Further instructions will be posted as necessary here, and also mailed as a receipt of received admission fees.
There will be sign ups the day of the event, but will be at the full 1s per level rate.
Rules of Engagement: All participants will be involved in double elimination tournament style competition. You will start on opposite sides of the circle, and once the duel commences, anything you do inside of the circle is fair game. Once you step outside of the dueling arena, you are disqualified. Fights are to the death.
Specifics will be outlined the day of the event, and for ease of communication there will be a specific chat channel for the event.
Goal: We are here to promote community, and have a great time in the process. We also wish to celebrate our true champions of battle, and elevate them with our praise. Let their names be remembered, and feared by their foes. The land will run red with the blood of the fallen!
