Title: Duels
Description: well what else could it be about?
Kiekan - May 15, 2003 09:59 PM (GMT)
lol! 19 sided? now thats somethin to think about.....heh
Kiekan - May 16, 2003 01:00 AM (GMT)
No, ive used lots different types of dice, though they are always even number sides. Instead of 19, it would be 20, stuff like that.
Kiekan - May 16, 2003 03:18 PM (GMT)
He made dice? How did he do that??
Kiekan - May 16, 2003 07:38 PM (GMT)
Cool, i would do somethin like that, but im FAR to lazy to put in the effort to make the dice decent looking. They'd probably just look like a hunk of wood with numbers carved into 'em.
Kiekan - May 21, 2003 03:58 AM (GMT)
Tokki, don't get too full of yourself, I too am far better when it comes to fighting. And to be honest, I really don't think you could defeat someone of my fighting abilty.
Kiekan - May 21, 2003 12:42 PM (GMT)
Well.... uhh thanks. But anyhow, you should never underestimate your opponents, just a word of warning...
Kiekan - May 21, 2003 07:42 PM (GMT)
Kiekan - May 21, 2003 09:15 PM (GMT)
Yeah, I can back myself, Im not the least bit worried, Rayo.
Kiekan - May 28, 2003 08:18 PM (GMT)
You could always use the common style used by the Ayenee RPers on Yahoo! (such as myself, heh). Its a turnbased system, in which each person types up an attack, the longer it is (meaning more descriptive) the stronger. For a person to dodge/block/counter, they much either match or surpass the number of paragraphs which the attacker used. Though, the dodge/block/counter must be phsically possible. And the Mods could be like Refs, and keep order and decide things such as battle of strangth (like if two people of different levels sword clash against each other, each person is pushing back to overcome the other..... the mods would decide who wins)...... I don't know.... just a thought......
Rayo - May 21, 2003 07:48 PM (GMT)
Everyone, please don't be warning everyone else. Hehe. Unless you can back it up. If you guys go at it you wll certainly be dueling...and those could get ugly.
Shadowfyre - May 21, 2003 03:57 AM (GMT)
Me too fathom...team duels, each person from each team battles eachother. Teamwork! Thats what I call fun, and friendly...unless its a duel to the death, which I doubt. :lol:
Angelus - May 14, 2003 05:05 PM (GMT)
That sounds like a great idea, but make sure people actually fight fair and not "I hit you, you die". Make sure to add penalties as well. Also, why not leave an area designated only for Member killing (i.e. Corrupted Killing Holy Ground), that means no monsters. And also, why not have the winner at least resurect the loser? I'm sure everyone hates to die, but hates it more if someone ignores them and just leaves them dead.

drums in the backround
Bum bum BUUUUUUUUMMMMMMM
The return of the 19 sided dice
LoL
Angelus - May 16, 2003 12:29 AM (GMT)
You've never used those uber-sided dice?! I had one with around 40 sides. It was very spiffy.
Is that what your talking about Tirath?
Angelus - May 16, 2003 02:47 AM (GMT)
Oh yea, my very first D&D friend used to make dice. He made me a special 19 sided-die. To this day, I stil lhave it, but I never use it any more.
Angelus - May 16, 2003 07:31 PM (GMT)
Easy. He took a tree branch, and started carving. He even made his own runes from buck horn. It was amazing just watching him work.
Angelus - May 16, 2003 08:48 PM (GMT)
I tried to carve some dice once...I ended up with toothpicks. But one of these days, I'll try again.
Tirath, so when is the PvP gonna come up? And is there some certain level you have to be at?
Angelus - May 21, 2003 06:03 AM (GMT)
Tokki, you won't insult Kiekan, Shadowfyre, fathom or I? Choose carefully LoL
Angelus - May 21, 2003 01:53 PM (GMT)
ok, now who are you warning? Tokki or I? So much vagueness on this board......
Angelus - May 22, 2003 06:41 AM (GMT)
Oh, let 'em fight...let the animosity build up! Makes for better fight scenes =oD
Angelus - May 22, 2003 04:11 PM (GMT)
Ok, most wins, wins...what about a tourney type setting? Such as Fight until there's only one man left (ex. the Sweet Sixteen)
Angelus - May 29, 2003 04:21 AM (GMT)
Ok, Tirath is gone...so I've been working on the Player vs. Player fighting, and I'm sure you read about the tounament, but there's a nasty problem. I've read 5 different GM books, and nothing comes close to .HACK fights, so I get to creat D&D type rules! Pray for me...this is going to be the longest weekend for me.
Angelus - May 29, 2003 06:07 AM (GMT)
Here's hoping...I'll be borrowing from other GM books though...but the armour, magic, HP, and SP will be a hassle.
Angelus - May 29, 2003 04:28 PM (GMT)
Tokki, I'm really getting sick of you always making me a power freak. First, Seph. disappeared like a fart in the wind. That left the ARMY leaderless, so I stepped up and took over. Sencondly, I want this tournament to go smooth, and since we han't heard from Tirath on any types of rules, I thought I'd make up some. If Tirath has rules, fine! Please tell me them! But Tokki, quit it!
Angelus - May 29, 2003 06:03 PM (GMT)
Why don't you get off your high horse, and join the rest of us lowly members?
