Crown Tournament Begins
The tournament to select the heirs of Their Royal Majesties Donovan and Meghanta has begun. The Field Guide can be found here
The format is as follows:
1) Round Robin: Two pools. Bring your best, single pass, refight doubles until clean. If necessary, ties will be resolved first by comparing who beat who in the pool, with fight-offs as needed.
2) Sweet 16: Double elimination tree. Bring your best, single pass, refight doubles until clean.
3) Semi-finals: Winner’s list vs loser’s list. Winner needs one victory to advance to the finals, loser needs two. Bring your best.
4) Finals. These will be best 4 of 7. The first pass will be greatsword, subsequent passes will be rotating non-repeating weapon forms. The loser of the previous pass chooses the form for the next pass.
If the combatants reach a 3-3 tie, the combatants will each bring their best form for the final pass.
