The tournament will be a best 2 out of 3 single-elimination tournament.  To determine the bouts the first person will roll dice and then everyone will take turns rolling till they get a matching number to the first roller.  

The next unmatched roller will roll and the match ups will proceed till all fighters are paired.  Once that is completed the first pair will roll again to find out what their weapon will be for their bout.   

The prize will be a bottle of Mead and the die used to determine with bouts in the tournament.  You will get to keep the die for the year and then bring it back to next Midwinter's Feast.
