The tournament will work as follows. Each knight will chose a Lady to compete for. Princes and other royals have the option or choosing if they will have a Lady or not. Ladies are so if the competitor wins, he recieves a reward of the lady's choosing. If they lose, nothing happens except for dishonor in the eyes of the Lady and the competitor's King.
For the tournament, the competitor will compete against NPC (non played characters) and will post one, or even two, posts for their selected event. Based on their skills and knowledge of tournament rules, they will be compared to other competitors in the event. A winner will then be declared by the staff members and if necessary, a king or queen.
If you are intending to have a character compete, please make sure to understand that your character will be wearing heavy armor. Therefore, he would not suddenly do flips and all that. Please watch God-Moding and Power-Playing. If you are found of this, you will be asked to fix it. Second offense, post is deleted. Third offense, character is disqualified from tournament.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
