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

[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.

[Lathum]

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

[Lathum]

VOTE DANNY

wanted to get a placeholder in just in case.

I think Danny as Andre the GIant will be tough to get out of the rumble, so all things considered on D1 I may as well vote him.

[DaddyTorgo]

[quote=Chief Rum;2786080]Eighteen wrestlers in the ring. Only one will leave willingly.

*ENTERS THE RING TO POMP AND CIRCUMSTANCE with a mic*

"HULK HOGAN!! HULK HOGAN!! YOU STOLE MY WIFE!! YOU ACT LIKE YOU'RE SOME GREAT AMERICAN HERO, BUT YOU'RE NO BETTER THAN THE ANYBODY ELSE!

LAST YEAR AT THE RUMBLE YOU SCREWED ME!! YOU CLAIMED IT WAS AN ACCIDENT, BUT WE ALL KNOW BETTER NOW. YOU BETTER LOOK OUT HOGAN...YOU BETTER HAVE EYES IN THE BACK OF YOUR HEAD TONIGHT, BECAUSE IT'S ON BROTHA...OHHHHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHHH!"

I like the strategy where I kick all your asses and win the rumble.

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.

Roberts, you want to bring that squishy body of yours over here and make your ugly wife watch you get beaten down again? well so be it, but dont expect me to take her back to my place...the man with the body that never quits doesnt lower himself into the gutter where you and that piece of trash you married live!

[Suicane75]

Why you picking on me Danny? Hmmmmmmmmmmm?

[Chief Rum]

Most of you know Andre the Giant, of course. This is Danny's wrestler. He was just a mammoth of a man.

Some of you may known him better as Fezzig, Vezzini's strongest man in The Princess Bride.

Me too.

[Chief Rum]

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.

[murrayyyyy]

This is Dusty Rhodes in the WWF...



this is his son...



What's not bad ass about this...?

[Chief Rum]

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.

Tad Deebyasee...

you don't put hard times on Dusty Rhodes and his family...

You don't know what hard times are, daddy...

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!

Hard times has now voted for Path12! You are about to find out what hard times are from this bionic elbow!

OHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHHH

HOP ON THE MACHO MAN'S TRAIN WARRIOR...THERE'S PLENTY OF ROOM FOR YOU AND ALL YOUR WARRIOR FAITHFUL OVER HERE!!

[Chief Rum]

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]

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.

[Autumn]

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.

[Chief Rum]

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.

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

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

[Chief Rum]

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.
