URPG Tornado Tag Championships [Round One][CHECK FOR LATEST UPDATE]

[Trainer17]

by : MM & Trainer17

Without further adieu, on behalf of Milotic_Master, let me present to you the Matchups, Rules for Round One battles and of course, the Prizes.

Since all the formalities of Signing up and Team formation are done, Let me now brief you on what exactly the "Tornado Tag Championships" mean.

Originally known as the Texas Tornado match. In this match, all wrestlers involved are allowed to be in the ring at the same time,
and thus all wrestlers are vulnerable to having a fall scored against them.
-Wikipedia

So keeping that in mind, you guys now really know how the Matchups are made.
Even before announcing the Matchups, Take a look at what you guys win as Prizes, and the Entrants info are provided here as well.

No items except helds [Optional]
Sleep/Freeze Clause
Normal Weather/Terrain

For this round, All referees reffing a battle will earn 3K per battle,

To all Referees :
-Post your logging here.
-You guys will get your wages at the end of the Tournament, not at the end of each round.

Time Limit : No time limit. For now, that is.

A little message :
MM and I wish every participant, all the best, and may the force be with you!

*For those with different Time Zones and such, take a look at post #11.*

[Maleficent]

That's hot.
I'm eyeing up the demanding mons.

[Ataro]

I'd like to suggest that posting the ref log here would be fine. Since posting in both our personal log book and here would be confusing when it comes to wages counting.

Just remembered that. Lulz. Thanks for looking that out, Dan.

[RawrIsMyMiddleName]

So if Canis Lupus and I would pass this round, then would be partners until we are eliminated? I didn't get it because there was not that much details in either post. :x

Let's take your team for Example.

Canis & Noan Vs Bryce & Ataro

If you and Canis win, your names will be in BOLD, and you guys move on. Bryce and Ataro however, are kicked out of the tourny.
So by looking at the other teams, 2 People would be kicked off when they lose, which at the end, leaves with 8 Teams still, but with only 2 People.

[-Pichu Boy-]

You really know how to be evil, MM and Sam. Dx

Oh well, best get strategising with ArcanineSavior if we're gonna win this :P

[Stinky]

Hey, Ataro is in a timezone where it is hard for all of the members in our battle to be on at once (12 hours ahead of Bryce and I, 15 hours ahead of Cruz iirc), so could we have a forum battle?

[iReign]

Is there a set date we HAVE to battle?

[Trainer17]

@ Canis : Yes you may, and that can apply to anyone who are on different time zones.
Just indicate "URPG Tornado Tag Tourny Battle" or anything along those lines as the topic title^^

Thanks for bringing this time zone thingy up Mic. =D

Refs, when you log Tourney Forum battles, for those with killing time zone,
provide the linky of the forum battle as usual :]

@ AS : There's so specific time limit given by MM,
but it is advised to have them as soon as you're able to ^^

Updates : Just included in a new battle rule
-Sleep/Freeze Clause
So that it can be fair ^^

[Haze]

Uhh wtf, why are we fighting our teammates first round? :|
