Precision Helicopter Rappelling Challenge and Sparrow Showcase
Steady yourselves and prepare for the Precision Helicopter Rappelling Challenge and Sparrow Showcase! In theory, it's simple. Hover over the target and have the passenger lower down the rope from an Annihilator Stealth ($3,870,000/$2,902,500), Annihilator ($1,825,000) or Maverick ($780,000) helicopter. If you miss, however, your passenger will glibly descend down into the cold water, destined to swim back to the shoreline stairs to be collected from behind the gate for another attempt. Don't have one of those expensive helicopters? No problem! Participate as a passenger, whose mission it is to actually hold the button to lower the rope, and whom gets the glory of standing upon the pedestal. Ultimately, it is the passenger who is in control of the precise location of the landing!
Additionally, on the side of the Precision Helicopter Rappelling Challenge, we will show off our Sparrows, because pretty much everyone should have one of those (and if you don’t, you should.)
Preps
1. Optional: Purcase a Helicopter from the following list. It is recommended to modify it in your hangar to truly make it unique. You can then call your personal one, and deliver the Pegasus one for another HALPer to use, and as cold spare in case of any “accidents”.
| Heli | Price | Site |
|---|---|---|
| Annihilator Stealth | $3,870,000/$2,902,500 | Warstock C&C |
| Annihilator | $1,825,000 | Elitás Travel |
| Maverick | $780,000 | Elitás Travel |
2. Optional: Prepare a suitable swimming outfit, a scuba outfit, and pilot outfit.
Event Itinerary
1. Join on gritz_ at the time of the event.
Depending on turnout, we may organize into different sized groups and play a variety of different modes:
Precision Race, where up to 10 teams of 2 (1 pilot and 1 passenger) compete head-to-head to see who can place their passengers on the poles the quickest.
Team Battle, where we split into evenly sized teams, (1 pilot and 2-5 passengers) where the goal is to place all of the passengers on their poles in order. Each team only has 1 heli and may only carry one passenger at a time. While one passenger is swimming back, the heli may return to behind the gate to grab a different passenger from the team.
Highest Number, In this mode, each of the pilots are designated their own pole, on which they must pack as many passengers as possible. All of the passengers are available for pickup from one big pool behind the fence.
… and more …
Rules
1. No weapons, no cops, no fire dept. Having your Avenger on standby so that you can clear your cops if you need to, by getting into the back cavity is a wise idea.
2. No PvP. Accidents happen, especially with fast spinning blades, tight spaces, people rappelling and crowded airspace, but please try not to cause a mass casualty event.
3. Do not purposely damage another HALPer’s helicopter.
4. Try to park neatly.

3. We will wait at the top of Chiliad for everyone to arrive. Have a chill party, photos, scan each other, etc.
4. Once everyone is ready and all the Terrorbytes are up at the summit, we’ll leave our vehicles at the top of the mountain, and descend as a group in one Terrorbyte to LSIA.
5. Everyone will exit out into the plane, and then we’ll jump out of the aircraft at a specific altitude/location to try and land with our parachutes on top of the vehicles left at the top of Chiliad.
Rules
1. If you miss landing and hit the ground while parachuting, do not call your Sparrow. (blades are a hazard for other jumpers)

HALP Fight Club #1 - Seeding Tournament
Hello HALPers!
Do the rules of HALP forbid you from punching someone in the face whom you think really deserves it? Participate in HALP Fight Club and take out your frustrations, show off your skill, and knock down your fellow HALPers in this non-elimination tournament. To participate in the main event, you must register your name on the tournament roster. By doing so, you are agreeing to participate in BOTH TOURNAMENTS.
KO your opponent, or knock them out of the ring to win your match. Each round will have several matches. The tournament winner is decided by overall points.
Seeding Tournament? WTF Is that?
When you finish this tournament, you will be given a score based on how you performed against other HALPers. This will be used to place (aka seed) you in the Halp Fight Club #2 - Double Elimination Tournament on April 11th. So that means, by registering for this tournament, you are registering for TWO EVENTS. You are making a commitment to show up and face off against your fellow competitors in BOTH. People who no-show after registering will be name-and-shamed.
1. To pre-register and confirm your availability for both events, message @gritz_ in the #halp-events channel and you will be added to the tournament roster.
2. This will be a Swiss-Style Tournament. There will be several matches per round. The order in which matches are played is determined algorithmically.
3. Winners will play mostly against winners, losers against losers. Nobody will face the same opponent twice. This is chosen algorithmically.
4. If you win a fight, you get +1 point. If you lose, you get 0. If both HALPers knock each other out simultaneously, it’s a draw, and both HALPers get +0.5 / +0.5.
5. The number of rounds depends on the number of registrants. Expect 3-5 rounds of X matches, where X is the number of players who register. The player with the most points after all the rounds wins the tournament, and is rewarded with the honour of Top Seed in the Halp Fight Club #2 - Double Elimination Tournament.
7. Unfortunately, stand-ins will not be allowed. If you do not show up at the time of your match after registering, you will forfeit each match you do not attend.
