Gladiator X: There will be blood

[EPW]

Yes, Spacius did in match 5.

[DrSpike]

Then he has a case for not dropping Felch. Let's give him a bit longer.

If he still doesn't show I'll happily send orders for his last fight.

[Spaced Cowboy]

Yeah, I don't have an issue with it, I prefer to look at it as though the matches never took place, rather than I'm getting hosed out of a KO.

Alas tis only a forum game, no sense in getting all bent-out-of-shape about it.

/me you hear him!!!!







/me thinks wishes & hopes he gets to teach Heathen Space Hero a lesson, only a forum game, huh?

[EPW]

I think we should give felch a couple more days.

Seconded

[DrSpike]

And then ban him from the next Gladiators.

[EPW]

I could randomly select some of Felch's old orders and use them.

[Theben]

I figured those who fought him would object to losing their points. I am willing to accept 1 pt. b/c even though I haven't fought him yet, considering his past battles and my exp I'll probably win (which would really get me 3 pts). Then again he seems to have finally figured out the game wrt power and giving me 2+ points would guarantee that I made the semis. Getting 0 pts. would be unfair to me.

However if all involved are willing to drop their matches against Felch (should it become necessary) then we should do that.

Are they different enough that you need to

You could always use
11 11 11
11 12 11
11 11 11

[DrSpike]

From the ideas mentioned:

Removing Felch - support conditional on SC's support, who loses out (but should still make the semis)

Giving Theben the draw - totally do not support as it's really unfair on Theben (who must have been at SC's stash I think to suggest this)

Giving Theben 2 points: bit bizarre, can't support.

Giving Theben 3 points - best of the 'point giving' options, but I like to see my rivals earn their points, even if it is versus Felch.

Using random orders - can't support this either as it's basically gifting Theben a KO.

And a new one:

I'm guessing Theben doesn't like the one where I send Felch's orders. But we could get the 6th placed player to send, and that is much closer to being fair, even though Gramps has played better than Felch.

Also, Felch.

[EPW]

How about letting a third party(darkcloud?) send in orders for Felch?

[DrSpike]

Yes, that's just a variant of my last suggestion. I thought it would be easier to use an existing player, but by all means sound DC out about it.

I think Theben should have a say about it first.

(I read your post btw )

[snoopy369]

Can we just do ... something ... ????

[DrSpike]

The Doctor beheads all the other competitors in frustration at the lack of bloodletting. EPW has no alternative but to declare him the winner.

[snoopy369]

Fortunately, Snoopy369 is too short to be hit by the Doctor's axe, and instead guns down the Doctor. EPW is then forced to declare Snoopy369 the winner.

[DrSpike]

First, I have rapier wit not an axe. Second, if you had rapier wit yourself you would have come up with an original statement.

[EPW]

As I said earlier, you can send in your orders for round 2.

[Theben]

Before sending round 2 why don't you finish posting round 1- i.e. Snoopy vs the Doctor and Ludd vs. Trollum.

Not until you agree to one of the proposed solutions.

[DrSpike]

That's right, you keep him in line.

[Theben]

Quiet you.

Since there isn't much opposition to it I'd say remove the matches vs. Felch.

[Spaced Cowboy]

Can't we wait to see if DC will fill in for him when he returns?

[Theben]

If Society is any indication of how he handles numbers, you can just give me the KO now.

[EPW]

Well, Felchum is online now....

[DrSpike]

Online and not posting here.

Felchum.

Have you spoken to DC or are we just removing Felch?

DC has agreed to take over.

Hopefully this goes well.
