Game of Death

So, it's about 4am here, and I just got up and started opening my e-mail.

Good grief, said Charlie Brown, What have I done to deserve this? Actually, I think he said, AUGH! Regardless, the boy had it coming. Whether it was refusing to stand away from the kite-eating tree, refusing to train for the baseball game, or refusing to find someone different to kick the football, Charlie Brown liked the pain, and he asked for it.

More seriously...

I only got ONE e-mail after midnight, and since what's in the e-mail is stuff that was already under discussion, and it's only one, I'm going to go ahead and keep it (i.e., it only had one new thing, and even that was from an earlier discussion :)).

However, I am not taking any more as of this post (even ones that refer to earlier discussions). There are plenty of questions I still haven't answered, and I've collected every e-mail in a special folder which I will be going through today and tomorrow. I won't be devoting every waking hour to this, but I plan to be done this weekend :).

I'll check back in here every once in a while, and I'll post anything approved here first, before editting it into the web page.
 

Nix that. I will post anything here after I've finished the web page. The web page is taking a fair amount of work, and I want to make sure it's fully functional. I've replied to each of you individually with approved/banned/altered/nerfed stuff.

Man. Y'all gave me quite a bit to do :D.

Also, to repeat: I am not accepting ANY FURTHER OGL STUFF. None. Nada. Zero. Not even if it's a prereq required by something else you sent me. Not even if it's the only thing you've ever loved in the world. Go weep into your core books, then use something from there ;). The "what twinky item can I get in" part of the contest is over - from here on out it's all about character design within pre-existing rules, and strategy in the arena.
 

I am still discussing some things in e-mail. I am reading through the rules carefully as I do so. This equals SLOOOOOOW responses. Please have patience with me.

Speaking of slow responses, reapersaurus, I just responded to your extremely excellent points. Please check your e-mail!
 

got it.

I'm sure it's a ton of work we've plopped on your lap, but all i can say is... you asked for it! ;)

keep up the good work in wading thru it all.

Are you planning on waiting to post what's been approved until it's ALL done, or if the muse strikes you, will you be posting tidbits as you get 'em written up?
 

reaper; mind if i ask what sort of design theme you're rolling towards? since Smackdowns are discouraged, I'm interested in where you're going instead of a shield-master...
 

Smackdowns aren't discouraged exactly, just the ones I can spot a mile away :). And they are discouraged from working more than once :).

Well, okay, fine, they're discouraged ;).

To answer reapersaurus' question, I was PLANNING to post tidbits, but it's more than enough work just getting everything assembled. At this point (60% of the way done), I will be happy to get the web page complete and running smoothly, and then I'll start thinking about posting tidbits.

As it is, everything relevant in this thread is in the web page, and I'm working my way through the e-mails. When I've got that, I'll also have a fair idea of what questions I've left unanswered, and be able to crank those out.

The website is looking good though (as long as you like spartan no-graphics design :)).
 

where's the webpage? i'm probably a blind moron, but i missed the link (if you posted it).

edit; I'm stupid, i didn't realize you hadn't finished.

well, yeah i actually do kinda mind, no offense.
But I haven't come close to finalizing a design - just vague ideas that I hope I included enough OGL material to pull off in the face of (I'm sure) some monstrosities that some of you put together.
