Skeletor vs Ash Williams/Kelly MacAryn OOC thread (Assault on Darkshire)
#1
Behold, a separate OOC thread, in order to keep our calling and other relevant discussion from confusing the main Assault thread. 

To start - relevant details restated for ease-of-access: 


The Arena:
Underneath the Town of Darkshire

Skeletor's doom drill has come near to piercing through Darkshire's best defences, but a team of primes and secondaries have managed to break through into the tunnel underground. Here, Light is quite dim and the earth is quite uneven - Those with legs will find themselves constantly struggling to keep their stance in the harsh angles of the cavern, and the already disturbed earth creates the hazard of cave-ins if the Forces in Conflict are careless with their munitions. Here, the air is hard to breathe, and insects crawl out of their underground homes to mingle with the invaders. most of them are harmless nuisances, but Dracula's evil stretches into even the earth, and thus there also exists the rarities of poisonous or oversized beasts stalking the newly made cave, breaking out of the earth at a moment's notice.

The main concern of the forces gathered underneath Darkshire are each other, however - Demons and wraiths stalk the tunnels, and horrifying zerg besides. Doglike creatures with an unbreakable tenacity, vicious scythe limbs, and impeccable night vision, these tunnel fighters will work with Illidan's nightmares to give a merciless greeting to the determined assaulting forces of Darkshire, creating a conflict smaller, but just as intense and chaotic, as the one continuing above.


The Rules (as decided in the main thread): 

Word Limit: 1000
Rounds: 3
Random Elements: on
Damage Meter: on 

- Judge's discretion on whether or not the loser(s) is allowed to be executed
- The actual backdrop of the fight is just fodder and not much more than a location for most fights

THE CALL SYSTEM

Each round will last 5 days. During that time people are allowed to "call" a post. Once called that person has 2 hours to submit a post. At the end of the 2 hours, or if the person has posted, someone else is allowed to call. You can call to be next in line, but once the first person has posted or their 2 hours are up your time begins. This continues until everyone has posted or the 5 days are up. Judges will then have 1 day to tally up damages and so they have a chance to get caught up if they fall behind.


Discussion via PM between the participants has led to the decision that I'll start the fight-thread with the setup (writing myself and Ash into the tunnel and proximity to Skeletor) and from there we'll jump right into the fight, with Skeletor posting first (of the fight that is - the second overall post of the thread. I'll throw a quote-box at the end of the setup to make it obvious), at which point we will have officially begun.

I actually ran our whole setup, from posting the OOC thread to my doing the intro/setup post, to you posting first and officially starting the fight, past one of our judges in PMs before the OOC thread went up. They approved it, so unless there's some subtle aspect of the process I'm missing (which is admittedly entirely possible) I think we're good to go.

(Sorry I didn't mention this earlier - my traitorous eyeballs somehow missed your post.)

Relevant, and easily missed in the main discussion thread, so I'm reposting it here.
#4
Yes, you all are all good. Fight begin!

FIGHT! FIGHT FOR MY AMUSEMENT! BWAHAHA!!



Also, Kelly, didn't you promise to not type threads at late 'o clock anymore? You traitor. D:<

My bad, meant to get the post out yesterday, but couldn't get it done in a reasonable time-frame with 8am class the next day.

Skeletor is ready for battle, and my first post is up.

Apologies for the awkward stretch-time right there.

No worries Skeletor,

I guess since everyone has posted so far, am I next to post in the fight or does Kelly want to post his fight reply since he did the intro to the thread.

If I'm next, then I'll try to work on my post soon. Recently, my parents have left town and I have to take care of my little brother even the house. That has slowed me down a bit.

My post was the intro post - it wasn't actually a part of the first round.

We're not doing this strictly turn based. We're using the 'call' system, as decided in the main discussion and restated at the top of this thread.

I was planning on calling next post some time later this evening, when I knew I'd have two uninterrupted hours in which to write, but your'e free to call before then if you wish - bearing in mind that you only have dibs for the next two hours after you've called next post.

One way or another once we've all posted (or 5 days have gone by), this round ends, and then round 2 (of 3) begins.
#8
Calling now.
#9
Annnnnnnd posted. So provided I'm understanding the call system correctly, now that Ash is the only one left, he automatically gets next post, and he has three days (plus a few hours) remaining in which to do so before the round ends and we move on regardless - then a one-day break for judges to tally the damages, then it's first-call-first-post again as round two begins.
#10
Calling for my post.

Solid post, Ash.

All three of us have posted - End Round 1!

As per the agreed upon rules, round 2 starts in 24 hours (so that our venerable judges can stay caught up).
#13
I've judged round one, including damage taken. I await Elfailzalot's opinion just so we can stay in sync. Ash, please make sure to correct your character roaster link soon.
#14
Oy Vey... that double-teaming is rough!

Looking forward to round 2 guys!

Just to let you know, I'm using THIS grading system.

#16
Unless my grasp of time has somehow escaped me, calling for Round 2 is now open.
#17
Calling my post now.
#18
Round 2 post is up. Kelly is using a T1 powerup for the rest of the round, and a T1 superattack. Which I think means Skeletor gets next post so he can respond?
#19
I will try to get one out by the end of Sunday, but the existence of homework and jobwork might push that to Monday.

#20
and after looking over the rules, I just realized I should state Skeletor's intent to counter with his own Super attack. I believe that means we need Ezzy to tell us if they get canceled or blow through, then I can write it up in my post.

Apologies, I should have said something sooner probably....
