Rules Page

Schedule

The following is a loose schedule which may change if extensions are requested for any round. Dates posted are tentative, and are subject to change until finalized on the calendar.

Non-Combat Volunteers

The following players have volunteered to provide medical care and commentary, if either is needed. As always, non-combat volunteers do not have to be on this list in order to take part in the WMAT -- anyone can join in spontaneously at any time.

Neither commentators nor medics are required for your matches, but do come HIGHLY recommended!

  • Second Place: 15,000,000 credits
  • First Place: 20,000,000 credits

• Champion Prizes from The Red Corsairs
  • Bracket A: Berserker's Hellblade: This unholy two-handed sword contains an angry and raging Chaos Daemon, a Bloodletter, which will constantly attempt to make its wielder give in to his rage and commit mindless violence, but only when in use. It is extremely sharp and may produce bursts of flames. (OOC: Upgrade app required!) (Image: [1])
  • Bracket B: Lash of Torment: An animated whip capable of sprouting barbs and executing insane maneuvers on its own. The Chaos Daemon contained within is spiteful, encouraging pain rather than death. Incredibly painful as a weapon, the Lash of Torment can telepathically share its victim's torment and terror with any others within a dozen feet or so of the attack. (OOC: CONSENT REQUIRED. Upgrade app also required!) (Image: [2])
  • Bracket C: Plague Sword: A large one-handed blade which looks as though it is rusty and bleeding infected blood. Those wounded by the blade are infected with dozens of different diseases ranging from mundane to supernaturally powerful, some of which are immediately lethal to non-Elites, and may bring them back as mindless infectious ghouls for a single round before they decay. This sentient Daemon Weapon contains an unusually chill and relaxed Daemon who will mostly tell its wielder being a weapon is the great lazy life. (OOC: CONSENT REQUIRED. Upgrade app also required!) (Image: [3])

• Prizes from MMS
  • All winners will have their pick of WMAT-themed shinki armor and weapons, if desired (upgrade app may be required; please ask Vervi or Fuki for details). Winners will also have their names and records added to the brand new MMS-sponsored WMAT Hall of Fame.
  • The Bracket C champion will also be awarded the rare MMS Type Tentacles shinki. This one's really ready for a fight!
  • Brackets A and B champions will have their pick of other more common shinki models.

• Prizes from ReGenesis
  • A selection of electromagnetic firearms and strong body armor will be made available to all winners. (Upgrade apps may be required; please ask Eryl Fairfax for details.)

• Prizes from Tomoyo's Boutique
  • Third place winners can have their pick of accessories in bronze.
  • Second place winners can have their pick of accessories in silver.
  • First place winners can have their pick of accessories in gold.

• Prizes from Blue Oni Garage
  • Winners are able to customize their own Knight Motorcycle of either the cyborg or organic variant. Features may include combat-ready armor and weaponry. (Upgrade apps may be required; speak to Kotone Yamakawa for details.)

• Prizes from Kaiba Corp.
  • Bracket A Champion: A Duel Disk, a highly advanced piece of technology that lets you play the card game Duel Monsters with super advanced holograms. Safeties are placed on the Duel Disk to prevent it from being used for actual combat, though these might be bypassed (with an upgrade app). Along with it, a Duel Monster's Deck. This deck is themed around penguins. (Contact Kaiba if you want him to make this deck for you so you can play it ICly!)
  • Bracket B Champion: A Duel Disk, a highly advanced piece of technology that lets you play the card game Duel Monsters with super advanced holograms. Safeties are placed on the Duel Disk to prevent it from being used for actual combat, though these might be bypassed (with an upgrade app). Along with it, a Duel Monster's Deck. This deck is themed around spellcasters, and has a number of rare cards within it. (Contact Kaiba if you want him to make this deck for you so you can play it ICly!)
  • Bracket C Champion: A Duel Disk, a highly advanced piece of technology that lets you play the card game Duel Monsters with super advanced holograms. Safeties are placed on the Duel Disk to prevent it from being used for actual combat, though these might be bypassed (with an upgrade app). Along with it, a Duel Monster's Deck. This deck is themed upon dragons, and has a number of rare cards within it. (Contact Kaiba if you want him to make this deck for you so you can play it ICly!)

Participant Awards

As in previous years, the World Tournament Organization is pleased to once again salute and reward the skills of those contenders who risked themselves in the tournament, but did not achieve total victory. Many of our competitors exhibited talents and traits we found noteworthy, and we celebrate their admirable accomplishments today through special trophies voted on by others in the contest. Each recipient of a WMAT Participant Award will be sent their very own engraved trophy announcing their prowess in a given field. These awards and more will be given out during the closing ceremonies.

(OOC Note: No, not all of these categories are very serious. Yes, people may win more than one trophy, and yes, more than one person can win in a particular category.)

• CONSOLATION PRIZE
  • A copy of this year's WMAT Fighting Game, produced by Kaiba Corp. It's a big budget, cutting edge fighting game, with the entire roster of this year's WMAT contenders available in the main character roster! Hidden characters from past WMAT rosters may also be in the game, but are only unlocked after certain achievements have been completed. (Note: If someone doesn't want to appear in this video game, just let me know, and I'll add your name to this list...)
    • Not appearing - (forthcoming)

• THE GOLDEN MIC AWARD
  • Given to the person who either provided the most commentary or commentated matches with a particular zeal, this year we're pleased to award the Golden Mic to KONGOU and RED SABER! Kongou's commentary made each match special, and we're grateful for the number of times she could lend her energy to the WMAT. The same can be said for Red Saber, who often volunteered for commentary at the last minute, saving our contenders some discouragement!
