BULLDOG WINS THE ROUND!
In a frenzy of fighting,
BULLDOG has claimed victory this round with a score of
TWENTY FIVE POINTS! In second place is
G, who ruined Toaster's rally and battled a Balrog for
FIFTEEN POINTS! And while
SPARTAN scored zero points, at least he leaves the arena alive, which is more than five other combatants can say!
The first round took place in a
HISTORICALLY INACCURATE COLISEUM, and the second round was a
GRAPPLE IN GEHENNA, but the third round is to be decided by the round winner, and Bulldog has chosen!
It should be a dungeon, filled with deadly traps and dangerous monsters, as well as cursed and enchanted items. The spectator should be a wizard, who should teleport in randomly and cast various spells. In addition to picking a item, the players should choose a class, either fighter, thief or mage.
Bulldog,
G,
Spartan,
Powder Miner, and
Bob (played by antlion12) shall enter the
Deadly Dungeons of Doom in a quest to retrieve the
Amulet of Yendor while dodging traps, monsters, the mysterious Wizard of Yendor, and of course
one another!
While we wait on the new world to be generated, it's time for our first ever...
VIEWER'S CHOICE AWARDS!
Simply put, anyone who didn't compete in the round can vote on a few different categories- some give the winners points, and some are just for fun. I've come up with two categories to start with, if somebody has an idea for more give a holler!
Most Entertaining Fatality- simply put, who had the best death? This round has no shortage of frags to choose from- you can see how each player fared by following the link in the Leaderboard, but a couple noteworthy nominees would be Toaster's
multi turn rally before being coup de grace'd by G, and Gatleos's
Swordchuck self-decapitation after attempting to ride a Balrog to victory. Whichever death wins will bestow
ONE POINT upon the deceased, and
ONE POINT on the killer- it takes two to tango, unless you have swordchucks anyway.
Most Badass- in your opinion, who was the most badass this round? Bulldog is certainly in contention for his extremely high damage output (see stats to follow), but Gatleos's aforementioned Balrog ride is notable for its sheer audacity, and that Balrog would not be there to ride had Sinpwn not done the Safety Dance! With ten turns and five fatalities, there is no dearth of actions to choose from- if you'd like to read through the last round before making a decision, the first turn was
here. Whoever is chosen Round Two's Most Badass will receive
TWO POINTS!And finally, some achievements based solely off of the stats accumulated through a round of play.
DEADLIEST WARRIOR-
BULLDOG claims honors here, with two player kills and a whopping
TWENTY ONE points of damage dealt! For comparison, Micelus dealt the next most damage with
SEVEN. Truly, Bulldog was an avatar of destruction in Round Two.
LEAST EFFECTIVE-
SINPWN gets this "honor"- although he won the first round, in Round Two he scored zero points, got zero kills and dealt zero damage.
Sinpwn- 0
Gatleos- 4
Bulldog- 21
Micelus- 7
Toaster- 4
Jacen- 4
Hitty40- 7
Spartan- 4
UNLUCKIEST-
TOASTER can attest he is the least lucky, rolling an average of 2.8, the only combatant to average less than 3 per roll.
GATLEOS deserves an honorable mention, however- although he finished with a median 3.2, his repeated 1's on dodge rolls were the leading contribution to his early wipeout.
LUCKIEST- Although you might suppose Bulldog's damage output was a result of high rolling, it is actually
SINPWN who claims honors here, with a staggering average roll of
4.2! In case you were wondering, Bulldog actually averaged
third in rolls, with 3.5- Micelus beat him out with a 3.7
Sinpwn: Average- 4.2307
Gatleos: Average- 3.2
Bulldog: Average 3.5
Micelus: Average- 3.7
Toaster: Average- 2.8
Jacen: Average- 3.2
Hitty40: Average 3.25
Spartan: Average 3.2
With that, I'll let you folks get to voting, and I'll get to arena-genning. I'm going to go PM our new contestants
Powder Miner and
antlion12- give a holler in this thread even if you don't feel like voting, just so I know you're paying attention, guy/gals!
EDIT: @Jacen, don't worry, I saw you and you're back on the waitlist
