Firs' an' foremos', congradulations ta all who participated! T'was a gran' Tourney, an' ye all di' well!

Now ta the real news; THE WINNERS!

Undefeated through the entire Tourney, the OverBorg took first place. He/it distained the "trinkets" as a prize, an' chooses ta face Dalamar in Challenge. Be watchin' fer i' folks, as I don' thin' he'll was'e time issuin'.

Secon' up was Morgan le Fay du Cornwall, who, naming her wish to honor so manna o' the previous holders, claimed the 5th Rin' as her prize an' declared herself Loyal to the O'erlor'.

Sir Magnus came in third, an' selected the 13th Rin' fer his own, declarin' himself Renegade.

Fourth an' final was Gimzak Stonecutter. The dwarf declared himself Loyal to Dalamar upon acceptance o' the 11th Rin'.

Congradulations ta all our winners!

My warmest congratulations to the winners of the Tournament. 'Twas a pleasure and an honor to be a part of this grand event.

To the new Barons~~~ Wear your rings well, with Honor and Respect for the position of Baron, and for others, above all else.

To the OverBorg~~~ I can't say I'm thrilled at the prospect of your assimilating Dalamar, so I won't wish you luck. I will, however, wish you Honor in the rings. 'Tis a challenge I won't want to miss...........

::Reads over the posts and smiles::

It was a great tourney! Congratulations to Borg, Morgan ::Smiles seeing a lady in the ranks::, Maxim, and lastly my friend Gimm.

Borg, you did well by your skills. I wish you the best in your challenge against Overlord Dalamar Ar' Daumon.

Baroness Morgan le Fay, excellent dueling M'lady. May you wear the 5th Baronial Ring with honor and grace befitting a true lady. May your reign as Baroness be long and fruitful.

Baron Maxim, I respect your win, but hold great reserve in your ability to stand as Baron of the 13th. Time will tell... I wish you well in your endeavors M'lord.

Baron Gimmzak, I'm proud of you! I know you wear the 11th Baronial Ring with honor and sincerity. May you wear it long and defend it well.

To the 4 victors of the Warlord Tourney,

Borg,

Well done. You fought superbly through out the tournament. The last match with Morgan was especially well fought by both parties. I congratulate you. I wish you honor and fortune in your match with Dalamar. However, I can honestly tell you that in this particular case, all politics aside, I think I will be cheering for Dalamar. Go figure, eh folks?

Morgan,

Well done. I am very glad that, if I had to be eliminated from the Tourney, at least the opponent who eliminated me went on to capture a prize. I would rather you had won it all, so I could brag about being defeated by the winner, but I am very glad that you did well. Though I cannot agree with your choice of alignment, who am I to agree or disagree? You should be an honor to the Baronial Council, all alignment aside.

Sir Magnus,

Well done. You managed to achieve a notable success, and you managed to keep things polite and concise when you declared your alignment. It is good to see another Renegade in the ranks of the Barons. It remains to be seen if you can wear the ring as honorably as you won it. I believe you can, and wish you the best. Please, however, do not disappoint me. Never let your personal feelings get in the way of good, honest, clean sportsmanship.

Gimmzak,

Well done. From what I have seen of you, I believe you to be a good and honest individual. Wear your ring well, and continue to demonstrate the qualities I have seen in you. You should do honor to the entire community during your reign as a Baron, and I know you can.

:: Finding a board to post on, compulsively scribbles ::

T'was the first time mine eyes have seen a challenge match. They may never recover from the sight o' it. All the participants displayed so much skill, mine own expectations are truly shaken.

My congradulations and admiration to you all.

Gimmie!..long way from the Brotherhood a chara. Who'd a thought it?::thumbing up with a smile::

I had a feeling an unknown would rise up and get in the tourney to take the Intercession Free Challenge. My money this will be Dalamar's last challenge match as Overlord, and he will be assimilated by the OverBorg.

Let the assimilation begin.

I would like to congratulate everyone who earned a prize, and took part in the tourney.

But I have an issue here. An issue about people who remain warlords but never duel. I'm not intending to insult anyone, don't get me wrong, but these are my feelings. There are people who take an active role in the sport, duel every week, and then lose to someone in the tourney who is never seen.
"I never had time though to duel on an official day" seems like a fair reason, but the person managed to make time of two nights in a tourney; why can't they make time one or two dueling nights a week (or even a month) to duel a little? I don't like seeing people who take an active part of the sport lose a chance to gain a high rank to someone who isn't seen.
I understand some may be in it for the glory, intensity, or for fun. I still think if the dueling is so fun or glorifying in a tourney, why it isn't equally fun or glorifying when winning an official duel.
I am in the arena many nights. Others are in the arena many nights. I am sure there were a few in the tourney who haven't been seen in the arena for a while. I'm a believer that barons should be responsible and be able to set an example (while yes, like Percival said, all should. However, I feel that when you hold a ring which you fought for, you should don it honorably and not be irresponsible). How can the title of baron or overlord be
an example if the one with the rank is never seen or heard of? That's just my opinion.



Simply,

Var,

I see that you direct that statement at me, because i hadn't dueled in a while, and am now the Baron you speak of. Is a man not intitled to take a break? Now that I am Baron, i inteand to stay in Rhydin more, and duel more.

::the penquin waddles through the carnage of the Annex, where the boards had to have been moved to, dodging flailing limbs and scrambling bodies.. some of them in fear of the malevolant crayola-blue antarctic bird, others just flailing and scrambling because, well, Dueling is full of idiots and they're acting the part::

::with a pudgy, fuzzy flipper, the penquin rustles through the postings, clucking his beak dissapointedly while his shiny black button eyes scan the pages. He fumbles for a crayon in the coffee can next to the boards, and in a stark shade of purple, he scrawls his reply::

QUACK QUACK QuACK QuAcK QuACK QUACK QUACK

QUACK QuAK QUACK QUACK QUACK

::he pauses, and wonders if his comments were too inflammatory for these boards... then, with a wicked penquin-chuckle, he wonders if they were inflammatory enough.. he finishes the tirade with a derogatory remark about dwarves::

QuACKK QUACK QUACK QUACK QUAAAAAAAACK

::the penquin, after smugly wobbling in glee at the scandal his words will surely cause, scrawls out the name a human gave him long ago::
