Posted: Fri Dec 10, 2010 3:34 pm
The duration of each event is expected to be approximately 1 hour. It will take some time for me to prepare for the game and coordinate schedules with contestants for each UOSA Super Jeopardy! game. Please be patient and I will update here as things get sorted out; changes in red.
Date: TBD (Multiple Dates, will list here)
Once I get 3 contestants I will announce the date of the next Jeopardy match.
Place: TBD (Got a place?)
Special Thanks: None at this time.
Rules:

Must cast Buzz (Harm but no target) to Answer within 5 seconds
- If you need a harm scroll let me know. I will provide to you for free.
- Casting other spells will result in a 3 second penalty.
- 15 seconds to answer the question, if you need extra time due to a slow typing speed let me know in advance (30 seconds max). The questions (responses) are relatively short and should all be formulated properly as a question. e.g. What is ______? Who is _____? etc.
