They have a better chance than A Tarantino Film at least. Part of it hinges on if that bowbold shows up with his game face on.

I've removed home arena advantage for the interdivisional matches in rounds 4 through 15. The intradivisional matches in rounds 16 through 18 will still feature teams making visits to the teams they hosted in rounds 1 to 3, and vice versa, as it would be unfair to have to be the visitor without a corresponding opportunity to be at home. Also, the next round is unlocked and the commissioners may now run fights for round 4!

Even tithin doesn't think his Spooky Scary Skeletons can win. What is the world coming to when bone bros divide? On the other hand I'll be going from 7,000 to 18,000 dorfbux when they win, so eh!

I'm not looking forward to this: This Bites Knife Toseeu, a female Strangler fighter managed by me. Sun Tzulander the Philomodel, a male Elf fighter managed by Keru. Roland Gorchnik, a male Human fighter managed by Maarak. Eyeteeth IV, a male Werewolf fighter managed by Revenant Threshold. This Bites has a record of no victories and 3 losses. VS Go big and/or go home Snowshank Redemption, a male Yeti fighter managed by A good poster. Tyler Durden is Hobbes, a male Tigerman fighter managed by Iunnrais. 3 Wolf Moon Shirt, a male Werewolf fighter managed by iLonie. Slam Whale Willy, a male Werewolf fighter managed by potatomanjack. Go big and/or go home has a record of 2 victories and 1 loss.

 Round 4, Fight 1 Go big and/or go home is on the left side of the arena. Snowshank Redemption (A good poster) is a male yeti. He wields a copper large dagger and wears an iron mail shirt. Tyler Durden is Hobbes (Iunnrais) is a male tigerman. He is empty handed and wears leather armor. 3 Wolf Moon Shirt (iLonie) is a male werewolf. He wields an iron two-handed sword and wears a leather cap, leather armor, leather leggings, leather gauntlets, and leather high boots. Slam Whale Willy (potatomanjack) is a male werewolf. He wields a silver mace and a wooden buckler and wears a leather cap, a copper mail shirt, leather gauntlets, and leather high boots. This Bites is on the right side of the arena. Knife Toseeu (synthorange) is a female strangler. She wields a copper large dagger and a wooden buckler and wears no armor. Sun Tzulander the Philomodel (Keru) is a male elf. He is empty handed and wears a steel cap, a copper mail shirt, a silver breast plate, leather leggings, leather gauntlets, and leather high boots. Roland Gorchnik (Maarak) is a male human. He wields a copper whip and a copper scourge and wears an iron cap, leather armor, leather gauntlets, and leather low boots. Eyeteeth IV (Revenant Threshold) is a male werewolf. He wields a wooden buckler and a wooden buckler and wears an iron helm, leather armor, an iron mail shirt, iron greaves, copper gauntlets, and copper high boots.  Go big and/or go home is a 2.71 to 1 betting favorite in this match with 4375.00 dwarfbucks in total bets placed on them, compared to 1616.00 dwarfbucks for This Bites.  The gladiators charge and for once Sun Tzu doesn't run out in front and get slammed. The teams advanced in a near-perfect line and begin dueling. Slam Whale Willy bashes Roland in the guts while Tyler Durden the tiger punches Knife Toseeu the strangler in the ear. The stranglers ear is crushed, blood flies across the arena. Knife Toseeu doesn't take no poo poo and stabs the large tiger in the arm so hard that bone fractures. Roland sees an opportunity to hit Tyler Durden and he takes full advantage by lashing him in the chest, breaking ribs, and causing the tigerman to pass out from pain.  Two gladiators (Roland and Knife Toseeu) smash away at the prone tigerman while SnowShank attacks them from behind. He manages to bruise, but nothing more. Sun Tzulander blindsides the huge yeti with a left hook to the face. Down goes the yeti! The home team is really getting bent over here.  Slam Whale Willy, the werewolf with a mace, smashes Roland's shoulder to hell, but Roland continues to swing at the downed tigerman. One more lash and Tyler Durden is no more. Just in time too, since Slam Whale Willy's next attack breaks Rolands leg and sends him to the floor unconscious. At the same time in the werewolf duel down south 3 Wolf Moon finally gets the better of Eyeteeth and takes off his hand with a swipe of his huge sword.  Slam Whale Willy swings twice and finally cracks Rolands head wide open. Eyeteeth's arm is diced open by 3 Wolf Moon. Knife Toseeu and Sun Tzulander continue to pound at the downed Snowshank. It really looks like the home team has a good chance now. It's 2v3, and one of the 3 is bleeding, faint, and in massive amounts of pain.  And I spoke too soon like an idiot. Eyeteeth charges Slam Whale Willy, sending him to the floor stunned. Knife Toseeu disregards the knife in his hand and instead bites the werewolf's hand. He shakes violently while Sun Tzulander punches the werewolf. Knife Toseeu releases the hand in his mouth and stabs his knife clean through Slam Whale Willy's arm. Down goes Slam Whale Willy. Sun Tzu and Eyeteeth attack the downed werewolf immediately, but Knife Toseeu keeps his wits around him and leaps at 3 Wolf Moon dagger first. The last remaining werewolf on the home team looks surprised for a moment before Knife Toseeu's dagger slams into his face. Down goes 3 Wolf Moon.  And now it's just cleanup. Knife Tosseu uses his dagger to good effect.  And then he turns on the yeti who takes a beating before finally succumbing to a dagger in the head. Winners: This Bites Roland Gorchnik: 1 Knife Toseeu: 3 Slam Whale Willy: 1 Combat Log

