Round 8
SSBB = Super Smash Brothers Brawl
To all of those interested in joining, there are no sign ups. You can just start playing right off the bat. If you need additional help, I am here most of the time and more than willing to try to help as much as possible.
Story as of now:
- Dark Trooper pic from Star Wars .com’s Databank
The Pokeball falls back to the ground and slams into Reno’s head.
Reno: Ow!
Joanna: Be a man. It wasn’t that bad.
Joanna picks up the Pokeball and frees Fushigibana, who uses an Earthquake to damage Sonic, Yuna, and Kirby for -3 damage each. Kirby gets upset at the hurt and grabs Ness. They conspire for a moment then activate their Faction Ability.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Snake: It was nothing! What happened was...
Pit: The Dark Trooper shot at you, and you fell over, dropping your gun.
Meta Knight: The weapon discharged spraying bullets everywhere. It was only luck that you barely missed me and hit the robot.
Snake: But you were the one that tackled the kid and sent one of his daggers flying at my head!
Pit: Then you threw a grenade at me!
Snake: Hey! You dodged it, and it landed in the Metal Gear. If I didn’t throw it, that thing would still be alive!
GM: Well that is an impressive story.
Munro: But it is all wrong.
Snake glares over at Munro who has arrived to investigate. Munro has a tricorder out and is taking readings.
Munro: I am detecting an infestation of nanomachines in the electric and hydraulic systems. They appear to be systematically destroying the Dark Trooper from the inside out. The bullets and grenade barely scratched the droid.
GM: Well, that is anticlimactic but still cool. Collect the remains for study and move out.
Snake: Don’t we get a reward or something?
GM: For screwing up and lucking out? Not really, but you can help clean up. Get them some brooms.
Some brooms are handed over. Snake grumbles and starts cleaning.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Elsewhere in the arena, Emeralda and Elly have rejoined their friends to watch the battle. On one of the monitors is a report on the destroyed Dart Trooper.
Bart: Hey, kid. Why all the smiles?
Emeralda:
Glances at the report. No reason.
0500/1700 Rule: Regardless of when the last update occurred, you may make actions
after 5AM/PM your time zone. There is no need to wait for an update to make an action, but it is recommended. Any actions that break this rule will not count as a legal action and will be promptly (eventually) pointed out. If you miss one of the posting periods, you will not get an extra move. I will allow posts +5 minutes in so you don’t have to rush your action.

Specials follow the same format where appropriate.
Specials and weapons should be used before regular attacks can be used.
Special users can defeat one 1 or 2 HP NPC of their choice in addition to their special use (meaning without targeting the NPC with the special).
Super Smash Attacks (SSA): SSA actions are powerful, character-specific moves with special effects. They can only be activated two ways and usually involve the character being removed from the game (see below) for a short time. The SSA use counter does not reset until all characters have used their SSA. To activate: either use a Smash Emblem or buy it with some points. They may not be ready at the start of the game, but I’ll finish them as soon as possible.
Removed from the Game (RFG): Unlike in Magic: The Gathering, this is not a permanent effect. Characters removed from the game cannot attack or heal but cannot be targeted. They return to play after a set amount of rounds. At least three characters will remain in play at all times.
Special Character - Gogo: Due to Gogo’s unique nature, I will post his information every round. If there are any questions, PM me, and I will willingly help.
Gogo cannot attack or heal. He is active every round. He has only one special which he uses every round.
Special: Mime: *Gogo copies the last action done (the post above this use). *Gogo’s user may choose new targets. *If a special was used, Gogo receives -3 damage in addition to the special’s effects. *Cannot mime SSAs or actions in the GM’s posts. *Cannot be the first action of the round. *If Gogo is not used, he automatically heals for +1 HP each round, but he starts with 30 HP at the beginning of the game. *He counts as male for gender related contests.
Sample use:
Code:
[b]Gogo mimes [Last Character Used] and [Copies the last action as player sees fit][/b]
Starting/Maximum HP = 50
Factions
Castlevania: +30 - Vampire Slayer - Characters can automatically defeat two NPCs with 1, 2, or 3 HP or defeat one 4 or 5 HP NPC in addition any other actions this round

Mushroom Kingdom: +50 - Mega Mushroom - All members deal double damage for the rest of the round, but cannot use weapons. Negative side effects are doubled for members

Round 8 Announcements:
1:
Both Brackets are Active!
2: Ah! Brackets are back. Here is a little reminder on how they work since the link above may not be too clear. Since there are too many characters, they get split up during the week to limit the number of targets. Active Characters (ones you can use and target) are in red. Inactive Characters (ones that cannot be used or targeted) are in white. When a Bracket is made Inactive, each member is healed for +1 HP. I will post this again tomorrow as a reminder. The Bracket Members change at the start of the week.
3: Also, we get our first Faction Ability of the game. This time Kirby and Ness of Dream Land get their dues.
4: The reorganization this round is simple. Thirty-five from the top and bam goes the Brackets.
5: I would like to thank all of those (except Ryan) that I put on notice for their very generous donations.
6: The Pokeball was chosen via a coin toss since there were two I really liked.
7: Again, I have to wonder how Christopher knows all of my planned plots before they are posted.
