The gem quest which has seemed to last forever is drawing to a close! I will be running the finals of the Ruby Gem Quest this coming Saturday (17th) at midnight by the Avalon clock. (That is as Sat becomes Sunday)

This gem quest encompasses one on one battle to determine the best warrior in Avalon. According to the results of the previous rounds, the following people are still contenders for this quest: Xandamere, Zirnath, Buttons, Flogga, Culinane, Panaideos,

Tryn, Sturge, Criamulus, Haplo, Sparky, Kes, and Horizon.

These people will have until midnight Wednesday to msg me saying they wish to continue competing for the gem. If they do not, the next best fighter from their last fight will be appointed. If the alternate does not wish to continue, another will be ch

osen, etc.

In order to speed the process along, the organization of rounds will be altered slightly from the requirement that you fight each person in your group one on one in order to advance. As I understand it, the previous rounds were run by the first person

to ship another. However, as I am told one battle ran about 5 hours, there may be a time limit placed on the rounds.

This is all subject to some alteration over the next week as the quality of the field becomes clearer.

Any questions may be addressed to me.
