Do you have to concentrate to make your heart beat?

If it's something that happens regularly INSIDE your body. Your brain would probably know how to handle it without you having to do it manually. Basically, all I'm saying is if the capability is biological, then obviously you wouldn't need to wave your arms or yell at no one in particular for an hour to do so.

Character A gains power when enraged.

Character B generates a static amount of power per post, and can charge by simply not spending it.

Character C has an infinite depth and can go to the well for as big of a bucket as they like.

The ways to gather power for a stronger move differ, but the same variable still applies: Effort is proportional to the power of the attack.

Thus, time.

Character A can only gain a boost to their physical and probably supernatural abilities, but it's short term. In addition, they can't simply throw out 3-post+ level attacks in an instant. However, if someone uses a desperate attack, they can, but it will expire most of their energy supply, both magical and physical, cause I don't like people suddenly "running of magic" and then saying 'Well, guess I should fight with full body energy!"

Character B is the basis of charging. It's like in any fighting game. As the fight goes, your super bar charges. Just, the charges are small, so, it'll take twice as long. For example, if it takes five posts to charge an attack, it's going to take ten if the character has been engaged in non-stop fast, action brawling for those same posts. And even then, he has to find a way to get that attack ready and activated.

As for Character C, he wouldn't even be allowed in.

Or your character can just, not have a charge ability, and instead compliment its combat with weaker, spammable abilities.

=O

Ai-ya!

No, you don't have to do that. It's all for flavor. Just some indication of preparation needs to be noted in the post.

Oh, all righty then. Cool.

Anywho, this s**t is getting started on Monday or what?

I'm out of the country for a week tomorrow, so it would be good if I knew when I should start tuning into this b***h.

So it starts on Monday and ends on Wednesday of next week?

The whole tourney is only ten days!?!?!?!?
O_O

Holy crap, did we weed some people out or something?

Also, I like how Drejak is set up as far as his powers go. And I think it was cool of the judges to accept it.

Actually, review the profile of a certain lightning elemental(ist?), since I'm pretty sure that's more or less the exact definition he used for his meta-powers to explain why he doesn't need to charge. Just because you can go to the well and fill a thrity-gallon bucket does not mean you can do it rapidly in succession without outright passing the ******** out.

B... I'm not sure about that. If you get 2 bars of energy out of 20 every post, fighting does not necessarily mean they don't get that power.

*shrugs*

Though I do agree, effort is proportional to power. Some people can just do it quickly and pay in stamina; others build it up over time.

Put it this way: if someone spams ELEMENTALBALL MAX PLUS PLUS for a few posts within the first five posts, I would frown very heavily on them even being able to use powers for msot of the rest of the fight.

Damon had that problem last GTB with his psychic powers. It would have helped him just to use the psychic point system that DnD and other roleplay systems used to help balance his powers more.

So if a fight has yet to be ended by the ten-day time limit, are the judges just going to call the fight and then determine the winner based on scores?
