WW CLV - Royal Rumble! (GAME OVER!! RESULTS START IN POST #1401)

[Chief Rum]

It's 1990. The World Wrestling Federation (WWF) has captured the hearts and minds of wrestling fans everywhere, with its over the top razzle-dazzle and petty intrigues. Such stars as Hulk Hogan, Randy Macho Man Savage, Andre the Giant and Rowdy Roddy Piper are at the top of the wrestling world, and Vince McMahon is king over it all.

But rumors of the expansion of the rival World Championship Wrestling (WCW) circuit abound. The WCW wants a share of the pie, too, and its promoters are willing to offer more power to their stars than the megalomaniac McMahon ever will. Stars may have been approached, offers made, terms exchanged. Would wrestling's brightest jump from the powerful WWF to the fledgling WCW? Or had some already done so?

The attention of wrestling fans everywhere focus on Orlando, where the WWF is about to host its third annual Royal Rumble, a marquis pay-per-view event in which as many as 30 wrestlers all descend on one ring and only one will leave victorious. The word is that the turned wrestlers will make their stand here, by winning the spectacle that is the Royal Rumble and then taking that glory with them to the WCW. It would be a massive blow to the WWF's popularity.

Can the stars of the WWF ferret out the traitors before they can win the Royal Rumble title?

Basic Rules

DEADLINES

There will be three deadlines in this game: the lynch, the night action and the fight.

Fight: 1 pm PDT (4 pm PDT)
Lynch: 7 pm PDT (10 pm EST)
Night: 8 am PDT (11 am EST)

The fight deadline is where the fight actions of all wrestlers will be announced. The lynch deadline is what it usually is, plus this will be when actual fights are resolved. The night deadline will be when all the night actions are due.

NOTE: There may be times when the lynch deadline is run late because of my second job. When this happens will be announced in advance. The lynch deadline will be run as soon as possible (usually by 11 pm PDT at the latest). There should be no other deadlines affected. All deadlines are strictly enforced at their set times, regardless of whether I am here to run the results.

TWO GAMES

There are two games within one here. One is your standard WW game, with WW roles. The other is the Royal Rumble, where you are all attempting to be the last wrestler standing. This other game will be fought through a series of head to head fights. Players can be removed from the game either through the WW game or through the fighting game.

CHOOSE YOUR WRESTLER

There will be 30 wrestlers listed in the next post. You must select a wrestler from the list to play.

Each wrestler has four attributes. One of these attributes will be the wrestler's top skill, while another will be his weakest. These are selected for each wrestler and cannot be changed, so choose your wrestler wisely.

The four attributes are Power, Technique, Agility and Endurance. Every wrestler will have a total of 22 points, and the player is responsible for distributing these points. The rules for distributing are that the top skill must have at minimum 8 points, and the weak skill must have at maximum 4 points. No other attribute can be more than the top skill, nor less than the weak skill (they can be equal). The total must equal 22 points, and this distribution is due along with the choice of wrestler. The wrestler choice must be made publically here in thread, but please send the point distributions to me only by PM.

ADDED NOTE: There is a minimum of 1 on every attribute. So you cannot assign 0 points to an attribute.

Outside of the preset top and weak skill designations, you are under no obligation to match the attributes to those of your wrestler in real life.

WRESTLER ATTRIBUTES

Power-- This is purely an offensive attribute and rates a wrestler's ferocity, natural strength and power of attack. You can inflict more damage with higher Power.

Technique-- This attribute relates to the wrestler's skill in executing fight action moves. It aids in both offense and defense, but it contributes more to offense.

Agility-- This attribute measures a wrestler's quickness, speed and agility. It aids in both offense and defense, but it contributes more to defense.

Endurance-- This is purely a defensive attribute and measures a wrestler's ability to take damage, handle pain and overcome fatigue. You can take more damage with higher Endurance.

VOTING

Every day, the remaining wrestlers will choose one wrestler to be lynched at the lynch deadline. This wrestler, outside of being saved by other game mechanics, will be removed from the game, regardless of his current ability and attributes as a fighter.

To vote for someone, bold, capitalize and enter your lynch choice VOTE CHIEF RUM on a separate line. You may unvote in the same manner. Unvotes must be completed before revotes are accepted from the same player.

Nightfall votes are allowed within reason, but I reserve the right to adapt this to each situation as it arises.

Self-voting is not allowed. Non-voting is not allowed. Both could result in damage or skill deterioration for your wrestler or removal from the game.

No Lynch votes ARE allowed. If the No Lynch votes hold a plurality of the vote, no wrestler will be lynched.

The wrestler with the most votes will be lynched, and the mechanic managing tie vote results is known only to me.

All votes will be accepted up to the turn of the hour (7:00 pm PDT/10:00 pm EST), and none will be accepted after (7:01 pm PDT/10:01 pm EST or later)

FIGHTING ACTIONS

Fighting actions are due to me by PM by the fight deadline. The default action with no PM will be Cautious Defense (explained in a post below).

Although fight plans may be announced in thread, you may be better served to keep those plans to yourself. All actions will be announced after the fight deadline, and fight actions for that day cannot be changed after the fight deadline. Fights will be carried out at the lynch deadline, BEFORE the lynch or any daytime WW actions, if any.

Fight actions for the next fight deadline (whenever that is) may be sent in at any time.

Fighting involves a series of attack and defense actions. Through these, fighters will inflict damage on one another and get their hit point values low enough to allow them to be Finished. All fighters start with 10 HPs.

The specific fight actions to be taken and how Finishing is handled will be detailed in a post below.

BASIC WW RULES

Basic WW rules apply.

