So summer's coming to an end and we're all heading back to school or work or our otherwise busy lives. Our fun's at an end, right? Nope, not at all. We Sleuthies can always have fun! And what better way to wrap up your summer than with a little good old-fashioned competition? ;)

The time has come for another Villain Hunt Tournament, hosted by myself at the request of several people.

The format will be 16 detectives, each randomly paired off by a third party to face one other person. There will be no distinction between those who have access to Cairo and those who do not. The winner from each round will go on to the next round. Same day captures are considered ties, and will result in a triple threat match. Failed hunts automatically disqualify you for the round. The last one standing wins.

Anyone who would like to join, please post here or PM me. Participants will be gathered on a first-come, first-served basis. The first matches will start on Monday, September 6, 2010.

The rules:

You may:
-travel to Shangri La the night before, but NOT start the hunt
-use a travel kit
-use head of faction privileges
-use agencies and apartments to swap gear

You may not:
-use sidekick cases (for either clues or travel)
-enter second/third detectives, etc.

Basically, you're on the honor code.

Each following round of the competition will start on the next Monday at 0:00 sleuth server time, unless one of the matches takes longer than expected. In that case things will be adjusted accordingly and you will be updated.

I will not be participating in this contest, but will be acting solely as a judge, in order to give some of the new faces out there a chance to show their stuff! ;)

May you all continue to get Cairo in your rotations. Actually maybe I could go put the fix in. Anyone fancy Cairo four times in a row :D jokes...

Lol @ Secret Squirrel. That would be interestingly fun. Could be used for a special event in the future. =)

Why do those three little dots after the word joke have such an ominous feel.

C-LO, maybe we could call that event "Harakiri or the Last Detective Standing Tournament"

Bring it on SS!

Perhaps Boris and Natasha were onto something when they were always saying:

"Must get moose and squirrel" ;-)

@Sultry: Haha yeah. Those three dots after jokes really makes you wonder if he was kidding. But I dont like calling it "Harakiri". Sounds unpleasant imo. >.>

Sep-14-2010 11:14

Oh, and I forgot to add: "Lol @ ctown. xD"

Sep-14-2010 12:49

LOL, Cairo 4 times in a row sounds unpleasant as well C-LO. ; )

and Yes I will also laugh at ctown as well..... after all he will come in third place behind us! = )

OH! You meant laugh at his joke....... that too.
