Anchors posted:And with that, we're only five matches away from CIPA the molemarian's debut brawl, hell yeah! All betting profits from Ted the Hurty's glorious demolition of CIPA will go towards expensive jewelry for Ted's mistress. Also  for Hiker Nos. Kidney punch and a chokeout? That was frickin' awesome.

Anchors posted:Bah, this last match has shown that when it comes to it, wrestlers like Hiker Nos and CIPA don't choke like the rest. Oh, I have no doubt that CIPA will fight to the fullest extent of her ability. I'm just saying it will be woefully insufficient.

Just to confirm the timeline, we spend our upgrade points and THEN get randomly reseeded, correct?

Huh. At first I was like, "Man! Stranglers are sure kicking rear end this tournament!" And then I noticed that 4 of their 6 wins were against kobolds, with one more coming against a dark gnome. Let's see how they fare in the second round...

Human power! Hopefully Ted the Hurty can follow a similar gameplan.

Vox Nihili posted:Though Wally's solid armor helped keep him alive, the massive expenditure of points on shields and iron plating meant that his skill levels were generally insufficient to overcome those of his opponent. Still, it could have gone either way. That was a good, tense fight. I'd imagine that future bashy warriors will fare the same, falling to their superiorly armed and armored opponents. One example that jumps to mind is Ted the Hurty. He's coming up next, dontcha know. Those of you who are smart will hurry and bet heavily on his opponent, the two-handed-sword-wielding Tigerman called Schrödinger. Schrödinger is sure to win!

What's this? Ted the Hurty is the betting favorite in the next fight? Hurry and place your bets on his opponent, Schrödinger! After all, who could expect a mere human to slay a ferocious Tigerman in one-on-one combat? Ted is surely doomed! Make sure you've made the right bets to reap the rewards from his inevitable death and dismemberment!

Combat Log posted:Ted the Hurty punches Schrödinger in the right upper leg with his right hand, bruising the muscle Huh. Somewhere in the midst of pulping Schrödinger's limbs, Ted took the time out to give him a nice Charley horse. Anyways, I must say that I am shocked and amazed that the plucky Ted managed to snatch this victory from the jaws of certain defeat! I hope this doesn't dissuade all of you fine folks from betting heavily against Ted in future matches.

From behind the locked gates of the gladiator pit, Ted the Hurty gazed out over the crimson-stained field of battle, his fingers alternately tightening and loosening on the handle of his flail. "Pfft," he scoffed. "I can take these guys."

Curses! I thought I had a sure bet there, with a minotaur vs. a goblin. What a tragic loss of dorfbux.

Uh-oh... Iron-armored human Ted the Hurty will be facing off against steel-sword-armed human Hugh Mann! As this will very likely mean Ted the Hurty's demise, I'd recommend all of you who value winning bets to wager heavily against Ted the Hurty! Bet Against Ted the Hurty... He Doesn't Have a Prayer!

Might be interesting to have requirements on how teams are formed -- like one Small character (goblin, gremlin, etc), one Medium (human, snakeman, ant-woman, etc), and one Large (minotaur, yeti, etc). I also think that just doing one major writeup and brief summaries of the other matches would work fine. As long as the combat logs are linked, everyone can get whatever information they might want. Not sure how hard it might make the bookkeeping, but what about distributing "experience points" based on performance? Maybe every match they play, fighters receive get 50 points. For every win, each fighter on a team then get, say, an additional 25 additional points, and maybe an additional 25 for every kill they make during the match. (note: these numbers would take some thought to balance -- I'm just throwing them out as placeholders for the sake of discussion). If you wanted, you could also have thread voting for that game-week's MVP across all matches played, which would be another XP bonus. Not sure about bonuses for sticking with the thread. I'd like any extra edge to help me win, to be sure, but I think if there is one, it should be minimally advantageous (like the extra gear RickVoid mentioned). We don't want to discourage potential new players by giving them the impression that the veterans have a significant built-in advantage (which, really, we kind of already have by having seen how all the different builds perform).
