Round 1 of the round table battles is over and, wow, we really have a contest on our hands! Almost all of the the 12 entries were on heroic difficulty and there is very little separating most of them. A group of Chinese players from "gamerhome" seem to have done particularly well, although our current leader is one Mr. Fisher who completed Fury of the Elements in just 15 days - and I have the screenshot to prove it! Full round 1 scores can be found on the contest page

Anyway, round 2 has now started. The map is Into the Tundra which looks to be a pretty good medium sized map. I'll probably give players about 3 weeks to complete this. I have decided to change the rules of the contest a little - if you haven't entered yet you can still enter by submitting a score for fury of the elements, but you do so at a 25% penalty which means you'll have to to extra well on the later maps to make up the difference. Hope everyone enjoys the map and get your scores in.

Update: Apologies for the numerous errors which slipped through and thanks to participants for pointing them out. The winner was actually "Khan" who completed the map in 19 days. The score chart should now be properly updated.
