Metanet Grand Diablo Warzone Combat Tournament Extremathon 1
Today I was playing Diablo 2, and it made me want to start a dueling contest within the Metanet community. I know there are plenty of Diablo 2 players around, but other than a few stretches, we have not connected much playing Diablo 2. So after debating with Sept for a while on rules and what not, we decided to start a tournament. A start date and time will be decided after I see how many fighters we have. The tournament will be Swiss style, you duel one person each round, and are paired up with people who have similar records as yours.

- - Rules - -
1. Tournament will be played in a swiss style, seeding for round one will be random.
2. Tournament will take place on US (East).
3. Each round will be played at or below a certain level. Round 1 is at or below level 12, each round will increase by increments of 12. (12, 24, 36, 48, 60)
4. Each round will take place 2 weeks after the previous.
5. You must use the same character each round! This is to promote strategy in your skill point usage.
6. Each round will have a skill points usage maximum to account for the quest skill points. There is no minimum for each round.
7. You must use gear that your specific character found, no trading, no making runs with other characters. This is obviously going to have to be an honesty thing.
8. The only potions allowed during duels are mana. No thawing or antidote potions before hand or during either.
9. Things in the environment are free for use, such as wells and shrines. Picking up potions from dead demons is not allowed.
10. Each round will take place in Act 1 Normal Mode. One Player starting from the Cold Plains, and one from Town.
11. If you run for town, you lose.
12. If you level up past the limit during a duel, you lose. Be careful of killing stray demons!
13. You need to get a screen-shot of your kill.

I've pretty much decided that the winner will get a prize, but so will the most interesting build. I'm also debating on giving the most interesting kill a prize. What the prizes are has not been decided, have any ideas? Share them here.
