FW: Tournaments

[Koch, KA Kimberly 4384]

Amra "corrected" Earl Sir Kein by saying the good knight was redundant in
stating he liked "snowball lists and melees".  Well to speak on behalf of my
brother it is Amra who needs the correction.  A "snowball melee" is a 
tourney
wherein the first round has two fighters with the winner of that fight
becoming the captain of that team.  The next round those two fighters face
another team of two fighters, the losers join the winners....and on and on
until there are just two teams to fight a grand melee at the end.

A "melee" is any number of more than two all fighting at once.  A "snowball"
is just one type and a fairly unique type of melee hence the separate use of
the term.
