The Royal Britannia Summoner's Sprints Brought to you by the Village of Paws and the Citizens of Stormhold Wednesday, February 19th at 10:00pm est (9:00cst, 7:00pst) The Summoner's Sprints will take place at the newly refurbished Royal Britannia Race Track located in the fields of the Crimson Plains east of Britain. Two man teams consisting of a summoner and a sprinter will compete to see which team's sprinter will cross the finish line first. Registration will begin at 10:00pm est and will continue until the the last qualifying race. Summoner's should bring plenty of blood moss and garlic. The Rules: Each Summoner's Sprint will consist of as many as 6 competing teams running a 10 lap course. Teams will enter the track un-mounted. At the beginning of each race sprinters will report to the starting line, west of the glowing runes. Summoner's will enter the infield where they will stay for the duration of the race. Each team will wait for the official starting wall to drop before running or casting. Summoners will be limited to casting wall of stone and agility. Sprinters may cast clumsy and use refresh potions. No footstools or other blocking items will be permitted in any race. Multiple qualifying races will be run based on the amount of racers present. Participants may compete in multiple qualifying heats with preference given to racers that have yet to qualify. Participants may freely change positions and partners during qualifying heats. To qualify participants must place 1st, 2nd or 3rd in their respective position. During qualifications each sprinter will notify the official with the name of their summoner. At the end of qualifications each team must register the names of the qualified sprinter and summoner with the official. Depending on the amount of racers we may run two or three semi-final races. Placement in the semi-finals will be based on qualifying performance. The top teams from each semi-final will advance to the finals. All rules are subject to change at the official's whim. First place will be awarded 40k and a trophy. Second place will be awarded 20k and a trophy. Third place will be awarded 10k and a trophy.
