Colosseum and some other Qs (Read 309 times)

[Noel Edelweiss]

1. Normally Colosseum would only host one game at a time. There are 4 matches atm. Are they held at the same time in the same venue (which would be highly unlikely), the same day (which would make sense), or there are not fixed time here? (e.g; 2 days, 7 days, 31 days gap between each event?) Also I noticed "Branches". Does that mean the Colosseum is more complex than a giant stone ring with dirt in the middle?
2. The Bonus thread (social, developmental) is supposed to be different from the matches thread right?
3. How about the act of throwing stuff into the ring? How would it affect the combatants? Or will there be magical barriers preventing spectators from doing so? If there aren't, how severe is the punishment if a PC (or NPC) do this?
4. What happens to any broken weapons? Does the Colosseum staff clean the place up after every match, or would they just pick usable stuff only? Because my character is a hoarder and would definitely stay behind to help in "cleaning" the arena. 
5. Shouldn't it be "Colosseum" instead of "Colloseum"?

1. The matches are performed in the order that they are listed. Namely, Match A occured before matches B and C. B occurs before C and D. Etc. For this tournament matches and branches are synonymous. In a larger tournament a branch would be a segment of the full tournament.

2. If you choose to do a bonus thread, it would be something supplemental to the tournament. Watching from the seats, or taking a walk around the colloseum.

3. Before your character was able to toss anything into the ring, one of the guards would apprehend your character. The colloseum believes in honor and fair fighting, so attempting to ruin that could mean getting tossed out of the building.

4. After each match the weapons will be returned to the rack, and then the rack will be switched out for another. Between rounds the weapons will be switched out as well.

5. There are multiple ways that I have seen it spelled, and several technicallities, so I more or less gave up on using any specific way to spell it.

Must resist... tempting fate...
