This is where you share thoughts and where Dragon Warrior will post the match results of the mech fight. C ya

Well, I'm a bit confused about how the mech battle is actually going to work out. Are we going to have to go by any special rules (and if so, what are they?), or is the judge just there to make sure that nobody gets out of hand? Oh, and is there any special way for the winner to be decided, or do those of us participating in the battle just need to reach an agreement?

Well, in posting in a judged fight in an RPG, there are certain things. One, you can't god-mod too much (A.K.A say that your opponent is losing horribly) Another is the winner is decided on post quality and length. Now, since this is a team battle pretty much, there will be some changes. Since it is two members fighting three members, then this might be a little complicated. But, if you need a good example of a member against member fight, then search for the Ultima Tournament posted by Ultamilz. As for this mech battle, there is something else that I feel there should be. There are only five gadgets/moves on each mech, so that the fight doesn't come to a never ending gadget using fight, with each mech having fifty different gadgets.

Personally, I don't think that any special rules are necessary. The 'no god-modding' one is a rule that applies to the entire Adventure Square (I've read the rules, and that's in there), and I think that having too many suddenly revealed abilities on a mech falls under god-modding. Also, I don't think that the winner should be decided by post quality/length (what the hell does that have to do with a mech battle?). Instead, I think that the winner (or winners, in this case) should be decided ahead of time by those participating (in this case, that's you, me, Kitty, and Rhym). If we can't decide, that's when a neutral third party should be brought in. But seriously, it makes no sense to decide the outcome of a battle on post quality, which is one of the reasons I never participated in the old Battle Arena (which has now been removed).

[color=blue][size=1]I agree, Takuya. You, Rhym, and I should decide either by PM or in this thread. Post length and quality does not suit [i]this[/i] scenario, though "Aqualaria" should offer other activities (competitions against the game itself, or NPCs or something) that could be decided that way... though an agreement reached by all participants should occur then, too.

As for a third party, haven't you already said Dragon Warrior would be the neutral, Albel? I believe you have. But, hopefully, we can come to an agreement without him... >.>;;

And for the abilities of the mechs, I'm drawing a blank. I have [i]no[/i] creative.. 'stuff' in me at the moment. (I'm not the best at that, you know.) But, if I were to think up some, I would definately post them here first, then in my post in the actual RPG thread just to make sure everyone's read them. So they [i]won't[/i] accuse me of god-modding. I hate that. >.<

And since I'm here... I might as well say who I think should win this fight. I think that Kitten's "team" should get either win or escape so that we can keep the characters connected (as in Takuya and Albel's characters with Rhym's, zisagawa's, and my own) and so the story can continue for a while as it has been going.

Just a thought.[/size][/color]

Well, with Albel's permission, I PMed you and Rhym. Read the PM for the details, but basiclayy, I proposed that Kitty and company escape, but that the Griffin gets destroyed. There's a bit more to it than that, so be sure to read the PM.
