countryclub | The All-Trench Karate War

Hello, everyone! It's time for a Sleeper Combat Tournament put on by Johnny Lawrence, Terry Silver, and Ozpin RWBY, plus a few other self-declared combat teachers in town. For the original planning post, look here. (If you'd like to join as a late addition, just jump in below!)

Fights will take place at the Gate. Here are the rules:

Each Sleeper combatant must be associated with a Sleeper combat instructor (Johnny, Terry, Ozpin, Sasuke, or Amaratsu). Late additions and handwaved ties are fine!
Sleepers can fight in the armed or unarmed bracket, or in both.
The use of powers is heavily discouraged and can result in a foul.
Excessive force or the injury of combatants is heavily discouraged and can result in a foul.
All melee weapons are welcome in armed combat. Each match is to first touch. All parts of the body are valid targets. Three points wins the match.
All fighting styles are welcome in unarmed combat. A point is declared when contact is made with head or torso. (A foul is called if you strike the neck, spine, or below the waist.) Three points wins the match.

Now the timeline for both Armed and Unarmed brackets:

5/14 | Round One | This post goes up. Please comment confirming your participation by 11:59 EST on the 16th. Please state whether you have an opponent in mind (can be from your same school).
5/17 | Round One | If you didn't claim an opponent, you will receive an RNG opponent (will be from a different school when possible). Past this point late arrivals are still welcome, but will be paired with each other. If you OOCly agree on a match winner, please comment confirming the winner by 11:59 EST on the 18th.

5/19 | Round Two | If you didn't declare a match winner, you will receive an RNG winner. Winners will move on to the next round! We repeat the process again. Please state whether you have an opponent in mind by 11:59 EST on the 20th.
5/21 | Round Two | If you didn't claim an opponent, you will receive an RNG opponent. If you OOCly agree on a match winner, please comment confirming the winner by 11:59 EST on the 22nd.

5/23 | Round Three | If you didn't declare a match winner, you will receive an RNG winner. Winners will move on to the next round! We repeat the process again. Please state whether you have an opponent in mind by 11:59 EST on the 22nd.
5/25 | Round Three | If you didn't claim an opponent, you will receive an RNG opponent. If you OOCly agree on a match winner, please comment confirming the winner by 11:59 EST on the 23rd.

FINAL MATCH | Y'all know the drill.

The log itself will go up once Round One is generated. You can tag as quickly or slowly as you want, and you can handwave fights entirely if you talk it out with your matchup partner.

To join as a combatant, please post this form!

To join as a noncombatant helper (e.g. a healer, reality manipulator, snack-provider, etc) please comment at the bottom and we'll leave space for you in the tournament log!

Thank you everyone for participating!

Alice likes a scrap but hates rules more than she likes to fight and is thus here to provide a vital service in the form of HECKLING and providing an amateur record of historic events.

She'll be more inclined to make fun of Johnny's students and to cheer on Ozpin's because she's a biased little twerp, hit me up if you would care to have your character personally hollered at.
