[b]This is the opening message for The Semi Final Game of Thud Tournament 2006[/b]
....and The Battle continues yet again! One last time[*], Koom Valley will be the backdrop for The Battle of Battles. Strange as it may seem, the frightened tourists that fled Koom Valley in Round Two spread word, and now there's a huge bloodthirsty crowd. Dwarfs and Trolls alike have gathered en masse to witness this Battle. And most of Ankh-Morpork, of course. Any word of a good fight is enough to empty the city in a heartbeat (or two[**])...
Over there are a couple of wheelchairs with people in it missing various limbs. Every one of them has an Igor standing next to it. Hmmmm. Looks like you'll be doing some good for the people, whether you win or lose.
The City Watch has been instructed to turn a blind eye, and Sam Vimes is at home looking for a Cow with Young Sam. So you can kill, carnage, pillage, burn, and generally be a b*st*rd as much as you like. You can thank the Patrician for that.
He's over there, in that... But wait! Who's that, next to the Patrician? Well I'll be... if that isn't Oograh Boike! Hells! It looks like you need to do the killing, carnaging, pillaging, burning, and generally being a b*st*rd whenever he's not looking. Let's hope the Patrician can distract him enough of the time for you to still have a bit of fun...
Wipe your axes, pick those tiny bits of dwarf from your club, say a last prayer to the God(s) of your choice, and into the battle with Pride, Honour, and a little knife hidden in your boots!
You, my friends, have made it to the Semi Final Game of TT2006. The two of you will have to decide which one of you will be Number Three, and which one of you we'll have to leave for the Igors (or the miners). I don't mind either way, as long as it's a fair fight, with lots of blood and pebbles.
Same rules apply as for the other rounds. Forum gaming is default until you've had an online game. Until then, please stick to the 24-hour rule. Missus Oograh put on her blindfold again, and picked [b]SANEAlex[/b]'s name out of a hat to be [b][i]the first one to post a move, within 24 hours starting now![/i][/b] This is the Semi Finals, so no leniency any more! Post, or consider the consequences.
But what am I droning on about, right? You know the drill. Go for it, and may the best sentient[***] being win.
--------------------------------------------------
[*]For the time being.
[**]Foul Ole Ron [i]has[/i] to do his "Bugrit, Millennium Hand and Shrimp" to a couple of lampposts before he can leave....
[***]Trolls included (just this once).
Good Luck, and Happy Thudding!
