so save the films!

Prizes for the Coop Challenge - you get to have an easter egg command of your choice added to the Mariusnet Server (it does have to be in line with the mariusnet user agreement rules of course). The TFL winner will also receive an Autographed (by those Bungie employees still at Bungie who worked on the game) TFL v1.0 CD, suitable for framing. The SB winner will receive a Soulblighter miniature. If there is a tie for the most different maps won, then the person who got the most different maps won earlier in the day will be the winner.

Interested gamers must have a Mariusnet account in order to participate in the events. Those who wish to register can do so at Mariusnet.com.

For those unfamiliar with the service, Mariusnet is a 3rd party server that hosts both Myth and Myth II online gaming services, similar to the folks at PlayMyth.net, who do the same with Myth II and hopefully Myth: TFL and Myth III: The Wolf Age soon.
