Just so I've actually said this, I don't plan on doing this with a whole lot of pomp and/or circumstance. Most of the time extra threads for "down-time" go unused and flavor text, while nice, isn't really necessary in a situation like this. It's a tournament. There's a ring, a bunch of on-lookers, and an announcer.
In terms of IC, the rules are the same as they always are. You win with either a knock-out, ring-out, or submission and killing is very much frowned upon. No time-limits and no restrictions on weapons or ki-use or anything like that.
For determining winners, I will be looking at writing as well as stats and CA. However, given how close everyone's CA is, most of the judgment will be based on writing.
Official rules for the tournament are as follows:
Two posts each
Opening poster will be determined by me and announced in the OP
48-hours allowed between posts
24 grace-period between rounds
300 word minimum, obviously
No word-count max, but be reasonable, please
If your name is first in the title of the thread, you start

I'd be a judge.

Does honesty earn respect or inspire revenge? Is it smarter to attack the strong or annihilate the weak?

I was planning on just doing it myself (eight people is only seven fights) but I wouldn't turn down help.

Since I'm stuck in Heaven, I'd be happy to lend my criticism skills.

Same here, if you need a judge or something.
EDIT: I, uh, should read more posts. Still, I'll lend you a hand if you need it.

I'm in. Going to finish up the job quest tonight. Can you give the city name? Are Hibiki and Kaden participants?

I wasn't planning on being in it. Don't know what Belle's planned, but I imagine he's in the same boat.
We'll say it's taking place in South City.
That's four people. There are still four more spots open.

I wasn't really planning on it. As Sage has pointed out, I've been on the quest to get the Dragonballs for a while now thanks to a number of setbacks. I'm gonna try to stick to acquiring them for now.
