@,

yup, jsut as I did with Chivvy ^^ 

@@Steel Accord,

Also, if the number stats seem unnessecary, its because they actually are. I jsut couldn't come up with a better idea for the plot. The players on the RP will score higher than all the other contestants in the end. ^^

I actually had an idea to run a very similar tournament style roleplay in the past except I was unsure how to handle combat since while the honor system is ideal it's not always the best as some people take advantage of it and the very nature of a tournament roleplay is to win XD. But who knows if this goes well I might revisit the idea and actually run the Fighting is Magic Grand Prix XD

[Samurai Equine 51,896]

I'm enjoying myself so far. 

 

Hope I didn't make my character's stats too high. He tends to have pretty balanced skills because of his back story. And I'm not going to RP like the numbers trump everything anyways. Besides, he took the test au naturel. Normally, he fights with a suit of armor.

(He also said that because I never really took the time to measure my characters abilities in terms of numbers like this. I tried to be fair and reasonable, keeping in mind on his life story and how he fights, but I don't like to break it down in numbers. Kind of kills the suspension of disbelief.)

 

 

I one hundred percent agree!

Uh huh, right, uuuuh, no. Please, even if there is no real purpose to the test thing, Please make your numbers a bit more realistic like the rest of us =_=

@@312 R3MIX yeah, I've gotta agree with Chivalry on this one, dude...I think your character is cool, but his stats are...a bit too good. 

 

Oh, and by the way, everyone, just for the record, Masque's physical stats wont matter much if he gets serious...fufufufufufufufu!!! XD

[1943 57]

Yeah ok, so I'll change it to strength 8, speed 9, agility 7.

Also, sorry about that, I kinda rushed it because I was busy making a music video.

I don't want to be annoying, but are you sure that some flying magic sharp blades would have 8/10 strength?

Something I have to say:

@Mention your opponent player when you finish your post

[Only if the fight between the two already began]

 

What about it?

[Star Saber 114]

Why am I getting super suspicious of this Sound Wave person; maybe it's the disembodied voice vibe or the fact that he's named after a Decepticon

[Lemon Slices 358]

Maybe there is a conspiration taking place in Equestria and the arena is selecting the best warriors for fight Celestia.

I gave her kind of low scores on the other two stats. And all I was trying to do was emphasize how powerful her magic was, and it's not like the numbers are really going to mean much.

Okay. I was just asking myself. You are right.

Mentalize a video trailer of our roleplay. The music could be this:

Wait wait wait. Conspiracy exists, but its the conspiracies that makes the story cool.

 

Just a suggestion: I was analyzing the Honor System of the RP, in short:

>>If your character deserve dealing a lot of damage, put that.

>>If your character deserve not receiving damage, put that.

>>You can't force your opponent to take the damage you want.

 

Fused with this fact:

>>If you lose the battle, you are dead. You lose control of the plot.

 

Conclusion:

>>I want to write in this RP the most I want, and I for this I must not let my character to get hurt. For this, I must force my opponent to accept my character is better and deserve to win. He would understand. I would win.

 

So, if everybody follow this concept, nobody would lose. Everybody wants to win, nobody will take damage, battles would be endlessly, there will be no winner where the plot demands someone.

 

I suggest something else.

 

The most creative writter win.

The RP would select someone who wrote better in the fight. The player who had more interaction with the story and his opponent than the other player that was just behind the monitor just pressing letters, before anyone lose, would be elected as winner of that fight in the OOC.

And who lose?

 

I suggest that losers would be out of the fighting itself, but would not lose control. Otherwise there would be no reason to keep reading that -- They think he is better than me, so should I became isolated? -- The answer is no. Losers have to be, at least, a spectator. An spirit, IDK. But they need to interact too. The last thing I want is getting out of the fight, lose my two characters, and doing nothing. Or someone else in that situation.

@@Lemon Slices, I'm pretty sure this tournament would have a rule about killing your opponents but yes those are all valid concerns with this kind of role play. In a typical say adventure style role play the winner of a battle is decided sort of by how it affects the story but with a tournament; there isn't that kind of thing happening. I mean I personally don't care if Ash ultimately wins the tournament or not; but I'd obviously not want him to go down in the first round since it would just... kinda make him a blowhard and not really validate any of his character's backstory

That's why I am suggesting electing the most creative.

I don't want too to lose first, even having two lives *hehe*

But we have to realize that we want a interesting story to someone else to read, and don't want the most creative between us to lose because his character is just a bit lower than his opponent.

 

@

Do you know why we don't want to lose in the first place?

We are afraid of don't having to write anymore. "There is so many cool people there, and I will be no longer with them if I lost! I won't make decisions that could be amazing", that's why.

And I am afraid because of that too. If Chivalry did not agree with the conspiracy thing, everything would be too previsible. And because of it I think our characters should not die.

 

And let's make something clear: The conspiracy is being amazing.

Yeah, this is pretty much it right here. A tournament is great, but unless you have people willing to take a dive, there really needs to be a better story. Thankfully, I am keeping my character on the mysterious side. More will be developed as the story goes on, but that's just one character. There needs to be a bigger story. A story that addresses why this tournament is happening in the first place. Is it happening in secret, or is it being allowed legally for some reasons? Is there something bigger going on, and if so, how will it affect all the tournament finalist?
