Summer 2014 Gauntlet (restart - take 2)

Post by Mooncalf »

Okay we had to restart due to an insane bug that has been fixed and tested quite extensively. However, please be aware that there is one additional rule this time. This will be highlighted in red for your convenience.

We will be skipping steps 1-3 as they have already been done.

Stage 1) You post here saying you'd like ONE of your characters to enter. That character must have a gauntlet pass by the time the tournament starts.
Stage 2) If we don't fill up all the spots within a week, I open it up to alts, and you can post again to enter a second of your characters.
Stage 3) We randomly draw the names to create the bouts. The image gets updated.

Stage 4) You fight your bouts at a time convenient to both combatants.
Although the clicker winning bug has been fixed, the first name listed (the top name on the tournament image, out of the two combatants) must always be the initiator of the fight (the one who clicks to spar).. It makes no difference, but it makes sure that there are no arguments. If the fight does not happen after 1 week, the character who hasn't turned up forfeits.
Stage 5) Once the winner is determined, that character is named champion (current champ is Phoenix) and rewarded the grand prize.

This time around the winner will have their choice out of any one of the existing relics in game. I will post a list of all the relics (some you might not be aware of) and what they do, and you can pick one. The winner also receives 50,000 in-game dollars. The runner up is given a prize of 25,000 in-game dollars, and all quarter-finalists also receive 10,000 in-game dollars.

Oh and a side note: we decided not to stop killing blows in the gauntlet. The descriptions are already inaccurate, as nobody is wounded, so it seemed pointless. As such, killing blows count. In RP terms you can simply think of them as knockout blows if you like, or an attack which guarantees victory at any rate.

That's not what he was saying. He was saying the one in the top box on the listing graphic is the one who is to click the spar button.

I had to read it three or four times myself to try and work out what he meant. lol