Tirath - May 14, 2003 02:16 PM (GMT)
Well I still have to talk this over with the other mods and of course with Gingi and Nall, but we are hoping to set up a system for players to fight one another.
At the moment I'm looking over some rules set by Myk and I will let you all know as soon as possible what kind of system we will be using.
If anyone has any suggestions then they are welcome
Tirath - May 15, 2003 02:14 PM (GMT)
Well as far as ressurect, that is not necessary.
There can be no rewards for duels and there is no special field for them. You just let me know and I will create a topic in the sub plots section.
Duels are fought on a post per post system, after which I will caculate the damage, based on level, technique and most important...
How well and fair you post. That is what this rpg is all about, posting well.
May the best post win!
I do have some difficulty with deciding damage, though I believe i will adopt a Dungeons and Dragons system of rolls.......
Tirath - May 19, 2003 01:20 PM (GMT)
hmm...
Well to be honest... :unsure: , i haven't actually finished coming up with a system, then it has to be aproved......
Plus, i just got back on my own computer. Actually thats a good thing, it means i will have the time i said i did before.......
So, to be honest i'm not sure yet, its just an idea we're playin with
Tirath - May 22, 2003 02:52 PM (GMT)
team duels may come about, but it will be a seris of one on one duels. Kindda like a tournement. It would be just too confusing to have several members fighting at once.....
the team with the most individual victories wins...
Tirath - May 28, 2003 06:14 PM (GMT)
That willl be a special event. In fact, when that happens i believe we have authority to issue prizes to 1st and 2nd place. Lets not get ahead of ourselves
the earliest you will see a duel is june 12, the day after i graduate :lol: . Simply because i don't have the time to judge such a thing now.
Tirath - May 29, 2003 02:52 PM (GMT)
Tirath is not gone and i don't apprciate people taking my responsibilities...
I understand that i haven't been on, but i still don't want people undermining me.....
I have already come up with a system, but it will not be put into place untill at least june 12 got it?
Tirath - May 29, 2003 07:36 PM (GMT)
I would like to clarify some of the rules for you all. Dude if you haven't been authorized by Gingi or Nall, then I don't want to hear about you "Steping UP" when i can't. I've been giving up lunch and study hall for the past month just to keep up with running the item shop while my computer was down. If I can't anwser fast enough for you thats just too bad, because i am doing all i can.
As i said, no duels will take place untill June 14, 2003 (sry but as it turns out the 12th is my graduation rain date, besides that means the first duel comes on my birthday :D ) at the earliest as I have little free time. After that they can start.
So here are the rules as of now
1. Duels will only be fought one on one
2. Those fighting with a higher level character will have a handycap, regardless of posting ability
3. If a mod(me) determines that a level diffrence is too great, the challege is null
4. No Gold, Items, or Experiance will be awarded for duels
5. Duels will be fought on a post per post bases
6. Post may only name one attack and one response(defense), no one player can write whole battles
These are only the basic rules, there will be more, but since people have been using this thread to argue i believe player input is no longer desired. I or the other mods will keep you informed on this subject, but don't get all impatient on me.
Bubba - May 28, 2003 06:46 PM (GMT)
I can already see that hariballs will be flying..... But who cares... mabye you could have special attack modes, that only allow certain styles of combat in duels...
ummm ooorrrr... you could have a silly combat system like this..
(Each person PM's a moderator about where they strike and where they move to, then the moderator posts something such as...)
Grid:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16
A
B
C
D
E
f
F
g
G
h
H
I
J
K
L
M
Bubba moves from B2 to A3 and swings toward B4, while Bubba2 moves from B4 to C3 and swings toward B3.
(directions are to grid, not character... left is left side of grid, up=top, ect..)
Bubba2 slashes to the left while running to C3, hitting Bubba who stepped onto C2.
Batleship sunk :blink: ... er... Bubba takes 2 damage.
(dashing attacks do decreasing amounts of damage according to how much area they cover)
Or something like this... but there's probably something better...
Bubba - May 29, 2003 05:02 AM (GMT)
E-gadds... I don't thnk I could stand to type super-huge paragraphs about what happened in order to attack or defend... aahh.. that just scares me... oh well it could work.

so what about the team duels, sounds good, or what
people i will beat you all down if you dont stop fighting, were to caht about duels not fight
Tokki - May 20, 2003 06:45 AM (GMT)
Oh my goodness...
If you open up something for the players to duel each other--- It would be SO great. A dream come true for someone like me really-- someone who's finesse comes in when writing battle scenes.
So Tirath-- COME ON! Get this show on the road. I'm anxious to wipe the floor with these people. (In a.. friendly way, of course.)
Tokki - May 21, 2003 05:23 AM (GMT)
That's humorous. Ask anyone who's seen me write, and they'll tell you otherwise. BUT..
I have read your posts and I do like your writing style so I wont insult you at all. Keep up the good work.
Tokki - May 29, 2003 02:58 PM (GMT)
*Chuckle* I can't help but laugh at Dude who's been taking this "need for power" thing out on the entire board. First not waiting for Sephiroth, the Army of Darkness leader, to resurface from whatever he may be up to, and now trying to take over Tirath's duties. Well it looks like Tirath has put you into play ANYWAY.
Tokki - May 29, 2003 05:42 PM (GMT)
Everywhere you post you're whining. Stop being such a baby.
