| 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! |

Yes, I read the post. Dude, I'm an experienced RP fighter myself, I know what's godmoding and what's not. Technically I'm better than Slacker (in our fights I'm 2-0 against him now). The move might be a bit excessive, but it is a legal hold. Also, you have no right to tell anyone where they can and can't RP, and by throwing the first punch you literally started the fight. |

**EDITED**...lol For fuck sakes: RePeate: I read your move, it was god-modding. You fixed it. Slakker: Your current move isn't god modding, but you fucking wrote it in a way that gives RePeate no other option other than to have Gabe end up with a broken arm. Both of you are/were wrong. End of story...or is it...no it isn't. Slakker, this is a prime example of what I have been arguing is wrong with you/your writing style from the beginning. Blah blah, Scipher's attacking me again, blah fuckin blah. RePeate, rookie mistake, since Pre-Game is really your first good solid RPing chance, but it was a dumb one that hopefully you will not make in the future without prior consent. It is kind of stupid that Josh involve himself in something that has nothing to do with any storyline in the past that is known at all yes. Kyle you are right, he has every right to be there, but once again, WRITER CONSIDERATION needs to be shown. Slakk, it wouldn't hurt you to talk to the people in the thread before hand. Yes I know this takes away spontaneity, but it also makes for a more peaceful and enjoyable Pre-Game. Flame away. SEACREST...I mean um...SCIPHER OUT! |

Actually, there are counters for that move. If RePeate tries one that works he could use it to break the hold. Heck, I wouldn't be surprised if you know a Kimura counter yourself.

RP fighting is literally the art of making your opponent think they have no choice but to take the move, it is the only thing that prevents you from being countered. Doing this without godmoding is a skill that needs to develop, but I think even you acknowledge that I can do that pretty well. |

OH MY GOD. EVERYONE JUST STOP PLEASE. JUST STOP POSTING HERE, STOP POSTING IN THE BOWLING ALLEY, JUST STOP. Being on this site is supposed to be a fun thing to do in your spare time. This isn't fun at all, it's feeling like a job for Christsake. So come on, grow up, leave it be. We'll continue once Staff looks it over. That's why they're there. So Please. Everyone chill out, just let this be the last thing said. We'll all go to bed and wake up feeling better. |

(The above makes me sad because I've seen Giselle's angry face. The phrase, if looks could kill you'd be blown up comes to mind) Yes it is an art, an art that not everyone is skilled at. Kyle, yes I do know a way out of Kimura's but that is because I've Greco-Roman wrestled for a long time, and have started in with Brazilian Jiujitsu for the last 3 months. Not everyone in the world knows how to get out of a kimura, and thats where the problem is. You guys all have to understand the boundaries of what your fellow writers know and don't know, what they're good at (writing wise) and what they aren't. Perfect example: I've been told I'm good with communication. I've been told that people are really able to understand, and sense the tone with which my characters communicate. On the other side, I fucking fail at hand to hand combat RPing, and its something I'll work on. Just maybe talk to the people then. Sicne you two are the damn experts, work with us and make us better. PS: I'VE DECIDED I LOVE YOU ALL COMPLETE WITH CAPS LOCK, LETS ALL GO EAT PANCAKES TO MAKE OURSELVES CALM AGAIN!!! |

Scipher, I'd be more than willing to give anybody advice on RP fighting and me and Kyle have (me and Ace have become good friends because of it), seriously. If anybody wants any tips they can PM me, but if they start an RP fight with me...well I'm going to try and win it unless I've planned otherwise or me and the RPer come to an agreement. However, my current status among the Bowling Alley RPers makes that nearly impossible, but if anybody (you, RePeate, even the mods) want my help with RP fighting then I would do my best to give them tips. |

I didn't mean to imply that I was better than anyone here (except Chad, and I said that jokingly. :P), the only way I meant that "I'm experienced at this" stuff was to tell RePeate that I know what I'm talking about. I'm sorry if that is the vibe you got. I will second Chad's statement though, if anyone comes up to me and asks for pointers, I'd be glad to help out. |

Okay. Shit people, from what I can tell Slacker is not doing anything wrong. You're in a thread right now where people were arguing prior, and he escalated the fight and you guys accepted it, by not stopping the plot from moving forward after his first post you allowed the event to unfold.. You've got a chick chucking a bowling ball, a guy throwing punches like Rocky and Slack's response is one that, quite honestly, can be screwed with a simple, "Gabe slipped out of his grasp before he got a good enough hold." So, you decide what to do, accept the attack or don't, you are allowed to write something that negates what Slack suggests your character should do. Okay? Okay. Plus, a 6 pound bowling ball is not heavy. Try a 12 pound with one arm. I've seen a young child use an 8 or 10. Bowling Alley is open again, and I would suggest that after this many of you move on to a different scene in pregame because just the sheer length of the topic is probably what is making you guys get uber crabby at each other. Too much investment. |
