[2]Fight Format - One of the following Choices.
Free-form: Characters base actions on words alone, playing reasonably and remembering that there are no supermen in this setting type.
Dice-Reliant: We use Warden/some bot to determine success on attacks.
Mixed Blend: Fight outcomes are determined by dicebot, but individual outcomes are done free-form.

For more information, please check the last couple of pages on the main TMP discussion thread.

I appologise for the boards going down during the polls. We had no warning that anything was about to go wrong. Mind you, neither do I now if anything was fixed...

We have a draw between fighting based solely in dice rolls and fighting where individual hits are based on rp but the overall outcomes are diced. Would you like to have the polls reopened or give Tharivious the power to decide?
