You must do your searching alone. As much as possible, dont ask staff. And yeah, search engines are discouraged.

The TR1V1A Stats​


Out of the 29 promised tributes who asked to sign up, only 23 gave their answers, and only 1 did not sign up on the thread.

Out of those 23, 7 of them are Crystal Supporters, 2 of them are Gold Supporters, 3 of them are Silver Supporters, 1 of them is a PC Moderator, 1 of them is a Battle Server Staff, and 1 of them is banned.

From those 23 tributes, only 6 of them passed the 25 mark, which means they got over half of the overall points.
