I like how you guys pay some attention to gladiator, hopefully this tourney ends well. My two cents:

1. Why do you hate Kodachis?
2. You need to stipulate what happens in the case of a draw. I see that you put "first to 11 kills wins" but imagine this: the score is 10-10 and then the next round is a double KO. Oh shit. I'd imagine that whoever gets the next kill would win, but it's something you should mention because some players just require idiot notes.
3. "Pedal" is so loosely defined that anyone can claim that their opponent is pedaling(which in most cases they do anyways). The best thing you can do to address this issue is to have a time limit to rounds, which is what you did. 3 minutes is too long though, shorter rounds would encourage more aggressive play. Average round duration of high level play is around 30 seconds, even with 120/100 stats and rusty swords.
