kinda late..

Pointsman, I'm sorry you find it unfair.. i'm trying to make it fair for as many people as possible. You can't please all of the people all of the time, or even some of the time, so I'm not gonna try to. Shall I put you down for the tourney anyway?

Is your char's name Pointsman?

Niki,

Yeah, i know it's a bit late, but I live in the US, so 0100 GMT on Sunday is actually only 7pm for me. I will be out of town and that is about the earliest i can get back.

Once sign ups are closed and brackets are decided, perhaps we can work out better times for everyone involved, but so far, it doesn't seem to be a huge issue.

-- oh, and sorry for the double post, trying to reply to multiple posts at once...

MFA tournaments were great! I think what you're referencing were the later "Hey there's lots of people on let's have a tourney" ones, not the official ones. Those were really fun and added player content to the game.

Smitty, I'm not saying they were no fun ...

My point is that they were kinda poorly run ...

"Maalik, &c."

2 things about this. first off, what did i say about getting an ingame newspost?if u dont know how to do that, the topic is one a sticky here on the RP forum, just make a post asking whistler to make a newspost entitled "X" that says "X". and dont forget to say please. Secondly, pull me off the list because a) it's not a great time for me, though i WILL be there if possible. and b) i will probably be busy proctoring matches for the time i am there.

PS: in case u didnt kno /me is ute

Sorry, Ute... i'd just assumed you'd be participating, and no, i didn't know how to get an ingame news post, but i will take care of it.

Also, to all contestants/potential contestants, please note that I must have the complete list by the end of the day on Thursday, Dec 6 (I am in Eastern Time zone, so figure out the conversions yourself, i can't be bothered). I will need at least a day to work out the brackets and have them posted by Friday night.

The rules have been edited accordingly.

SIGN UPS ARE NOW CLOSED!

Please note final modifications to rules etc.

Most recent changes are that spectators may observe in unarmed EC-class ships and all duelists will be provided with Ultra Charge cells to use in combat.

Brackets will be posted shortly.

OK, i must admit my web-limitations. I don't know how to post an image file here.

There will be 4 rounds. All that matters for now is the first round, matchups are as follows:

Tobias Greenich & Esandis Prosos

-A.K.A- & Zontic King

Smittens & Waldoze

Zoltan Szabo & Hakashis Sholus

Discostu IX & Drazed

Mick & Maalik, &c.

Mr. Fluffy & Lambin

Rift45 & Thespian

For simplicity's sake, i have removed myself from competition, but i will remain as a standby if there is a duelist who does not show. If there is a second no-show, that persons's partner will automatically proceed to the next bracket.

Good luck everyone, and I will see you all there!

Post any further questions here.

There will be no further rule changes (unless i notice a mistake/omission).

Alright, well i'd call that a qualified success... there were lots of no-shows, but we got enough proxies at the lst minute to fill things out a bit. Special thanks to Kelm and Shaded for joining us at the last minute. Fights went as follows.

Round 1:
Tobias Greenich vs. drazed
drazed killed Tobias Greenich

Kelm vs. Shaded
Kelm killed Shaded

Mick vs. Maalik, &c.
Maalik, &c. killed Mick

Mr. Fluffy vs. Waldoze
Waldoze killed Mr. Fluffy

Round 2:
drazed vs. Kelm
Kelm killed drazed

Maalik, &c. vs. Waldoze
Maalik, &c. killed Waldoze

Final RoundL
Kelm vs. Maalik, &c.
Kelm killed Maalik, &c.

Kelm was the ultimate dueling champion and won the 10M credit prize as well as the bonus prize of 13 Ultra Charge power cells.

Good fights all and hope to see you at the next tournament, 2 weeks from now, beginning on Dec 15.

Feedback, esp from participants would be most appreciated.

For the next tourney i believe we will do best of 3 fights in each round.

New rules will be posted shortly... feel free to sign up here for the next one, please specify in post character name and signing up for 2ND dueling tourney.

Thanks again to all who participated, and hopw to see you at the next one in two weeks!
