Ah. I see

I thought since he beat me he went into the tournament.

It's me vs. the winner of ADG vs. Sheep. But I haven't heard from Sheep all weekend (which probably explains why the Mafia thread has ground to a halt), so who knows when this fight will be ready??

Asmodean

Jamski · December 7, 2003, 17:40

We could declare Sheep a coward and make Asmo fight against Nuclear Master?

DrSpike · December 7, 2003, 17:48

What about ADG and Spaced. ADG especially since he originally signed up.

Adagio · December 7, 2003, 18:17

Neither Spaced or Nuclear Master signed up for the tournament as far as I'm aware, so they should just fight-for-fun...

Skanky Burns · December 7, 2003, 18:48

Vovanus Scipio Ursacius looks to the crowd, and the emperor stands to hold out his arm. Again he turns his thumb downwards, it is a particularly blood-thirsty crowd today.

Vovanus steps torwards his opponent and raises his mighty blade, preparing to finish him off. However, blood loss conspires against him. Much to Tyndareus Antleridus's relief, Vovanus drops his sword and collapses.

Tyndareus Antleridus is spared.

Both mighty warriors are carried out of the colisseum to a standing ovation from the crowd, who have decided that both faught bravely enough after all.

I say let the winners from the "fun" games also in the tournament. We have enough warm bodies for another round before we have to worry about evening up the sides. Or we could go on a recruitment drive for an additional 4 warriors to join the round 1 of the tournement. We could even allow people who have died (like Jamski) to try their luck with another warrior.

Tassadar500 · December 7, 2003, 18:57

All I know is I want to ref a match

Hmm I think it would take a while for new players to play their matches. Perhaps we should proceed to get 3 finalists (ie the winners of the 2 fun games play in a third 'semi') then play a round robin. It's only an extra 2 games.

It the players get their skates on it could be done quite quickly, then we could start a new tourney.

This is okay with me. Only question is: Do we wait for Sheep, or do I proceed to play ADG immediately??

I'd like to do one as well.

Why does Skanky get all the fun otherwise?

Sounds good.

Asmodean

Let's give him 5 more hours?

Spaced Cowboy · December 8, 2003, 11:22

Wha... no more kills...me likey the kills?

[With only two points remaining, my move is A2D2H4, no way for NM to win].

Spacius sets his long handeled battleaxe on the right side of Nucleaus' neck. Nucleaus drops to his knees, and Spacius slowly draws his #I battleaxe (XI degree loft) over his shoulder with both hands.

He pauses for a second a the top of his backswing and starts dutifully downward picking up speed on the way. He makes solid contact with Nucleaus' neck and continues his swing in a beautiful twisting follow through.

Spacius shouts "IV" as the head of Nucleaus starts out straight and then starts to slice badly to the right landing in the fairway of the VIIth row at the feet of Spikeus.

Spacius leaves the arena to the sounds of the cheering crowd, but muttering to himself about, "his damned inside to outside swing plane."

(As reported by the realms number I reporter, Dikius Maximus)

Skanky Burns · December 8, 2003, 11:52

Nuke had 3 points remaining, so could hit you for 1 damage at least. Although I guess that is irrelevant.

Spacius Cowdius is officially declared the winner!

Spaced Cowboy · December 8, 2003, 15:10

Oh he had 3...my bad try A3D2H3.

Does me gets to play in the tourney or what?

As SC looks triumphantly to the crowd Caesar gives a signal, and a servant opens a gate. Seconds later SC is faced with a very pissed off lion.

Will he survive to fight the renowned gladiators such as Skanky and Spikian? Or will he become today's main course, and perish here?

Vote now!

Intimidated by the head of the last opponent that I placed at your feet?

Jamski · December 8, 2003, 19:28

The lion attacks 4, D1,P5 !!!

Spaced Cowboy · December 8, 2003, 19:33

And I counter with AI DV PV (or IV, but my stats are now XI). And you all know what happened that last time a lion pissed me off, right......I got me some good kitty that day

General Ludd · December 8, 2003, 20:16

I want another fight.

Jamski · December 8, 2003, 21:30

Me too

Can someone get Jesus to do a ressurrection on my corpse?

-Jam

vovan · December 8, 2003, 21:30

So, Spaced and I won the non-tourney matches, so I suppose we should take on each other then or what?

Tassadar500 · December 8, 2003, 21:38

I challenge Jamski to a fight!

Vlad Antlerkov · December 8, 2003, 21:53

I challenge Osweld.

vovan · December 8, 2003, 22:01

Hell, I won't wait for any decisions from the tournament makers in that case.

I hereby challenge Spaced Cowboy.

If they object, well, they can just come down to the arena floor and say so.

Yeah! Let them come down if they have a problem with that!

Skanky Burns · December 9, 2003, 01:43

Actually I think we are following Spikie's idea in which case the non-tourney matches would still be part of the tournament.

Someone organise who has won what and who is up next!
People who want to ref matches, choose what match you are running and then let the people involved know.
Don't expect others to organise things for you.

Tassadar500 · December 9, 2003, 01:46

I think Dr. Spike and Asmodean both made it so I will ref their match against each other
