You can think that all you want Beth! Reality is hon! My arms with dominate everyone's here.. But I do feel I need a good arm workout, so I'm in

[Ultimate_Body]

Excellent!  We have our Elite Eight!  I'll set up the brackets in the next day or two, and we'll begin this Ego Breaker armwrestling tournament.

If anyone has any requests or suggestions, direct message me pretty quick.

[Dragon_Muscle]

Wow, there's some first rate muscle in this tourney.  I guess that means its up to me to break their egos.  Count me in.

[Ultimate_Body]

Wow, nothing like the last minute to get people motivated!  Ok, we have 12 eligible competitors, so let's get this thing started! Here are the round one brackets for the tourney.

1) Cass
   Vs.
2) Anna

3) Katie
    Vs.
4) Cathy

5) Ultimate
     Vs.
6) Georgie

7) Cindy
     Vs.
Jenna

9) Beth
     Vs.
10) Armwrestlegirl

11) Dragon
     Vs.
12) Kryss

The winners will move on to the next round, and losers take their second rate muscles home.  That's why we call this the ego-breaker tournament.  Just send me the transcript of the match for verification, and may the best muscle win!  (Be sure and download the abandoned barn pic from my first post... that's the setting for my tournament.

I put my name in for this a lot earlier than some others and I’m not included so what’s going on?

[Ultimate_Body]

Farrah,

I'm flattered you keep direct messaging me saying you want to fight me, but this is an armwrestling tournament.  Every time we've tried to role play a contest of strength, you keep trying to turn it into a fight.  With only so many spaces available in the tournament format, I have limited it to women I'm fairly certain can role play an armwrestling match up.  Maybe I'll do a fighting tournament in the future. 

[Armwrestlegirl]

so... what now?

[Ultimate_Body]

We be patient and hope for the best.  Most of the women haven't even logged on to either Trillian of FCF since they volunteered for the tournament.  A couple that have haven't returned my messages.  It will probably go the way of your tourney or Vulcannightbird's.  If the competitors are only logging on one hour a month, the odds of them being online at the same time are vanishingly small. 

But I remain hopeful that there will be a spike in activity once the word reaches the competitors that the tourney is now active.  We'll have to wait and see.

[Dragon_Muscle]

I've been trying to get ahold of Kryss since the schedule was published.  No answer so far.  And we had spoken just the day before, too.

[Fighter_Anna]

And I've been trying to reach Cass.  Hopefully she'll log onto FCF or Trillian and see we're waiting on her.  I'm eager to see if she can back up the talk against REAL muscle.

[Armwrestlegirl]

well please ladies, contact me even besides this tournament!

[Ultimate_Body]

I was hoping a few of the contestants would log in over the holiday weekend.  No such luck.  But I hold out a sliver of hope this tourney will move forwards, as most of the girls entered all at once (literally within a few hours of each other). 

[Armwrestlegirl]

hey ultimate, could u contact me at least? so we can have a little chat about a possible battle?

[Ultimate_Body]

Christina,

I can appreciate your enthusiasm, but I have already published the schedule above.

[Fighter_Anna]

Hmmm.  Cass logged into FCF this morning, but did not respond to either my FCF or Trillian messages.  Bummer.  I was hoping to find out if her reputation is really all that.
