"Welcome to Beat a Bludger!" Edward called out to the arrivals on the pitch. "Everyone pick a broom and get in the air. Heta on the north side. Brotherhood south." Once everyone was in position and clear that they knew how to play, he called out to start the game. Edward hit out two bludgers, one to a Heta player and another at a Brotherhood player.

  • This game is similar to dodgeball, except played in the air with broomsticks, and every player armed with a beaters bat.
  • Heta one end of the pitch, Brotherhood on the other.
  • Edward will start by hitting out two bludgers. One to a brother and one to a sister, chosen by RNG and @ those players. Both players then have 24 hours to respond and have the opportunity to @ a player on the other team who must also respond in 24 hours and so on, and so on.
  • There will always be a minimum of two bludgers in circulation at any one point and any player not eliminated can be targeted.
  • If you are hit by a bludger and/or miss posting within 24 hours, you are eliminated.
  • Additional bludgers might be introduced further into the game.
  • The team with the fewest players knocked out at the end wins.
  • The game will run for one week, extended in the event of a tie.
  • If it’s a tie, we’ll go into sudden death and the next knockout decides the winner. If no one gets knocked out after a couple of days, then it’s a draw.
When it's your turn:
  • If you’re tagged, you have up to 24 hours to respond. If you don’t reply in time then your character is out of the game.
  • Make it clear in your post who you are targeting and you must @ them.
  • If you don’t want to @ anyone, you can dodge or miss for RP purposes and stay in the game if you still post within 24 hours — just don’t write that you got hit anywhere!
  • If a bludger is missed, it is considered out of play. In that case, Edward will use RNG to send another bludger to a player on the same team.
Rules:
  • IC - all players must have reasonable flying ability. If your character can't fly then Professor Pirrip will not let you play.
  • Bludgers are altered to be less deadly than those used in Quidditch and hurt about the same as being hit by a dodgeball.
  • A school nurse is present, and anyone falling off their broom will be shielded before they hit the ground.
  • OOC - Any major injuries must be discussed with me and approved by admin prior to posting.
  • You are eliminated if you are hit (even brushed) by a bludger or go over the 24 hour marker. No exceptions!

Amory was rather excited to participate in his first Brotherhood even with Heta. He'd missed out on the first few years and honestly that was on him but he was happy to be there now. He was in air as a bludger was smacked into play and it was smacked at him, that dog (pun intended pls laugh) Pirrip aimed at him first. Amory grinned and narrowed his eyes swinging his bat as hard as he could at the incoming ball and aimed his hit at the first girl. Who in this unfortunate situation happened to be a first year with blonde hair. @Astrid Freecss , yikies oh well.

Hope I got the idea right here? Lmk if not and I need to change something :r
 
Ignatius wasn't enthused by this prospect, after all, he dealt with enough bludgers in practice. To deign to subject himself to such cruelty willingly and unnecessarily was foolishness, and far below his station. Of course, then he found out he could actually hit bludgers at people for a change and he was right in. He hadn't had much practice with it, but having watched enough sent the bludger coming towards him flying back towards @Alana Cosgrove who he figured ought to have a taste of her own medicine for a change. Ignatius wondered why the rules couldn't be changed for him to have a bat on the field for Slytherin. He supposed he did still need to catch the snitch, however.
 
Violet wasn't so lucky with the bludger, giving the boys an early advantage. Edward set up another bludger and sent it towards @Susie Lagowski
 
Dang - they lost one already? Susie was so busy thinking about Violet that she almost missed the bludger whizzing toward her. With no time to aim, she simply swung her bat in the general direction of the boys. The bludger hurtled toward @William Potter-Cade.
