Notes from the organizer: Get your arms ready (he said to the people sitting at their keyboards) it's Hang Tough! The Contender began at one corner of a big square, and had to swing across, with the help of gymnastics rings dangling from the ceiling, to the Gladiator’s corner, while avoiding the Gladiator themselves, who would pull ye doon that quick like.
I feel this event puts a heavy emphasis on the contender’s patience, so it’s a Numbers Attack you’ll be going for here. If you wait for the right time to swing past the Gladiator and beat them, it’s 10 points. Draw, or lose by ≤15, and it’s 5 points.
rrrrreadyyyyy!
