Tournament News #1: Last Day of Registration ======================================================================= ***** Final Call for Registrations: http://www.heeter.net/w2wt/index.html ***** ***** Today is the official Tournament Registration Deadline!!!!! ***** ***** Entries *will* be accepted until Sunday - if we have space! ***** Mighty Warlord, You sit in the great dining hall of your castle, feasting with the lords and ladies of your lands. The conversation, of course, centers around the upcoming Tournament in which you have recently Registered! Anticipation hangs in the air, a glorious cloud thicker than the smoke from the pipes of the lords, more appetizing than the smell of the excellent food, as alluring as the finest of the ladies perfumes, and sweeter than any incense of the East. You find it difficult to take a sip from your golden goblet - it is so hard to get your face to stop smiling long enough to drink! One of your pages steps into the hall and places a small scroll in your hands, whispering "An urgent message from Tournament Headquarters, sire - it just arrived." You scan the announcement, nod, and decide to make a proclamation. The cloud of anticipation crystallizes around you - a hundred faces turn your way as you arise to speak. "Lords and Ladies, squires and servants," you begin with a grin, "a message has just arrived from the Tournament!" Many knowing glances are exchanged around the room, and the magical light from your special chandeliers sparkles from dozens of smiles. "Today is the final day of Registration. Soon, the Tournament will begin!" A great cheer goes up amidst a great clinking of wine glasses! "At the moment, 188 Warlords from 25 countries have entered the Tournament. Over 100 have been officially activated, with the remainder waiting patiently for play-by-email certification." (You skip ove the section that reminds you to respond to your Email Buddy immediately if you have not already done so. :) ) You read from the announcement: "The tournament organizers have one final request. They say, 'On this, the final day of Registration, we ask you to contact all the Warlords you know, and remind them to Register before it's too late to join! We don't want to make Friday the 13th of June an unlucky day for someone by leaving them behind!'" "We shall hear from the Tournament again soon, after Registration is completed," you shout over the growing clamor. "Please excuse me for a moment - I need to contact a few of my friends. It would be a pity not to have the chance to play against them in the Tournament!" You summon your pages and leave the swelling uproar of excited conversation behind, making haste to make sure none of your friends miss out on the Tournament! ***** Remember: Info and Registration at http://www.heeter.net/w2wt/index.html ***** ***** (No Javascript? http://www.heeter.net/w2wt/index.html) **** ***** The official Tournament Registration Deadline is Today! **** ***** Entries *will* be accepted until Sunday - if we have space! ***** -- Bob Heeter, Warlords II World Tournament Coordinator