No editing of posts are allowed except for typo corrections within five minutes of the original post. No exact quoting of PMs is allowed. No game discussion by living players is allowed outside of this thread, although dead players are allowed to discuss it off forum.

WW roles and a more detailed explanation of fight actions will be detailed two posts below.

I am hoping to send out roles Wednesday afternoon, with Day One starting Thursday.

FIGHT ACTIONS

A fight action is needed by PM to me every day at the fight action deadline. The default Fight Action is Cautious Defense. You must PM your choice to me, and you do not need to announce it in thread. All fight action choices will be announced after the Fight Action deadline, so these choices will not remain secret, or at least not who is attacking who. The matchups will be announced after the deadline, but the fights themselves will not occur until the lynch deadline.

You have four Fight Action options: Aggressive Attack, Cautious Attack, Cautious Defense and Aggressive Defense. All four options are available to all fighters as long as no one as close to being FINISHED. See the Finishing section below for more details about Finishing options.

REGULAR FIGHT ACTION OPTIONS

There are four regular fight action options, and to choose your action, you must PM one of these to me by the fight deadline, along with any choices the option requires. When attacking, you do not need to name the type of wrestling move you will attempt, although if you want to do so, you can. The type of move has no bearing on the likelihood of success or the amount of damage you will deal out if successful.

Aggresive Attack: This is a reckless, full-on attack against another wrestler. YOU MUST INCLUDE WHAT WRESTLER YOU ARE ATTACKING. Aggressive Attack offers no defense, so if you are attacked, you are guaranteed to take damage. However, due to the ferocity of your attack, your attack will still carry through any attacks on you. There is the possibility in an Aggressive Attack that you will hit another wrestler instead, if one is near enough to you when you engage your chosen opponent. The Aggressive Attack is the most likely type of attack to succeed in causing damage.

Cautious Attack: This is a measured attack against another wrester. As with Aggressive Attack, YOU MUST INCLUDE WHAT WRESTLER YOU ARE ATTACKING. Unlike Aggressive Attack, when you Cautiously Attack a wrestler, you will also remain somewhat on the defensive, and any attacks on you will be defended by you as if you were on Cautious Defense. A successful attack on you will stop your attack on your intended target, but any attackers coming at you will be subject to a counter attack by you. If you reach your intended target, you will execute your move on him, although it is less likely to succeed than the Aggressive Attack (but more likely to succeed than a counter attack).

Cautious Defense: This is a measured defensive pose. You do NOT need to name any other wrestlers to take this defensive stance, as your sole purpose here is to defend yourself. This is the default action if you do not submit a Fight Action. A Cautious Defense will also result in you executing a counter attack against all comers. This counter attack is less likely to succeed than an Aggressive or Cautious Attack, but at least you have a way of potentially dealing damage on your attackers while in the Cautious Defense pose. The Cautious Defense action offers more defensive protection than the reflexive cautious defense you have when you are in Cautious Attack mode. A successful attack on you while you are in Cautious Defense will expose you to further attack, but you will always execute a counter attack if you are attacked.

Aggressive Defense: This is an all-out defensive stance, where you set yourself against any and all attackers. You do NOT need to name any other wrestlers to take this defensive stance, as your sole purpose here is to defend yourself. You are in such a defensive mode, that you will be unable to execute any counter attacks in this position. But you will offer up defense against all attackers, even if previous attacks succeeded against you. This is also the strongest defensive stance you can take as a fight action.

ORDER OF ATTACK AND MULTIPLE ATTACKERS ON ONE WRESTLER

The order of attack is determined by the attackers, the wrestlers whom have chosen to either Aggressively or Cautiously Attack. Aggressive Attacks are presumed to come at high speed, maybe even running, so they would come first, with the quicker and more skilled wrestlers executing their moves first. Then the Cautious Attackers will execute their moves, similarly with the quicker, more skilled wrestlers going first.

Counter attacks from those in either Cautious mode will happen immediately after the attack causing them, regardless of the relative other choices and attributes of the counter-attacking wrestler.

When multiple attackers attack the same player, the results of the first attack can affect the likelihood of success and the amount of damage dealt from subsequent attacks. A successful attack on a Cautious Defender or Attacker will expose those wrestlers to automatic hits from subsequent attackers, but the damage dealt is more limited because the first attack will essentially get in the way of following attacks. A failed first attack on a Cautious Defender or Attacker will keep the defense in place, and any further attacks will face defense but also deal full damage if successful. Regardless of prior attack results, any Aggressive Defender will continue to offer defense to any subsequent attacks.

If you are targeting a wrestler that is also targeted by an Aggressive Attacker, or if you are defending against a wrestler under attack by an Aggressive Attacker, there is a small chance you will get hit instead by the Aggressive Attacker.

DAMAGE AND RECOVERY

Every wrestler starts with 10 hit points, and will never go over this total. Although HPs will always be expressed as an integer value from 0 to 10, it is actually on a 1-100 skill, so not every "1" or "5" or "8" HP will be created equal. Only I will know your actual HP total. Only you and I will know your approximate HP level, as the actual number will only be imparted to you in PM. In thread, though, at some point, it will become clear from the fight writeups whether or not you are doing well or have taken on damage.

Damage comes from successful attacks, of course. The more powerful attackers will deal more damage when they are successful in their attacks.

Recovery happens from round to round (day to day). Every night action deadline, all wrestlers will recover some hit points. This base recovery will lessen as the days go by and wrestlers become more and more fatigued. The more durable wrestlers will recover more hit points.

Any wrestlers under 3 HPs will be declared as ABLE TO BE FINISHED. Finishable wrestlers will be announced at the night action deadline.

