(http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j185/A_Minor/Warband/dueltourny1.png)Cytat: HednalagenIf someone speaks insults to another man (”You’re not the like of a man, and not a man in your chest!” – ”I’m a man like you!”), they shall meet where three roads meet. If he who has spoken comes and not the insulted one, then he shall be as he’s been called: no right to swear oaths, no right to bear witness, may it concern man or woman.
If the insulted one comes and not he who has spoken, then he shall cry ”Niðingr!” three times and make a mark in the ground, and he is worse who spoke what he dared not keep.
Now both meet fully armed: if the insulted one falls, the compensation is half a weregild; if he who has spoken falls, insults are the worst, the tongue the head’s bane, he shall lie in a field of no compensation.

What it is:
The "Einherjar Duel Tournament"! will be two 16 player teams fighting 1 on 1 (best of three). The winner of the first group will face the winner of the second group, the loser being the person who comes in second. The tournament will be a "double elimination" which means, if you fight and die, you still have a chance of a come back. The server we use, the Einherjar_Holmgang, will be locked at 18.00 on the given day. The tournament however does not start until 18.30-19.00. Thus granting me the time to write up all the names, by hand, and let the stragglers the much needed time to get in and perhaps even have time for some warm up sessions.
TS Server Info
Address: IP: 62.20.172.153 or bgts3.no-ip.org, Port: 8767
General spectators are free to use the Tavern Channel, the Vikingr Channel is reserved for server admins, combatants and myself only. The channel will be locked before event time and passwords will be distributed one hour before event time.
How it is going to happen:
I will distribute TS and server passwords one hour before event time. During the time, people can spawn in, join TS, warm up, I will set up the brackets. There will be a list of alternates, if there is an alternate 1/2 hour before the event is set to start I will replace the alternate to the missing spot in Round 1. If you know absolutely that you will be there before the match, but cannot make it in the first 1/2 hour, PM me and I will save your spot. If you do not show within the last 15 minutes prior to 19:00, I will replace you.(click to show/hide)

- If one of the duelers is knocked down during a fight, wait until the person is standing up before resuming.
- No rage quiting. If there is a dispute after a fight, please bring it to me and I will resolve it. Once the winner of a duel has been decided, there will be no whining or complaining in regards
to the outcome.- Please stay out of the holmgang circle unless it is your turn to duel. There is a ring of stones that marks the boundary, any who cross out of turn will be once warned and then kicked. If
you step into the circle in the middle of a fight, you will be kicked.- Combatants will spawn in with the Blue or White Linen Tunic. If you are out of the tournament, you will change to the Red Linen Tunic to show that you are out of the event.
- It is your responsibility to make sure the module is installed/running properly before the event. There will be no do-overs or restarts due to technical or graphical issues on your part.
- Have fun! This is the most important thing. Come with a pleasant attitude and a good axe and sword for an hour or so of epic fighting! There will be administrators on, but we are all seasoned warriors fighting in the spirit of good friendship.

Please send me feedback. I'm always open to suggestions and critiques as long as they benefit the event as a whole. In time we plan to expand this, but for right now it only be one tournament per month.
Much thanks to our Fyrd of Lewes brothers for allowing us their training time to keep Vikingr open to the non event players. This wouldn't have happened without them, so big horn of mead to them.
