I apologize for the bluntness of the description ahead, but I've got much larger things on my mind. You might not see much of me in the near future, so... yeah. Possibility of cancer = way fucking uncool. I'm just going to list off some things for you to take note of, and then I'll leave the rest up to your creativity.

• The tournament takes place in a modern setting (any of you who don't know that by now should be shot), in a very large field. Some of the grass is alive, but most is dead or dying. The area is obviously unkept.
• Vincent, my character, has mowed out a large section of the field. It's rectangular in shape, and the total area is little over half an acre.
• Within this rectangle, Vincent has chalked out a rounded boundary, moreso oval in shape. Any character who walks, gets shoved, or falls out of bounds loses points. (This doesn't affect ACTUAL judging... much. It's moreso for story purposes.)
• On one of the longer sides of the oval, facing east, is a set of hand-crafted bleachers for the spectators. All of the fighters, regardless of wins or losses, will be on the bleachers for this fight. The judges will also be on the bleachers, and perhaps a few random spectators.
• Each fight occurs on a different day, so you don't have to worry about things like time of day or conflicting schedules. What time you choose to fight is up to the first poster.

I leave the rest up to your imaginations. Most importantly, have fun! Just because it's a tournament doesn't mean you can't have a little humor. It's a fight, not a novel. I want to smile when I read it. And trust me... I'm going to need a smile.



edit:
By the way, you deserve to know what I'm looking for from your posts. Extravagant intro posts are wonderful, but consider this for the rest of your thread...

The better writer doesn't win. If you want a true "writing" contest, go set up an RP contest. Here, the writer with the best ideas and creativity wins. The person with the most description doesn't win. Here, the writer with the posts which are easier to follow will triumph.

I'm not saying that your posts should be a paragraph long and be straight to the point. I want some length, and I want some description. I just don't want the overkill that often comes from these tournaments. People run away from the TOA because they think they're judged on novel-writing skills. Well, you're not. Not as long as I'm in charged.

This tournament will focus more on the "B" part of RPB. Use that to your advantage, and have some more creative reign in your posts.
