Once the sign-ups were complete, it was only a matter of hours before the standings and brackets were posted on the jumbotron. There were speeches and a pre-unveiling show inside Antonius Arena, and all kinds of pomp. Then finally, the curtain was raised, and the mustached midget of an announcer read off of the names for bracket 1.
Here are today's matches!:
Phalluce v. David Omen v. Kang Ta Zach v. Sarang Kenu v. Jong-Quinn
Bryce v. Yuba Drakkar v. Tack Shino v. Indigo Mystery Man v. Alexa
The crowd let out a cheer at some of the familiar names, and fireworks went up. Then everyone dispersed to the various arenas to take their seats.
OOC: I didn't really check all of the posts to see who posted an IC sign-up post. I mostly went by the people who said they were signing up on the OOC board. This is Round 1: Bracket 1, and it will last one week. Then Round 1: Bracket 2 will start next week. Like I said in another post, I'm staggering the matches each week so that everyone also has some RPing time outside of matches. And fighters can watch each other from the stands or something. So if you're not scheduled in a match right now, then make your fighter do something else. If you are in a match, go to the 'Current Matches' board, and post under the appropriate thread.
Kenu was sitting on a chair drinking some water in an outside café, when he suddenly heard cheers coming from a large crowd. Making his way towards the area all the excitement was coming from, the fighter could see a very large screen which had the names of fighters posted on it. Kenu looked for his name and soon found it, and looking to the right of his name could see the person he would be fighting. Jong-Quinn? Well whoever that is, better be ready for me. I'm not going to go easy on my opponents, and I expect them to do the same. The fighter thought to himself, as he made his way into a locker room.
