Scroll down to the TOP and TOPO links. Check the rulings first to see
how the entries were judged.
Here's the link to the rules, which may change later according to Brand_S'
mood, and who the judges are. Interesting panel don't you think? :p

Please don't pull any punches. Yes, your opponent might be a friend,
but this is a competition and for fun. In the last tourney, friends
went against each other and their friendships remained intact afterwards
since nothing was taken seriously. Yes, I really pulled out everything
when I went against DMD as did he, but he knows as well I that it was
all in fun. Ugh... the imagery I saw in my head from the words I wrote
was not pretty. It's difficult to flame against a friend, but also gives
an advantage to both contestants since they know what will tick the
other off. It makes for an interesting match. :p
S gave you time to prepare this round so use it wisely and study your
opponent. Have fun above all and don't take anything personally. It's
just a game and it's okay to walk away if you don't have the time or
for personal reasons. If you don't show or post within the time period
set for that match, then you will lose and whatever is posted after
time expired will be disqualified.
Strike first, strike with multiple consecutive replies, bide your time
as you watch what your opponent posts, defend and attack as best as
you can and *be* the one with the last word as the time expires. Remember
the bboard is on Eastern Standard Time. But be careful that you don't
post too much or you will be giving your opponent ammunition against
you.
Good luck to the contestants. Give us a good show. HAVE FUN.

P.S.
I don't mind if any contestant rips on me as long as it's *not* during
match time. I reserve the right to rip you to pieces if I read something
that isn't humorous and entertaining.
