WARRIOR SPOTLIGHT
The Wheel of Misfortune: Kolact DM 10
Overview
A contest for Kolact (DM 10) that runs 12 turns (starting turn 889, due 02/03/2020).
Squads will consist of four (4) teams. One (1) team per manager. Participating
managers may not run multiple teams in the arena during the contest.
Premise
Master Darque is fiddling with Chaos Gates again, which creates CHAOS and randomness
during the contest. Turn 1 (Kolact turn 889) and Turn 12 (Kolact turn 900) will be
scored using STANDARD scoring (explained below). Turns 2 through 11 will use a wide
variety of scoring mechanisms and will be randomly determined as the contest
progresses using a random generator. The scoring mechanisms will be posted in Kolact's
newsletter two (2) turns in advance, as well as on the D2 website under the contest
forums.
Entry
Entry into the contest is open to anyone who meets the following criteria:
1) Form a squad. A squad will consist of four (4) managers. No more, no less. This
means there will be NO single manager teams. You must choose a name for your squad.
2) Each manager must declare their intention to participate in the contest BEFORE Turn
1 of The WHEEL OF MISFORTUNE contest (No exceptions will be made). Declarations must
