Round 53
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:
- My uncle pic taken by my cousin Emily for me to use.
The Tonberry ‘doinks’ Alucard for -5 damage. Keith declares ‘Kweh!’ and runs over to Joanna. He hugs her healing both for +2 HP. Kirby grabs the Smash Emblem. The puff ball starts glowing. He pulls out a chef’s hat and a giant pot of boiling water. Kirby grins and starts eying the others.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Except for Sephiroth, all of his allies seem a little stunned at Kirby’s transformation.
O’Malley: That little ball of fluff is going to defeat them all?!
Doc: I think it is cute.
Ridley: Better than a penguin being their doom.
Sephiroth: Darkja.
A burst of dark energy blasts Ridley.
Sephiroth: What Kirby does is of no matter to us. All that is important is that our stratagem is working.
Colonel: And what is that exactly.
Sephiroth: Blizzaga.
Ridley is frozen in a block of ice. All will be revealed in time.
Colonel: Do you always have to beat Ridley up?
Sephiroth turns and looks at the Imperial colonel then back to the monitors.
Sephiroth: Aeroga.
A blast of wind sends the Ridley-cicle flying.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Snake and friends have regrouped and are continuing their search, with the added weight of a few werewolf pelts.
Leon: No, no, no! Picard could totally take Kirk. He has the better ships and was required to study all of Kirk’s tactics in grade school.
Sam: But Kirk is always thinking on his feet. We would be able to fake his own tactics and really do something else.
Leon: Picard would see right through that. Plus, he has Data.
Sam: Hello! Spock!
Chief: Fellas, fellas. I think we can all agree that Janeway is far superior. She has studied both Kirk and Picard. Even with just
Voyager, she was able to bring down the Borg. She negotiated peace with Species 8472, and let’s not forget Seven of Nine.
All three stop and get lecherous grins while thinking of Seven of Nine.
Kratos: You guys are pathetic. Xena was better than them all.
Sam: Xena?
Leon: Number Three.
Sam: Ah.
Chief: Three sucks. Now Six was cool.
Sam: Six!? Hell no! Boomer! She was awesome!
Leon: Please. Boomer was just a stop over to get Athena. Athena could take Boomer any day of the week.
Chief: Athena is just a watered down Sharon Agathon.
Leon: Sharon is Athena.
Sam: You know she was on Stargate once, right?
Chief: So was Dr Phlox and MacGyver. Big deal.
Ahead of them, Pit is listening in but is confused.
Pit: Does anyone get what they are talking about?
Snake: See, they were debating the classic Kirk vs Picard, but when Janeway was thrown into the mix, they brought up the best female sci-fi character debate. See, I am of the school that agrees in principal with the Janeway or Seven of Nine sides, but Athena is way cooler. One, she is a Cylon. Two, she is married to Helo, and he is cool. And finally, the whole revisioned Galactica is easily one of the best sci-fi shows of all time.
Pit:
Stares at Snake for seconds. Nerd!!!!!!!
Pit runs off once more.
Meta Knight: I am more of a Doctor Who fan.
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.

Example heal: ‘

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: (** = Active Ability)
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
Deep Space 9ers: +50 - Reflective Shields - All attacks directed at the members are reflected back to the attackers. Members can still attack
Dream Land: +20 - Skill Copy - Members may use any special belonging to any [Faction] member. (Check character guide or with the GM for specials)
Hyrule: +90 points - Magic Sack - Members may use any weapon unlimited times (weapon changes user after each use unless user can do unlimited attacks) (Check item guide or with the GM for items)
Independent: +0 - None (duh, they have no team)
Defeated - Kongo Jungle: +20 - Monkey Friends - When a member is attacked, the attacker receives a -1 damage counterattack for every -2 damage dealt to member (counterattack is rounded down)
Mushroom Kingdom: +40 - Mega Mushroom - All members deal double damage for the rest of the round, but cannot use weapons. Negative side effects are doubled for members
Pokémon: +50 - Pokeball - A random, unused Pokeball is activated. Members are immune to the effects

Sonic: +60 - Hyper Sonic Speed - Members cannot be attacked for the rest of the round. Members may still attack.

Round 52 Announcements:
1:
Both Brackets are Active!
2: This last subject was glad to help out, and I am more than honored to have had the privilege to honor him.
3: Today’s subject: William Reed. I know that none of you have possibly heard of him but to me, he is the most important person of the last 28 days. After getting a BA in psychology, William entered Naval Intelligence where he worked on missile identification. During Vietnam, he was assigned to aircraft carriers where he set up flights for sorties, missions and general reconnaissance. He then got his masters in psychology and went to teach high school freshmen in Harlem for a time. William then worked for CBS on cameras, lenses, and photo-optics. After a few other jobs, from working with handicapped children to owning an art gallery, William got a globe-hopping job with DuPont. [Side fact I picked up somewhere: if you open up almost any electronic device you have there is about a 80-90% chance you’ll find a part made by DuPont.] When working in Delaware, William married my aunt Mary. They found an ad for foster parenting and took in, and eventually adopted, the autistic grandson of Meriweather Lewis, my cousin Will. The family moved to California and had two kids, my cousins Emily and David. When time came for him to settle, they moved to northern California where the bought land and built a house. They continued raising many foster children along with their own family. They even adopted again, my cousin Ana. To me, William has always been a great influence on my life. He is always there for his family when anyone needed him. William is such a great person to be around, always willing to joke and debate and generally have fun. He is definitely the type of person everyone should have in their life. (PS: My mom is ‘forcing’ me to mention that he is a gourmet chef, but I say that is an understatement).
4: List of subjects (in no particular order): My uncle, Ali, NAACP, Dr Rice, Sen Obama, GW Carver, Hammerin’ Hank, Ray Charles, Oprah, Tuskegee Airmen, Tuskegee Institute, Booker T Washington, Air Jorden, Jackie Robinson, Buck O’Neil, Negro Leagues, Dr King’s ‘I Have a Dream’ speech, Bill Cosby, Associate Justice Marshall, Commander Uhura, Col Pitts, Guion Bluford, Tiger Woods, Smith & Dungy, Satchmo, the Hardest Worked Man in Show Business, the WWII Buffalo Soldiers, Jessie Owens, Frederic Douglas, and Harriet Tubman.
5: As promised, here are the other SSAs. You should have chose: Squall: Summon Eden: -10 damage to four characters and Squall. Squall is removed from the game for seven rounds.
6: J&L: Champions of Meridell: Stays active until used. When Jeran and Lisha reach 0 or less HP, they do not die, but they are returned with 15 HP. Jeran and Lisha cannot attack or heal for the next three rounds after use
7: Joanna: Walking Armory: Automatic. All of Joanna’s specials are active and can be used. She can also use one weapon of a player’s choice. Joanna is removed from the game for five rounds.
8: Little request (one Typhoon may like if acted upon): if Keith can be defeated on
(not before or after) Friday’s round (Round 55), that would make the Pokeball contest really easy to write for the next round. Just a little hint of what may be to come.
9: I might do more Smash Emblem ‘testing’ later.
10: Gee. Cloud and Beatrix have some similar skills. Thank you programmers at Square Enix
