Then, these three witches or wizards take part in three highly different challenges. [...] the other 3 champions, will play Three 4-player games amongst each other, each game representing one of the three challenges.

What maps, game types, orders, cards, and forts will be used for the 4-player games? Hopefully some complex maps like Age of merchants, Siege!, and/or Space.

points will be given according to what place these four players come in.
The player with the highest points after these 3 games will be dubbed the "Triwizard Cup Champion"!

How do the points work?

The preliminary 6 player round will be classic/seq/unlim/flat rate.

After that, three challenges will each be a different map. I'm thinking of Ireland for challenge one (the dragons one), Carribean Islands for challenge two (the underwater one), and Siege! for challenge three ( the maze one)
however, if anyone has any opinions on better choices for these maps, please let me know.

I've had some fun games on Ireland and the Caribbean, but maybe replace Caribbean with Age of merchants? That map is amazing.

As long as we don't have to play crossword, circus maximus (especially that new tiny area image), or chinese checkers, I'm happy.

I don't recall that the challengers in the tournament in the book were allowed to pick what they were going to do and that they usually didn't know what was about to happen until right before. So for those reasons I'd prefer to be kept in the dark as much as possible.

Wonderful Idea.

Oh and the Points will go as such:

First place will recieve 90 points
Second Place will recieve 75 points
Third Place will recieve 65 points
Fourth Place will recieve 50 points.

All the passwords have been PMed to all the players, so the games should be filling up soon. Good luck to everyone!

I pmed Hellfish, and he pmed me back saying he'd join the game. He hasn't yet, so I've PMed one more time, If i dont get a response soon ill give isodice the final spot in hogwarts as he is the first on the reserves list.

The First Challenge!

After the Goblet of Fire had chosen the champions, Vykingsfan64 from BeauxBatons, Ghost_Rider from Durmstrang, and LSU Tiger Josh along with Paintball_Rat from Hogwarts, everyone was ready for the first challenge. Congratulations to all the champions.

I've pmed all four champions with the password for the first game. The specs are as follows: British Isles map, Seq/Flat/Unlimited.

First place will recieve 90 points
Second Place will recieve 75 points
Third Place will recieve 65 points
Fourth Place will recieve 50 points.

Also, I'll be gone for the next 10 days, so hopefully you guys will have finished this game by the time i get back so i can start the second challenge then

Best of luck to you four, and to the rest of the people who were eliminated, try to cheer on your champion at some point in the game.

The pw I received didn't work

If your passwords don't work add an "s" to the end to make it plural. The singular form doesn't work.
