So with the arena now under construction, it's probably about time I put up sign-ups for the rest of the tournament events. XD

There'll be four competitive events throughout the week in-between the one-on-one matches. The competitive events are purely tests of skill and will be followed by opportunities for attendees to try out the skill challenges themselves non-competitively as well as receive some basic instruction and tips if they'd like. The four skill events are "Accuracy", "Reflexes", "Agility", and "Strength". I'll have descriptions for the events in the top-levels below, and if you have any further questions about them just ask!

At present the plan is to have alternating days of skill competitions and matches so that those fighting in the 1v1s have a chance to rest up in between fights or compete elsewhere, and nobody has to pick and choose what events they want to participate in. Your character is absolutely welcome and encouraged to sign-up for more than one event should they wish to!

I'll be posting the finalized tournament schedule on Friday once I know how many people are signed up where. The brackets for the 1v1 fights will be decided by an RNG and then Muns can plot between themselves who will win and move on to the next round. If the muns can't decide or need help choosing, I can RNG the winner by request. At present we have 8 people signed up for the 1v1s (listed below). If we end up with an odd number I will likely throw Yang in to even it out or ask some friends if they don't mind throwing their characters in and hand-waving matches or something but I'll cross that bridge when I get there. XD Regardless, sign-ups for the singles matches will close on Thursday the 21st at 11:59 PM PST.

Similarly sign-ups for the skill competitions will also close on Thursday the 21st at 11:59 PST. Winners for the skill competitions will be chosen by RNG but please feel free to play out your character's participation or interacting with the other competitors! There'll be medals given out IC-ly for First, Second, and Third, and probably some additional prizes like gift certificates to local businesses.

Lastly, I've made a poll with regards to the Waverly Bay Colosseum that's been built for this event. Since it's a particularly big structure and is stationed visibly off-shore of the beach, Temple, and town, I thought it might be a good idea to put it to a vote whether it should remain up after the tournament is over and maybe used for general combat practice and the like or if it should be dismantled for the now, possibly to be brought back the next time a tournament is held. All answers will be anonymous and if you'd rather not use the poll at all I've included the option to give input via comment or PM.
