Hello!

I'm Pollen, hope you're not allergic. I like writing a myriad of characters in all kinds of genres, so I'm pretty much down for anything roleplay-wise.

Come talk with me if you want! I'm friendly.

IC POST IS UP EVERYONE!


Oh wow- it's been there for a while and I didn't notice! Thanks for getting it written though (it was a funny one too :D )

Will try to get one of my own up sometime later today.
@Hellis Don't starve us soooooo....
@Drifting Pollen

Can you go ahead and pair Gigue and Gonad up, if @Vordak is okay with it? I like to keep things hot and moving!


I'm gonna say no, not yet at least. It might get things moving now, but it would only mean more waiting down the line, and would get things out of sync for the remaining contestants. I might allow fights to start early if both fighters are okay with it, but not this early.

(Give it another few days tho...)
@Drifting Pollen

How do i end a forfeited fight? Any specific rules or IC details?


There's nothing you really need to do... I've already moved you through to the next round on the bracket, so you can have Gigue just show up victorious if you want and leave the details vague.

If you want to write an ending to the fight IC, then that's fine too, though you may want to check with Scarifar beforehand.
And Gutter is now hiding under the table. Crowds of people and being in a lit up area worry him greatly.


Oh dear :O

(Why'd you mention everyone under the post though?)

Anyways, looks like everyone's got their characters in... @Hellis, you want to post to start the next round, or do we just go ahead and keep things rolling?
Sorry, guys, I think I'll be dropping out of this. Got a bit too much going on right now to give enough time to this. So... yeah.


Sorry to hear that :(

Thanks for participating so far. Shame we didn't get to see Shen fight... ah well. Maybe some other time.
Awwwww, the killer robot's being a gentleman!

I swear, most of the villains here are cuter than the heroes :P
Sweet post from Skillshot there :)

Anyways, now we have an aging gangster and a homeless inventor with a monkey. Can't wait to hear from them!
You'd think so, but usually when someone writes something they write it because they're certain it will work. So confronting someone on something they're sure of is pretty difficult, it's like how often do you think you've managed to debate someone successfully enough to change their opinion on something? It's hard as hell. Judging from a third party is just fairer and takes the bite out of OOC arguments and whatnot.


Then how do so many fights in the Arena proceed without a judge's intervention?

How did Doc Doctor and DJAtomika finish their fight without ever needing me to step in?

How have I myself been able to work out differences with my opponents in similarly technical and competitive fights?

As I said, I understand it is helpful to have a third party around to decide things sometimes. But you should at least freaking try to understand where the opponent is coming from, and cite what is written in the fight (or in outside sources) if you feel they may need convincing.


@Chimera I'm going to have to ask you two to work those details out between yourselves, if you can? I'm fine with stepping in when you get stuck on a major disagreement, but I'm not here to referee every minuscule detail of the fight.

@MelonHead Seems fair enough to me. As I mentioned above, though, Chimera's the one you'd want to work things out with.

Tldr; I'm here if you need me, but honestly a lot of this stuff should be fairly simple for both of you to figure out and/or compromise on.
