Welcome one and all to the annual Sleuthville AVH Tournament 2012! I would like to extend a special welcome to the Sleuth’s oldies who have recently returned to the game, and a happy hello to the new players who have joined the community. In the spirit of friendly competition, and in the hopes of fostering new friendships and community togetherness, I hope that both new and old will join in this competition.

The format will be 16 detectives, randomly paired off into teams of two by a third party, to face one other team. (This hunt will go forward only if there are enough players participating [16]. If not, either the entry date deadline will be extended or the tournament will be cancelled altogether. )

For this competition, players going through Cairo will have one day taken off of their totals. The winning team will be the one with the lowest combined number of days for hunt completion. Failed hunts will not count against you; you will not be disqualified. If you fail your hunt and would like to start another, you may, but the day count will start from the official start date of the round.

The rules:

- As soon as you are matched up with your partner, please POST your team name on this thread.
- PM me as soon as possible if you find that your hunt goes through Cairo, so I can keep accurate records.
- In the spirit of competition, trash-talking is allowed, just as long as it is friendly and appropriate.
- If you are unable to compete in a round for whatever reason, you are allowed to ask someone to sub in for you for that round only. This privilege may only be used once, and only in emergencies. The player who is subbing in for you may be anyone who is not competing in the current round, even someone who was not initially entered in the competition.

I would like to reconsider what i said (about the end line) and offer the courage award to all 3 that managed to finish their VH after a failure. All 3 have shown their dedication so Ms Helen, Dogberta and Jason Arends will all take the 75k award.
How the award will be given. Either one of them will temprarily join the crypt and receive the total amount of 225k and then distribute it or one by one can join the crypt for a while and receive their award . Pls msg me when ready for invitation and payment. I keep a slot open for invites

That is incredibly generous of you Vampiric Smile, I thank you, i found this competition extremely fun, i got a nice hawaiian shirt out of it, and ive become a lot better at doing AI cases on my own, and i feel i did my absolute best for my first try at hunting villains, even without advancing further into the competition i really did have a blast and i want to thank Dogberta for being an awesome teammate and for being very understanding, i hope we pair up again in the future someday.

Also i want to thank Riza without which this competition wouldnt be taking place, and a big congratulations to everyone in this competition, to those not advancing on all doing well, and for those advancing Good Luck and have fun :)

And definitely thank you Vampiric Smile, i will never forget your encouragement to all and your genorosity.

Oh fudgeit. I am already in Shangril la. Good thing I rechecked the thread. I was about to start a hunt at roll-over.

What's probable is me mixing up west and east, north and south when I can't even work out what day is Wednesday and what day is Thursday.

Invitation to join CD&H still stands.

VS, thank you. It is very kind and part of the wonderful spirit of the game community.

Do you know how many Queens and Kings have had their heads cut off...?

MMMWWWWAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Vive la revolution!
