My high turn was 109, not 119. TDO had a 117 but doesn’t count towards consolation prize.

Did anyone else have more than 109?

Okay - here is a reprint of the prize selection of the contest.

Devil Advocates - Wins first 3 choices and all the rollup certs
Segue Cartel - Wins choices 4 and 5
World Blades 4 - Wins choice 6
Death By Design - Wins choice 7

What do I win if I win this contest?
1.) The winner wins all of the rollup certificates given as entry fee for the contest. In addition, the winner gets to pick 3 of the prizes below.
2.) The runner up gets to pick 2 of the prizes below.
3.) The honorable contender gets to pick one of the prizes below.
In addition, all competitors in the contest who run all 13 turns and at least 62 total fights will earn a potion of +1 bonus, which must be used on a warrior who participated at least 1 fight in the contest.
Also, the team that scores the most points on any one turn of the contest (other than the winner, runner up or honorable contender) can pick one prize that was NOT selected by those three.

Prize Pool:
Once a prize is picked it is removed from the pool.
1.) Limited stat switch (You can swap any 2 stats you want on an Arvat replacement rollup that you receive within the next 6 month)
2.) Extra replacements (Next time you get a replacement (or whenever you want within 6 months) in Arvat you can ask RSI for 5 additional replacements and select the best one for your team)
3.) Limited damage bump (You can pick one warrior on your Arvat team to move up one damage class – as long as he remains in-bounds for his ST/SZ stats)
4.) Favorite weapon knowledge (You learn the favorite weapon of one of your Arvat warriors – must be on the team during the contest)
5.) Favorite rhythm knowledge (You learn the favorite offensive effort and activity level of one of your Arvat warriors, who most have been on your team during the contest.)
6.) Shrinking potion (You get to take 3 points of size away from an Arvat replacement during the next 6 months and add the 3 points to another stat – both SZ and the other stat must remain in bounds)
7.) Extra skills (Any one of your warriors in Arvat learns 3 extra skills of your choice (no more than 2 can be in the same area and must be in bounds)
8.) Extra train (Any one of your Arvat warriors gets an extra stat train in the area of your choice – and must be in bounds)
9.) Limited protection from death (Pick one of your Arvat warriors and for 5 turns from application of this prize, that warrior will come back from the dead if he dies in the arena. No DAing and no tourneys)

All prizes must be applied within 6 months from the end of the tournament, must be on Arvat warriors from the team that participated in the contest and all prize results must be in bounds.
