One night only! Sunday, June 28th at 9:00 PM by the Eastern Clock, the Duel of Magic welcomes spellcasters of all abilities for the Summer All Ranks Tournament! Come out and fight at Wizard ranking for a chance to win one of several prizes. As usual, there will be plenty of spell slinging, food, and other shenanigans. Rhy'Din's Governor, Ebon Ilnaren, has even offered to include the All Rank Tournament in Rhy'Din's Midsummer Festival activities. As such, it will be held in the Marketplace (RDI).
You're totally interested more in the food and festivities than the prizes, I'm sure, but here's what we've got in store:
First off, all entrants who pre-register before 8:30 PM on Saturday the 27th and show up by 8:55 PM on the night of the tournament will receive 1 win right off the bat. Please make sure before you sign up that you have at least one regulation duel logged since week one of the previous cycle. Anyways. Top performers have a shot at taking home even more! Don’t place in the top 6? That’s okay! Everyone takes home their wins tonight. Not just WoLs, WINS!
First place: 5 Wins (or the number of Wins you rack up through the tournament, whichever is greater) plus your choice of one of the below prizes.
Second Place: Earned Wins (Max 4) plus your choice of one of the below prizes.
Third Place: Earned Wins (Max 3) plus your choice of one of the below prizes.
Fourth Place: Earned Wins (Max 2) plus your choice of one of the below prizes
Fifth & Six Place: Take your pick of the remaining prizes.
PRIZE POOL!

-Ring of Living Flame: Contains the essence of living fire, able to be controlled and changed to suit the bearer. Need a minion? Done. Need a new outfit? Easy. Grants the wearer fire resistance.
-Red Dragon’s Egg
-Mystery Box! What's in it? Well, you'll have to open it to find out huh.
[[OOC Info:
All entrants must have 1 activity duel within past 2 cycles (since Week One of previous cycle, March 8th-March 14th).
Format will be single elimination.
Seeding will be based first on RoK Rankings, followed by sign up or walk in time for those that don't pre-register. Fire gems must be used by the end of the next cycle or they will become inventory icons.
It's worked well, so we will adhere to a 5 minute casting limit each round in order to try and keep the tourney from running too late. Exceeding 5 minutes once will result in a friendly reminder from the caller. Anything after that will result in a mis-cast, meaning no spell was invoked and the opponent's spell scores for maximum damage. After a mis-cast, the duelist is still not allowed to use whatever spell they most recently used. That way the mis-cast does not serve as a type of disengage. In the case anyone needs more than 5 minutes for an urgent/special circumstance, please alert the caller, opponent, and the room so they they know you need a few minute and will return asap. ]]
