Remember, pages read from right to left. 😉 😛

I didn’t plan on drafting manga characters. But now I am really tempted just to mess with people.

Funny, that's the time when Scoob made his name too.

What can I say, I'm a product of the times.

😖hifty:

And what exactly was it that happened to your little team in that tourney?

Ironic, no? It's literally the one anime I've ever seriously watched.

I got whupped, as I should have actually. It's the only tourney I've ever been in that I don't think I should have won. I mean, come on. Apollo?! General Zod?! Loki?! I'm shocked I won anything at all. Ok, so Loki's not bad. I could do some good work with him. But still.

As I recall, it was Khell that knocked me out. By the time I won the FFA and came back, my loss to you was inevitable, because in those days any loss meant permanent loss in the judges and participants' eyes.

That's what issue limits for, usually. But for example, say, Malibu Comics characters can be more enigmatic to folks here than some manga characters.

As for FotNS, well... easily my WORST tourney attempt ever.

I honestly couldn't believe I found them (the entire manga series, plus FotBS sequel) in a downloadable and readable format.

Rather to say, underuse of potential. I did only 50% of what can be done, and ABSOLUTELY FAILED the Riddick battlefield (though I wonder what would have happened if me AND Smurph both stated killing Lord-Commander in the beginning of the match in our strats).

Hey dropping billion ton rocks was genius. I think we did well in that tourney.

I'd have to agree with Kandy. That was a pretty inventive plan.

Silent hill was just a terrible arena. We spent every match killing people by the tons and then that thing got thrown on us...

My team was murdering our own duplicates by the thousands. We never really had a chance once the match got started, and then the tourney ended so we never got to fight a semis match on equal footing. I'm torn with "inventive" battlefields. They can be awesome, but people (not just my team) have gotten screwed by them more than once, and I was the culprit once during one of the tourneys I hosted.

Magnifying the weight/density of a rock, and then dropping them was pure genius.

Or when they are so awesome that someone ( 🙄 ) has to close the match, make new rules to ban the inventiveness, and then make the match again instead of just letting the battle go as is.

On that note, I'm pretty sure Smurph and I are down to play again. I have a question though:

is the 150 point cap a bonus to the team we already have, or does the team we already have need to fit the 150 point cap?

Hey, the battlefields and stipulations were posted before combat began in my tourney. You guys were the ones that decided to go on the massacres.

The Season One salary cap was 125, so it's not so much a bonus as it is that if you chose to keep your roster from last season intact, you'd now have an additional 25 pts to work with on top of your current roster. If you chose to drop characters for more cap space you would have more points for selections in the draft, or you can wait and make moves through free agency afterwards. Whichever you decide.

Worked pretty sweetly. If only the tourney had continued...

Kandy any ideas for our team name?

So far I brainstormed "Outback Penetrators" or "Magnificent Bastards".peaches
