Welcome to Survival of the Fittest, a RPing board loosely based off of Koshun Takami's Battle Royale, with its own unique plot and spin on the 'deadly game'. We've been around quite a while, and are now in our thirteenth year, so don't worry about us going anywhere any time soon!

If you're a newcomer and interested in joining, then please make sure you check out the rules. You may also want to read the FAQ, introduce yourself and stop by the chat to meet some of our members. If you're still not quite sure where to start, then we have a great New Member's Guide with a lot of useful information about getting going. Don't hesitate to PM a member of staff (they have purple usernames) if you have any questions about SOTF and how to get started!

Let the games begin!

Alrighty, everyone taking part in the bowling alley thread for the pre-game have been asked to stop all posting in it until the staff can take a look at it. Please and Thank-you! ^_^
It's so nice

I wonder how it would be for these requests to work when I make them?

Chad's post was perfectly acceptable, though going for an arm break as his first move might be a bit extreme. When using a hold in an RP fight, you write assuming success for the flow of the story. This is not the same as god moding, like RePeate did in his opening move. You're not allowed to call the hits and the opponent's reaction, but you are allowed to write a move assuming it works, describing how said move works. This is much easier to do with a grapple than a strike, but the same principle applies. Read any RP fight where one opponent used a grapple, and you'll see this in effect.

Hiya, jerk! Please don't post until edits have been completed, as doing so causes confusion/messes up the queue.

Like I did? Where? I'd like to see a quote of this so called "God-moding" I did...

My problem isn't that his move is legal or illegal, it's just turning this thread into a damn circus. THese are High school kids... when has anyone here EVER seen stuff like that happen from a high school kid in real life? Forgive me for trying to keep things realistic here...

Dude, you edited out the god-moding on my request. Your post even says "EDITED ON REQUEST" in it...also it doesn't even matter the legality of your move, but my move that is the current debate right now.

Before you edited the post to remove it (you even said "edited by request" in it), your opening attacks clearly called the hit right out, including how they effected Josh. You said in the post that the punches hit, hurting Josh, you wrote out his reactions (such as rising his arms to block) and clearly stated he had been knocked on the ground. That is god moding, not writing assuming success.

Yeah, and guess what? It's edited. I complied. There is no god-moding, so don't accuse me of it. What there is is an over the top exageration of something that would never happen in real life... and it's never been in any of my posts, but seems to follow "certain" players more than others, a fact all too often brought up by people on these boards.

I wasn't saying your edited move was god moding. I said the move before you edited was.

Let it be known that I've done the exact same move to other RPers and the staff never even mentioned me having to edit it out, it was also in one of my threads that went under heavy scrutiny and was combed for edits. On another note, feel free to not hide that you're targeting me, really, it doesn't hurt anyone.

I'm targeting the fact that you're making a shitshow of our beloved thread... what the hell is Josh even doing there?

Guys, seriously. It doesn't matter. There's not posting in that thread until staff reads it over and decides. End of Story.
It's so nice

Last I checked anyone was allowed to RP anywhere they pleased on this board. Also, Gabe started the fight, not Josh.

Did you READ his previous post? are you even reading the same thread...? I know you're standing up for Slakker, Kyle, but c'mon... who does shit like that? I'm logging off for the night. I can't do this right now. Mods, it's in your hands. I'm done arguing my case.
