I could agree to gaining 5 Yen at the start of each new tier. Since you can't fall from a Tier once you've gained it everyone would have to end up with the same amount in the end since you couldn't drop a rank and gain it back along with another yen.
As for the 'Escape Disgrace' item, is it needed any longer? We don't have disgrace ranks built into the system currently.
As for the initial style (or location), I thought you were able to choose from the entire list of 50 for the very first one gained and the rest in later tiers were picked from those used during the last fight of the previous tier. This allows people to build a character concept alot easier and know that they can have at least one style or location that fits their concept. At least this is what I wrote into the rules as posted above since I thought I remembered this coming up in the playtest fight or the general discussion thread we had started with. If it's not there somewhere, then I would propose that the rule be amended to that and would like votes for or against the idea with any needed discussion.

Phoenix: 'Escape Disgrace can STILL keep for from dropping ranks... thus you wouldn't drop from Honor Knight 5 to Knight 4 if you used that item.. thus saving you from having to fight two more fights rather than one to go up to the next tier for example.... that make sense? It's a little less effective than it was before due to not having disgrace ranks anymore.. but still could be very useful!
I feel choosing from the list of 50 signature Styles or Locations for the first Tier is perfectly fine... thus giving the player a bit more to work on background-wise the rest of them need to be chosen from move generated in the match causing you to go up a tier though... If anyone has objection to this... please feel free to toss your two cents it... I take pennies ...

No objections from me. I feel it's previously been too much of a hassle to get a signature style/location that fit your character - you probably didn't get it from a fight, you might not have found a doyo/gang teaching it, and items were really expensive.

I guess it's time to dust off my old character and place a challenge. He will start as a commoner of coarse.
Posting a challenge!

You have NO idea how happy this makes me to see this game picking up momentum once more.... this is like a slice of my past being brought back to me that I can share with you all... I hope this experience is and will be as much fun as it has been for me in the past...

I posted a challenge and I am open to judge any matches that come up as well.

Rathan, I modified the 'Advancement and Ranks' and the 'Yen and Purchasable Items' paragraphs in the rules to add the bit about gaining 5 Yen for each Tier attained. You might copy those sections or requote the whole thing to get the changes into the first post of the thread.
The 5 yen at each tier sounds good to me. My original suggestion of a single potion of greed was kind of like that but only a 1 shot to gain some yen. Getting the equivalent at every tier works better for the long run I think.

This game looks like fun. I obviously have some reading to do, but in checking out the IC threads it seems pretty cool.
I might be interested if you are still looking for players, assuming I can figure out how everything works.