FINISHING

Wrestlers can only be removed via the wrestling portion of the game by being Finished. Only players identified as Able To Be Finished can be targeted to be Finished. No player who starts a day off of the Able To Be Finished list can be Finished that day through wrestling moves.

If a player is declared to be Able To Be Finished, the only Fight Action that player can take is Aggressive Defense. If he is not targeted for Finishing, but is attacked and takes on more damage than his remaining HPs, he will nevertheless remain alive in the ring, with the minimum HPs possible. Again, wrestlers must be Finished to be removed from the game by wrestling moves.

To Finish a wrestler, you must submit as your Fight Action your intent to Finish a Wrestler. This takes the place of your Fight Action that day. With respect to you as the attacker, you will be treated as an Aggressive Attacker, but your Finishing attempt will go on regardless. Only one Finishing attempt is allowed on an Able To Be Finished Wrestler per day. If multiple Finishing actions are received for the same fighter, the quickest and most skilled wrestlers will get first shot. Conditionals when submitting a Finishing Action are allowed. If no conditional is offered, the default will be a Cautious Attack against the Able To Be Finished player, or, if the player is Finished, a Cautious Defense. Able To Be Finished wrestlers can still be attacked normally, but Finishing Actions will take precedence over all other attacks.

If you succeed in Finishing a wrestler, you will receive a 1 point bonus to all of your attributes (for the duration of the game) and will recover HPs during the night action phase as if it were Day One (that round only).

EXTRA ABILITIES

Each wrestler will have a one time action to either recover more damage than normal or inflict more damage than normal, one time per game. This will be set out in each wrestler's PM.

OH YEAH, WEREWOLF...

Yes, there are wolves and villagers and roles.

WIN CONDITIONS

The goal of the defectors is to get to whittle the remaining wrestlers down to the same number of wrestlers as them (by wrestling moves or nightkills), at which point they will take over the ring and Finish all other remaining wrestlers. The goal of the remaining wrestlers (the village) is to root out and Finish all of the defectors, either by wrestling them out or lynching them.

WWF WRESTLER ROLES

The Seer-- Can scan one wrestler per night to determine if he is a Defector.

The Bodyguard-- Can protect one wrestler per night from the Defectors. He can protect himself. He cannot protect the same wrestler two nights in a row. If the Defectors attempt to nightkill a protected wrestler, there will be no nightkill. The BG will not learn the identity of the Defectors or vice versa.

The Duke-- Can stop one lynch per game. The only option is to stop the lynch from happening. If the lynch is duked, there will beno lynch that day.

Training Partners-- Two wrestlers will be longtime training partners and best friends. They will be known to each other, but unable to PM each other. If one is targeted for nightkill, the other partner will save him, but the Defectors will learn the identity of both partners. The partners will not learn the identity of the Defectors. If one of the partners is targeted for lynch, the other partner will also be lynched. They will both voluntarily leave the ring, as symbolic gestures of their disgust for the remaining wrestlers.

All other WWF wrestlers are generic, vanilla wrestlers from the WW perspective.

DEFECTOR ROLES

The Defectors will be able to communicate with each other by PM during the game.

Cunning Defector-- This defector is particularly adept at evading discovery. He will come up as a regular wrestler if scanned by the seer.

Brutal Defector-- This defector will have the ability to take one other wrestler he names with him if he is lynched.

All other Defectors are generic wolves from the WW perspective.

Cultist-- There is one wrestler who has heard about the defectors and wants to also defect, but he has not been approached by the WCW yet. He is hopeful that by helping the defectors, he can garner a contract offer from the other circuit. He will be aware of the identities of the defectors (but not their roles). He will be unable to communicate with them. They willl not know his identity. If they nightkill him, he will be removed from the ring and not convert into a defector. He counts with the village for win condition purposes.

ALL ROLES ARE IN THE GAME.

[Simbo Klice]

[britrock88]

I see DT is testing the post-editing rule already. :D

[DaddyTorgo]

I see DT is testing the post-editing rule already. :D

;)

[Autumn]

This looks legendary. Great setup, and I'm not a big wrestling fan, but the one era that connects with me is probably '90 WWF, I used to play one of those arcade games all the time.

In

[DaddyTorgo]

No Flair?

Really?

So to get my fix I'd have to be the fucking blubbering hunk of lard known as the American Dream???

[Chief Rum]

The wrestler pool has been added above. It's first come, first serve!

[DaddyTorgo]

Actually if I have to pick one of these wrestlers...I'll go with the Nacho errr...Macho Man.

OHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHH!!!!

[Chief Rum]

No Flair?

Really?

So to get my fix I'd have to be the fucking blubbering hunk of lard known as the American Dream???

Haha sorry, this is WWF circa 1990. ;)

Ric Flair, The Rock, Jon Cena, Brock Lesnar, etc. will have to wait until the next installment. :)

[Chief Rum]

Actually if I have to pick one of these wrestlers...I'll go with the Nacho errr...Macho Man.

OHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHH!!!!

Haha done!

[DaddyTorgo]

Haha done!

Still one of the top moments in wrestling history.

I almost picked Ultimate Warrior, but honestly not sure I'd have the energy to sustain the kind of insane ramblings that being in that character would require.

[Chief Rum]

For the record, most of the wrestler info above is pure flavor. The only stats which matter are the Top and Weak skills.

All wrestlers start with the same number of total attribute points (22) and hit points (10).

A hero is just as likely to be a wolf as a heel is.

[JAG]

Honky Tonk Man please.

[Chief Rum]

Honky Tonk Man please.

He always cracked me up, lol. Done.

[PackerFanatic]

Absolutely coming back for this one. This is the hayday of wrestling and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Plus it has been a while since I have been in a game and this seems like a good one :)

I will take Shawn Michaels!

