Notes:

[phasicdb]

"Formations must be set up by 11 A.M. to allow a full hour for war cries and the hurling of epithets across the hundred-yard no-man's-land. These will be graded. It is a time for the uttering of mighty oaths, and each wizard is allowed an incantation at the head of his team....

"If, during the course of his performance, [the wizard] has actually succeeded in putting the whammy on the opposition by his ritual defenestration of a watermelon or whatever, then his team loses. "

(Dig the ambiguous wording!)
