Tournament - Round 3 - Three for alls.

[Aex]

Okay. So, after a small period of wait, the results from the second round are in. A big hand to our new judge, Zanza, and our emergency judge, Terrin. Winners from round two:

Ranarath
Southern Belle
Hyrulian Hero
Insaney
LadyElvenarcher
Lunchbox
Power Shot
Fireball
Selah

So, this round will basically be three free for alls, each consisting of three contestants. Now, without revealing too much, I need to tell you all to remember that the individual who does the best in this round will have a great advantage in the next round. With that in mind, there will be one person moving on from each battle.

Now, as usual, there was a random draw to determine who would face who. So, if you moved on, find yourself in this list:

Ranarath vs. LadyElvenarcher vs. Fireball
Insaney vs. Hyrulian Hero vs. Selah
Lunchbox vs. Power Shot vs. Southern Belle

So, just like last time, it's obvious that whoever posts first will have an advantage. But the person to post last will also have an advantage over the two that came before him/her.

However, unlike last time, it's up to the first poster to name their thread, keeping in mind not to use their name or the names of their combatants. just a title this time, please.

Anyway, we'll see if we can actually wrap this up in two weeks.

Begin!

[Power Shot]

First post! Woo!

*begins to diss everyone, then stops himself*

Congrates to everyone else who advanced. Man, I can't wait to fight my own student! My fight is full of my fellow Farore members.

[Lunch Box]

Farorian vs. Farorian vs. Farorian
Texan vs. Texan vs. Texan
Student vs. Teacher vs. Friend

Wow. O.o. PS, prepare to be pwned!

Also, how does the scoring system work? Will two move on? One?

[Aex]

Snap snap, kiddies.

A day's gone by and I see no progress. There most likely won't be an extension this time around, so get moving.

*grins* You're welcome.

[Silver]

I knew PS would win!

[Lunch Box]

MY QUESTION STILL HASN'T BEEN ANSWERED! How many go on to the finals or whatever?

[Halcyon Hero]

Its in the first post. One from each. Which leads me to believe that Round Four will be one vs. one vs. one.

[fireball]

I have no idea how to use the location in my battle to my characters advantage. Must some research on ancient temples. Its good both my opponents have already posted so I look forward to actually having to earn a place in the next round rather then the hollow victory of round two.

*grins* Sileya will have plenty of advantage in this setting. Just wait for my next post. Heehee.

[Lunch Box]

HH, you're probaly right, unless two possibilities occur:
1. One gets a By. Possibility: ,01%
2. Wild Card: Possibility: 70%

[Ranarath]

Hey, I've got a question. Is there a limited number of posts per person, like the 5 post limit in the first round, or do we just go until the two weeks or whenever we feel it's done?

You can keep going.

[fireball]

Waiting, waiting, waiting! Maybe Ranarth stumped LadyElvenarcher. Oh well I'll give it a bit more time before I consider posting out of the established order. Its still better than last round.

[LadyElvenarcher]

Actually, I think they've decided to close the tournament now. That's why I'm not posting.

That's dumb.

[Power Shot]

Nope, actually rather smart. Considering the fact that a bad post can damage a rating, and if a person feels confident in their previous posts, it's a good strategy.

I hope the new round starts soon. I am eager to see who I lost to.

[Duke of Clubs]

Oh. LEA said close the -tournament-. *Confuzzled by the helawhack shiznit inside the brizzle*

[fireball]

Right, I'll just focus my atttention on anticpating the outcome of this round. Not like I knew how I was going to top my last post anyway.

[Lunch Box]

Power Shot, who you lost to? Bah. I'm waiting to see how bad you beat me.

The judges are probably lapping up your "Valkhyn suicide attempt" posts like honey. People like the deep, emotional stuff.

[Lunch Box]

Never thought about that....still I believe PS won.

As far as I'm aware, two thirds of the judges haven't started reading yet. =/

Edit: Nevermind. Make that one third.
