Not taking part in the melee?

Huh, yeah. Kinda seems right up Walton's alley, being a melée combat character.

[Ser Walton Dulver]

No. Ser Walton isn't clown to fight for folk's fun (his opinion, not mine). In general, he doesn't participate in tournaments. :;

I suggest we'll review the scoring rules at Drakeson after we've ran the NPC's through it. Loreth Lansdale picked up 3 net DoS for his 5th match proceeding past round 3, but that is likely the effect of having 1 more rank of AH. Ser Loreth wasn't too far away from getting defeated in round 6.

Hopefully other 3 coming up in a bit.

[Theomore Tullison]

Forrest Frey puts in a strong showing, if maybe a bit lucky here and there. Lymond Mallister on the other hand is knocked out in round 6.

[Theomore Tullison]

For Drakeson tourney, I believe we're waiting for Jorah and Jon (new player may not be fully ready to join the fun yet)? Then Ereth needs to decide whether he wants to partake, and Kevan under reader/Ben management perhaps?

Aside from Fendrel, Tymon and Dyana, neither having shown much lifesign as of yet, I believe that should be everyone interested in taking part?

[Baelon Drakeson]

Sounds about right.

Also, I'm starting to think I underestimated the difficulty of the three joust preliminary in my tourney. It was meant to be quick and easy, but it does not seem to have turned out that way.

[Benedict Marsten]

I will get to Kevan, hopefully by end of day.

[Baelon Drakeson]

If you want to just give his jousting stats, I can run it. I know you found it tedious to do your own, and I don't mind.

Before factoring in DP's and potential use of daily benefits, it's mostly Baelon, Theo, Tymon and Jon (I believe) that are notably more capable than a KoQ when it comes to jousting. Ben and Alfred pretty much match a KoQ stat for stat, Kevan is slightly stronger, Anvil slightly weaker.

Though I am calling 4 or 5 PC's in the final eight, which is about where it was at Riverrun (and one of them cheated to get there).

Fair enough. At current the top 8 are shifted in the other direction (3 PCs, 5 NCs), though with Tymon, Jon (Welcome!), and challenges, that could easily tilt the other way.

Sorry for the tardiness of my reply but it is good to finally get some posting in.

I have my final drafts to Reader and should be getting approval soon. I will catch up on the forums and threads and be good to go by Friday. Let me know what you need from me and may the best (or least obvious cheater) win!

[Theomore Tullison]

Saying here which events you'll sign up for (I think all would suit you, actually.) makes it official.

For Drakeson tourney specifically, follow these steps: viewtopic.php?f=240&
t=3006
There's a deadline in place, so getting it done by Sunday would be preferable.

Welcome!

And yes, what Theo said.

Looking forward to your participation... though be warned that cheaters are not well thought of in my lands... :;

If you have any questions on how to go about doing it - whether about mechanics, using orokos, or whatever - feel free ask in that thread or by PM.

[Jon Templeton]

Thanks for the link on the jousting rules. It took awhile against the KoQ but Jon came out on top for the Drakeson tourney.

Since this is my first joust I'd love pointers/critiques on my post. I'm sure I might have missed something somewhere.

Go-go three way tie for 6th place. 28 pointers unite!

And if it isn't too late I imagine Jon will participate in the Bartheld tourney (joust and melee). I believe that forum isn't up yet but I am still familiarizing myself with the forum.

[Ser Jorah Holt]

aye, you did well against him. Sometimes you can get a bit of luck, but other jousts can end up being a grind wearing each other down

[Darron Greyjoy]

Any update on the melee for the Bartheld tourney?