[Chief Rum]

Okay, updated to here. :)

Welcome, everyone!

[Chief Rum]

Still one of the top moments in wrestling history.

I almost picked Ultimate Warrior, but honestly not sure I'd have the energy to sustain the kind of insane ramblings that being in that character would require.

Mach Man was great, both as a bad guy and as a good guy. I was surprised to discover he actually was married to Miss Elizabeth (read up on him when he passed away last year, RIP Randy).

Love the Ultimate Warrior, too. He was absolutely crazy in the ring.

[Chief Rum]

Absolutely coming back for this one. This is the hayday of wrestling and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Plus it has been a while since I have been in a game and this seems like a good one :)

I will take Shawn Michaels!

Yup! I don't much follow wrestling anymore, but this is the time when I was totally into it. Loved it back then, even knowing it was all BS.

[Danny]

Andre and Hitman were the only two left that I knew who they were.

[Danny]

Ive never been a wrestling fan, but I did play an royal rumble game for the genesis a lot.

[Chief Rum]

no Brooklyn Brawler? ;)

damn CR, I have to play this.

I'm in as.......





ROWDY RODDY PIPER!

The Brawler was badass. It's a shame I had to do a cutoff somewhere. I decided to just go with the roster for the 1990 Royal Rumble. That captured most of the big names of the day.

But that did leave out a ton of other great wrestlers, like the Brawler, Jim Duggan, George The Animal Steel, King Kong Bundy (gawd, I hated that guy), Beefcake, Big John Studd, etc.

I hated Roddy and yet loved him all at the same time. Looking forward to seeing how you play him.

[Chief Rum]

Andre and Hitman were the only two left that I knew who they were.

Yeah, you had to be into it around then to know it. Most of us are around that age where we would have been teenagers when these guys were big, so we know them.

Nothing wrong with Andre the Giant or the Hit Man.

Andre was actually really scary in wrestling. Just so damn big and dominating. It was really weird to see the gentle giant thing in The Princess Bride, and now that's my primary view of him. Go figure.

Another guy lost way too soon. Happening a lot in wrestling, unfortunately.

[Chubby]

Ahhh I didn't realize it was the roster of the 90 rumble, thought it was a mix of wrestlers. That makes more sense :

[Chubby]

Ahhhh danny can't RP andre's "stubbornness" in matches then ;)

[Chubby]

I almost took hitman but wanted to be a heel... figured that's what id be if I was a wrestler :)

[Danny]

I am a true performer, and off of work all week, so I will research him a bit.

[Danny]

I took Andre because he is over a foot taller and has 250 pounds on hitman. I know its fake, but I should be able to squish everyone.

[Chubby]

I am a true performer, and off of work all week, so I will research him a bit.

You may be a performer, but sooner or later it'll be time to pay the Piper!

[Chief Rum]

Don't forget, everyone, you also need to send me your point distributions. Please read the Choose Your Wrestler and Wrestler Attributes sections above in Post #2.

[Autumn]

I'll take Earthquake.

[Autumn]

Actually I take that back, I will take the warlord.

[britrock88]

Without knowing anything about this stuff, I'll take Rick Martel.

[hoopsguy]

If this game had Colonel DeBeers I would have been forced to find a way to play :)

As is, I'm looking forward to watching this one unfold.

[PackerFanatic]

The Royal Rumble game for SNES was one of the best wrestling games ever...so much fun.

[Simbo Klice]

I'll take Bret Hart.

[Chief Rum]

If this game had Colonel DeBeers I would have been forced to find a way to play :)

As is, I'm looking forward to watching this one unfold.

Haha wish I could. I already turned down a request for Ric Flair. I almost would add him in for you, otherwise, just to get you into the game. ;)

[Chief Rum]

Caught up to this point, with who is taking what.

Only Zinto among current commitments left to pick a wrestler.

Still hoping for more tomorrow, though (although there are enough players now to give one a whirl).

Thank you to those of you who have sent in point totals. I will go over them tonight and make sure they work within the rules.

For those of you still to submit point distributions, please get those in as soon as you can. Thanks!

[murrayyyyy]

I'll take the 'Mericaun Dweam Dusty Rhodes.

[Chief Rum]

I'll take the 'Mericaun Dweam Dusty Rhodes.

Awesome! Welcome, murrayyyyy! I dig your contributions to the bball thread in the General Discussion forum. I'm sure you'll do great here.

I'll take the Ultimate Warrior

[Chief Rum]

I'll take the Ultimate Warrior

Welcome Lathum!

I'm afraid The Ultimate Warrior was taken by Julio. I haven't gotten the chance to update yet. Do you have another choice you like? All of the other non taken wrestlers are available.

[Lathum]

Superfly!

[Chief Rum]

Superfly!

I like your taste in wrestlers. The Ultimate Warrior was one of my favorites, and so is Superfly. :)

Done.

[Chief Rum]

One of you enterprising individuals uncovered a flaw in my writeup--I didn't mention that no attributre can be 0 (minimum of 1). So if any of you still have points to assign, please note there needs to be at least 1 point in every attribute.

I'll modify the rules.

[path12]

I like your taste in wrestlers. The Ultimate Warrior was one of my favorites, and so is Superfly. :)

Done.

I saw Jimmy Snuka wrestle at a shitty sports bar by Sea-Tac Airport in the late 90's. He did not age well.

Looks like I am going to have to be birdman. Mainly, because when I looked up the remaining wrestlers he has a parrot.

