Adult Dueling Tournament
Spring brings with it the earliest whiffs of society—and what better way to celebrate than with a duealing tournament? The tournament will take place IC on Saturday, April 27th and Sunday, April 28th. The entry fee is 2s which may be cost prohibitive for some people, however the winner of the tournament will take home half the total entry fees (and a BIG TROPHY), with the runner-up taking home a quarter! The remaining quarter is donated to the Hogwarts First Year Scholarship.
All participants have an opportunity to earn some stamps! In addition to the Dueling '94 stamp—

—duel participation in general can help you earn these pretties—check out the stamps page for details:
- All proper decorum must be observed, including bowing or curtsying to ones opponent at the open and close of the match.
- During a duel, there shall be no physical contact of any sort between contestants. Should one contestant require assistance, then the match will be stopped by the official.
- Excessive force must not be used. The purpose of the contest is to display strength and skill; it is not to injure or maim. Likewise, all spells used must be allowed under the law.
- Creativity is encouraged; a match that consists merely of stunning and disarming is not enjoyable for the audience.
- Matches will be moderated by a member of the staff. Follow instructions by the IC moderator regarding who is to post. After both participants have posted once, wait for the moderator to post again before continuing.
- Points will be given by the moderator based on an OOC modified dice roll. While commentary by the official is IC, the scoring is done in the fairest way possible.
- Do not state how your action will end, but rather what is intended. That way, when the point is determined then you can post the results of your actions in a way that fits with the scoring.
- If a participant does not post within two days [48 hours], they will be disqualified and the other participant wins the match.
- Keep all spells age appropriate. A first year could not cast an Unforgivable (although that would get them disqualified anyway). If you are not sure if your character could cast a spell at their age, feel free to ask other members or the staff for opinions.
Assuming your character wants to enter, please post the appropriate form(s) below on or before April 13th! No more than six duelists per player, please!
