Player note

This game is strictly a side trek adventure. This means a DM will email or IM someone to complete their round of the tournament at random times that is suitable to both parties. Do not IM or email the DMs about your turn in the tournament unless they do so first. Every round of the tournament will be scheduled and not done just because a DM happens to be online not DMing something.
