Geez3r Posted December 19, 2009 Posted December 19, 2009 Here's the OOC for the fundraiser thread. It's about an hour before the actual event starts, but a bunch of time has been given for the heroes to socialize with the crowd. There's a steady stream of people filing into the Dome, and right in the main grounds Lisa from channel 7 news to get a few words with the heroes before they head on into the arena. There's also a few of the orphans with Lisa who want to meet their "favoritest hero ever!" before the big event. Take it away, and remember to ham it up.
quotemyname Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 "Did I ever tell you about the time I was on a pirate ship?" "No. Did you call it: 'Aquaman's Pirate Ship Adventure'?" "No! But that's a good one!" Holy ham sandwiches batman!
Gizmo Posted December 21, 2009 Posted December 21, 2009 "Outrageous! What miracle is this?" "As the Atom, I can shrink to the size of a subatomic particle and ride electrons along the phone wires." *beat* "Do it again!" Like Jack would miss out on a little theatrical sparring!
Geez3r Posted December 31, 2009 Author Posted December 31, 2009 Okay, before we get to the matches themselves, we actually need to figure out who's fighting who. They should be reasonably well matched between one another. However, due to Jack's and Colt's use of weaponry, they may be forced to use a boxing glove tipped rapier and boxing glove bullets respectively Anyone have certain requests one way or another for who should fight who?
Gizmo Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 I guess Jack could just fight unarmed. He'd be in a tight spot against some of those high-Toughness heroes, though! Darn Colt's wacky coat! Cowboy science is the toughest science of all. Regardless, I don't have any preference for match-ups. That's what all those Bluff abilities are for, amirite?
angrydurf Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 Likewise I'm game to try my hand against whoever. Though I'm not sure if Ace can get past Atlas' impervious even with power attack.
quotemyname Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 Boxing glove bullets? *Points to variable descriptor 2* I got this! We could just impose a certain PL limit / tradeoff or something and set everyone equal, and just use our descriptors to make things interesting. Just a thought. EX. We all get boxing gloves that make us punch just so hard, and no harder or something.
Geez3r Posted December 31, 2009 Author Posted December 31, 2009 That and its for charity, we flat out pull our punches. We're not trying to beat the snot out of each other here. Probably.
Cyroa Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 Probably? *flexes his cosmic power muscles* "Can't we all just get along?" ;)
Heritage Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 Hmm, who would Grim be most easily matched with, maybe Jack? Or should the young lovers go toe-to-toe? :twisted:
Gizmo Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 *flexes his cosmic power muscles* Now, would those be regular muscles that just happen to be infused with cosmic power, or does Darkstar have like an extra set of glutes for controlling forces beyond the ken of man? I always though he was kind of uptight, but really he's just flexing his cosmic power muscles! It explains so much! Hmm, who would Grim be most easily matched with, maybe Jack? I'd be fine with that, certainly. If we're talking about pulling punches, maybe we could just go to a certain number of successful hits? Or the fight ends once somebody reaches a certain number of bruised conditions? The former might favour high accuracy, low power competitors a little too much, but the latter captures the feeling of a friendly boxing match a little better, I think.
Dariusprime Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 I'm not sure what modifiers we should use, but an Ace/Colt, Grim/Jack and Atlas/Fulcrum fight would seem like a good match up in game. Maybe announce them with hyperbole and salted ham? The Duke of Danger vs the Cunning Cowboy! The Pixie Pugilist vs the Swordsman of Swash! The Red Roller vs the Caped Cruiser! Or maybe something more creative and less silly? ;)
Geez3r Posted January 5, 2010 Author Posted January 5, 2010 A little more rp, or do you guys want to get the bouts underway?
Gizmo Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 I think we should get the bouts started pretty soon. Are we doing them one at a time, with the other participants as spectators, or all at once?
angrydurf Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 Should probably get the bouts started, plenty of opportunity for banter during the bouts and we'll need to get started if we want to wrap this by the end of the month :D
quotemyname Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 Yea, do the bouts! I like the one at a time idea. That way the rest of us can throw our witty banter in when the others are fighting
angrydurf Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 I figure we should clarify this before hand. What kind of equipment are folks using, or leaving out? Like are we keeping our armored costumes but no weapons? Doesn't make a big difference to me but I figure I should clarify before we end get to rolling the dice :)
quotemyname Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 Should we have the opponents decide? I'm okay with anything really. Colt isn't the best melee fighter, so you can already guess where this one is going.
Heritage Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 Grim can summon folding chairs out of thin air! Whack!
Gizmo Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 Speaking of which, and at the risk of getting ahead of ourselves, how do you want to play the second bout, Heritage? Claws vs. swords, or straight-up unarmed boxing? Jack hurts a little more from losing his weapon of choice, but Grim's already got the advantage in terms of PL and Powers, so I could go either way.
angrydurf Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Well the spirit of the event seems to be no weapons so I assume we're not going in armed (Grim and Jack may decide to do something different it sounds like) So you want to do this with armor or with out quote? Doesn't really make a difference to me.
quotemyname Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 If the gloves are coming off, so should the coat, I suppose. Without it is. Totally gonna get my ass kicked ;)
