Counted blows tournament

2010-11-10T18:31:50Z

Averykrouse:

This is a simple tournament style wherein fighters face each other one on one and are given an arbitrary number of "Swings" in which to strike a "Counted Blow".

==Example==

In a ten swing counted blow tournament, Lord Bob will swing 10 times on Lord Chuck and any blows that would be counted as good are tallied as Lord Bob's score for the bout. Lord Chuck would then take 10 swings on Lord Bob and any "Good Blows" would count for Lord Chuck.

After both fighters have taken their swings whoever has more counted blows advances in the tournament which is normally run as a single elimination with counted blows being a modifier.

Bertie-beetle tournament

2010-11-10T18:29:10Z

Averykrouse:

Also known as a ''body parts tourney''. Each [[fighter]] has to collect a "body part": left leg, right leg, left arm, right arm, body and head. It's run like a [[meat grinder]]. During a bout each fighter's blows to various body parts (limbs etc.) are recorded. The loser of the bout stays on.

If you happen to [[kill]] your opponent with blow to the head, but you've already "collected" a head, the bout still ends. The first person to collect all body parts is the winner.

This [[tournament style|type of tourney]] may turn the tables a little on those who may normally win all the time by using one shot (say, a nice fast [[snap]] to the head).

Bedford Points Tournament

2010-11-10T18:28:38Z

Averykrouse:

The following is taken from the [[Kingdom of Atlantia]]'s MOL Handbook

==Explanation==

Named for the man who created it, Duke Michael of Bedford, the Bedford Points Tourney is for
fighters who love to fight and MOLs who are not afraid to do a little addition. This style of
tournament works well for moderate to large numbers of fighters and ensures that fighters generally fight individuals of their same skill level.

The Bedford Points Tournaments must be run on cards. The number of rounds will be predetermined
by the Marshal and may be changed in mid-tournament depending on circumstances.
Each fighter’s name should be placed on individual index cards along with a number so you can
track the pairings. The initial pairs are achieved by shuffling the cards and pulling them in pairs. This assures an unbiased initial pairing. Each pair of fighters will fight up to three times. The number and sequence of wins and losses determines the amount of points awarded to each fighter. The total amount of points for each round always equals ten (10). When an individual has lost twice the round is over for that pairing.

The scoring is as follows:

One fighter wins the first 2 fights 10 points to the winner; 0 to the loser

A win, a loss, a win 7 points for two kills; 3 for one kill

A win, a loss, a loss 7 points for two kills; 3 for one kill

A win, a double kill 7 points for two kills; 3 for one kill

Double kill, a double kill 5 points/5 points split

A win, a loss, a double kill 5 points/5 points split

Bear pit

2010-11-10T18:28:18Z

Averykrouse:

A bear pit is a way of organizing [[Single combat|singles fights]]. In general, a [[fighter]] remains in the "pit" (a defined area) until he is defeated, upon which the [[fighter]] who bested him takes his place, and so forth. Bear pits can be found both in [[Fight practice|practices]] and at [[events]].

==Styles==
There are several styles of bear pits.

* '''Basic:''' As described above. A single area to hold, with [[fighter]]s entering one at a time to challenge the holder.
* '''Multiple:''' Similar to basic, but multiple pits exist. Used when the number of [[fighter]]s is higher. Fights can be synchronized across pits or cycle at the speed of each individual pit. [[Fighter]]s join any unchallenged pit (sometimes as directed by a [[marshal]]).
* '''Progressive:''' This is a bear pit configuration that cycles fighters through four pits based upon their success in the previous pit. The pits are initially populated by 8 [[fighter]]s; two to a pit, with a line formed for fighters waiting to enter. The pits are generally laid out in a square, each occupying one quadrant. When [[lay on]] is called, all four fights commence, with the losers joining the end of the waiting line. The winner of pit three joins the remaining [[fighter]] in pit four. The winners of pits one and two move on to pit three. Four new [[fighter]]s move in to pits one and two. Then the cycle repeats. Getting to and holding pit four requires winning three fights in a row. Often, points are awarded based on how many bouts a [[fighter]] survives in pit four.
* '''Reverse:''' A rarely practiced style in which the losing [[fighter]] remains in the pit. The winner rejoins the end of the line. This style is also known as a [[Shark Pit Tournament]].

==Modifiers==
Certain modifiers can also be placed upon the bear pit.

* '''Wounds-Retained:''' If in the course of a bout, the winning [[fighter]] receives a [[Legal_target_areas|non-lethal wound]] (arm/leg), they must retain this disadvantage for the fights with all future challengers until they are bested. By default this is not observed.
* '''Pit border enforcement:''' Depending on the pit configuration, especially when multiple pits exist, this rule is used. It restricts [[fighter]]s from stepping out of a defined area. If a violation occurs, that [[fighter]] automatically loses. Depending on region and [[event]] customs, pushing your opponent out purposely may be frowned upon.

