crushing despair....

If that's sitting on your desk, it might be time for a new job. Does it at least make a good paperweight?

Around my desk, not on it. I work for a probate law firm.

Ooh, my mother used to work in probate! Genealogical shenanigans were always the best.

(ETA: Genealogical Shenanigans could have been such a fun ingredient... Sigh...)

Wow, it would have.

So would "Mother In Probate."

I don't work in probate law, or any other form of law. I actually work for a consulting engineering firm.

The match begins on Tuesday! We have room for one more talented, twisted, crafty Dungeon Master...

...go on, you know you want to.

I put together the preliminary play roster, to give everyone a chance to look it over before the match starts. If you spot any scheduling conflicts, please let me know.

Using my trusty Chessex d%s, I assigned each player a random number. Then I grouped highest with lowest, 2nd highest with 2nd lowest, 3rd highest with 3rd lowest, and so forth. The end result looks like this:

Sanzuo (94)
humble minion (8)

Wicht (78)
Green Dice (13)

MortalPlague (76)
ender wiggin (14)

Pour (72)
MatthewJHanson (18)

Iron Sky (70)
Tremorsense (23)

Waylander the Slayer (14 60)
Pro-Paladin (24)

Allenchan (56)
<open> (28)

Wik (46)
howandwhy99 (29)

You will notice that we still have an open slot. If you would like to try your hand at Iron DMing, drop me a line and I'll put you in, competing against Allenchan. If we don't have a contender by the time the match starts, I reckon I will compete.

I am going to separate each match by about 2 days, and alternate the judges. That will give each judge almost a week to review and post their judgment for each round. Does this sound like a comfortable pace? or should I speed things up a bit?

 

[ender_wiggin]

Sounds good to me. I'm ready to go.

 

[Wicht]

So my match begins around June 3rd, correct?

 

[CleverNickName]

So far, yes. Unless someone comes forward with a scheduling conflict and I have to swap your match with another one, you will be competing in about six days.

 

[Sanzuo]

How long will we have once the round starts to post our actual entry?
