The Golden Apple Grab Tournament!

Post by DUEL Harris »

ATTENTION ALL GLASS, JADE, AND RUBY RANKED FIGHTERS! A NEW TOURNAMENT HAS ARRIVED!

Start Date: Friday, August 15th
End Date: Wednesday, August 20th

Rules: This tournament is limited to those at the rank of Glass, Jade, or Ruby (as of the 8/14 standings) and will run during regulation dueling hours from Friday, August 15th up through Wednesday, August 20th. Every victory logged will score points. Bonus points are available if certain stipulations are met. Leaderboards will be updated daily. The top three duelists at the end of the week will be awarded one of the prizes listed below! If the tournament victor achieves the Sapphire rank during the week they will not be eligible for the top prize and will instead receive one of the lesser prizes.

Sounds like fun, and I'm always hungry for snacks. Golden cookie would be better but I'll take the apple if nothing else is available.

One question about the rules, just to verify. The 3 points for beating someone of rank Glass/Jade/Ruby is regardless of whether or not that other person has entered the tournament, correct?
