Round 89
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:
- Boondocks pic from uComics distribution
The Slimes ooze Ryu, Fei, and Zero for -1 damage each. The Tonberry ‘doinks’ Zelda for -5 damage. Team ‘Star Krystal’ strafes the field and blows up Young Link, Jeran, and Falco for -4 damage each. Falco uses the blast to launch himself at Krystal’s Arwing. He kicks the cockpit and drives her off.
Falco: Ha. That will show them. Got the game in the bag for sure.
Peach: Yes, good luck out there.
Falco: Lombardi’s are naturally lucky.
Peach: Oh, I hope so.
Falco heads out to fight not noticing the ‘+50 Points for my defeat’ sign on his back.
-----------------------------------------------------------
The GM and Phoenix are walking through the halls. The GM is listing all the potential legal troubles he might have.
GM: The is my case against Tetris for being too addictive. Then there is my case against Pac-Man for being too old school. And don’t get me started on my case against Pong.
Phoenix: Okay... what about cases against you?
GM: The what?
Phoenix: So when Rufus said ‘future legal troubles’ he meant all of your crazy cases against other people.
The GM stares at Phoenix blankly.
GM: Next is my case against NOA for delaying the release of enough Wiis to my area. I know we are in the middle of nowhere, but a little service would be nice!
Phoenix: I hate being an attorney.
-----------------------------------------------------------
The Clan has defeated all of the beetle monster things. They are posing dramatically.
Kratos: I wonder what kind of loot these things are worth.
Kratos starts going through the carcasses for shiny things.
Samanosuke: Don’t mess with that stuff. It is nasty.
Kratos: Quiet Freshman.
Montblanc: Loot is a good way to make money, Kupo.
Samanosuke: It is such a disgusting manner. I’ll have no part in it.
Samanosuke uses the Oni Gauntlet to absorb all of the free-floating beetle souls in the area. Sam and his friends are in another part of the hallway.
Snake:
To Sam. Hey, buddy. If you need to crash, go ahead.
Sam: No thanks.
Snake: Come on. Meta Knight, what do you think?
Meta Knight:
To Sam. Snake is trying to tease you. Cancel or allow?
Sam: Shut the hell up!
Meta Knight: You have insulted me and will now feel my wrath. Cancel or allow?
Pit: Allow! Allow!
Meta Knight: Stay out of this, bird-boy.
Pit: At least I know it is not butter.
Leon: But didn’t your sample get made by the Umbrella Corporation?
Pit: What do you mean?
Leon:
Draws a pistol. We must purify him before he kills us all!
Pit: What?!
Leon pulls the trigger and sprays Pit’s face with water.
Pit: Ha. Ha. Very funny.
Montblanc: Kupo! We must move out. The treasure isn’t going to find itself, kupo!
The group forms up again and walks away. Kratos is carrying a the wings of one of the beetles on his back.
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.

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. Characters that still have an available SSA are marked with the Yen symbol (¥)
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.
<s>
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.</s>

This Round's Stage:None
This Round's Mini-game: Referral ServicesOnce again, I ask to count the number of references that have been made. But wait! It isn’t just for today! It is for the whole month of March! This shouldn’t be too hard since I have made many references a day for a long time. The dates you want to search from are March 1st to March 31st. The ‘mini-game’ will be active while March is still ending, but that is by design. Collaboration is fine, but there will be no prize splitting.
Entries by non-players are accepted. Prizes for those entries are added to the general pool for later redistribution. PM all questions. If they require clarification overall, then I will announce them.
What to Look For:1) Subtle references. The commercials and direct quotes are some of the few direct references that will be counted. The Characters, the Stages, the Items, the NPCs, etc are not counted. References to their games are only counted in plots or announcements. If in doubt, put it in, but find another just in case it is not counted.
2) Only look in Plots and Announcements. Everything else is virtually the same information every single time. Added to this ‘hint,’ only look in posts that I have made that contain plot or announcements. That means you have ignore Christopher’s wonderful FLCL reference and link (Love that song!) as well as any other references in players’ posts or my corrections. (No staff-chucks :()
3) Double references. Big hint on what I mean by that: Mr Kennedy’s NBC-style PSA with the Resident Evil twist. Or Snake, Sam, and Raiden’s commercial. They are a little subtler, but worth two references on the final tally.
4) Multiple references from the same source count as one large reference. Just mentioning that since I found one like that on Day 1.
5) Last hint:
Start here and go to the end of the thread.
6) Anything else? This space will be used for clarification if needed.
Entry Dates: Now to April 5 (At midnight PST/NST)
Winners posted: April 7 UpdateEntry Format:

All entries that are a minimum of 25 references long get +20 Points automatically. The entry with the most, accurate references wins. The list of references that I have found will be posted at the end of the mini-game.