Yeah, when I was doing research for this, I checked his wiki page, and they have a shot of him from the last three years. Not good at all. He looks like a biker gang dude now. I prefer to remember him when he was younger. :)

[Chief Rum]

Ohh, brother ! Let me tell something brother.... WHAT DO YOU THINK is making your bones AAAACHE brother? The 24 inch PYTHONS BROTHER!

Haha, also great. mau versus Julio! :D

This is undeniably true. Koko's parrot is named Frankie. He was always a great character (Koko, not the parrot).

[Chief Rum]

Okay, I need points or adjustments from the following players:

Danny
Simbo Klice

Edit: Julio and Lathum are in. DaddyT and Suicane are in as well now. Just two left!

[Julio Riddols]

Hogan.. *SNORT* I've got eyes, Hogan.. I've got EARS, HOOGAAANNNN... I saw with those eyes a man running scared, Hulk Hogan. A man afraid of his DESSSTINY... I'm watching and listening, Hogan, the Warriors eyes are everywhere, like a LASER OF PURE COSMIC STRENGTH... penetrating... breaking through the walls.. tearing through your defenses and BURNING INTO YOUR SOUL *SNORT* I will... *SNARL* Show you your dessstiny, Hulk Hogan..

[saldana]

Warrior...I hope you aren't as dumb as you are ugly, because you have to realize that when the Sexiest Man Alive hits the ring during the Royal Rumble, you, and all the rest of your "Ultimate Fatbody Fans" are going to experience an "Ultimate Disappointment"!!!

and when i have tossed you and the rest of these out of shape losers over the top rope, the Ultimate Male will give one lucky lady in Orlando the night of her life!!!!

[Lathum]

I suggest anyone who is interested read up on Andre the Giants nightlife exploits. They are epic

[Suicane75]

You don't wanna play cards with me because I cheat. Ok? I cheat. You wanna play 21? I got 22. You wanna play Blackjack? I got two of those too. You wanna play Aces and Eights? I got too many of those too.

[saldana]

i had the idea that for the duration of this game, we each add our WWF character to our signatures...it will make it easier to know who is who and encourage RPing the guys and cutting promos on each other.

[Julio Riddols]

When I stare into the cold dark eyes of conflict and *Double snort* smell the stench of the breath of failure, I grit my teeth and look to the heavens and call out to the gods... FORGIVE.... This obstacle.. because he knows not that he is in my path.. THE PATH TO THE ROYAL RUMBLE IS PAVED WITH THE BLOOD OF MORTALS, RICK RUDE.. And your blood.. *snort* will repave that path.. THE GODS HAVE HANDED DOWN THE SENTENCE AND THE VERDICT IS DEATH! I will split the sky by the power of the ULTIMATE WARRIOR... and rainnn down an amount of pain... Rick Rude.. That you *snort* CANNOT... *snort* believe...

[saldana]

rant on and on all you want Warrior, but come Royal Rumble, I am going to show everyone, including all your sweathog fans, that you beating me at summer slam was a joke, and that fat fool Piper was the only reason you took my Intercontinental Title.

And this may be difficult for you to remember, given that tiny little brain of yours, but last year at the Royal Rumble, i left you lying in a heap, while all the ladies drank in the beauty of my poses, and wished they were going home with me.

[Chubby]

Rick Rick Rick... Ricky boy, I think you've been spending too much time in front of the mirror again. Warrior beat you fair and sqaure, if you weren't checking out the guy... err gir... err whatever... maybe you'd still be the champ.

[Chief Rum]

All right, no word yet from Danny and Simbo. I am headed off to the second job, so hopefully they will check back in by the time I return. If not, I will randomly assign their points.

I will be sending out roles tonight. For most of you this will be past your bedtimes, and you won't see it until tomorrow morning. So I will move the first fight deadline back from 1 p.m. PDT (4 p.m. EST) to 3 p.m. (6 p.m. EST).

So be sure to check in in the morning. Roles and fight actions will also be updated tonight, so be sure to review those as well.

The game will begin later tonight and the first fight and lynch deadlines will be tomorrow, Thursday. Please do not post in game until the official game-opening post later tonight! Thank you!

[Danny]

Sent mine in, sorry about the delay, I was busy doing as little as possible :)

Have you gone to bed yet CR?

I slept a bit earlier (unintentionally). I'm up for the day. Gonna finish getting roles out and start the game, and then get ready for work. :)

[Chief Rum]

All generic villager wrestlers get the following message:

You are a generic wrestler without a role.

This will be followed by details of whatever extra ability they have.

[mauchow]

Brothers ! I am without a role ! But I do have my awesomeness to help us villager types win this thing.

[Chief Rum]

All roles are out!

If you did not receive a PM from me, please let me know, and I will re-send it.

[Chief Rum]

Eighteen wrestlers in the ring. Only one will leave willingly.

The 1990 Royal Rumble is about to start! Some of the biggest names in wrestling are sizing each other up and considering their strategies. The fan roar is deafening, as the combatants start to circle.

Who will come away with the Royal Rumble title? And will the WCW traitors be found? Only time... and maybe an eye rake... will tell!

The game has begun. You may start posting.



FIGHT ACTION DEADLINE is at 3 p.m. PDT (6 p.m. EST) today.

LYNCH DEADLINE is at 7 p.m. PDT (10 p.m. EST).

[Chief Rum]

I do not work at the second job tonight, so I will run the lynch at 7 p.m. as scheduled.

[Chief Rum]

Oh, and fight actions and roles have been updated and then some, so please review that post for information on fight actions, finishing, win conditions and WW roles.

So from a wrestling perspective are there any strategies you guys want to discuss?

Beat up the wolves?

