Hmm...that is a good point...

though generally I've find the story-arcs in WotW to be quite engaging.

@GreivousKhan

Story arcs are only as good as the writers who want to invest in them. NoW has story arcs that can be exploited and examined but few people do so.

@Skallagrim

I think it depends on what you are fighting for IC wise. I think the second WOTW had this whole holy grail war wish thing going for it. So you ended up with allot of pretty good and believable reasons for people to enter the tournament in the first place. I believe Asperger (or whatever her name was) made a character was was basically fighting for the soul of her daughter.

Stuff like that you remember.

Sigurd was trying to get rid of all the damn dragons everywhere in Skyr- his homeland.

Though I don't remember what WOTW that was numerically, I think the 1st one was lore, so probably third?

@MelonHead

You didn't exist when the first one came around, you showed up at number two if I recall. The same one Guru made Sikako almost rage quite.

Poor guy. He was pretty god compared to allot of those who joined, but never got to the second round in either of the two WOTW he joined in. Partly due to being set up against very good fighters at the very start. His goal literally came down to just surviving round one at some point.

@GreivousKhan

Sikako is an excellent fighter, he almost knocked me out of NoW in round 2. It's a shame he was knocked out of WOTW, as his character was interesting and his opponent ended up quitting anyway.

[Descartes]

Yeah. Do we get a cool backstory for Darkness Rising?

^^^^^^^^

[Skallagrim]

What you want a story too?

[GreivousKhan]

@Skallagrim

I think the question was geared to "what are we fighting for?"

A variation of why are we fighting in the first place. I was interested in hearing what you might have in mind. Cause it would be possible to tie it into the next chapter of the multiverse in a meaningful way.

[Rilla]

Bam.

Fake story: Liaison, otherwise engaged, contacted the NoW people about hosting a tournament in his stead. They agreed, for a price, which included potential talks about a more... permanent working relationship.

[MelonHead]

The Liason is a vicious businessman though, where-as the NoW seems all mystic and mysterious, they don't really seem that applicable.

[LeeRoy]

@MelonHead
Yeah, they do seem kind of incompatible, but isn't irregular discourse the theme of Multiverses, though?

[DJAtomika]

Yeah Rilla approached me to write the letter. I felt it would be kinda appropriate to give my Outlaw the honour of that letter.

I still haven't finished his powerset though.

[Rilla]

Liaison is vicious, but he is a businessman. If its good for what he needs, he'll do it.

[ImportantNobody]

Evvie's letter will be written in crayon and saying how awesome she was. Not quite the emotional impact. XD

[Skallagrim]

Liaison is vicious, but he is a businessman. If its good for what he needs, he'll do it.

@Rilla

It's all about licensing fees and merchandising with Liaison. NoW t-shirts with the Dreaming Queen or Skallagrim sellout bigtime. Not to mention the pay-per view and home dvd markets.

<Snipped quote by MelonHead>

I haven't posted the rules yet, but I am doing a limited capacity on firearms to 5 round magazines, with a 10 magazine limit per firearm. Now I will also limit the number of firearms to something logical and not have walking armouries.

@Skallagrim

How will this affect unconventional firearms, for example, those with effects that can also be produced by magic? Energy weapons, flame, electrical, etc.

[Skallagrim]

Rules for this NoW are up. Darkness Rising

@Dymion It depends on the weapon and is judged on a case by case basis.

[Descartes]

I might just open up a racing RP a la Redline, but more metal. It will be funk and metal. FUNKMETAL.

[Darth]

Wait, what. I just posted a profile and alignment/text size aren't something we can change in our posts?

..why

Or am I missing something?

EDIT:: Apparently I was missing something. It uses center, instead of align=center, although I'll have to piss about with text sizes.
