Ok as you may have known the tourny has been called off by Bit. Note that it has always been Bit's tourny, i have had nothing to do with it. There are many reasons for it being called off, but the main one was that it was too much of a commitment for the Rabbit and also the fact that it wasn't made official sorta pissed him off ^^. But don't worry, if you're craving for a tournament then hang in there! THe second TAO official tournament will be starting VERY soon! =).

Alright....this is bad news well fer some anyway i guess. Due to new circumstances in my life I guess I won't be able to play TAO much anymore. Most of the time I will only be able to get online late late at nite Aussie time so most people will miss me when I'm on. However, i will still be working on the fan site, organising tounaments and be in the forums every now and again so im not lost yet! Anywho, to any who will not see me at all for the next year good luck and if TAO is still online then which it should be I will be back! (And expecting a large banquet ;)) If you want to contact me its betta you contact me through this email address : merforga@hotmail.com. Please don't spam it. It only has 50% space left in it. Cheers.
    Oh yes and will you all please stop asking me about the team tourny -_-. Its Bit's tourny. I have no hand in it.

    Well its nearly the new year! And it's nearly the end of the tourny. The inactives in the tourny have been eliminate automatically. There are only a couple of days left till the tourny ends so keep playing those games to avoid on missing out on a spot in the top 3!
    Note that there can be only one person in first place, there can be as many second and third placers as possible but only one first place. If more than one person ties for first place then they will play against each other to determine who is first. Other than that, enjoy the end of year holidays while they last!
    The tournament has also been shortened by one day
    Also for those of you who don't know, there is an area in the SG forums for non-SG players. So drop by and leave a message if you need to contact us on anything. Note that you can't sign up to be a memnber. Thats only for SG members.

    Wow! The tournament is at a very exciting stage now! Cyrus and Cordo are neck and neck at 71 points a piece, however, they both have one game yet to play! Who will play next? Keep looking for updates! Also, Bushido is sneaking up from nowhere. Undefeated and an average game win of 6 points at least, Cordo and Cyrus better watch out!

Because of constant complaints that I suck and the threats on my life, I edited the "You know you've played too much TAO when" joke. If you dont like it, read the text after the joke.

    What You Have To Look Foward To In The Future
  • A TAO personality Test
  • A TAO test too see how much you know about TAO
  • A "Tips" document in the Strategy section
  • 12 Days of Christmas the TAO version
  • A Team Tourney with a prize of 500points to the winner

However the current address will be the same, ie http://bittaosmerf.tk. Also, the guestbook's links have yet to be updated. If anyone sees mrfluffy around could you please tell him to email me. So if you are going to the guestbook, you will have to use the back button or reload the page as the links on the guestbook page are to the old server, and you will get the old pages.

    Ok, tournament spots are being taken up like wildfire! In just one day, the tournament is nearly full! There are only 30 spots left so hurry up and apply! Just click on the banner above.This is very good response! In future I plane to have different divisions with different rules so that anyone can play without fear of the tournament being full. I will post all neccessary information on the site soon. Next week I will have assessments so there might be one or two days where the site will not be going anywhere and I apologise in advance.
    I also fixed a MAJOR typo regarding unit usage in the tournament. YES you may use one enchantress. I can't believe I left her out -_-.
