Eldrian read through the announcements, the servers having been frozen while the developers now did the last bit of tweaks necessary for the tournament to start. It felt really weird to not be able to go online, Eldrian having become extremely used to his routine.
The announcements focused on how players had to go about signing up, how the virtual homes worked, and how the tournament would actually work.
In essence, the virtual homes would be similar to that which players entered upon first using a headset, a floating room in the abyss of space. From there they could decide what they wanted their 'home' to look like. They were given a total of one hectare of land(100x100m), which they could make a garden, house, forest, or whatever they wanted.
