Mandalorians! I'm pleased to announce the (rather belated) Mandalorian tournament! With Leandros as the new Mand'alor, he demands his warriors be in peak fighting condition, and, as such, is holding a grand tournament across the Mandalorian worlds to determine who among his people is the mightiest. Please see below for details:
Participation
See below for sign-up information. Mandalorian faction members are the only ones allowed to sign up for this tournament. Ultimately, eight (8) contestants will be selected to fight in the tournament. Everyone who signs up will be dropped into a random name selector app and chosen at random, to assure maximum fairness. However, even if you are not selected to fight, there are other ways to participate in this event. Additionally, if we get an odd number of people (i.e., not all eight slots are filled), the fight will instead be a three-way battle for dominance.
We fully encourage everyone (this includes non faction members!) who wants to have a hand in the event to post Open threads throughout its duration. These threads could be set in the audience, they could be set inside the arenas, they could be about spectating the event or gambling (i.e., placing bets on the fights); you could have threads set around the event's location while the event is going on. The point is, everyone is welcome to participate, even if they are not fighting.
However, it should be noted that events in these peripheral Open threads should not interfere with the tournament itself. That means no bombing the tournament people, or plots with similar intent. You can have your bar fights and scuffles — this is the Mandalorian faction after all — but let's try to avoid blowing up the event (I'm looking at you, Atlas thread).
Setting & Rewards
The event will be set within various arenas across Mandalorian space, allowing for a unique arena for participants. The arenas will feature differing environments (i.e., rocky terrain, forested terrain, watery terrain, etc.) which will be randomly selected before the start of each match. In addition, each competitor's load out will be similarly selected at random before the start of each match. This assures maximum randomization and provides both excitement and surprise in each match, for both participants and spectators. More details on this feature will be announced once we are ready to get the tournament underway. Starting to sound familiar? This is very similar to the Grand Boonta Eve tournament from last timeline.
As with any tournament, the winner of the brawl will be granted a reward equal to the gravity of their success. The tournament champion will see their reputation increase across the faction and will be granted a piece of advanced tech, as well as a unique title and symbol to be placed on their armor. More details on this will also come with the beginning of the tournament.

Other Information
The tournament will default to death-disabled. However, you are welcome to have your character die if you feel that it is appropriate. Additionally, though it is death disabled, serious injuries may occur. The fights will be until one contestant can no longer fight back.
Feel free to ask any questions below! I'd like to have signups complete no later than Friday evening.
