A friendly message for the admins

Hi!
I would like to contact your admins for informing them that EK is organizing a tournament for all duel academies!
Every academy admin can register and after confirming from 1 to 10 students (or even administrators) register them in our tournament!
We are not a Duel Academy so we are not interested to get your students!
We promise a fair tournament where our only objective is to determine The Academy Of The Month, no cheats from none and respect for everyone!
We think that is in our both parts interest to join this tournament! We also offer free publicity for every academy which joins and a special spot for the winner and his academy!
Our tournaments are organized every month!
Since this is our first event we encourage you to tell other academies about the event so the tournament will be more attractive.
For more info visit our page EK World Tournament!

Wish you all best!

Up to now there are 6 registered academies and there might be 8 by the deadline 22 August!

A lot of people worry about duel times, but we insist that there wont be such a problem!

Every duel time will be arranged based on both players GMT so they wont have a hard life about this!

You can pm me on this forum for any of your decisions yes or no!

I wish you can join! The deadline is 22 August! For any questions pm me here I will check at least twice a day for your response!

Well I would love for my academy to take part in this, so I will be moving this over here:

And I we will see how people respond ^_^
And I made this a GLOBAL ANNOUNCEMENT

ok great! If you menage to get at least 5 people that would be great!

Ok so I am calling all of my academy members, both tested and un-tested.
We will not be joining the August tournament, but that is ok because we WILL be joining the September Tournament. And we will be victorious
So what you need to do is as followed:
MAKE YOUR BEST DECK AND BE PREPARED TO KICK BUTT AND TAKE NAMES!
So remember we will be in the September tourny so make a good deck

Don't get too pumped up about this tournament, no banlist and no banned decks means everyone will just spam overpowered decks/cards. As much as I'd like to use some of those cards, I'm afraid I will not enter if there is no banlist and specific deck rules.

I'd like to join but I'll only be able to use DMG... so if that's ok with them, i'll join but if not...well you get some you lose some

Hi people! I got the message that you want a banned card list! Well if there is going to be any (I will make a poll for that, where you also can vote) there will be the official KONAMI banned list! Is this OK for you?

I just didn't wanted a banned list so people will easily express themself!

@E-Dragon Paladin
The problem without a list of banned cards is that everyone will be using the same overpowered cards, imagine everyone using 3*Pot Of Greed and all the Envoys, not to mention Destiny Hero - Disk Commander to use the perfect circle. Konami made their banlist for a good reason.
Also I'd like to suggest a list of banned decks, especially (Quick)Burn, Exodia FTK/OTK,...etc. My guess is that your tournament is to test the skills of duelists, which you can't do without these criteria, in my opinion.

Well I thought about this and yes there will be a banned list, not because I like it a lot as idea but a lot of other people asked for it and so we are adding the KONAMI actual banned list! (Since our site follows the OFFICIAL RULEBOOK THAN WE SHOULD ALSO FOLLOW OFFICIAL BANNED LIST)

Yeah I suggest we only use the Official Banned list.. and the rest is a free for all (meaning metas, burns, etc, etc are allowed)

@Pepito
Meh, burn is toooo cheap a deck, it's even banned in most official tournaments if I'm not mistaken

Yeah but I only care about going with the official banned list. Because trust me I HATE and I am AGAINST burn decks but I just think of it this way "use it to challenge yourself. Besides that is why you always have a good side deck that can help against a burn deck.

I was gonna say...is there even an online yugioh game out there that DOES NOT have a banned list? I think there's none so it is implied that there is a banned list...besides, remember this deck?
