Greetings, people of Sleuthville! The time has come once again for the annual Sleuthville Arch-Villain Hunt Tournament. This year, in an attempt to change things up a bit, I’m happy to announce the return of the one-on-one matchups! Oldies and newcomers alike are welcome to participate. What better way to stave off boredom than a little friendly competition?
The format will be 16 detectives, each randomly paired off by a magic baseball hat to face one other person. For this competition, players going through Cairo will have a day taken off their totals. The fastest player(s) from each round will go on to the next round until a winner is determined. In the case of a tie (same day capture), both players will move on to compete in a triple threat matchup. 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 last one standing wins.
The rules:
- Either PM me or post here 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.
- You may not PM me to ask for any AVH hunt help or advice.
- 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.
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

Thank you for the wishes, but I think that it will be a finale in three, as Sal Iva finished his hunt in time also (being a day extra in Cairo). Right?

Congrats Sal! :D
Well, right now, Mortimer just can't seem to be able to go wrong :D
Mortimer, pengueener and Sal will be moving on; whoever finishes first will be this year's winner, or we might have another tie and keep going at it till we do have a winner...fun, fun, fun :D You can do the fancy write-up if you want to, Dashing :) Just to make sure he doesn't have anything worthwhile to say, I'll add that that everybody will start on Monday, to give all of us what I hope will be a great show! :D
Oh, and the scores...well:
Mortimer Maze ~ (3)
Yeti Face ~ (4)
pengueener ~ (4 - 1) = (3)
Sal Iva ~ (4 - 1) = (3)
So. That's that. All the best to you three, and may the best (or should that be luckiest?) hunter win! :D
*Disclaimer: The Announcer's not actually all that bad. He's just pretty bad. But very, very Dashing; I think Z would agree ;D

Thanks Bela and DW. I just staggeered in under the wire. What a hunt. Repeat clues everywhere except the final city.
Congratulations pengueener and Mortimer for their fine performances and to all the contestants, who made great showings of their own and who have helped make this tournament a success so far.

I just got out of Dehli. As if I needed any more reasons to hate the city. Three days in Dehli! Three days of hearing "it's a woman" and "it's south of bank/shop" on and on and on and on. Ugh.

*notices Miss Talbot has already done his job for him*
Oh. Oh dear. Miss Hawkeye will not like this one bit.
*slinks off to hide in the bar with the miserable hunters*

Thank you, Lady Z. I thought you and Bela were going to kick all our butts the way this started.
