This is where you can issue challenges for Counsellor and Lieutenant Counsellor positions in a cabin. There are a few rules and things to note:

Rules/Etc.

Rules
Scoring=
 * 1) In the case of the Head Counselor or Lieutenant Counsellor having no quests, no quests are required to challenge.
 * 2) In the case of a Head or Lieutenant Counsellor having one or more quests, the challenger is required to have been on at least one successful quest. You only need one quest though.
 * 3) A User is required to have a user level of 4 or higher to challenge for a counselor position.
 * 4) The challenger is responsible for leaving a notice, both on the character page of the current counsellor, and the cabin page, that they are challenging, and what position they are challenging for, as well as messaging the user OOC on their talk page.
 * 5) Once the challenger has left a notice, they need to make a forum for the challenge
 * 6) Fights will be conducted in the same way as training fights, meaning the combatants will take turns posting their actions and reactions to each others attacks
 * 7) The winner will be decided by two judges. These judges will be assigned, once the challenge is ready to be judged.
 * 8) You will be judged not only by the outcome of the fight, but by roleplay quality, attitude, realism, and other factors
 * 9) If the current counsellor does not respond within a week to the challenging posts made by the challenger, they are considered to forfeit the fight, and must surrender their position to the challenger. The challenger must be able to show proof, that a notice was left in all of the appropriate places.
 * 10) Fights will proceed thusly: The challenger will post first. They have one post to describe themselves, talk about their battle preparations, brag, or what have you. The counsellor will then have one post to do the same. Then, battle will commence.
 * 11) Battles will last ten rounds. This is ten posts from each character, excluding the general discussion posts (which should be done with word bubbles) and OOC posts.
 * 12) After the allotted ten rounds, each char will have one post to "end the fight" with. Whether this be ended by some kind of bell, or by the fight ending, or something else, is up to them.
 * 13) Users must put their character's name next to the action. Like this Tsumi
 * 14) When the fight is over, please move the page to the 'ready to be judged' category, so that it can be dealt with quickly.
 * 15) Godmodding or metagaming will automatically disqualify a character, if done to an excessive degree, otherwise 1 or 2 minor instances of it will just get points taken off
 * 16) If one of the contestants does not reply within 7 days, they lose the challenge automatically. Exceptions are given for users with Away Notices.

Challenging an Outcome=

Challenging an Outcome
If you feel after a challenge is completed that one or both of the judges were either biased in their scores or generally unfair in their judgement, you may challenge the outcome. At which point 3 unbiased (unbiased in that they were neither the original judge or involved in the challenge itself) to look over the challenge and either vote fair or unfair. If the consensus from the 3 is that the challenge was fair, it will stand as is. If the consensus is the challenge was voted unfairly, it will be re-scored. The outcome is not guaranteed to call a new winner, but the person who lost may lose by less and have a better idea of what area they need to work on for next time they try a challenge. Arenas=
