 |

Right, I made an error of judgement editing my post on the last one. Anyways, a brand new EC vs Gaurdians Poll.
We have the majoritive of judges voting for Nets arena. So a repoll on match length, and we'll have the first match underway shortly me-hopes...

| Judges Discretion. Extensive time limits the poll suggests would not be worth gambling. Too short, and we might not see as much action as we'd like. Too much, and the fight might actually die out before time is up. |

| I agree with the Judges Discretion option. That way, we can make sure it will be interesting and fun. Not too long so it gets stagnant. Not to short so it doesn't even start. |

If Net would do the honours, and post up the first official match of the olympics. This thread is now for discussion of events in the match, whether or not any of you are to interfere, and also, at the end of the match, your actual judgement. Keep track of things that catch your eye, save you from forgetting anything you liked or didn't like.....

Welcome to the first round (and last) of the Team Olympics! We're here at Uncle Harry's Gigantanormous Space Zoo, which we've leased out as a field for our Olympic contenders to battle on!
As we all no doubt already know, Uncle Harry's Gigantanormous Space Zoo is a series of terraformed asteroids revolving around a near-dead sun that's been stabalized with Psychotopian Sun-Stabalizer technology! However, for the purposes of this match, said stabalizers have been DISABLED! So not only will asteroids be peroidically DISINTERGRATED by solar flares, the entire sun itself will go supernova if you don't get out of there in time, or at least find the secret asteroid control center in the center of the field and turn the stabalizers back on!
Now, there are five asteroids, excluding the ones our contestants start on! Our contestants will have to land on each. They can try skipping them, but their oxygen and fuel tanks will most likly die, leaving them to float in the vaccum of space with no life support for all entenity. Doesn'rt that sound FUN, kids?!
The path is simple, the EC start on one side of the belt, the Guardians on the other:
Plains (EC start here) - Jungle - Cliff - City - Volcano - River - Plains (Guardians start here)
And now for a quick explanation of your environment!
Plains: The perfect place to set up a mini-base, giant catapult, whatever tickles your fancy really.
Jungle: Watch out for Jaguars and other Jungle wildlife
Cliff: I hope you aren't afraid of heights, 'cause the only way out is down and we didn't pack you any absailing equipment. Watch out for the Pterodactyls that call this asteroid home!
City: Just like the first match, except by now the sun'll be about to go supernova and you'll be running to find the control center - Even if it means teaming up with the enemy!
Volcano: Can you get across a rickety bridge without falling into the lava-And before the volcano erupts? Urban legend has it that the Abominable Fireman lives here, so be veeery cautious.
River: The way forward is downstream, but can you avoid the rocks and fight off the currents long enough to survive these crocodile-infested waters? One wrong turn and you could be up the proverbial creek without a paddle!
Plains: See above.
Now, this will probably take a fair while to get through, so unlike last year where the fight ended half-way through, this time the judges will choose when to end the fight!
So without further ado, let's get ready to rumble!!!
*Is dive-tackled by dozens of Lawyers.* |
Good enough? I'd like to have one judge to control the environment on each asteroid (Except the city, as it pretty much has no environment). That means someone RPing alligators for the river, jaguars for the jungle, that sort of thing. Additionally, they'll tell the contendents when they come across the exit, find a niche in which to rest, et cetera. Otherwise it's just going to be too confusing and/or difficult for the contendents.

You'll also need to set ground rules for the oxygen and stuff if you're going have them in the fight. Considering that both teams are eventually going to (well, hopefully) come up gainst one another, aren't they...? Or is this more adventure based..?

They may or may not fight, it's up to them. Personally I'd prefer to see them co-operate. The Olympics aren't just about fighting, and there's a lot more skill involved in making two enemies co-operate believably.
I'll get right on a revised version with the asteroid-to-asteroid transport rules, thanks for reminding me  .

| But you'd need something for them to cooperate towards. It would be more difficult, but perhaps more rewarding for both participants and judges if we go the adventure route, but if we go the combat route it will be easier but less enjoyable. The possibility does exist however, that they can not cooperate, and then cooperation based would be a disaster. |

| Total annihilation by supernova sounds like a good enough incentive for cooperation in averting the disaster... |

If you re-read my post, you'll notice that the sun is about to go super-nova, and the sun stabalizers can only be reactivated from the control center in the center asteroid.

That'd still be pretty entertaining, and it probably wouldn't mean worse scores for either side.

It appears I already thought to include asteroid-to-asteroid transport.
Is anyone going to step up and lend a hand to control the environmental factors like aligator attacks, or will we let the contestants do that themselves?

| Sorry, I missed the supernova bit. It'll work just fine, then. And I'll be happy to do the environmental factors. |

And people say I don't read things! Most of Net's post was about the supernova!
Also, Net, you really do like blowing up the sun, huh? xD |

What I'm asking though is how much fuel is there and how much oxygen. And, are there actual pads to transport the characters from asteroid to asteroid, as you've not mentioned this, or are they going to have to find the ideal spot.
Considering you're putting life on the asteroids, this would indacte there's oxygen on them, and therefore each contestant can remove their gear.
I'm also highlighting this, in case there is conflict, as I doubt anyone wants to lose their characters in a mess of space goo or something....

They'll have to find the ideal spot. It's up to them as to when they go to the next asteroid, but I'll add an OOC tag and make it clear that it's in their best interests to make this entertaining and long-winded.
As for oxygen and fuel, their suits will regenerate fuel and oxygen while they're on the asteroid. Technically they don't have to worry about running out, but again, it's not in your best interests to jump around pretending you have infinite everything.
The contestents can remove their gear if they like, but then they'd still have to carry it with them, so it'd probably be easier to keep it on. Then again, if they take it off and a petrodactyl nicks it, I'm not complaining.
I want to leave the contestents with a lot of room to move, so to speak. I want them to have fun, screw arround a bit with some of the asteroids, not just recite exactly what I told them in the intro post.
Thanks for offering to help, Yoshi. Basically what you'll do is watch the RP as it goes along, and if we think someone's getting through it too easily you simply make a post in this thread telling people what we want to do, and if noone objects you post it in the thread and they have to deal with it.
So, say, if the EC's already halfway down the cliff asteroid and the Guardians aren't even past to river asteroid, you pick an EC member who looks promising (IE has a near-paralizing fear of heights) and make them slip up.
In other words, you create conflict for your own sick ammusement. I thought Raven'd jump all over it  .
And Raven, I have a vendetta against that sun. A vendetta. I'll teach it for calling my Mum a red dwarf...
