WMAT

[Aqua]

OOC Rules:

-If you fail to post within 48 hours of your opponents last post, you are eliminated.
---a. If this happens, the victor is allowed to write out the rest of the fight as he/ she sees fit.
---b. The only way to bypass this rule is to request an extension from your opponent AND from one of the judges (Aqua, Kirano, Gokua).
------i. in order to get an extension, you must post your reply in the WMAT discussion thread. In this request, you MUST specify a time considered to be the latest you can reply because of certain circumstances. Your opponent does NOT have to agree to the extension, though we encourage you all to please show each other the same respect you'd want others to show you.

-If you are caught god-modding or meta gaming, you will receive ONE warning. if you persist, you are eliminated, and your opponent may write out the end of the fight as they see fit.

-Excluding the qualifying rounds (which have no time limit, and will only end when there is just one contestant left standing), all fights will have an IC and OOC time limit. Most fights will be 5 IC rounds that last for 5 IC minutes. Each IC round equals one post per fighter.
---a. Both the fighters can agree to have their fight last less than 5 rounds, but no fewer than 2 rounds.
---b. When in a fight, your posts may NOT exceed 1,000 words!

-For fights that are decided by the judges, consideration and voting will be conducted via private messages and aim, and then the results will be posted in the form of an RP by one or more of the judges.

-If you are not in a fight, you may RP yourself observing the fight (there is no minimum or maximum amount you can type in this instance). If you can come up with a way to interfere without getting the other person or yourself disqualified... go for it. Just make sure you aren't fluid timing (if you're scheduled to be in a fight, you can't also be watching someone else's fight at the same time).

-Continue using the pre-WMAT jitters thread for pre/post fight interaction between yourself and other characters.

EDIT: And I've posted the qualifying round RP, so everyone needs to jump on it!

I'm giving everyone till next Sunday to finish this round, so there shouldn't be any excuse to not get it done. If we get done sooner, we'll move on.

IC Rules:

[[[-Killing an opponent leads to an automatic disqualification.

-Knocking an opponent unconscious or forcing them to tap-out results in that opponent's loss and subsequent removal from the tournament.

-There will be no loser's bracket, so this tournament is single elimination. In other words, once you lose, you are out of the tournament until next year.

-Fights that do not end in a knock-out or tap-out will go to the judges at the end of regulation time. There are three judges, and majority vote wins.

-All moves and techniques are allowed, no artifacts are. This means that, aside from clothing, armor, shoes, etc., fighters cannot bring anything else with them into the fight. If a contestant can materialize objects, then that is permissible.

-Interference in any fight of which you are not a part results in immediate disqualification. Similarly, compliance with illegal interference will also result in immediate disqualification.]]]

I've kicked off the first round.

Gokua or Kirano could really help me out if they each decide to type out the NPC fights using their own imagination. If not, I'll fill in the blanks in the next round.

The arctic fighting grounds is an arena of about 100 square meters comprised entirely of Ice, floating in the Arctic Ocean. As in the last round, statis field grenades will be containing the arena. There will be no temperature management, so those who have to fight here will have to face nature head on. The actual ring will look very similar to what the tournament arena rings looked like in the show.

The rocky shore is also about 100 square meters, but there is no ring surface. It is open terrain, entirely comprised of jagged, rocky, shoreline. As in the last round, statis field grenades will be containing the arena.

The Main arena looks exactly like that of the show's WMAT arenas, only with a seating capacity of hundreds of thousands. As in the last round, statis field grenades will be containing the arena.

I'm not going to over define the areas because you guys did an AWESOME job using your own creativity in that regard in the prelims. Also, there aren't any cameras in the ring this time.
