January 2017 Archmage Tournament

Post by DUEL Specter »

The January 2017 Archmage Tournament will be held on Sunday, January 22nd 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, January 20th 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!))

Keep a spot open for me. This old man feels the need to remind you kids how it's done.

I probably dueled, I'll probably get reinstated, and I'll probably show up. Probably.

Eden and I will execute this challenge on Saturday, January 28th at 9 pm (EST).

I have successfully bribed the Keeper of Fire with enough chicken nuggets to call this challenge.

It's the kind from King Burger and NOT WcDonalds. If it had been the latter then there would have been hell to pay.

With the Protests in the City, struggles John had with his family, and the search for just what the heck was the meaning of Qui Qui, John had kept the intended legacy of his reign to a single night early in the cycle. The weeks of the term of his reign were not dotted with various uniquely created rings for duelists to fight and enjoy, but he was going to ensure that which could end up being his last fight as Archmage would be in a ‘special’ ring. Ultimately he was hoping for Eden to have as much fun as possible (along with himself) to remove the weighted stress on his shoulders, even if it was just for an hour or two.

Upon arrival to the Isle on Saturday night, goblins would greet visitors with white tee shirts or smocks. There would be baskets of paint supplies both within the seating areas and surrounding the ring created for the main event tonight. The ring initially may just look like a stark white canvas waiting to be spattered with paint from the evening’s opponents, but it was also an in-ground trampoline. Because arming both Eden and John with paint supplies for a color fight simply wasn’t enough you know.

Before the night was over, John excepted to be doused with quite a bit of pink.

In addition to the paint supplies on hand for the night, (and because John was rarely seen without a drink in his hand), a few colorful drinks would be on the menu for the evening.

And an assortment of frozen drinks of all shades! Made with Rum or Tequila at request!

AND THE CHALLENGE IS OVER! Eden's no longer a bridesmaid as she bests John in two straight duels to become the newest Archmage of the Duels of Magic! The end results were 5-3 in 5 and 5-3 in 7.

As a former Archmage myself, I TOTALLY WELCOME YOU TO THE EXCLUSIVE CLUB!
