Marketon Joust: Round 1 Groups G and H

[Tiermann]

And his opponent Baron Roderick Blackthorn

[Tiermann]

Oh, it looks like Sir Christoph dropped his shield badly on this run,  he manages a shield hit, but Baron Blackthorn gets a good hit to Sir Christoph’s shoulder.

2 points for Baron Blackthorn and 1 point Sir Christoph

[Tiermann]

And it looks like just the opponsite this run, with the Baron dropping his shield too low and getting hit on the arm while only managing a shield hit off of Sir Christoph.

That ties the score at 3-3

[Tiermann]

Both of them manage to keep their shield up this time, but it looks pretty close in both cases

A point for each keeps it tied at 4-4

[Tiermann]

They’ve both got their shield up high this run but Baron Blackthorn manages to still get above Sir Christoph’s scoring a shoulder hit and 2 points to Sir Christoph’s one point shield hit.

That gives the point advantage to Baron Roderick Blackthron, and the win of the match 6-5

[Tiermann]

In Group G we had wins by Sir Wolfram and the unexpected win by Angeir the Viking

And in Group H the wins went to Lord Etir Sayest and Baron Roderick Blackthorn.

And that concludes the first day of competition here at Marketon

There are still 2 more rounds to go before we get to the elimination brackets, who ends up with enough wins to make it into the elimination is still very much undecided. There were some great performances today out on the Tilting Ground, and I’m sure we can look forward to even more tomorrow.

Thanks for joining us, and see you all tomorrow!

Krull! Krull! Krull! Krull!

[Giorginetto]

While i was reading this round with great anxiety , someone came in my office told her to go away and come back in 10  . This is soooooooooooo exciting. Some unexpected developments so far with the previous champion off from the start ( might be too much ale ??) and Arngeir the Viking making a surprisingly good start , clearly the big underdog of the tournament. This tournament has already had a lot of surprises indeed !!!! 

[Gis]

An unfortunate start for Sir Seamus indeed. Are the Viking Florists sponsors of the event or just the Viking from Krull *grin*