It seems like we can get extra information from beating other wrestlers (like giving ourselves an extra lynch every now and then), with the potential downsides that come with that (killing villagers). If we get an outed wolf from a seer scan, we don't have to waste a lynch getting rid of them unless we think we're at end game and can't screw around, we can just beat the snot out of them during the fight phase until they're removed. Not 100% sure that's the smart move though, because based on the finishing move thing, it might take multiple days to remove them. Anyway, bit of a moot point for now.

This is The Barbarian, bulletsponge's wrestler. He always did look like a real bad ass.

Tongan mofo and he trained as a sumo wrestler before he got into "professional wrestling".

He was most famous for being part of the Powers of Pain, with the Warlord, who is also in this game. One of the best tag teams ever.

Yes, this is really a wrestler. This is Bret The Hit Man Hart, which is Simbo Klice's wrestler.

Hart was also part of one of the best tag teams in WWF history, the Hart Foundation, in which he teamed with Jim "The Anvel" Niedhart, who was available for this game but was not chosen.

Yeah, those are pink pants, and are those butterflies? Sure, you go ahead and tell him how pansy that looks.

Fun fact: Hart started wearing his trademark mirrored sunglasses to hide his eyes when he got to big time wrestling because he got super nervous doing promos.

[JAG]

Past couple of days have been busy which is a bummer because I had wanted to jog my memory about the Homky Tonk Man, other than his hitting people over the head with a guitar. I watched a minute clip of him channeling Elvis so I might go that route, but I'll probably need a bit more to get into character.

Hard times are when the textile workers around this country are out of work and got four or five kids and can't pay their wages and can't buy their food...

Hard times are when the auto workers are out of work and they tell 'em, 'go home.'

And hard times are when a man's workin' a job thirty years, thirty years, they give him a watch, kick him in the butt, and say, 'Hey, a computer took your place, daddy.' That's hard times! That's hard times!

Eat your heart out, ladies.

This is The American Dream Dusty Rhodes, being run here by murrayyyyy.

As you see from murrayyyyy's posted image some posts back, Rhodes was known for dressing in a big, gawdy, yellow and black polka dot outfit.

He had a big feud with Ted DiBase, as you are already seeing here in thread. An inside joke in the WWF was the fact that DiBiase's sidekick Virgil was named after Dusty, who's real name is Virgil Runnels. It was supposed to be a joke about DiBiase ordering Rhodes around.

As murrayyyyy piointed out, Dusty's son Dustin also wrestles, and so does another of his sons, Cody.

[Chief Rum]

http://www.obsessedwithwrestling.com/pictures/h/honkytonkman/01.jpg

This loudly dressed individual is the Honky Tonk Man, run by JAG, and one of the most colorful and hated heels of all time.

He pretty much affected the Elvis impersonator thing 24-7, and he carried in his guitar and Elvis suit to the ring every time. The guitar often ended up as a weapon in his fights (when the ref's back was turned of course).

He held the Intercontinental Title belt for over a year, which is a record which still stands today. He kept it through numerous fights by getting himself disqualified instead of losing to better opponents.

Barbarian rambles, Barbarian is confused because he hasn't had THE WARLORD by his side to guide him. When it comes to war, there are warriors, like my friend. And there are warlords who guide the war. And then there are victims. I see many victims here. Too busy fanning their hair or counting their money while The Warlord prepares his attack.When the Rumble stops, The Warlord will stand atop their piled bodies.

There is no real need to go into detail here about who this is. mauchow is playing Hulk Hogan, who is more or less the Wayne Gretzky of wrestling, and is both famous and infamous in so many ways.

Of the many influences he was the source of, consider how he ripped his shirt off every time he went to the ring (or in front of a camera off of it), he liked to display his "24 inch pythons" (his biceps) and how he would call on the aid and support of his Hulkamaniacs (his legions of fans).

Plus, he's Thunderlips.

[JAG]

He held the Intercontinental Title belt for over a year, which is a record which still stands today.

That's right kids, y'all talk a good game, but I'm the one who actually has the hardware to prove it.

He kept it through numerous fights by getting himself disqualified instead of losing to better opponents.

Now now, Don't be Cruel. We like to call that intelligent strategy.

Jake The Snake Roberts, who is being played by Suicane75, was one of the most popular wrestlers during this time period.

He was famous for his python Damien, which he brought into every fight draped over his shoulders, and for the Snake Pit, where he would do elaborate and dark, glowering promos. He was originally a heel, but fans loved his snake and his move, the DDT, so much that the WWF turned him into a hero.

[Lathum]

It's funny to think this shit used to be on Saturday mornings.

How apropriate Lathum comments now, as it is tiem for his wrestler Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka.

As you can tell from the picture, Snuka was not too often rooted to the ground. He was famous for his acrobatics and dives off of ropes and turnbuckles. Snuka is a former Mr. Hawaii professional bodybuilder.

Like Jake The Snake, Superfly was originally cast to be a villain, but he became so popular, the WWF switched him to a hero.

The Birdman Koko B. Ware, played here by Zinto, was much more famous for his props and his antics than he was for his wrestling, where he was a middle-level wrestler.

As the picture above suggests, Ware would come to the ring in loud color outfits and sunglasses, and his blue-and-yellow macaw Frankie would sit on his shoulder or arm. He even had a perch by ringside where he waited for Ware to be done fighting.

The Birdman also was famous for his bird dance prior to fights.

[Zinto]

Hello everyone. I am going to keep this a three way race and vote for Sal. Plus, it works out because the youtube video of Koko B. Ware I watched was a match with him getting his butt kicked by Ravishing Rick Rude.

Vote Sal

Welcome to today's Piper's Pit!

My guest today is none other than Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart.

Now Jim, does it bother you that you are not represented here today and yet your fancy schamncy tag team partner Bret Hart is?

