The 419 World Jousting Tournament is the third worldwide tournament hosted by various organizations within Elanthia, including official orders. The championship is scheduled to occur at the end of Blufandu 419.

Contestants qualify for one of six skill-based divisions. Winners of each qualifier receive a prize and are eligible to joust in the championship.

Rules

  • Contestants may compete in any qualifier regardless of citizenship. (If a contestant fails to qualify, he may try again at the next qualifier.)
  • Contestants will verify their skill in polearms and shield usage via the TELLEXP command. They will be placed in the appropriate division based on the average of these two skills.
  • No spells of any kind are allowed to be in effect. (This is for simplicity, so that the hosts don't have to waste time arguing or consulting Elanthipedia to determine which spells might affect the outcome.)
  • No stat or skill buffs are allowed. This includes (but is not limited to) spells, supernatural abilities, Empathic links, and constellation jewelry.
  • Anyone found to be cheating will be automatically disqualified.
  • No mulligans. If a contestant jumps off his horse to avoid impact (because he is not properly equipped), he forfeits the match.
  • To avoid the appearance of impropriety at qualifiers, members of a host order will not compete in the qualifier that they are hosting but may compete in any other provincial qualifier. (Members of the Order of the Theren Guard may, however, compete in the championship if they qualified, since there is only one championship.)


The contestants will joust until one of the has earned a total of five points.

Result Points
