All the Yomis!
Quince’s mirror mashup maybe?
I keep waiting for @snoc to come up for air and run the next mirror match tournament… but maybe I’ll run Mixed Mirror Mayhem in the meantime. (Now I’ve got a name… definitely need to run it)
Ok, I think I’m going to start trying to start one tournament a month, on a regularish date. Next up is June 16, when I’ll be starting Mirror Match Mayhem (expect a signup post shortly).
For July, I’m opening up the format to the viewing public:
- A Balanced Clash
- Persephone’s Pick Your Poison
- Mirror Match Mayhem
- Yomi Crunch (Fast Timer)
- Lum’s Long Odds
- Lum’s Lucky Lottery
- Fantasy Strike-style (3 or 4 character stable, declared at the beginning of the tournament, each match is random selection from characters that you haven’t won with yet)
- Round and Round It Goes ([Yomi] Tournaments ideas sharing - #25 by ArthurWynne)
- Take This Challenge ([Yomi] Tournaments ideas sharing - #2 by MR75)
0 voters
Voting on this will close on June 16 (at which point I’ll close the signup thread for June, and open a thread for July)
For my own reference:

This is for November, right? Since October is Round and Round?
Yup. Edited for clarity.
And we’re off on another tournament, so it’s time to plan the next one. November will be a standard 20XX counterpick tournament. And, for December, we have an exciting new option! @mysticjuicer has agreed to let me offer up 19XX: Titan 5 as on option for an upcoming tournament!

By nearly-unanimous decision (5 of 7 voters), we’re doing a Fast Timer tournament in January to ring in the new year.
Here’s the poll for February, and then I’m planning to start IYL in March!

I’ve launched February’s tournament. March won’t have a new tournament, because we’ll be starting IYL instead! April might, depending on how hungry folks are.
Is there any chance of bringing back the Solo Showdown, or something like it?
(That would be a tournament where everyone picks one character at the start of the tournament, and no switching is allowed -you have to stay on your choice through all your matches. Some bans might be in order.)
Yeah, happy to add it to the list.
