Round 40
SSBB = Super Smash Brothers Brawl
To all of those interested in joining, there are no sign ups. You can just start playing right off the bat. If you need additional help, I am here most of the time and more than willing to try to help as much as possible.
Story as of now:
- Cosby pic from Wiki
The Turks calmly heal for +2 HP while watching for a good chance to strike. Rude instead rushes into the fray.
Yoshi: Yosh.... [Trans: The time of deliverance is upon... ack!]
Rude punches Yoshi across his big nose.
Rude: Shut the hell up.
Yoshi growls and flicks his tongue at Rude, missing his head but eating his sunglasses. The Dark Trooper scares Rude away as it activates its Energy Shield, healing for +4 HP as well as blocking all weapon fire.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Gilgamish and Enkidu have reached a doorway.
Gilgamish: You think this is it?
The dog monster barks. Gilgamish opens the door and steps into a large armory.
Yojimbo: What kept you?
Gilgamish: You! Who are you?
Yojimbo: I was just summoned for extra security to prevent people from illegally raiding the weapon and item stocks.
Gilgamish:
Draws one of many blades. Just give me Excalibur, and you won’t be hurt.
Yojimbo:
Draws his sword too. Not likely.
The dog monsters growl and attack each other as their masters clash.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Sephiroth’s lair.
Sephiroth: Ah! O’Malley! So good to see you.
A man in purple armor similar to Master Chief’s steps over to meet Sephiroth.
O’Malley: Sephiroth, always a pleasure.
Doc: I’m here too!
O’Malley: Shut up you.
Sephiroth: Still have that annoying doctor I see... Colonel! Get to work appropriating a new body for our ally.
The colonel salutes and runs off.
Ridley: Wait. I thought one of those wondering warriors was our future teammate.
Sephiroth: That was just a red herring to throw off the viewers. I don’t think anyone saw this coming.
Sephiroth starts laughing evilly. Shortly, O’Malley starts laughing too. Eventually, Doc laughs too.
O’Malley: Shut up.
0500/1700 Rule: Regardless of when the last update occurred, you may make actions
after 5AM/PM your time zone. There is no need to wait for an update to make an action, but it is recommended. Any actions that break this rule will not count as a legal action and will be promptly (eventually) pointed out. If you miss one of the posting periods, you will not get an extra move. I will allow posts +5 minutes in so you don’t have to rush your action.

Example heal: ‘

Specials follow the same format where appropriate.
Specials and weapons should be used before regular attacks can be used.
Special users can defeat one 1 or 2 HP NPC of their choice in addition to their special use (meaning without targeting the NPC with the special).
Super Smash Attacks (SSA): SSA actions are powerful, character-specific moves with special effects. They can only be activated two ways and usually involve the character being removed from the game (see below) for a short time. The SSA use counter does not reset until all characters have used their SSA. To activate: either use a Smash Emblem or buy it with some points. They may not be ready at the start of the game, but I’ll finish them as soon as possible.
Removed from the Game (RFG): Unlike in Magic: The Gathering, this is not a permanent effect. Characters removed from the game cannot attack or heal but cannot be targeted. They return to play after a set amount of rounds. At least three characters will remain in play at all times.
Special Character - Gogo: Due to Gogo’s unique nature, I will post his information every round. If there are any questions, PM me, and I will willingly help.
Gogo cannot attack or heal. He is active every round. He has only one special which he uses every round.
Special: Mime: *Gogo copies the last action done (the post above this use). *Gogo’s user may choose new targets. *If a special was used, Gogo receives -3 damage in addition to the special’s effects. *Cannot mime SSAs or actions in the GM’s posts. *Cannot be the first action of the round. *If Gogo is not used, he automatically heals for +1 HP each round, but he starts with 30 HP at the beginning of the game. *He counts as male for gender related contests.
Sample use:
Code:
[b]Gogo mimes [Last Character Used] and [Copies the last action as player sees fit][/b]
Starting/Maximum HP = 50
Factions
Castlevania: +30 - Vampire Slayer - Characters can automatically defeat two NPCs with 1, 2, or 3 HP or defeat one 4 or 5 HP NPC in addition any other actions this round

Mushroom Kingdom: +40 - Mega Mushroom - All members deal double damage for the rest of the round, but cannot use weapons. Negative side effects are doubled for members

Round 40 Announcements:
1:
Bracket B is Active! Bracket A is Inactive!
2: Finally an actor getting a write up. I know you would be expecting some one like Sir Sidney Poitier, but maybe later.
3: Today’s subject: Bill Cosby. One of TV’s most beloved dads. Also the first African-American to win an Emmy. Bill was a good athlete while growing up but showed a tendency for clowning. He worked hard in his schooling, both academically and to help support his family. After high school, he joined the US Navy and served at Quantico and Bethesda. After the Navy, Cosby went back to school and majored in education. He discovered his love of comedy while working as a bartender. He worked comedy while continuing his education and even earned his doctorate in education with a dissertation on his show
Fat Albert Cosby’s big acting break came with
I Spy where he played a secret agent and lead to his Emmy. After
I Spy, Cosby focused more on comedy shows which lead to the successful
Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids which he used as a educational vehicle for kids. He eventually moved to his most famous role as the lead in
The Cosby Show. The show was designed to counter the violent programming that most networks were showing and to present the ‘Black household’ in a shining light as opposed to the stereotypes commonly seen in other media. After losing the ratings ‘war’ with
The Simpsons, Cosby went on to try to have a film career and to continue educational programing and shows that had positive images of Black families. He continues to this day trying to further the advancement of African-Americans and speaking out against negative images presented in the media. To quote Grandpa Freeman: ‘Cosbyness is next to Godliness’
4: I know Soma’s special is very confusing. It is the worst to try and use and the worst I have ever written. If anyone have suggestions to help me fix the language and make it clearer sounding, I would love to hear them.
5: Spinach croissants rule!
6: For those of you liking Zealot Yoshi, I am heavily basing him off of the Red Zealot from RvsB. It originally started as just Yoshi going nuts with the HRB, but took a life of its own for the better.
7: Since we are close to a week’s end worth of battle, I’ll do the split then instead of asking for one from the Mods. Six weeks down! Pretty good.
8:
9: No more suggestions... for now. Requests are okay though. (Just think the big names for the most part)
Bracket B is Active! Bracket A is Inactive!
