Grindstone #142 draws to a close and it's only 1:14AM?! What in the world?!

49 people! Tons of RP! An extremely dramatic finale with ties, rolls won and lost by single digits, and a rapid-fire knock-down drag-out rolling-around slugfest to settle Elatus Shadeflare as our new champion!

And so the final bit of gil scrounged together is spent at Grindstone #143. 53 fighters fought for three and a half hours, until we had YET ANOTHER newcomer show up and win the whole damned thing!

Congratulations and welcome to Mithra Thorne!

Don't forget! NEXT WEEK is the Grindstone Special IV. There's a thread for it located right here so check it out! There's a special offer in the works for anyone looking for some... advantages in the future. It should be a ton of fun!

GRINDSTONE #144! We're well into Legendary Pokemon numbers now, and tonight's outing saw 51 diligent fighters pop out to Thanalan for our regular party! Once all was said and done, we crowned a new winner with a new top prize and ushered in the new Grindstone Era post-Special IV.

Congratulations to Amelia Ashford on her well-fought victory!

Grindstone 145 is done and in the books! 56 total fighters on a busy Saturday night came out to beat each other up for fame and glory and money, and in the end one man walked away with at least one of those things! Another case of a first timer clearing the house, to boot!

Congratulations to Rei Wakeflame on his victory!

TONIGHT. GRINDSTONE NUMBER DRATINI!

61 fighters! 4 hours! AND WE SAW THE REDEMPTION OF THE WHETSTONE to produce an extra climatic finale!

After all was said and done, though, Decima van Balventius was our winner!

...I guess we're a terrorist cell now!

RE: The Grindstone - Saturdays at 10 PM EST (9 PM Central) - Warren Castille - 07-24-2016

And that's Grindstone #147 in the books! 48 competitors came out to make our Saturday night loud and bloody (just the way we like it) and after three hours of rolling dice, we ended up with a new winner (after the last champ succumbed to the good ol' Champion's Curse!)

Congratulations to the entity controlling Jango Wazango!

Grindstone #150: Mewtwo Edition!

63 fighters came out on a sweltering Saturday night to roll dice, and dice were rolled! After almost four hours of roleplay we came away with a new champion, Denz De'bayle!

RE: The Grindstone - Saturdays at 10 PM EST (9 PM Central) - Warren Castille - 08-21-2016

Grindstone #151 is in the books! A year-low of 40 fighters showed up to do battle in the sand, and in a neat turn of events we had a repeat, sort of, in our champion!

Congratulations to Armont De'bayle on winning tonight, the follow-up to his brother's victory last week!

RE: The Grindstone - Saturdays at 10 PM EST (9 PM Central) - Warren Castille - 08-28-2016

Grindstone #152 is in the books! We had a whopping 68 fighters out in the sun and sand to bleed each other a little bit, and we crowned a two-time new one time champion in Gegeruza Xixiruza! After weeks of showing up and scratching out, the sullen lalafell takes away the win.

LALAFELL ARE HARD TO GET PICTURES OF, OKAY?

Apologies for not bumping this last night (this morning?) when the Grindstone ended! It was a tad late and since putting my computer back together, my screenshots seem to be not saving in the right place and I had to figure that out. Without further ado...

The newest winner of the Grindstone is Arylisse Dayhelm! Here's a screenshot right at the conclusion of the final round!

And here's a screenshot of what 44 people all fighting in a cluster looks like. War is hell!

IT'S NEARLY 4AM.

WE STARTED ON TIME.

THE WINNER IS WILBEHRT IRVING.

Look forward to time limits on posts being conjured up when I redo the rules once the lore book destroys the "no aether" concept!

Congratulations to last night's winner and defeater of 58 other competitors (and countless spectators' appetites!) Friar Tdore!

Grindstoone! We're all wrapped up at 1:22AM and that feels really odd. It was a good night for NR-RP though, as two of their members took to the final round to crown a new champion! In the end it was Serihilda Storme displacing former champ Gegeruza for the victory.
