[OOC] RPGuild Ranked Tournament

[Rilla]

Next tourney is likely a month away. XD
I think the schedule calls for the next tournament to be sgarting in September.

My dad had to go into the ER and I've had to return home unexpectedly to assist with matters on the farm while he recovers. In conjunction, my grandfather is also in the hospital with pneumonia, so I've been under an extreme amount of stress.

The tournament can continue for those wishing to as a private or continued ranked event in which it can be chosen to be honored by the Ranking HQ or I shall offer some kind of personal reward myself (graphics or something) as an alternative if it is decided not too. However, given some of the posts on this, I'd like to confirm the interest of those still left in continuing.

[MelonHead]

My fight is unresolved and I'd rather not take up your time when it seems like you have enough going on, so you can consider myself resigned.

@MelonHead

Tuuj actually withdrew, so we'd just be waiting on the Altered match.

[AlteredTundra]

Oh, sorry. I'm a bit busy to keep up with this tourney, so I resign from the tourney as well.

@Vordak

@Vordak

@Altered Tundra

:( That was my favorite fight to read. I am much sad.

I can start Round 2 tomorrow if people are still interested. I have the map already done. However, I'm in the airport at the moment.

[Rilla]

First round matches, who won them? Do the matches where both dropped out get draws?

@Rilla

Either that or scratch them completely, my fight never had even one confirmed combat because the first attack was blocked and the return was controversial and never got a ruling in the end. I'd rather just not have it registered as a fight tbh.

[Innue]

Front page is up to date on fights. The ones that had people withdraw won't really count, I don't think.

[Rilla]

Round 1:
Dynamo vs SgtEasy
Important vs Bart*
Thar vs LeeRoy
Altered vs Vordak
Melon vs Tuuj

*Pending other matches outcomes

So, who gets what points here? Barti and IN got the Draw nod

@Rilla

Not sure how you want to handle draws in terms of arena points. For the match, neither will proceed unless someone doesn't participate in the second round.

Melon and Tuuj didn't actually go to blows. Vordak would be the only one getting points I think, since I believe SgtEasy won via timing out. Since Thar actually lost, I may have Important proceed to the second round instead. I had done a dice roll to decide that.

[Rilla]

50 pointd for draws.

I'll have to take 100 from Easy on the paper version, since it wasn't a situation where they engaged.

points for Vordak tho.

[Innue]

I will do the round 2 matchups this afternoon. I have to help for a few things on the farm. Then I'll post map 2 and the semis will begin. Yay.

[ImportantNobody]

@Innue

I'm fine either way.

[Rilla]

what's the time and post limit for round 2?

[Innue]

what's the time and post limit for round 2?

@Rilla

Up to 48 hours (unless prior approval is given) for a total of 3 times. Otherwise 24 hours.

[Rilla]

How long for the round?

[Innue]

How long for the round?

@Rilla

10 days duration for the next round. Finals will then take place over a final 10 more days.

Important vs SgtEasy

The next round will take place in a new arena. I apparently have the map on the Surface and not my laptop (and it apparently didn't backup to my online storage), so here is the description...

The arena is a series of infinitely expanding rings among a center circle. The center circle measures 40 feet in diameter. On the east and west of this circle are two staircases leading up to the next level ring, which is raised 10 feet up from the center circle and measures about 15 feet across from inside edge to the outer edge. On the north and south of this ring, there are stairs leading up to the next level. This continues forever with the stairs alternating a north/south configuration and an east/west configuration.

Every ring has a retaining wall along it which comprises part of the 10 feet in different from the previous level's height. All of the arena is made of dirt/stone. There are trees on each side of the staircases on every level which are 18 feet tall. Torches are scattered along the outer walls of each level.

It should be noted that the outer walls are not perfectly smooth and can be scaled fairly quickly in some parts.

The further you are and the longer you stay off the ground in this arena will increase the effects of gravity on you.

:)

[MelonHead]

How do the staircases work on what I'm assuming is an infinite tower of circles? Are they a simple straight flight up with an opening in the above circle?

@Innue

Innue, you're brutal. I know you have to wrap this up before the next tournament, but putting me and Melon in a map with absolutely minimal cover and zero options for stealth puts me in a world of trouble. XD
