The Fourth Battle Arena Tournament: Re-Released with Never-Before-Seen-Footage

Good news, everyone! The Tournament's back!

The First Round has, by tradition, always been a four-way fight between the finest (and most bored) fighters in the Battle Arena. This time, however, we have decided to change things by having four-way brawls. I will not cease with the lame jokes. You have all been grouped this time in the order you signed up in. Don't you just love it?

To Everyone: I am the Judge. My word is final, so I don't want to hear about unfair judging. I hate everyone equally.

As per usual, we have the rules:

• You may only use one character per battle. A new character may be chosen for each new round. If, however, two or more of your characters are so heavily linked that they cannot fight or survive without the other, you may use them together.
  
• The tournament round will end in two weeks. This is simply a warning, as we've really never enforced this rule before. Be careful, though. There's a first time for everything.
  
• Lastly, winning your battle does not necessarily increase your chances of moving on. The actual outcome of the battle is rather irrelevant. Judges will be looking for skill, creativity, and good sportsmanship.

Now, the match-ups:

Set One
Puck
CourageWielder
Hippo Cloud
Zorolo

Set Two
Mr.Man
Lysis
insaney
king daphnes

Set Three
Kiriyama
Sabbo
Librairian
Halcyon Hero

Set Four
Silver
Daphnes
brokenjoker
MrRandom

Set Five
Wolfen
Kitsune
Sweet Simplicity
Preservoir

Set Six
LadyElvenarcher
Chozo
I)ragon11
Safer

Set Seven
Andurhil/Cookie
HitokiriChibi
avyuir
Venomous Ninja

Set Eight
Mokujin
Exarius
Awkin


Obviously, the first and last posters have an advantage in the actual battle. One decides the setting while the other may use strategy when picking their character. Don't expect, however, that this will alter your chances of moving on.

Name your threads "[Round 1]Whatever the heck you want."

*cuts ribbon*

You have failed, Honor. Ah, well. I shall defeat you in a later round eventually--provided that you don't get yourself kicked out before then. It shall be all the sweeter when I defeat you then.

Nooooo! Zorolo AND Puck?! I don't know much of CourageWielder's writing, but I am screwed. LETS DO THIS!

OMFG!! Power Shot do you want to kill me?!? I'm against HC, A/C and VN, I'm screwed T.T This is almost as bad as the last one >.>


soo . . who wants to start?

I seem to remember someone failing the first round once upon a time because they were too friggin' laaazy to get a post up.

Who was that?

Oh yes. It was you.

I don't remember that. However, I do remember trashing your ass in the first round--oh, wait, that was Angel. But still, I don't remember ever losing the first round to not posting. The third round, however . . .

But now! HH and Honor shall finally clash in the tourney!

I would prefer not to start my groups battle, though I'm screwed either way so it doesn't really matter

I do remember getting owned by Gracie and insaney in the first round. And as we all know, Angel is the suckiest thing since marthlz, so that wasn't that great a victory for you.

And yes, indeed. I'm already planning for your glorious, but inevitable, demise. In the writing sense anyway.

Pah! HH shall unlease his new character-in-creation upon you!


. . . Well, he might. It all depends. However, HH shall unleash Dante somewhere in the tourney! And HH will destroy Honor much like Rambo destroyed those pitiful Burmians, whatwith the machine-gun fire ripping off limbs and knifing people in half and tearing out their throats with bare hands and all.


. . . God, was that movie bloody. And so utterly depressing.

I'm going to get battled middle-aged-wannabe-style?

That's okay.

Rambo would've lost that movie if it were a contest.

Eek, Against Awkin. I have a feeling I am not going to make it out of this alive.

No, I said much like. I am going to pwn you in an utterly unfathomable, never before conceived series of amazing posts, with all the blood and carnage of Rambo.

...

In which case, I'm going to go Kenpachi on your ass.

Pfft.

Hitsugaya > Kenpachi. HH = Hitsugaya. HH > Honor.

Set Five
Wolfen
Kitsune
Sweet Simplicity
Preservoir

LOL'D.

I'd much appreciate it if someone else started it.

This will be a truly awesome fight. So who wants to start it? I don't want to, so that leaves Wolfen or Preservoir.

EDIT - I can begin if you like. Expect it up by Monday if you agree.

Calm down, it'll be fun. Anyway, Puck can feel good now. THis is the first tourney he isn't in a bad state as for whom he's against. This'll be fun. ^_^

I laughed a bit.

Then I laughed some more.

Hitsugaya could barely handle mini-spada Luppi, the tentacle freak, and still couldn't manage to kill him ... whereas Kenpachi spoilered the spoiler and is still spoilering. Hitsugaya would be spoilered by now if he were spoilering like Kenpachi.

*Laughs as he fills in the thoughts with what he knows* That's epic. Yes, no one quite spoilers like Kenpachi. After all, Kenpachi is the greatest king of spoiler, even when spoilered by the spoiler. In short: Kenpachi owns Hitsugaya with ease.

Two times I was up against Milady LEA in the first round. TWO FRIKKEN TIMES! *Eye twitch*


Sorry Hippo, and CW. As awsome as it would be for the newbs to shine in this tourny I know Zorolo aint losing, I sure as hell am not. So sit down and take your beating XP

And good luck.
