Commentary on Gradine’s entry:

Wouldn’t it be worth a thousand words for the picture part + 1 for each word used?

So…your strategy is to give the judge a negative impression right at the outset? It’s a bold move, Cotton. Let’s see if it works out for them.

Now that is a sensible answer! Although, I do suspect that an under-performing rogue would not actually “feel fine” in play under such conditions.

Oh, I personally have no issues with giving the rogue (or anyone else) easy access to advantage. And part of that for me lies in recognizing that a lot of stealth during combat is based at least somewhat on distraction rather than purely on location. But on a more general, non-personal note...

Just a reminder to our contestants: that post will be in the tournament thread!

Out of curiosity, if it feels like rogues are doing fine because human brains are bad at intuiting otherwise, what’s the problem? Maybe rogues are balanced more around how they feel than how they actually perform. And, if so, I ask again: what’s the problem?

Okay, we’ve got @Snarf Zagyg and @el-remmen confirmed to start Tuesday about 10:00 PM EDT (roughly 31 hours from now).

That’s around 7:00 PM EDT (4 hours from now) this evening for @Fenris-77 and @Gradine. Now that we’ve got our first confirmed match scheduled, please take any trash-talkin’ over to the other thread. For posterity’s sake.

To be clear, we need explicit confirmation on scheduling to set these matches in motion. My assumption is that @Snarf Zagyg is good with the previously-posted start time, based on the XP given, but it is, at present, still just an assumption on my part.

@Snarf Zagyg and @el-remmen Are you both down for a 10:00 PM EDT Tuesday start (about 31 hours and 20 minutes from this post)?

@humble minion @el-remmen @Snarf Zagyg @Wicht @loverdrive Would any two of you be available to start match 2 sometime Tuesday (possibly Wednesday for a couple of you)? If so, please post a range of acceptable start-times. If you have a preference, include that, too.

@Fenris-77 and @Gradine How about a 7:00 PM EDT start? That would be just about 5 hours and 30 minutes from this post.

@humble minion @Gradine @Snarf Zagyg @Wicht @loverdrive @Fenris-77 Do any two of you want to begin a match sometime this evening (as reckoned by EDT)?

It’s finally here, folk! The IRON DM 2021 Tournament begins. Herein, seven challengers will attempt to dethrone the current champion by testing their adventure-writing skills through three grueling rounds (if they can last that long!) of intense head-to-head matches. This year’s judges will be...

Have you got a range of days that work? Or won’t?

Okay! We can begin! @humble minion @FitzTheRuke @Gradine @el-remmen @Snarf Zagyg @Wicht @loverdrive @Fenris-77 Please post with a range of times and days that you would be able to begin your first round (24-hour) match. Please include your time zone as well. The judges will need...

Perhaps we can go back a little further to see if anyone from 2019’s tourney would like to fill our last slot? @MortalPlague @ajanders @Psykick @Wisdom Seeker
