(US-H Madoran) "Let it Snow!" Tournament

Hello again everyone! It's getting a wee bit nippy up in the north here! Okay, I'm not *that* far north, but y'know.... Anyhoo, I think it's time to get planning a pet tournament to get in the spirit of winter and all that.

When: Saturday November 30th, 7pm server time.
Where: Somewhere snowy. Likely Mount Neverest, or Stormpeaks, but I'm open to other suggestions!
Who: Open to anyone in <Warcraftpets> that is level 10+. Entrants from <Magical Menagerie> will be accepted also if someone can be available that night to hand out their prizes.(Thanks Bloody!)
What: A tournament, silly! Oh, right..... Level 25 pets, no team switching between battles, Single elimination if over 16 people come, double elimination if it's fewer than that, the usuals.

The Pets
- Anything that lives in snowy climates, eg: [pet]Arctic Fox Kit[/pet], [pet]Arctic Hare[/pet], [pet]Snow Cub[/pet], [pet]Tundra Penguin[/pet], [pet]Baby Blizzard Bear[/pet], etc. Yes, I'll allow the [pet]Snowy Panda[/pet]
- Anything white or light grey, eg: [pet]Moon Moon[/pet], [pet]Tranquil Mechanical Yeti[/pet], [pet]Summit Kid[/pet], [pet]Tiny White Carp[/pet], [pet]Fiendish Imp[/pet], [pet]Skywisp Moth[/pet] etc. So long as it's at least a quarter or so white or light grey, it's all good, such as [pet]Zao, Calfling of Niuzao[/pet] or [pet]Gooey Sha-ling[/pet].
- If it's on the icyer side of blue, I'll allow that too, such as [pet]Xu-Fu, Cub of Xuen[/pet], [pet]Arcane Eye[/pet], [pet]Spectral Porcupette[/pet], [pet]Lost of Lordaeron[/pet], [pet]Pandaren Air Spirit[/pet] etc. And sure, [pet]Azure Whelpling[/pet], [pet]Celestial Dragon[/pet], [pet]Nexus Whelpling[/pet] and [pet]Lil' Tarecgosa[/pet] too, I'm sure someone will ask about those ;)
- No, I don't want to hear "Yellow too! Yellow snow!" we're not going there.... >.<
- Anything that is made of cold stuff, eg [pet]Frigid Frostling[/pet], [pet]Tiny Snowman[/pet]
- [pet]Alterac Brew-Pup[/pet]. How could I *not* allow a pet that exists to save people lost on the snowy mountains?
EXTRAS:
- Water Waveling is allowed, it's a water/ice elemental, close enough.


***Edit*** Lil KT, Mr Bigglesworth, and Frosty have all been given official approval later in the thread. :)
***Edit #2*** [pet]Nether Faerie Dragon[/pet] has been given official approval too, as it is icy blue in my books.
***Edit #3*** Alterac Brew-Pup added to the list!
***Edit #4*** Water Waveling is allowed
***Edit #5*** Ominous Flame and Silver Dragonhawk Hatchling are good.

There will be a separate Winter Veil tournament towards the end of December, so the other event pets from that, like rocket bots and elves aren't included here. As always, if you have any questions or suggestions let me know!

Watch out where the huskies go and don't you eat that yellow snow. :)

I should be there for Magical Menagerie to hand out pets. So MM get loud, get proud and level up those pets.

I'll put something on the calendar.

Okey doke, thanks much Bloody!

Sorry it's less of a definitive list, and more of a guideline. It makes it a bit harder to plan your teams I know, but at the same time, if you have fewer 25s it makes should be a bit easier to find something to fit.

I actually have been using a team called "Let it Snow" for a bit now. But it has an Elf.. Need to regroup.

What about Frosty, Mr. Bigglesworth, and Lil' KT? They've got lots of frost abilities.

@Shade: The frost abilities seem like non-issue, imo, they do sound like they fit the appearance requirements, though.

If MM will be able to enter, I will do my best to be there. /cough That is to say, I will try not to exhaust myself at work and then sleep through the night.

If nothing else I'd take those 3 on "lives in cold places" alone. They would also meet the colour list requirements I'd say, so double all good there!

And yup! Bloody has offered to come that night to dole out your prizes etc, so MM, it's on!

I am going to try to be online for the tournament as it sounds like fun. Will have to think about my team. My Saturday schedules tend to vary. Character is Potpourri of Magical Menagerie.

Will the new Alterac Brew-Pup be allowed?

Sure! He's from somewhere cold and a fair bit of white, I'll allow him.

Yup! Especially the Lost of Lordaeron, he's very icy blue (and already on the list as an example).

It will likely be changing on the solstice (Dec 21st.) I don't think we'll allow it this time, but it will definitely be in any Christmas/holiday tournaments I run.

So for some reason, most of my posts (including the ones on this thread) suddenly disappeared. Just restating that I'm in.

Also, a couple quick legality checks: Silver Dragonhawk Hatchling? Ominous Flame?

Thanks.
