An Imperfect Challenge (Cell vs 17)

[Handsome Jack]

Fight me bro. 

Standard rules apply, but let's increase that word count to 1000 words. We'll drop the rounds to 2 if you shock me and actually took 7 damage in that last fight. 

Could also use a Judge. Since we're both pals with Greg, how's he sound to you?

[Android 17]

No thanks.

[Handsome Jack]

Don't tell me the guy with 3 times my OM is afraid to fight me? That's unfortunate. Was hoping to fight you now, when I actually have a ghost of a chance of victory, rather than wait until you're at full-strength and will effortlessly hand me my rear-end. Nothing against you. You're a close friend. Just hard to pass up an actual fighting chance.

Thusly, I shall continue with said challenge. As per the rules, the Challenge remains in effect until both players have agreed to fight or to postpone the fight. I don't believe this shall fall under the "harassment" clause of the fight rules. I eagerly await your acceptance or for us to work out another time to handle this.

Seventeen is at an Imperial Barracks and he gonna stay there and polish his medals and play darts with his homies.

[Handsome Jack]

Cool. I'm on my way, fam. As I have no Bounty and have been working for Gero, no issues.

[Handsome Jack]

I also appreciate that you editted your post to make yourself less accessible. If you really don't wanna fight, I'll call it off. It's obviously more than just a "I don't think I can win" thing and I'd hate to intrude on whatever is going on to make you this adamant against fighting me.

I'm gonna try and get the story from both parties on what happened here.

[Omni]

You get a guaranteed fight if you challenge someone within 1 OOC week of them being high profile (ie being in a fight). Obviously things can get a bit confusing if folks challenge late in that time frame, requiring edits to be made, but I believe in this case Cell made clear his intentions to challenge after the fight was done, and so in the spirit of good sport it was completely against the rules to try and get around that by roleplaying a move from Tier 5 to Tier 1 (which is a long, long way, incidentally). So I will require that last post by 17 to be edited.

The challenge is valid.

[Handsome Jack]

I cancel the challenge regardless. Getting a fight with Alex that I stand a chance of winning ain't worth losing a friend over. He's adamant that he doesn't wanna fight. I'll respect that, in the interest of keeping things friendly between us. His edit can stand and I will work on other plans until he's ready to fight me.

[Handsome Jack]

Alex has stated in Skype that he is fine with the challenge now, but he'd like to request a different judge. Would Jade be willing to give us a judgement?

We also need to know if i took more than 6 points of damage last fight.

[Handsome Jack]

IC: challenge has been made.

[Android 17]

We're waiting to hear from some people to solidify background details, so the timer hasn't started yet.

When it does, Cell'll have first post.

[Trixie]

Just as a heads up Cell, this is a tentative challenge, if the ISO Verse drops after the fight and Seventeen is not with you (or dead/being consumed), Trixie is going to murder/death/kill you.

With extreme prejudice.

[Handsome Jack]

^_^ wouldn't be the first time Trix laid my ass to waste.

[Professor Sunshine]

Hey if Cell somehow survives Trixie after this battle does this mean Cell will be wanted?

[Handsome Jack]

Such a question belongs in the appropriate forum.

In regards to this. Still working on getting full score sheets and grades drafted up, but damage numbers are something I have ready at this point. Android 17 took 8 points of damage during his fight against All Might.

[Blink]

This is great.

[Handsome Jack]

Got called into work on my day off. Expect post in the evening time.
