Let the countdown begin!

Last year's tournament was a beauty, culminating in a victory by heavyweight Gondolin over their old friends from Vinyamar. There were many exciting moments along the way, such as Bywater qualifying over Thangorodrim, and Norbury upsetting Valimar, and we hope that this year's tournament will prove just as interesting.

In the 2010 Phantasy contest, Boro won three of the final four rounds to shoot past the field and claim the victory. Will he repeat? Or will Gwath or Skip become the first to add a second Phantasy trophy to their cases? Or will it be someone entirely new? Perhaps you!

There are rumors of major roster shake-ups this year, and our top reporters will be on the case to tell you all about it. This year is shaping up to be even more entertaining than last, but the only sure way to guarantee fun is to get as many people playing as possible!

The participants the last couple years were-
Boro
Eomer
Eonwe
Fea/Ni
Glirdan
Gwath
Hakon
Lari
McCaber
Morm
Nerwen
Nogrod
Sally
Shasta
Skip
TGEW
Wilwa

We'd love to have all of you back, and we'd also love to see a few new faces! Tell your friends! Tell your enemies! Tell those people that you don't really talk to!

Nog & Boro plan to be with us again, providing their thrilling match reports and expert editorials on behalf of Arda Kicker Magazine (AKM), Middle Earth Sports Programing Network (MESPN), and The Two Towers Network (TTN), but as always new writers are welcome. Please let me know if you'd like to write a match report, and of course you're always welcome to provide your own analysis as the tournament rolls along.

The teams and rosters will be released in the coming days, and the Phantasy Competition thread will start soon after that. That is where you will pick players for your team and make trades and such.
