Have you ever wanted to knock the crap out of your fellow Hallsians? Now's your chance!

The Lunatic Fighting League is a bizarre mixture of Battleground and Heroclix League where only your creativity and the votes of others will determine who wins and who is completely humiliated!

Taking place in the soon-to-be-reconstructed Gilmore Stadium, the Lunatic Fighting League will feature bizarre and dangerous scenarios that will test the mental abilities of the fighters while making the events even more entertaining for the bloodthirsty rabble!

BASIC RULES (First Draft)

While the LFL is no-holds-barred fighting where anything can happen and usually does, there must be structure in which the chaos can take place. These are basic rules that should be followed unless otherwise noted in scenarios or by Slovman.

Essentially, you'll be roleplaying as a fighter, sort of like our wacky comic book events we have around here. You'll "battle" a fellow Hallsian through posting back and forth at each other, and then a poll will open so that everyone can vote on who they thought was the most interesting and entertaining of the two fighters. Whoever comes out ahead in the poll after a certain time wins the fight.

Some rules for the fight itself:

- 10 posts per fighter, per fight.
- Posts must alternate.
- Match ends at 20 posts or 1 week, whichever comes first.
- 1 picture is allowed per fighter, per fight.

After that, how you fight each other is entirely up to your imagination. But I must stress that voters will be encouraged to choose the most creative of the fighters, so if you did nothing but say "I kill you" over and over in a fight, it's doubtful you'll get a single vote, let alone win. There will also be various scenarios and mid-fight events that I will throw at you from time to time, and if you just ignore these things, you'll be running the risk of losing votes.

The Lunatic Fighting League will consist of:
2 Exhibition Matches
10 Regular Season Matches
Playoffs (Probably 3 Rounds)

How fast the season goes will be largely dependent on the fighters, but at maximum, the whole thing may take almost 4 months. So if you think you'll be away from the Halls for a significant amount of time (more than a couple of weeks) in the near future, you might not want to sign up...but you'll still be able to join in the action during the Exhibition Season.

I must also emphasize that some trash-talking and chest-thumping will be allowed, as long as it's in good fun and kept mostly within the confines of Gilmore Stadium. Obviously, the moderators will step in if we feel something has gone too far, but if that's not the case and you throw a tantrum because you're being "picked on," don't expect too much sympathy.

But if you're cool with all that, are a member of the "Hallsian" group, and are ready to kick some ass, please sign up here!

Also, feel free to ask any other questions you might have.

Well, let me be the first to say that this sounds amazing, and I'm all-in. Er....not in a poker kind of way......I regret having said that, but am just too lazy to delete it.

Slov, this sounds awesome! I've been wanting an event where Leeds and I could face off against each other. To see which one of us truely deserves to wear the cape and cowl. This is gonna be so much fun.


So face me Leeds, if you're Batty enough. ph34r.gif
Slovman
I asked Thor665 about this beforehand, and he said he'd love to join, but he'll be out of town until the 16th, just before I would want the Regular Season to start. So consider this his sign-up, just so there's no confusion when I release the regular season schedule. wink.gif

You're on, tough guy. And I can tell you now, that everyone already knows that you're the batty boy around here, but I'm the one who's taking you back to Arkham...in pieces.

What the heck. I'll throw in my hat.

I'm guessing we're gonna have to have some sort of square off at some point - give the people what they want and all.

Prepare to eat Fruit Pies, bitches!

And once you're done eating, I'll kick your tubby asses!
Leeds Knight
Can we have a frat vs frat brawl as well?
Slovman
Well, not as part of the regular season...and I want to use the Exhibition matches to fine-tune the rules, so probably not this time around. Maybe once we get up and running for awhile, I can figure out some way of doing that as a special event.
Leeds Knight
I'll spar with you now if you like, so we can see how it'll run?

That's "spar" as in basic moves and posts?

Then everyone can see what'll happen.

Tell you what...if you show up for the Exhibition matches and are on pretty regularly from now on, I'll put you in the League. smile.gif

Name the time... I'm your huckleberry.
Slovman
Cool beans. We'll probably start exhibition matches next Wednesday, if not sooner.
DrQuinzel
Not berry-flavored.


Not huckleberry-flavored either.

Actually, I've never tasted a huckleberry, so I guess I wouldn't know...

I will need to hone my old skills for this as I will join in.

Actually, you are hereby disqualified for steroid abuse.
Revil Fox
Bathe in my blood all you want, it will only make you redder. And if you go swimming, a shark will eat you.
Slovman
Well, since I've already got way more people signed up than I ever expected, I'm gonna close sign-ups tomorrow night (Friday the 3rd). So if you're still wanting to be a part of the LFL, get that post in!

On Monday the 6th, the exhibition season will start. Feel free to pair off or challenge each other in this thread, and I'll use that to schedule. The exhibition matches won't count against your overall record.

On the 17th, I'll post the Regular Season Schedule, and we'll start play on the 20th.

Also, please give me two colors you'd like to represent you. I'll be using them in graphics for the fights, so I'd recommend staying away from black unless you just can't live without it. smile.gif

Green and light blue, of course.
Leeds Knight
Well if black's out, then I'll go with Dark blue and grey please.
Slovman
Black's not out, just restricted. It doesn't show up very well against the dark grey background here, so I'd prefer lighter colors for asthetics' sake.

But just so you know, I did a test with blue/grey, and it looks cool, so you should keep it. wink.gif
Leeds Knight
Right, well if you think it looks cool, then I'll bagsie it before that Twinky fella. smile.gif

Thanks Slov!
TheRidge
I'm signed up already right?
Slovman
I'll consider that post as your sign-up. wink.gif
TheRidge
Yippee!!!
Slovman
Here's a sample of the graphics:



CO and DrQ have the black, and it shows up well-enough, just not all that great.
