I've been thinking for awhile you should have some sort of ranged (bow specific, but I'm biased) fights. I think I finally thought a possible way to do it. Have some sort of quick draw tourney, like a gentlemans duel. Maybe not even be to the death, just if you get shot first you lose. Just a thought.

It's on his list, Dragamar. Maulem's running through a whole bunch of different combat styles to give everyone a chance to do what they excel at. Now if folks would just sign up for the actual competition rather than just a bunch of grudge matches. Not that I mind grudge matches.. those can be the best to watch.

I would love to join the tourneys, even if it is not something that I would do well at. But the people fighting are so much better than me it wouldn't even be fun. I didn't get a chance to do the tourneys that were by circle so I'll wait until I might have a chance.

Sadly I already have plans Friday night else I'd show up.

Maulem, one other rule I suggest: Can not be preparing a spell when the contest starts.

Not that I disagree with Tessaa's suggestion (because no-prepared spells is standard in spell duals), but this means that to enforce spell preps, they would not be allowed to be hidden. This would have to be made VERY clear at the outset that every cast can be traced to a spell preparation at risk of disqualification.
