March 2017 Archmage Tournament

[DUEL Specter]

The March 2017 Archmage Tournament will be held on Sunday, March 26th at 8:00pm Eastern! The format will most likely be double elimination (depending on entrants), and late entrants have no more than 5 minutes to arrive. Seeding will begin at 8:05pm, and casting will begin at 8:10pm.

Seeding will be based on the most recent RoK rankings. Early registration will cut off on Friday, March 24th at 8:00pm. Any late registrants or walk-ins will automatically be ranked below early registrants. Registrants tied with the same ranking will be seeded by WoL.

Please post your registrations as replies to this thread. Good luck everyone!

((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. Any questions, you know where to find me. Thanks!))

Claire and John fought in a best of two out of three match where John claimed the right to challenge Eden for the title of Archmage! The ending score were 5-4 in 7 for the first and 5.5-3 in 5 in the second. Congratulations John and well tried Claire!

Please look forward to details on the upcoming Archmage challenge.

We'll be doing this ArchMage Challenge REDUX drinking game-style (WOOOOO!) and everyone is welcome to play! Rules to follow in this thread!

THE DRINKING GAME

Take a sip if…

• A Goblin brings Eden a cherry coke
  John arrives with a drink already in his hand and/or drunk
  Jesse calls dibs on potential dead bodies
  Someone trips, gets dizzy, or gets nauseous coming through the portal
  Eden hits John with some pink snowballs (Arctic Blast!)
  John hits Eden with the creeps (Fear Touch!)
  Either duelist goes running for cover (Shield/Armor/Displacement)
  Eden giggles
  John tries not to smile

Take two sips if…

• John and Eden try to blow each other across the ring (MB/MB)
  One of the duelers tries to smoke the other out (Focus Foul Fog!)
  There’s a successful star shower! (Meteor Shower)
  Someone finds a chink in the armor (failed AR)

A shot if…

• John and Eden bring out the big guns at the same time (Nether Ray or Immolation)
  Things get spooky! (GF/GF)
  The challenge goes to three fights!

Bonus---Pick a Duelist

• Take a shot for every successful focused move
  Take a shot for every successful Mage Spell
  A shot for each match they win

Have an idea for a rule? ADD YOUR OWN!

...Should I have emergency medical crews on standby? I'm seeing some alcohol poisoning in the near future for people...

After lots, and lots, and.. LOTS of drinking -- we have a new and returning Archmage.

It's a wonder how the both of them were even standing after everything was said and done, but it's John who nabs the key to the Celestial Citadel after two out of three amazing wins! Lovely reign, Eden! And good win, John!

Match 1 - 5-3.5 in 8, Eden's win.
Match 2 - 5-2.5 in 7, John's win.
Match 3 - 6-4 in 8, John's win.