Maaaan, I was working on a fight, too! Round 4, Fight 6  The Plump Helmets is on the left side of the arena. Dory (my dad) is a female minotaur. She wields a copper spear and wears a bronze cap, a bronze mail shirt, bronze gauntlets, and bronze high boots. James LargeSausage (Afriscipio) is a male human. He wields an iron halberd and wears a copper cap, an iron mail shirt, iron gauntlets, and leather low boots. Josie the Bludgeonatrix (Ramc) is a female elf. She wields a copper mace and a wooden shield and wears leather armor, leather gauntlets, and leather high boots. Return of Panty Thief (Mr. Vile) is a male yeti. He is empty handed and wears a bronze helm, a bronze breast plate, bronze greaves, bronze gauntlets, and bronze low boots. Spooky Scary Skeletons is on the right side of the arena. Tash Al'rhyn (tithin) is a female werewolf. She wields a silver war hammer and a wooden shield and wears a copper mail shirt and leather gauntlets. Three Gremlins in a Blender (AJ_Impy) is a male strangler. He wields an iron pick and a wooden shield and wears a copper cap, copper gauntlets, and copper low boots. Bad Munki (Coward) is a male kobold. He wields a steel bow and wears a leather cap. Candy Corn Tiger (Klokwurk) is a male tigerman. He wields an iron halberd and a wooden shield and wears bronze gauntlets. The Plump Helmets is a 1.40 to 1 betting favorite in this match with 12310.00 dwarfbucks in total bets placed on them, compared to 8794.00 dwarfbucks for Spooky Scary Skeletons. So here's a bit of trivia for you: did you know that the away team's name is actually (spaces replaced by underscores) "Spooky_Scary_Skeletons_"? It's true!  Shot fired, shot hit. Dory has her arm broken by a steel arrow.  The melee begins. Candy Corn stabs Josie in the arm. She loses her shield.  Another shot already? As it's in the air, James stabs Tash, crushing her ribcage. She's down! The arrow hits Dory again, shredding her liver. She's out as well! That's one member from each team unable to contribute. James follows up, lopping off Tash's head. While his attention was tied up, though, Candy Corn charges him and knocks him back, stunned. The tiger's halberd mangles the human's leg.Three Gremlins chops off Josie's weapon hand, at the same moment Candy Corn removes James's foot. Where is Panty Thief in all of this? His teammates need him, or their flawless record is likely not to stay so flawless.  Standing apart from the fight, doing nothing, of course! Meanwhile, Three Gremlins lands the killing blow on Dory. That's a kill on each side. Of couse, Candy Corn is pulling apart James. There goes the halberd-holding arm! The Plump Helmets have literally no weapons left between them; James and Josie dropped theirs, and Panty Thief didn't bring one in the first place.  Another shot. Again as it's in the air, a critical blow is struck. Candy Corn dealt James the killing blow. He then whips around and removes Josie's head a split second before Bad Munki's arrow could hit.  Until I checked the log, I thought it was the arrow that had done her in. Now it won't hit anyone. Panty Thief may not have contributed, but he's also not hurt. Can he carry the day? He starts with Three Gremlins, ignoring Candy Corn's ineffective halberd.  Another shot. Again as it's in the air, Panty Thief is struck true. Candy Corn gives him some broken ribs.  Good shot. You didn't even get close, kobold. Candy Corn has to keep at it, instead, breaking Panty Thief's leg. It looks like the beginning of the end. Candy Corn and Three Gremlins continue ripping up Panty Thief, who is not carrying the day so far.  Another shot whiffs. Panty Thief finds Candy Corn's halberd splitting his skull. Just because you're top dog in your division doesn't mean you're not outmatched by the rest of the teams. Final Score The Plump Helmets: 1 Spooky Scary Skeletons: 4 Kills Candy Corn Tiger: 3 Three Gremlins in a Blender: 1 James LargeSausage: 1 Combat Log
