February All-Ranks Tournament

Hello, Duel of Magic patrons!

It's time for the All-Ranks Tournament! It will take place on Wednesday, February 16th*, at 9:00 PM RST. Late entries will have until 9:15 to arrive, and the tournament will then start. Sai will be officiating. As always, the entire advanced tier will be available to all duelists regardless of rank, but mage spells and furies will not be permitted.

All wins earned in thhe tournament will be added to your career standings! In addition, the first place winner will receive 2000 nobles and a guaranteed rank increase, the second place winner 1000 nobles, and the third place winner 500 nobles! The tournament format will be decided depending on participation, but double elimination will likely be used. Seeding will be done according to the cycle rankings, with late entries automatically seeded at the bottom to prevent holding up the start of the tournament.

In addition! Since Xanth left his tower to become Archmage, and Harris left his tower to oust him, both the Tower of Air and Tower of Earth are up for grabs! The same rules apply as the previous times; in order to accept a tower, you must give up the wins earned in the tournament. The winner will have first pick, then second place, then third place, and so on. Any Apprentice who becomes a Keeper this way will have until the next ART to reach Enchanter.

Post your pre-registrations as replies to this thread, and keep an eye on it for additional news. Good luck, everyone!

*I know this is shorter notice than usual, so I'm not at all opposed to pushing this back one week. If anyone wants to do that, just post a reply saying so, and if there's enough desire, we'll push this back to February 23. The 18th and 20th are not options due to the Opal challenges.

I'll be there. Will be running a few minutes late most likely, but I'll be there.

Oh my gosh, there was a tournament! I was there! I saw it! And it was pretty sweet! Unfortunately, we did have two withdraws right after the first round, but despite that, it all went smoothly. So here's a shiny bracket to show you how it all went down!

Congratulations to Rachael Wynter, winner of the All-Ranks Tournament! She chose to exchange her wins for the Tower of Air, and is now its new Keeper! Vincent chose to exchange his wins for the Tower of Earth.

Thanks to everyone who participated and spectated!
