User blog:BuriedMemory/Ame's Chūnin Exams: Phase 3 - The Finals

Hello everyone! Despite my efforts, phase 2 has ground to a halt. I'm afraid that any effort I make to encourage users to post to continue the event will fail due to a lack of persistent interest. With that in mind, I'd like to announce the participants for the finals of the Amegakure Chūnin Exams.

The events that proceeded from phase 2 will be summarized and explained, rather than being full-blown roleplays, and in this way the City of Death will reach a conclusion.

My biggest criteria for who participates in the finals comes down to how consistently a user participated in the second phase. Users that I feel put forward a consistent and dedicated effort will be first on my list.

The 8 Finalists

 * Yumiko, Green, Archery (Wind), Amegakure (Cherry)
 * Zanzou, Chix, Chakra Flow, Getsugakure (Chix)
 * Minobu Tetsuhara, Dal, Puppetry (Water), Getsugakure (Chix)
 * Kiritsu Taisei, Nari, Ninjutsu (Wind), Getsugakure (Chix)
 * Meikyou Shisui, Mem, Infiltration/Ninjutsu, Oda Genji
 * Iris Senju, Sigma, Crystal Release, Iwagakure (Sigma)
 * Arahitogami, Beserk, Hiden - Insects, Iwagakure (Waterkai)
 * Aimi Kataihyouhi, Dal, Skin Hiden, Takigakure

If you would like to withdraw your character from the finals, please let me know in advance, to avoid mismatching.

I'll post the guidlelines for the finals in a few days. It won't be as restrictive as the second phase in regards to action limits, and will basically be freeform within reason. If you have special requests as to who you wish to be paired off against in the first round of the finals, please post them here.