(Jim strokes his goatee)

Not feeling talkative today James? Isn't it true that before coming out here tonight, you were out back talking to referee Earl Hebner?

(Jim strokes goatee)

Well you don't seem to be denying it. Isn't it time you got out from beneath Bret's shadow? How would it feel for you to be the one to throw Bret over the top rope in the Rumble?

You are correct in only one thing -- I do not know hard times. I AM THE MILLION DOLLAR MAN!

I wipe my ass with twenties! I light cigars with fifties! I buy women with hundreds!

Go ahead and talk about the little people scurring around for scraps. BUT I AM THE TOP OF THE HEAP BABY!!

After all -- everyone has a price. And YOU, my friend, can be had for CHEAP!

[mauchow]

4 for sal 3 for sui and simbo

Not a lucky day for an s name I guess.

[DaddyTorgo]

I still need to vote. Is this lynch we're voting for, or fight? I'm confused by the duality of it and haven't reread all the way thru the rules (work been busy).

[Chief Rum]

I still need to vote. Is this lynch we're voting for, or fight? I'm confused by the duality of it and haven't reread all the way thru the rules (work been busy).

Votes are for lynch.

Fighting is handled through PM (you send me a Fight Action; I will announce fight actions at the fight deadline at 3 p.m. and then the fight results at the lynch deadline).

[Autumn]

And the lynch deadline is long off, so I don't like to see us consolidating quite so early. Makes it too easy for the late voters. Let's keep this a four person race so we can get something more useful out of it.

<b>unvote saldana

Duh...now I read about fighting and understand. Obviously we don't have to vote for a fight...it's a Royal Rumble.

LOL

Unless I miscounted, Simbo has 4 as well.

[Lathum]

Unvote Danny

I still think it is our best chance to get him out of the rumble, but people don't seem interested in that strategy.

[Chief Rum]

THE FIGHT ACTION DEADLINE HAS PASSED.

The coming matchups will be announced shortly.

[Suicane75]

Hey brother, I'm more than willing to vote for Danny if it ends up making a difference.

[Lathum]

Hey brother, I'm more than willing to vote for Danny if it ends up making a difference.

Just trying to find a logical way to vote opposed to the usual day one shot in the dark.

[Suicane75]

Just trying to find a logical way to vote opposed to the usual day one shot in the dark.

Trust me brother, I understand where you're coming from. I'm willing to do it even though my vote should go to Simbo. If one or two more jump on I'd be willing to do it too. Not gonna change my vote this early yet though seeing as how I've already voted.

[Lathum]

ok

well

at least there is some discussion

VOTE DANNY

[Suicane75]

If someone else steps up and votes for Danny I'll switch my vote. It still would make more sense for me to vote for Simbo but I'll do it as a show of good faith and just cross my fingers.

[Autumn]

You speak like a warrior, Superfly. Yet your fear betrays you. Andre's strength in the ring may be great, but he could be a great friend in our fight against the WCW. When we run and hide, we expose our flanks.

[Autumn]

Honestly though, Lathum, why do you think Andre in particular will be tough. We all have the same amount of points, and I think there's probably a few out there with the same allotment of attributes as Danny. Seems like shooting ourself in the foot to get rid of a great villager on day one.

[saldana]

What time is the lynch deadline??

[Suicane75]

Andres main skill is Endurance just because he's so frigging huge. It will take more to eliminate him via the wrestling game, so I understand Lathums desire to take him out via the WW game. Sure it's a shot in the dark, but at least it has some bit of motive behind it.

[Suicane75]

Lynch deadline is 10pm est.

[path12]

Consolidating a little bit.

UNVOTE MURRAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
VOTE DANNY

[path12]

To follow up, while we all have the same number of points we also have different abilities in the ring -- and I have to think that Andre's would have something to do with his sheer size.

I believe it could be easier to take Andre out via the WW route, hence the vote.

[Suicane75]

Unvote: Saldana

Vote: Danny

[Suicane75]

I made a promise and I'm sticking to it. I hope I haven't doomed myself.

[Chief Rum]

The wrestlers all finish sizing up their opponents, and are now beginning to round on each other. Who will be the first to attack? Will those defending be ready?

The following list is alphabetical.

AGGRESSIVE ATTACK

Julio Riddols (Ultimate Warrior) ATT saldana (Rick Rude)
Lathum (Superfly Snuka) ATT Zinto (Koko)
PackerFanatic (Shawn Michaels) ATT Julio Riddols (Ultimate Warrior)

CAUTIOUS ATTACK

Chubby (Roddy Piper) ATT Simbo Klice (Bret Hart)
JAG (Honky Tonk Man) ATT britrock (Rick Martel)
murrayyyyy (Dusty Rhodes) ATT path12 (Ted Dibiase)
path12 (Ted DBiase) ATT Zinto (Koko)

CAUTIOUS DEFENSE

Autumn (Warlord)
bulletsponge (Barbarian)
britrock88 (Rick Martel)
Danny (Andre the Giant)
ntndeacon (Mr. Perfect)
saldana (Rick Rude)
Simbo Klice (Bret Hart)
Zinto (Koko)

AGGRESSIVE DEFENSE

DaddyTorgo (Macho Man)
mauchow (Hulk Hogan)
Suicane75 (Jake The Snake)

[path12]

And yeah, now I see I kind of paraphrased Jake's post above. But I see logic in it.

[path12]

Is it wrong to wonder if an aggressive defense is the move a wolf would make day 1?

[path12]

I mean, if you are a wolf the last thing you want is to get thrown out of the ring.....

[path12]

Actually, I think I like that hunch better than the one for Andre'.

