total: 1490, providing I did all the math right and skills work the way I think they do. If not, and I have more skills, groovy

Note to all readers:  Photobucket has taken down one of my fight images (from the NNMD vs Ditch Digger fight).  What is surprising, however, is that it was one of about two images from that fight that had no blood and very little nudity.  Most surprising of all, the image I uploaded prior to that image featured a graphic decapitation, and nothing has been done about that.  I think I might start uploading my pictures to DeviantArt if they don't have crazy rules.

Also, it appears that the final decision in battles was in favor of 3 out of 5 by matter of 12 to 5.

Round 7: Maunoir vs Hyperchicken

Maunoir, a fighter who proves that defense being the best offense isn't shitty strategy:

Hyperchicken, an intensely fowl fighter out to prove he's no cock-up.

Well, a second fight with absolutely no resistance from the opponent.  At least we finally had a limb-crushing good time.  Hyperchicken, you have 200☼ to spend on skills and equipment.

I go slice slice next rite? I go slice gud.

By the way how much do we get back when we sell equipment (if we can sell equipment)?

[crash2455]

You get half of what you sell.  Only equipment can be sold.

[CJ1145]

I'll upgrade my cap and buckler to iron.

Meh, Maunoir's been crashed under a mace. Mace VS Armor...mace wins!

Ok, my next fighter will be:

Name: Milleville

I think not, my friend. But rest assured, I have a nice place on my mantle set aside for your head.

Who is deadliest?

Today we finish the first tier of the Beta Tournament.  Of our two highly anticipated southpaw combatants, who will win?  Thanks to our computer simulator, designed by the minds at Bay12Games, we can see if Phoenix will "slice gud" or MJO625's mantle will finally receive a worthy trophy.

The Aftermath:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Okay, this is why I want to do best 3/5.  Phoenix actually put up a pretty good fight from the floor, but MJO still had use of her legs, and that ended up winning it.  Also, I had already played out the fight last night, so when MJO625 made that comment about beheading Phoenix, I laughed pretty hard.

MJO625, you have 200☼ to spend on skills and equipment.

Alright, so that's the end of the first tier of the Beta Tourney.  We'll return in a bit when all competitors have picked new equipment/skills.

[Zako]

I love the use of photoshop! Awesome stuff! Keep it up please!

[BloodBeard]

I jumped away with a broken spine, badass?

Not sure what to make of this, there's not a whole lot of room for improvement with my setup, and I tested this in WoA. Luck of the roll I guess. I'll wait to see what changes you might make but i'll reserve another dwarf for the next tourny.

Vogon poetry claims yet another life.

Alright, just so people stop posting characters that I can't use, I will be changing character creation the for the next tournament.  I'm thinking of reducing starting funds to $800 (it's just easier to type $ than ☼) and having every 2 skill levels grant a random attribute instead of 3.  I'll post this to the front page so that others can redraft their characters correctly.

Also, Zako, you did your skill totals wrong.  It should be 600 for level 2 shields (200 + 400) and 1000 for level 4 axe (100 + 200 + 300 + 400).

If I sound harsh right now, I don't mean to.  I appreciate all your support.  I'm just working on balancing right now.

[LegoLord]

Okay:  Dwarf is "Steve Enchantmentbreaker, Nerevarine.

Spoiler: Skills & Equipment (click to show/hide)

Sword level 2 (300), Armor level 2 (300), shield shield (200), novice wrestling (100)

Equipment:  All copper except for the sword and shield.
-helm (30)
-chain mail (120)
-chain leggings (30)
-Bronze shield (60)
-high boots 2x (60)
-gauntlet, left & right (60)
-Bronze sword (150)

So that leaves me with $100 (I think).

[Beanchubbs]

Haha!

Okay:  Dwarf is "Steve Enchantmentbreaker, Nerevarine."

Skills soon in this post

Haha! Morrowind for the Win!

[BloodBeard]

If you want my advice, lowering the starting money and attributes won't make things better. In fact I believe it would make things worse. The problem, as I discovered is that weapons in relation to armour of the same quality are far too overpowered. Lower the damage amount weapons do in the raws.
