Manly Games Guild: Final Showdown

Post by asf »

If you are just arriving you can follow the drama in these threads:

viewtopic.php?t=2306-manly-games-guild
viewtopic.php?t=2373-manly-games-tiebreaking-poll

Once again the poll is tied, and once again we need to decide between the two runner games, are we playing Alien Legacy or jewing in Merchant Prince?

This time we will settle this in a proper manly form, in a tournament to death in m&b:warband. Since getting people online to play is a nightmare, we will do it in the proper way: each side will pick a champion and the two will duel to death in a match of m&b:warband. I can get you keys if you people are too cheap, I still got a bunch from olden days.

To make things interesting, the champion will cast the winning vote, so pick somebody loyal.

I will let the people who voted last time decide on who will be the champion, though we can also go with volunteers, we will see.

The rules will be as follow:

map is arena original;
faction can be any, I will let each champion change faction once during the match if they want;
first to get 15 kills is the winner;
starting gold is 1000, you can buy armor or any weapon, or w/e, no extra gold per victory
server to be defined

I used to be a master duelist in this thing, but that was 10 years ago, so pick somebody better. I will probably be online during the match to moderate.

Time schedule to be arranged with the champions.

Side bets will be allowed, be imaginative.

I have no clue how to play this game, does a brave condottiero want to take up the cause and fight for the merchant prince?

I really hope they kill each other at the same time.
I'm just stating the facts.
Question is are you going to gargle the truth or swallow?

What if we just have 2 equally matched AI duel eachother and each side choses a champion. It'll be like horse races or something, everyone loves horse races.

Remember the plan - we equally distribute votes between 3 champions. Keep upping the ante until asf is offering free video cards.

If we'd chosen something a bit simpler like UT or HL this could be done with already.

Very well, it was decided that @Oyster Sauce is going to fight A Chinese opium den in a duel to death. It will be a glorious duel I am sure, since one of the players never played this before.

The duel is to happen effectively immediately since no one has much patience. Let us wait for the results.

It was naturally a very glorious duel.

You can see the results here:

It seems Yasuke won, whoever he is.

Very well, you might now cast the winning vote.

as a conscientious objector I have to abstain as well, this duel was fought on aboriginal first nations peoples grounds and therefore isnt valid until we give the vote back to the true people of this land
