Introduction
Here, you can pit against other players and see who really is the best roleplayer. The system is fairly simple, and will be explained thoroughly. If you don't understand, I would suggest not playing this part of the board.
Basically, you can challenge anyone to a duel, regardless of your rank or status. This means that Apprentices can fight Masters, and whilst the equipment and abilities you gain IG can be used here, it doesn't necessarily mean the Master will win. Its all about the skill of your writing.
You can make a challenge through PM or OG Chat, AIM, MSN, whatever. Once you've put forth a challenge, and the opponent accepts, you post a thread here with the names of the participants and you wait. A staff member will then decide, through a simple die roll, who goes first. The fighting system is as follows:
Player A: Attack Post
Player B: Defend & Counter Post
Player A: Defend & Kill Post
Player B: Defend & Kill Post
After those four posts, the staff member who is handling your bout will decide whose writing was better, and who left the arena alive.
Remember that if you are killed in the arena, does not mean you are killed in the game!
A staff member may also take it upon themselves to create certain handicaps on bouts. This does not mean that a staff member can give one fighter a double-blade lightsaber and give the other fighter nothing but his fists. The decisions must be fair, if they are not you can contact another staff member and ask them to look it over.
The Second 7
All rules from The Legend board apply here, as well as the following:
1. Death in the arena does not mean death in the game
2. Do not argue a staff members decision in your thread
3. If there is a problem, contact your referee via PM
4. If you disagree with a decision, you can appeal
5. Force powers can be used here
6. Force powers do not make your fighter invincible
7. IG taunting is allowed - if you OG insult, you will be warned and possibly banned