==Benefits==
There are several benefits of running a bear pit. Because it can involve many [[fighter]]s, often cycling quickly, any one individual can expect to fight everyone participating at least once. It also offers a competitive environment where winning is rewarded to some extent. The bear pit works with [[fighter]]s of mixed skill levels (particularly in the progressive format). The best [[fighter]]s will hold the pit and face many challengers, with stamina becoming a factor quickly. [[Fighter]]s with less skill still get to fight regularly and will occasionally find themselves holding the pit. Finally, the format offers a constant stream of bouts, with reasonable downtime for all but the best competitors.

Atlantian Speed Tournament

2010-11-10T18:28:02Z

Averykrouse:

The '''Atlantian Speed Tournament''' is a [[tournament style]] that is a variation on the standard [[SCA]] [[double elimination]]. In the first "round" all [[fighter]]s are given a single opponent and the round is fought simultaneously on the one [[lists field]]. All losers then move to a second lists field and new opponents are selected on both fields. Any losers from the winners' field move to the losers' field. Any victors on the losers' field move to the winners' field. Any losers on the losers' field will have been defeated twice, so they eliminated from the [[tournament]]. This continues until there is only one fighter left or the number of remaining fighters are small enough to allow other tournament styles to be implemented.

The "speed" aspect of this tournament comes from the fact that
# all bouts are fought simultaneously on the same field
# other than the first round, no [[herald]]s or [[lists officer]]s need be involved

Animal Hunt

2010-11-10T18:27:47Z

Averykrouse:

The following is taken from the [[Kingdom of Atlantia]]'s MOL Handbook

==Explanation==

In a Hunt, some fighters play the role of animals' while the other fighters form hunting teams. This is a popular tournament format for woods fighting. Animals will usually have special abilities and restrictions on how they must be killed.

For instance, a 'Boar' may only be killed by thrusting blows. A 'Lioness' is invulnerable until her 'Cubs' are killed. A 'Turtle' has an invulnerable 'shell' and can only be killed by a head blow. The MiC will recruit fighters to take the rolls of animals and brief all combatants on the rules before beginning the fighting. When a team defeats an animal, the animal will give them a token. Each animal must have distinct tokens, since different types of animals are
worth different points. At the end of the tournament, the teams report to the list table with their 'kill' and turn in all the tokens to be counted.

As an example, a hunt might include the following 'animals'. Point values are determined by how
difficult it is to kill the 'animal'.

*Bear - 10
*Stag - 10
*Boar - 15
*Turtle - 20
*Dragon - 125
*Unicorn - 15
*Lion - 15
*Wolf - 10

With imagination, you can include almost any type of animal.

Hunts run much more smoothly with advance preparation. The 'animals' will have time to make
themselves tabards or costumes reflective of their animal persona. The MiC can assemble tokens
for the animals at leisure, rather than scrounging around the day of the event. The MOL will know in advance what the rules and points are for each animal and can speed things along by helping brief the fighters.

Averykrouse:

Various styles of tournaments are used in the SCA. They include:

Challenge tournament

2010-11-10T18:26:26Z

Averykrouse:

A '''Challenge tournament''' is probably the easiest [[tournament style|style of tournament]] to run. You get all your [[fighter]]s together, one fighter [[challenge]]s another fighter, they fight, the loser goes to the [[Lists Officer|lists officer]] to tell them who their opponent was (so the lists officer records the wins/losses for each fighter). This means fighters can fight as much as they like and more fights can be carried out at one time, although it also means that the [[hit list]] might become a little disproportioned.
If one fighter only fights twice but wins both times, they have a 100% winning average, yet someone who has fought twelve bouts but lost four of them will only have a 66.66% winning average.

This system also works in [[ransom melee]]s.

Double elimination tournament

2010-11-10T18:14:56Z

Averykrouse:

A '''double elimination tournament''' is the title given (in [[Lochac]] at least) to a [[tournament style|style of tournament]] that is commonly used if large numbers of [[fighter]]s are involved. "Double-elimination" refers to the fact that a fighter is removed from the [[tournament]] once they have been defeated in two rounds.

This shortens tourneys but also puts pressure on those left 'in' because rounds come faster and faster, as the number of fighters falls. But the idea is also that every fighter gets to fight at least twice. In order to enhance the enjoyment of the fighters, a [[Lists Officer|lists officer]] should where possible try and make sure that at least one of these fights will be against someone who is roughly their equal in fighting, or someone who they rarely fight against.

Double elimination tournaments are usually fought as ''single kill'' or ''double kill''. A ''single kill'' tourney means that each round consists of one bout between each pair of fighters, whereas a ''double kill'' tourney means that each pair of fighters continues until one fighter has been defeated twice in that round.

William Marshall Tournament

2010-11-10T18:11:44Z

Averykrouse:

The following is taken from the [[Kingdom of Atlantia]]'s MOL Handbook

==Explanation==

This is an easier variation of a ransom tourney. Each fighter is given 5 coins at the
beginning of the tourney for their ransom, regardless of their Society rank. Fighting can be
either to incapacitate, as with a regular ransom tourney, or to the death. With each loss, the
losing combatant must give up a coin to the winning fighter. As long as a fighter still has a coin they can continue to compete.

When fighters are out of coins they are eliminated from the tourney. The fighter with the most coins at the end of the time period is the winner. Because the number of combatants will dwindle as losing fighters are eliminated, this can result in a highly competitive finish amongst the survivors.