UNVOTE DANNY
VOTE SUICANE75

[Suicane75]

If you're anyone, the last thing you want is to get thrown out of the ring. I don't get why you'd do that after I just made a promise and kept it even though it put me in a bad position, but whatevs. I'm not a wolf.

[Suicane75]

BTW, my weak skill is technique, which means my offense isn't very strong, it only makes sense that I play from my strength, which is endurance, especially early in the game.

[path12]

RHODES!!!

YOU MAKE ME LAUGH!!!!

Comin' at the Million Dollar Man with that weak sauce. YOU HAVE NO IDEA OF THE FORCES YOU ARE MESSING WITH!!!

EARL! *Earl Hebner comes out* SHINE MY BOOTS! *Earl shines my boots*

Never forget, Rhodes. EVERYONE has their price. MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[JAG]

The Ultimate Warrior is gonna get wrecked.

[Autumn]

To follow up, while we all have the same number of points we also have different abilities in the ring -- and I have to think that Andre's would have something to do with his sheer size.

I believe it could be easier to take Andre out via the WW route, hence the vote.

There are lots of guys whose best talent is Endurance though, not just Danny. So technically, I don't think any of them will necessarily be any easier than Andre.

[Lathum]

Honestly though, Lathum, why do you think Andre in particular will be tough. We all have the same amount of points, and I think there's probably a few out there with the same allotment of attributes as Danny. Seems like shooting ourself in the foot to get rid of a great villager on day one.

He is also a great wolf. IIRC he duped you guys a few games ago.

[Suicane75]

Yes, there are a lot of guys with endurance as their main skill. But we should pick one. Just because there are a bunch of them doesn't mean we shouldn't focus on one of them.

[Simbo Klice]

Unvote PackerFanatic
Vote Suicane

Purely survival here. And come on now, who is more likely to be a wolf, Bret Hart or Jake Roberts?

[Lathum]

Purely survival here. And come on now, who is more likely to be a wolf, Bret Hart or Jake Roberts?

I'm assuming this comment is for flavor, but that kind of thinking can be dangerous.

[Lathum]

dola- If Suicane was a wolf I don't think he goes aggressive defense knowing he is on the D1 block, I would think he would go aggressive.

[Lathum]

aggressive attack

[Suicane75]

lol, can you lower that font dude. It's buggin me out.

[Lathum]

lol, can you lower that font dude. It's buggin me out.

I think it fits my persona. no?

Dee...Beee...Ya....Seee... (out of breath)

Stop making Dusty Rhodes chase after you. Can't you see I'm fat? Did you not see the picture? Don't make me send in Sapphire to beat up Virgil!

[Lathum]

anyone have a vote count?

[Suicane75]

I think it fits my persona. no?

Yeah, it's just too big for me to handle. ;)

[Suicane75]

So are we allowed to unvote and revote multiple times? I was under the impression you could only do it once per day.

[murrayyyyy]

anyone have a vote count?

I was wondering that too. Is the attack Andre idea still on or has that pretty much been called off?

[Danny]

I have the same attribute points everyone else does, don't think I will be too hard to get rid of in the rumble over the long term if people wanted to. I also think it's a bit presumptuous to go with that line of thinking before even saying a fight take place.

[Danny]

He is also a great wolf. IIRC he duped you guys a few games ago.

I know I've said this before, but I get way too credit as a wolf. Im not that good. Now, I full admit to my awesome villager powers.

[Suicane75]

I aint going anywhere tonight guys. Don't waste your votes.

[Lathum]

Is there a rule about unvoting?

[bulletsponge]

Me confused, so many wrestlers change mind, me no know whats going on. me angry noone attack barbarian.

[Autumn]

It makes sense from a fight standpoint for people to want to gang up on "tough" opponents (though in reality I htink we're all balanced--if someone's that hard to kill, then they're nothing on offense). But having a vote like that is only doing the wolves' work, preventing any vote history and more than likely helping them get rid of a villager. I'm going to do my voting pure-WW style, and just know that if we off a villager at least it helps my chances in the rumble.

[Autumn]

Me confused, so many wrestlers change mind, me no know whats going on. me angry noone attack barbarian.

They fear the Powers of Pain, Barbarian. They know warriors do not die easily!

[Chief Rum]

So are we allowed to unvote and revote multiple times? I was under the impression you could only do it once per day.

Yes, you may unvote your current vote and re-vote for another player, if you like.

Just enter an unvote like this:

UNVOTE CHIEF RUM

Then you are free to vote again, same way as before:

I was wondering that too. Is the attack Andre idea still on or has that pretty much been called off?

No different than normal. You may unvote and revote, unless you Nightfall, of course.

Yes, but how many times? Can I change my vote 3 or 4 times a day?

[Danny]

As much as you want Suicane. There have been days I have revoted close to 10 times before.

[Autumn]

What was that game where you voted everyone and we were trying to figure out if you were somehow compelled to do this?

[Suicane75]

I mean, I'm obviously gonna change my vote to Simbo if i'm forced too, I still think focusing on a high endurance guy early is the better way to go so I'm staying put on Danny for now.

[Danny]

What was that game where you voted everyone and we were trying to figure out if you were somehow compelled to do this?

Was that your batman game? I know i was going for chaos in that game. I may have done it another time though, I cant remember.

I hate to even have to quote this mess ;-) I just meant that if everyone buys into this, then we don't really have a votey history, the wolves can just bury their "kill the Giant" vote and the next day we won't know anything more than we did. Everyone loves to have some kind of D1 rationale, but if there is a rationale it usually makes the vote worth nothing.

If however some poeple want to frame their vote that way, sure, whatever. I just don't suggest we get some big group movement behind it.
