Re: Challenge, Sasuke(and friends) Vs Smith (and squad) - Okor - 03-01-2016
I'm fine with any date.
I don't care much for calls, particularly, although chances are this will bite me in my rear.
1.2k words is just fine by me.

Sasuke is only able to post on the weekends at the moment. In order to accommodate that, I will be extending each round to take one week. That means that anyone able to post during the weekdays will be able to do so, and Sasuke and anyone else only able to post during the weekend will be able to make a post then. This does mean that the fight, excluding preludes and aftermaths, will take a total of three weeks, but I consider that reasonable for a fight of this size and complexity.
Sasuke would also prefer the fight to start after this weekend. Essentially it has to start at some point during the next two weeks. I asked him to have a think about this so it's currently open, but during this time if anyone else has any preferences, please voice them here.
We will be using a calling system as per normal group rules. This means that when you are ready to begin writing and there is nobody in the queue, you may 'call' a post in the Fight discussion topic (I will make a new topic when the fight begins). You will then have a specified amount of time to make your post before the right to call 'opens' again. The default is 2 hours but I would also like to take a poll on this for preferences.
The default word count limits for each post is 800 words. Given the one-post-a-week nature of this competion, I think a good limit would be 1200 words. Please also give your opinions on this and I will try to make everyone happy with the ultimate ruleset.
Therefore, if you are involved with this fight, please fill in the following questionnaire:
If up to you ...
When, during the next two weeks, would the fight start?
How long should 'calls' last? (default 2 hours, proposed 3 hrs)
What should be the word count limit on posts? (default 800wds, proposed 1200 wds)
This is not mandatory or anything, just helps keep things organised. :-)
Perfectly fine with me. Are we doing it like Nippur where its one big huge fight rather than 1v1v1v1?
Re: Challenge, Sasuke(and friends) Vs Smith (and squad) - Omni - 03-01-2016
People can pair off to fight if they want, but it will be a matter of style and choice rather than a hard rule.
This means you can write your 'duel' as being interrupted by a flailing Deadpool getting thrown into your fisticuffs as another duel crosses over, mixups, etc. This will all be purely for the sake of fun and writing. In terms of rules, people will be judged on an individual basis which contributes to their side.

For public fairness:
[15:45:01] Sasuke: Hey, artifacts are still interchangeable, right? I can give my artifacts to other players right? I was able to give Retane his artifact back to him in the past, but I wanted to check with you because of the new change with rules on items.
[15:45:30] Sasuke: Is it cool for me to toss an ally an egg during the fight still or has that changed?
[15:46:12] Greghul D'Omni: I think it would be fair to toss an ally an artefact during a fight.
Re: Challenge, Sasuke(and friends) Vs Smith (and squad) - Thaal Sinestro - 03-01-2016
This all seems really fair! Thank you so much. Having this adjucated in a fair, upright manner has removed a lot of the stress and salt. Thank you again.
When, during the next two weeks, would the fight start?
I'm honestly fine with whenever is most convenient for other people.
How long should 'calls' last? (default 2 hours, proposed 3 hrs)
I think 3 hours ate acceptable, but giving people a rough idea of when you expect to pay would be nice so we aren't all tripping over each other. This is especially true for Sasuke because if he can ONLY pay on the weekends, it'd be preferable that everyone knows roughly when, so that we can plan on it. I don't want to eat up all of his available posting time. I'd REALLY like to avoid gerrymandering. Let's make this clean.
What should be the word count limit on posts? (default 800wds, proposed 1200 wds)
I think 1200 is just about ideal, so long as people aren't punished for falling short of it. Some people write before in smaller lengths, while people like me tend to go on forever.

^I am of the mind that if you can say the same thing in less words, power to ya. I just want to also allow for people who are verbose. 1200 seems like a fair balance.

Re: Challenge, Sasuke(and friends) Vs Smith (and squad) - Deadpool - 03-01-2016
From my knowledge, artifacts still have a cool down time outside of sagas, so I don't think that's possible
Re: Challenge, Sasuke(and friends) Vs Smith (and squad) - Thaal Sinestro - 03-01-2016
Ok cool, I'm honestly pretty hazy on the Artefact rules. Just trying to cover my ass XD

Ok, so, as far as purchases go, are we locked out again, or can we still use the purchase rules given by Omni until the fight begins?
Re: Challenge, Sasuke(and friends) Vs Smith (and squad) - Gilgamesh - 03-01-2016
We can purchase until the challenge officially starts this weekend I believe. I don't thing GV people could buy items tbouhh

Omni Wrote:Characters coming directly from the Graveyardverse will be unable to summon items pre-fight because of the time required and the nature of the ambush. However, they will be allowed to summon powers, moves and non-items due to the in-universe aspect of these things being able to be innovated 'on the fly'. Characters not coming directly from the Graveyardverse will have no restrictions on summoning whatsoever up until the challenge is made.This stands for now.

From what I've heard, everyone can purchase moves and such currently, but anyone who's just coming from the saga cannot purchase items

Quote: If you choose to defend against a Super Attack with another Super Attack, then a judge will be called to roll a dice (usually with random.org for simplicity's sake) to decide what happens. Regardless of the strength of either move, there are four possible outcomes in a struggle, each with an equal (25%) chance of succeeding. 1: The first side succeeds, and their super move does full damage. 2: The second side succeeds, and their super move does full damage. 3: Both sides fail, dealing no damage. 4: Both sides succeed, and both sides take full damage.
Re: Challenge, Sasuke(and friends) Vs Smith (and squad) - Deadpool - 03-01-2016
I'd be totally cool with turning over Offensive Supers vs. Offensive Supers anyway; only defensive supers of the same tier can completely nullify an offensive super.
That sound cool to you guys?
