Re: Rurouni Taikai Tactics - Round One
That makes things look all the worse for my team.

Re: Rurouni Taikai Tactics - Round One
Don't worry about it too much, Dry. These things are KNOWN for last minute surprises. Hell, our score may go up to 26 or something, I dunno.
EDIT: Of course, Sylph... there IS no private voting - READ THE RULES!!
Thanks for pouring salt on the wound, Mike... Gah! Lack of sleep is making me lose all coherency. ^.^

Mornin', people. Great round everyone.
Sylph, how long did it take to knock up that damage chart? It's very cool, if somewhat worrying for you guys. ;)

Re: Rurouni Taikai Tactics - Round One
Well I had a bit of free time while waiting for the final tally, so I threw it together. I might just make them for the sake of archiving them or just looking at the purdy colours. I have fun doing the weirdest things. ^.^

Re: Rurouni Taikai Tactics - Round One
Well, the thread hasn't been lock yet, so I might as well do something here.
__________________________________________
"Damnit, where is every body...?" Cinder asked aloud. This tournament was not like he was expecting. Instead of a stadium or some outdoors location, he had been dropped into another laboratory, this one filled with carnivorous freaks. And instead of direct combat, he had to seek out his opponents, something he had had little luck on. Add in that nonsense about teams, bracelets, and life force, and it was becoming likely that this day was the first in a long series of bad ones.
"Can't believe I fell for that blue bastard's con job. If I find that bastard I'm- Huh?" He stopped, noticing a pair of strangers around the corner. " Finally, some action. These guys aren't know what hittem'! Now, how do I do this again..." Clearing his mind as much as possible, He faded out from view. This was one of the various techniques he discovered in Ultratechs experiments on him after his transformation.
He crept up slowly to the two combatants, trying to get in range for his fire stream without them noticing him. This attempt failed however, as the larger man, a scarred individual wearing a bandanna, heard Cinder's footsteps, and turn to face the direction of the noise.
"Damn!" The burning man cursed under his breath, stopping. Too loudly though, as now the other man, clad in orange turned s attantion Cinder's way. He had been found, he knew his shadow was still visible in this state, and it wasn't likely they'd overlook it. He held his hands out, ready to bath them in a wave of flame if they tried to rush him. But then the bracelets of the two strangers, start flashing orange.
"The hell?" Ryogo wondered, looking at his bracelet. The word "match" kept blinking over and over again, leading both him and Ward to the unfortunate realization.
"Hey.." Ryogo started. "Whoever you are, you're on our team. These little crystal things prove it."
"Your kidding me." Cinder's voice proclaimed. "Please say your kidding me."
"'Fraid not."Ryogo replied. "Mind letting us see you?"
But before Cinder could reveal himself to his allies, the group faded out of view, wisked off to the next world by their unnamed host.
_______________________________________
So now, our group is together, but they haven't formally met yet. Ryogo and Ward don't even know what their third teammate look's like. Switch, SH I'll let you handle the next part. I'm bad with meetings anyway.
Now, precious sleep.

Final Results
Act One, Part Three: A Fitting Demise
The man stood silently at the window, watching the mayhem below as soldiers, aliens, and the third group fought against each other. His gaunt white face pulled down into a frown. I did not anticipate these newcomers… I do not know their agenda, but they are speeding up the process considerably. I will have to order more black ops squads to deal with them, though. He stooped down to pick up his briefcase. When he stood up again, he noticed that his reflection was no longer the only one in the window. He turned to face a smiling young man with blue skin, a lab coat, and large draconic wings.
“You know, I seriously doubt your black ops squads could help you deal with my contestants. I picked the best of the best, and a team of state-sanctioned assassins wouldn’t last a second against them.”
The gaunt man was surprised by the stranger‘s appearance, but he had spent years concealing any of the vestiges of emotion that he still had, and he maintained his sombre expression. “Your contestants? So I take it that you are responsible for their arrival.” The aliens sound like they’re getting closer… I had better deal with this… thing, and leave quickly.
“Boy, you catch on quick.” The young man turned to leave. “Oh, and don’t bother calling in your assassins. My group will be gone in a few minutes, and you have more pressing matters.” He opened the door and flicked the light switch. “Such as your life.”
The man in the blue suit stood in the darkness for a few moments, pondering the words of the strange creature, and then headed towards the door. Just as he touched the door know, though, he heard the all-too-familiar sound of teleportation, and he saw misshapen silhouettes in the frosted glass. Stepping back a few metres, he pulled a large-calibre handgun out of his suit, and that was when the door flew off it’s hinges. A swarm of the alien creatures poured through the door, and as the gaunt man opened fire, he realized that he didn’t have enough ammo for all of them…
---
Thrill Seekers: -3 damage
Disciples of Wind: -2 damage
The Dirty Quarter Dozen: -1 damage
The Kupo Kids: -1 damage
Snow Falling Quickly Down A Hill: 0 damage
Two On One: 0 damage
Holy Redemption: 2 damage
The Reluctant Ones: 2 damage
Strange Company: 2 damage
Magic Blades: 24 damage
Ragnarok: 29 damage
So, two teams fall, as nine continue onward. I encourage all Fallen teams to stick around until the fourth round, where I have something special planned for them.
And... I HATE MY BATTLE SYSTEM!!! I took four hours to calculate the votes, and barely half of the possible votes in this round were used! So I'm going to be starting rounds at 4:00AM for now on, to give myself more time. I hope that's okay with everyone...
Next round up in a few minutes...

Re: Rurouni Taikai Tactics - Round One
Holy Bajeezus!
That's the last time I hit REPLY on the top of the page. >.<; Whole damn thread loaded.
Heh. ^_^; Was getting worried about you, there Krizak. Thought you went to bed on us... :) Welcome to our madness! -- And, I don't mind the battle system! (Heh. x.x;) Perhaps you can work it into something else later on. (*Hint*)
Anyways.
I am TRULY amazed at the turn of this first round. o_O What an outcome. I am very sorry to those two teams who were ousted so quickly. Ouch. 4AM sounds like an OK Plan, Krizak, just, don't push it if you have work early in the morning, there.. Bad kharma to go into work and not have enough sleep.
^_^ Speaking of sleep...
I'm actually getting tired... Waited for the final outcome, and it came. Thank yew... I'll catch up tommorow. (Krizak, was it YOU that phoned me at 12pm today? I missed that on purpose...)

Re: Rurouni Taikai Tactics - Round One
Second round begins now.
