May 2016 Archmage Tournament

[DUEL Claire]

The May 2016 Archmage Tournament will be held on Sunday, May 15th at 8:00pm Eastern! The format will most likely be double elimination (depending on entrants), and late entrants have no more than 5 minutes to arrive. Seeding will begin at 8:05pm, and casting will begin at 8:10pm.

Seeding will be based on the most recent RoK rankings. Early registration will cut off on Friday, May 13th at 8:00pm. Any late registrants or walk-ins will automatically be ranked below early registrants. Registrants tied with the same ranking will be seeded by WoL.

Please post your registrations as replies to this thread. Good luck everyone!

((It's worked well, so we will adhere to a 5 minute casting limit each round in order to try and keep the tourney from running too late. Exceeding 5 minutes once will result in a friendly reminder from the caller. Anything after that will result in a mis-cast, meaning no spell was invoked and the opponent's spell scores for maximum damage. After a mis-cast, the duelist is still not allowed to use whatever spell they most recently used. That way the mis-cast does not serve as a type of disengage. In the case anyone needs more than 5 minutes for an urgent/special circumstance, please alert the caller, opponent, and the room so they they know you need a few minute and will return asap. Any questions, you know where to find me. Thanks!))

Since I have been recently removed from an Elemental Tower, I will enter this Tournament.

[Hope]

I'll see you all there.

[Claire Gallows]

Possibly in. If I make it back to town in time.

Good evening Doves!

Tonight I called the Archmage Tournament for a select group of individuals, namely Claire, Eden, Venalia and Xanth. We rolled Round Robin style and after round three, Eden remained undefeated!

Congratulations Eden!

She’ll meet up with Rachael at a future date and time for the challenge. Who will reign supreme? Stay tuned doves!

A parchment was tacked to the corkboard. The message that it contained was written in an exceptionally precise handwriting.

The challenge to determine who will be custodian of the Celestial Tower will be held on Sunday, May 22nd, at 9PM EST.

The honourable Canaan will be presiding over this challenge.

Thank you again for calling, Cane!

And thank you for fighting me Archmage Rachael and giving me back my sunglasses!

I had so much fun and I had blueberry pie afterwards with homemade ice cream! Blueberries are the greatest!
