Ok ladies i thought up an idea called the Archipelago Games. The Crescent Archipelago's version of the GMG, now i know the GMG event is still going on 9slowly in some cases) but not everyone is involved. So i thought for those active and skilled members who aren't involved i'd do this for them to get involved in something big.

Plot
Ok so every few years the nations of the Crescent Archipelago get together and host this huge tournement for their top mages, similar to the GMG but as there are multiple guilds in each nation the teams are made up of those guilds. The tournment is held on an island called the Trial Grounds. It's an old sea volcano that grew enough that the peak was visible on the surface, it's since become inactive with it's crater acting as the arena for the first elimination round.

Rules
The rulesa are simple here's a list. Breaking the rules comes with serious penalties. Such as forefitting the match, losing points, being kicked out of your guild (forced removal) and for using Black Magic possibly execution.
 * No black Magic or illegal spells.
 * No cheating of any kind. Meaning no doing what Flare did in her match against Lucy.
 * No more than the required amount of mages per match. So if it's a 2 on 2 match that means one team can't bring in his/her entire team into the fight.
 * No bribing the ref. Just don't.....
 * No mind control on the ref.
 * No trying to rig the match. No using or getting someone to hide traps, tricks and weapons to aid u in the fight.

Nations
Ok a list of nations for you lot to pick from (note afew are already taken). Note: If you pick the island YOU have to make it as well!
 * Mochina Island (I've got that one)
 * Dragon Sword Island (Lucy D. Chef has that)
 * Hyunga Republic (Damon is making but team is open to enter)
 * Odawara Confederacy (Bombkidbomb has made the island)
 * Yokohama Empire
 * Rising Sun Principality
 * Kageryu Kingdom
 * Drake-Bane Kingdom
 * Gradines Republic
 * Mino Technocracy

Events
Note: These ain't in order (Except for the first event in the list)
 * The Race!: A dash through the islands' crater to a magic lift to the tournement grounds. In this crater though are powerful monster and beasts that will attack the teams, have no fear as a special spell is palced on the teams meaning if they are eliminated they are teleported back to the start to await a end of the event. Lucky only 3 members of the team must get to the lift for them to win.
 * 1-on-1 Fights: The clue is in the name.....
 * Team Fight: A 5 on 5 match.
 * Monster Fight: 1 member of each team must beat a S-class monster in anyway they can while still going by the rules.
 * Capture the Flag: Going back into the crater to capture a set of 3 flags. 1 member of each team goes one at a time to get these flags in the shortest time possible, to make it fair those with spells that increase speed can only use it for 20 seconds (a spell is palced on them that puts the limit on them).
 * Kings/Queens of the Hill: The arena is modified to have a large bomb in the middle. The goal is for one team to dominate the peak of this bumb for as long as possible, now only one member of the team needs to stand there.
 * The Hunt: Back in the crater one member of each team is placed at a random location to be hunted by a group of Dark Mage hunters who specialise in tracking targets through dense and dangerous jungles or forests. The last person not caught or those who reach the magic lift win.
 * The Finals: Always random.

Final words
People involved int he GMG event CAN join if they wish. I don't wanna put too much on your plates but your free to get invovled.
