If you're looking for 5v5 ideas in the Appleton Melee.
Redtusk Manfryd Preston Normyn Balon
Vs
Daeron Roland Aubrey Davos Mikel
If you're asking why: Redstusk vs Roland to continue the rivalry. Aubrey with the honorable Companions. Davos and Mikel vs. Normyn and Balon seems natural. Manfryd perhaps for Marq to "help out" a future principal bannerman. That's a knee jerk reaction.

5v5 isn't really any faster/smoother than a 10 person semi-free-for-all.
Given that the gauntlet didn't cut any PCs (and I suspect wouldn't have for the other two, either); we could add all four of the current 1v1 combatants to the list, which would put it up to 12, allowing for 2 3v3s.
We would have 3 team fragments left: Balon & Normyn Aubrey & Roland Mikel & Robyn
I think the most interesting to just randomly assign the 12 of us to two groups of 6 and form the teams from there.
Simpler but far less interesting would be to assign a team-less player to each of the teams and the remaining 3 solos form a 4th 'team'.

Surely everyone will want to be on Manfryd's team? He's the first guy picked in the soccer/football game at school. Given Roland's jousting success, could just blap out Roland + Aubrey (as they were on a team with Addam) and take out Redtusk (injured, fighting solo) + Normyn (as Roland's opposite). Plus maybe Preston too if we're wanting to give the Starlings credit for Aemon Flowers + Addam Velaryon, and for having two teams make it so far. That said, don't want story coolness of Roland and Normyn knocking each other out to short Balon a team mate, so happy to have Roland cancel someone else out (or for Balon to get a replacement team mate)? Roland's had a lot of spotlight in the joust and would thin the numbers a lot.

Screw this one eyed dude's and his ability to dodge stepping in to the fire in the dark. greatbastards.boards.net/post/35399/thread- Clearly I put out his bad eye and have only made him more dangerous (albeit we knew that with the upgrade to Primary character status). Daeron putting a lot on the line for Lord Starling.

Technically, I'm not sure if one should have a -1D for shadowy lightning conditions for noticing a fire.....hmm, but were there not an agility test also for avoidance? Doublechecking.
Well, Daeron has so far forced a wound and a point of fatigue, could be enough, two wounds and Norren is probably in no shape to beat Lord Willem.

Daeron putting a lot on the line for Lord Starling. Orokos favoring the NPCs as well. An 11 on a 2d6. Looks like Daeron's DP usage *should* save Lord Starling... for now.

Beating a TN 6 with 4k2 isn't very impressive...however, pity that there was a 6 in there since he technically took the wound first and therefore would have another -1D to Awareness....

Might encourage Daeron if he's able to manage another swing + maneuver? Or if we can find another -1D from somewhere! Although I'm not there to spend destiny on the penalty. So close...

I’m pretty much planning to get one more hit in before getting TF out of there. The longer he’s in that fight the higher the odds that Noreen figures out that it’s Daeron. I doubt that painting a green hand on my shield will do much to convince him that the true perpetrator is some anti-Dornish fanatic.

Miracle manoeuvre check and flambé him while shouting anti Dornish slogans (ask Balon for some?).

Did The Order of The Green Hand make it into public rumors?
That an anti-Dornish lynching mob would target Norren or anyone from Longtable seems a little odd, however.

If the Order of the Green Hand isn't public knowledge may I suggest retconning it to a golden tree on silver. /snicker

Probably wasn't time for anything more than borrow a shield without Daeron's personal coat of arms on it....
Also unknown how many actually have made the connection to The Order of The Green Hand and not simply see someone using The Gardener arms for no apparent reason.

Since I'm too lazy to find and sign into my test-account, anyone can see the new IC forum(s) for Oldtown?
You're supposed to not yet see, just me wanting to put stuff in there before the grand reveal.
