[MR] Team registrations and team scoring for Chalice

[egeorges]

Greetings Atlantia!

FYI for those who are hoping to submit team registrations by email -- I will
be leaving for the site early Friday morning, and after that will not have
access to email.  So  if you try to email a registration after this evening,
I am unlikely to receive it in time.  There will be a shoebox available at
troll to accept team registrations starting Friday at 7 p.m.

Also, you do not need to have all team members present by 11 a.m. to
register your team.  Just put the completed registration in the box at troll
by 11 a.m.  A complete registration includes:  1) The name of your team, 2)
The name of each member of your team, and 3) the discipline each team member
will be competing in.

A word about the scoring -- Your team members will compete in the Challenger
competition in their chosen discipline.  At the end of each Challenger
competition, the individual participants shall be ranked from first to last.
You will be awarded points based on where your team member scored on that
list -- the higher the score, the more points you will get.  Points will be
awarded based on dividing the list into eighths -- i.e. competitors
finishing in the top eighth will get 120 points, the second eighth will get
105, the third 90, the fourth 75, the fifth 60, the sixth 45, the seventh
30, the eighth 15.  ONLY THE TOP 4 SCORES WILL BE USED to tabulate the
team's final score.  The lowest score will be discarded.  The team with the
highest score wins the Chalice of the Sun God.

IF THERE IS A TIE -- the winner will be settled in true Italian fashion,
with an assassins' tourney.  We'll discuss rules when the time comes.

If there are questions, please direct them to me offline so as not to waste
MR bandwidth -- scalucia at cox.net.  Thank you.

In Service,
Luce Antony Venus
Autocrat, Chalice of the Sun God
