November Archmage Tournament

Neo Eternity · Post by **Neo Eternity** » Fri Nov 11, 2011 2:10 pm

Hello, patrons of the Duel of Magic!

We're nearing the end of the cycle, and you know what that means: it's time for the next Archmage Tournament! A double-elimination tournament will take place on November 23, at 9 PM RST. All Magi are invited to enter, and everyone is invited to watch. An official will be needed for this tournament.

The winner of the tournament will challenge Shadow for the title of Archmage and the Citadel of Stars! Seeding will be done according to the cycle rankings, as always. There is a limit of eight entrants, so get your pre-registrations in! A ten minute grace period will be given for pre-registrants who haven't yet arrived. Walk-ins are permitted, but they'll be seeded automatically at the bottom.

Post your pre-registrations as replies to this thread. Good luck and have fun, everyone!

Sign me up to make it 4.

I heard Kalinda, Sivanna, Harris and Xanth also wanted to pummel Shadow. I don't think Tass has a pass to get out of the old folks' home, so I don't know if he'll make it.

Aww, Lem, you're making me feel special.

Wait, then how'd you get out?

Because I'm in charge of that place. The inmates have taken over the asylum!

And so, the Archmage Challenge happened! I was a little late to the party, but with an abridged intro, we were off!

The first duel started out pretty even, with Misty taking the initial lead, but Shadow tying it up with a good focused reflection. Misty was able to poke back ahead afterward, but Shadow crept back up and took the lead, running with it from there all the way to the end, allowing Misty only one more point. The first duel ended 5.5 to 3.5 in 9 rounds!

The second duel saw Shadow coming out with the initial lead this time, leaving Misty to play catch-up. She did indeed play an admirable game of catch-up, though. She was never able to tie it up, but she frequently kept it within a half point, all the way to the last round where Shadow dealt the final blow. The final score of this duel was 5 to 3.5 in 7 fournds!

Shadow remains the Archmage of the Duel of Magic! Well defended, Shadow, and well tried, Misty!
