Let's try this again... So, will there be a losers competition? You know, a round where all of those who lost in Round 1 can go against the others who lost in Round 1. Also, why does it say on my card that I'm younger than Nemesis? -------------------- I tried to think of something witty to put here. Needless to say, I failed.

Note: this is as much to sort out who I will vote for as much as it is for the reasoning behind it. Match #1: The Demonslayer far outranks Excalibur. Add that to Infernal's insulting prowess and it's pretty clear who will win (hint: Infernal). Oh, and let's not forget that (s)he has more experience with the boards. Match #2: Oh crap. Alright, let's see... This thing seems to lean heavily in DV's advantage. He has more experience, and some pretty nasty abilities. However, his mental prowess is worthless against a Priest, leaving him mainly with only powerful melee attacks. In the meantime, Nioca (wait, did I just refer to myself in the third-person?!) has a powerful ranged attack that is fairly cheap to use (smite), and the purple bandits would easily be cannon-fodder to his violet ray, which would only make them that much more purple. Ice is an extremely damaging attack, one that I know for a fact that most things in Geneforge are not resistant to. Couple that with the occasional dual-casting, and a Vlish's low HP, and I'd say I'd come out on top. Match #3: I'd like to call a stalemate for this one, but since that isn't possible... It would have to be the Silent Assassin. Simply because he's a mastermind at manipulating people. Match #4: Thralni can just take flight and start pelting Andraste with vegetables without fear of retaliation. Without a ranged attack, this match is one-sided in Thralni's favor. So Thralni would take this one. Match #5: Nalyd has this one easy. Lazarus has experience and is immune to any cold effects, but Nalyd can flame and nitpick the crap out of almost anybody. Oh, let's not forget the creepiness. Match #6: ADoS would probably be finished by Randomizer, but that would probably be after the turtles got Randomizer. And since the turtles have both shells and fluff to protect them... Match #7: Nemesis is rather slow-moving, making him the perfect target for poisoned pencils. By the time he got to him, he would have already been KO'd. (Sorry, Nem.) Match #8: Saunder's Motherly Love would likely cancel out Stew Boy's growling. And unexpected upsets only work when unexpected != impossible. Thus... -------------------- I tried to think of something witty to put here. Needless to say, I failed.

Alright, this poll is very simple. It consists of ten questions, and each question corresponds to a rank in the 1/10. Simply choose which scenario you think will take each place. Note: You won't be able to view the results until May 6th, the contest deadline. This is to keep from accidentally swaying the remaining judges. Also, please keep your votes to yourself until the deadline has passed and the announcement has been made.

Oh thanks, Arancaytar. Now I'm nervous. I'm hoping I at least take fifth, though fourth would be preferable. I don't stand a chance against Frostbite or Shades of Gray. -------------------- I tried to think of something witty to put here. Needless to say, I failed.

I'm mainly a fan of RTS. Total Annihilation, Age of Mythology, Age of Empires, and Rise of Nations all rank pretty highly on my list of favorite games. I'm not a big fan of FPS, though I'm an excellent player. I enjoy platformers, and innovative Breakout style and puzzle games usually garner my attention as well. -------------------- I tried to think of something witty to put here.

quote:So what you're basically saying is that if someone missed a small, fairly irrelevant fact or makes one tiny mistake, that gives you the right to insult them. :rolleyes: Don't you think you overreacted just a smidge? By the way, to keep this on topic, I find it a bit odd that this story is written in a similar fashion to what one could find in the message pane of BoA. But since this was supposed to be a BoA scenario, I guess I can see where that comes in. EDIT: And can someone please remove that image? It's stretching the pane to ridiculous proportions, and that's at 1028x768. I can only imagine what happens to anyone who reads this in 800x600 or 640x480.

You have to play it in 16 bit. Which is irritating when you turn the automatic resolution adjust off. -------------------- Scenarios need reviews!

quote:Oh really? I find this much closer than the one you linked. I didn't know Arghhhh had made a story, but that one actually looks mildly thought out compared to Ed's. quote:You know what I'm tired of? Older members dismissing newer ones, or just insulting them for the hell of it. What Robinator said here has become apparent to an appalling degree. Can some of us newbies be irritating? Yes! But, fact is, certain older members (not naming names) can be the same way, and yet we don't feel the need to use some derogatory comment when they post.
