Hello DARPians!

I've been super impressed with everyone's enthusiasm for the Quidditch Cup, and I'm enjoying seeing all of the characters crop up on the wiki. I think this event will be a lot of fun for everyone!

I've had some questions about when things will start, and how it's going to work, so that's what this blog is for!

I will be gone on a mission trip from June 27th-July 5th (OOC if that wasn't clear), and I'm headed somewhere that won't have any internet access that I'm anticipating. The Tournament is going to start on June 29th (the first week of summer IC). So what that means is... my lovely fellow Bcrat Jisk has told me he can start the tournament up so that you don't have to wait a whole week for me to return! Yaay!

Before I go, I'll be uploading all of the expansion pages-- each team will have a page for their camp, and there will be a general page for spectators to RP on. I'll also create all of the pages for the first round of games. I'll also release the bracket at this time. Remember, don't post on the games until the 29th. There won't be "locker rooms" for these games-- you'll just be expected to post with your players in the games.

Speaking of games! We have 7 games to get through in 3 weeks. This means that each game can't last a week OOC like it does for Hogwarts. Based on the enthusiasm I'm seeing, I don't think this will be a huge issue, which is awesome. Each game will last 3 days OOC.

All of the other usual rules of Quidditch will apply-- following the GM, making attempts, things like that.

We have 26 players right now, out of 56. There are still lots of teams that have spots open. Remember, you're allowed up to 3 characters, on different teams.

As always, if you have any questions, feel free to ask!
