On the most recent edition of the Britcast I announced that I would be hosting and running a one-on-one tournament in the Citadel for the members. I'm looking to get this running from the 1st July 2016.
The rules are as follows:
- There will be an initial entry fee of 50gp per member. The sum of the fees, plus 600gp from my own funds and GP rewards forfeited by each loser, will make up the prize fund to be split between first (70%), second (20%) and third (10%).
- The initial total pot for the tournament is 1150 GP, rising with each round!
- Entrants' abilities will be locked at the level they enter at, and only one character per user will be allowed (no alts)
- There will be a maximum of twelve contenders and battles will be fought in knockout format.
- The arena for each fight will be set by a judge.
- There will be no posting time limits.
- Each round will last two weeks, with one week for judging. The final round will be a three way brawl!
There has been a slight update to the rules.
After discussions with the admin department on how best to reward the contestants using an unofficial rubric, it has been decided that rewards will work as follows:
- Threads will be judged in accordance with the Osiris Open rubric. Rewards will be issued in accordance with workshop rules for both contestants (i.e EXP and GP rewarded as if each person had scored 65).
- The loser in each battle will have their GP reward instead go towards the final prize fund. This is made up for by the amount of EXP you gain as above, which in most cases will be much more than a loser would normally get.
The Story section of the rubric will be replaced by a special section dedicated to the battle itself; Combat.
Combat will consist of three catagories:
- Strategy: How good were your tactics? How well did you utilise your grey matter to overcome your opponent?
- Resourcefulness: How well did you use your abilities and the components of your arena?
- Execution: Did your chosen approach work? Did you land and take hits? Points here for the ultimate culmination of your efforts, and bonus points for conceding or inflicting an in-character defeat with style.
