Delegate Delirium 2019
What is Delegate Delirium all about?
Delegate Delirium is the event that marks Delegates' Day, which occurs on September 9th every year. Delegates' Day seeks to acknowledge and celebrate the hard work of all of TNP's delegates, and recognize their immense contributions to our region.
Delirium is an exciting event, a la March Madness, that pits former TNP delegates against one another to determine who was the very best! Winners are decided via in-game polls, which are open to all nations in the region.
For the first 4 rounds (elimination flights), the top two (out of eleven) will advance into the quarter-finals. The quarter-finals, semi-finals, and finals will be one-on-one, winner-take-all matches to the death!
The ultimate victor will receive a shiny medal, and be declared (honorary) King of TNP! The event will recur every year for Delegates' Day, so if your preferred delegate doesn't win this year, they can try their luck again next time.
Who is eligible to compete?
Excellent question! All individuals who have held the delegacy in TNP are permitted to enter, with three exceptions. First, anyone who has held the delegacy with more than one nation is only allowed one entry. Second, the sitting delegate at the time the competition is held is disqualified, due to their incumbency advantage. Finally, prior winners of the title may not enter in future years, in order to make sure the spoils are spread around.
However, all other former delegates are eligible - even ones who took the delegacy due to a coup!
Who won in previous years?
Below is the list of past winners:
2017: Lord Ravenclaw and McMasterdonia
2018: SillyString
Is there a list of all the delegates somewhere?
There sure is! Check out this handy dandy dispatch for a complete list, including dates and national flags!
