Will do! Also, @Nictorius @Edgedancer Jak @Perspective @BitBitio... I hate to say this, but if you don’t respond by January 1, I am going to continue the competition without you. I’ll extend the start date to January 1, so with the New Year, we’ll start the competition... hopefully this all works out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to the Coppermind and pick the most obscure person you can. Then try to roast from their perspective. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fezzik Posted December 31, 2018 Report Share Posted December 31, 2018 I notice there are only 15 people listed in the OP. I would be happy to round out the 16, but I only participated in round 4 prelims, so if I didn't advance far enough to qualify, I understand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashspren Posted January 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 (edited) Happy New Year everyone, and welcome to the Tournament of Champions! All of the participants have already put for their amazing roasting skills, so we are bound to see some burns. Also, thanks to the amazing twists, these rounds are sure to be entertaining... as long as you're not participating. There are some changes I want to go over for this tournament. For one, instead of the usual 48 hours, everyone will have 96 hours to put in their roasts. If everyone gets theirs in before then, I will start the voting early. With the addition of twists, the general format will not be the same. Instead of going from 16 people to 4 to 2, the tournament will narrow down from 16 to 12 to 4 to 2. Paired with the time increase, this will make for a much longer tournament, but I'm hoping everyone will enjoy what's in store. For these primary rounds, we will be roasting in 2 v 2 battles. You and one other person will be on a team, roasting two other people. Everyone will submit one unique rap, but you may work with your teammate on creating the best rap possible and use references to their characters (eg. – Breeze is on a team with Vasher, trying to roast Gavilar: "Look, my buddy Vasher here, he's a Breath master / But all you've ever done is create a disaster"). Then, everyone will vote on which team wins. Of the losing team, the two participants will give their character's "rapper name", or the Returned version of their character (eg. – Lift is "Your Pancakefulness"). Then, everyone will vote on their favorite Returned name, and that person will stay in the tournament. Additionally, every round of the primaries will have a creative theme, and a special twist. Each cycle of the primaries will last for a week. Here's how the timing will play out... 96 hours: Participants write and post their raps 24 hours: people vote on the winner 24 hours: losing team posts their Returned names 24 hours: people vote on Returned names Please let me know if you have any questions! Feel free to post on the thread, write a message on my feed, or PM me. Now, on to the first round! Team 1: @hoiditthroughthegrapevine, with Taravangian! @Zath, with Sja-anat! Team 2: @Sorana, with The Girl Who Looked Up! @Silva, with Yokska! Your theme: Oscar Acceptance Speech Your special twist: You must use three quotes from or about your character. You have 96 hours. Good luck! Edited January 1, 2019 by Ashspren 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felt Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 Wow, you weren't kidding when you said major twists This sounds like fun!!! will they stay in the tournament as a returned or as the original character? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toaster Retribution Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 (edited) My biggest question is who Yokska is... Edit: Ah, its that tailor from Kholinar who reminded me about the Hunger Games. I see now. Good luck everyone.

Well, @Sorana, this ought to be fun Definitly! This will be a lot of fun. And you're a great Teammate to have! Lucky me! And I guess I need to drive by my father's place tomorrow and interrupt him reading Oathbringer for a few days. @Ashspren A short question: we'll write a rap themed around an oscar's acceptance speech? Or do we write a speech? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
