Walker's Tongue tournament

I've changed the way Walker's Tongue is coded, allowing people to challenge anybody to a match anywhere anytime! Get some practice in before the event in a few hour's time.

Syntax:
WALKER CHALLENGE <target>
Challenge someone to a match of Walker's Tongue. Whoever you challenge will get the first turn.

WALKER ACCEPT
Accept a challenge.

SAY <letter>, e.g. say h
On your turn, pick a letter to add the beginning of the word you and your opponent are constructing.

SAY The Walker's got your tongue!
or
WALKER (by itself)
On your turn, challenge your opponent's construction of the word. This brings the challenge to an end. Whoever is judging the contest can then make a decision! Outside of an official admin-sanctioned match, you guys pick the judge.




TOURNAMENT INFO
---------------
* The tournament will be a series of 1v1 single elimination knockout match-ups. Each match-up will play a best of 3 games to determine who will advance to the next round. The finals round will be a best of five.

* Opening turn will be determined by a coin toss. Subsequent games in that match-up will then alternate.

* Some people may have to play more games than other people, depending on the number of participants and the random seeding that matches everybody up at the start. Luck of the draw, I'm afraid!

* Timing out on your turn results in you losing that particular game.

* Read HELP WALKERS TONGUE in full for lots more rules. These are subject to change throughout the match if the judge says so!

Penned by my hand on Kinsday, the 7th of Arios, in the year 470 MA.
