The Discordian Games: Round 1 Complete! Winners announced! · 9:35pm Jun 24th, 2015
After much time and far too much waiting, I am so pleased to announce that Round 1 of the Discordian Games is officially over. It's been a long, hard road--longer than it really should've, and for that I apologize--but the work you guys have put out has been amazing. As well, your patience and sticking with it is much appreciated. From here on out, things should run a little more quicker to course.
Now, let's get to what you've all been waiting for: Those who have achieved victory this round!
ROUND 1 CHAMPIONS
Motor Mind vs. Trailblazer and Surefooted ... Trailblazer and Surefooted!
Dusty vs. Alcauto ... Alcauto!
Rocky vs. Arcanum ... Arcanum!
Ember vs. Thunder Hammer ... Thunder Hammer!
Morning Glow vs. Grey Tiercel ... Grey Tiercel!
Arika vs. Hoax ... Arika!
Pratfall vs. Kakumei ... Kakumei!
Zephyr vs. Fireweaver ... Zephyr!
I'm hoping this image updates to show the completed Round 1, like it says it should. Hrm.
If all the authors who made it through would PM me, I would absolutely appreciate it. Just to kind of make sure you're still around and aware. REMEMBER TO STAY ANONYMOUS.
In the next couple days, I will be formulating the specific pairing battlefields, as well as some...surprises for Round 2, heh. Don't think it'll be just as simple as killing your opponent now, peeps. One other thing I can guarantee: The word count is being upped to 7000.
However, you are welcome to go ahead and contact your opponent and discuss character info and whatnot. I'll just put those pairings down...
ROUND 2 PAIRINGS
Trailblazer and Surefooted vs. Alcauto
Arcanum vs. Thunder Hammer
Grey Tiercel vs. Arika
Kakumei vs. Zephyr
If you need to know who someone is, please PM me and I'll let you know. Look out for my next blog, which will give you the specific details for Round 2! Good luck and congrats those who have moved on! But plenty of thank yous to all who have been eliminated. I also ask you do not claim your characters quite yet, as with the small amount of people here, process of elimination would be too easy.
Shoot! I had wanted to read through all the pairings and get my votes in on time, but I only got through the first two! Looks like I could have been the deciding vote for T&S in fight one, though, so at least that's worth something.
If it's going to take awhile before the next round of fights is up, then I guess I'll have time to read up on what I missed, but whatever my votes may have been won't matter. Blegh.
Congrats to all the winners, and good luck to those of you in the next round!

It'll definitely be a few weeks. Want to give them plenty of time to write 7K after all.
Instead of voting, perhaps you could give feedback? I'm sure the authors would appreciate that just as well! Either way, thanks for reading and voting as you have!
