Battle of the Ages!!!! - New Side Tournament

Nikon AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR

06/19/2008 08:15:13 PM · #1

Alright so I came up with this idea a couple of weeks ago but I didn't wanna make a thread about it until I had completed school and my last exam, which I did today ($%#^ YEAH!). After the DPC Olympics was finished I didn't think there would be another side tournament for a while, so I wanted to create one more this year. Anyways the concept of this new tournament is to have different teams set up based on your age group. I haven't worked out the details and the format of how this tournament will function as last time people were constantly complaining about how it was set up. Also I don't wanna get into details until I know how many people wanna participate. The Age Groups that I am currently think of are:

24 and under:

No, see, he said to put him down for being 55. So I insulted him.

Anyone?
