First Round Discussion Thread

Urouge

@I:

OMG! I can't comprehend such reprehensible behavior Urouge–I thought better of you, to accuse out camp so

But I didn't lie, did I? :ninja:

and all in the name of trying to steal pity votes from a character like Queen Otohime-Sama

So you're saying that Otohime is going to require pity votes? :w00t:

who was killed for her convictions and desire to save all of the children of FI, leaving her own small children motherless.

She can get in line on that one.

Nia

@Sai-chan:

Also, Nia, I'm totally making my own version of Buggittori. :ninja:

… you got my undivided attention. :ninja:

Sai-chan

Muahahahaha~ :ninja:

I survived the buster call

@Urouge:

But I didn't lie, did I? :ninja:

I will not grace this nonsense with a response. I will simply ask you to look into your heart and ask yourself if votes are worth… this.

So you're saying that Otohime is going to require pity votes? :w00t:

LOL. Indeed not, sir, as you well know. I said you were trying to drum up pity for Buggy to steal votes from Otohime-sama.

She can get in line on that one.

Such cynicism in one so young. It brings me great sadness. I think, should you find it in yourself to really look at Otohime-sama, you would find reason to have faith.

…she says with a response. But yeah, that's an admission if I've ever heard one. :ninja:

LOL. Indeed not, sir, as you well know. I said you were trying to drum up pity for Buggy to steal votes from Otohime-sama.

Nah, there's no need for that, since Buggy can stand on his own. After all, I respect Otohime, as I've said numerous times. I'm not the one playing dirty pool, here. :ninja:

Otohime's a great character, and I've never tried to downplay her. But the truth is, losing a mother as she sticks to her convictions is pretty much commonplace in OP at this point.

Stop fighting everyone … the children are watching! :ninja:

Urouge

But fighting with the opposition is part of the fun of the tournament. :sad:

Pochipochi

What's mommy urouge doing….....

Sai-chan

@Urouge:

But fighting with the opposition is part of the fun of the tournament. :sad:

Side's, we're teaching children how to have a friendly compitition. That way, later in life when they enter a contest and they loose horribly, they'll know not to get pissed off and beat up the winner. :ninja:

Urouge

@Holy:

I don't think you want me as a mommy. :ermm:

@Sai-chan:

Side's, we're teaching children how to have a friendly compitition. That way, later in life when they enter a contest and they loose horribly, they'll know not to get pissed off and beat up the winner. :ninja:

That sort of depends on the competition, doesn't it? :ninja:

piratemarimo

So what you're saying is… that there are times when it's okay to beat up the winner? Do tell.

Urouge

Well… fighting competitions. I mean, if they can't learn to beat up the winner, then that's just giving up, which is sad.

piratemarimo

For some reason I was expecting a completely different answer.

Urouge

Hmm… it's okay if the person sucks and deserves it? :ninja:

kappa-san

@akagami7:

well, shanks is pretty sure out, I'll have to put my hopes on buggy.

Why Buggy?! Akagami, there are better characters out there to support. Don't support Buggy. He'll destroy your sanity.
Comm'on Akagami! Where on this together, right? :sad:

Sai-chan

@Urouge: That's basically saying it's okay to be a sore loser, lol.

Urouge

That's true, you should beat them up before the competition so they can receive a lifetime's worth of pity for it.

…like Nancy Kerrigan. :unsure:

See? This is the twisted logic of a… _fan_atic. That is what is truly sad. See? From among the youngest among us, comes wisdom. Sai is absolutely right, lol.

piratemarimo

lol I was thinking you meant to go track down the winner once the competition is already over and jump 'em when they least expect it in a dark alley and pummel them so that they are unable to ever again compete. Or go the route of Dan Vs.

Urouge

That's… absolute justice!

...I must think on this.

Sai-chan

Weren't we trying to teach the children not to do all those things? xD

When did the logic spiral out of control?

It's like a cycle of hatred that must be stopped! :ninja:

Sai-chan

Not a cycle of hatred, more like a cycle of crazy metaphors that just keep getting stranger and stranger until all you can think of is 'hahaha lol wtf'

I survived the buster call

@Urouge:

LOL 'Rouge, you poor misguided dear.

I gotta go get the boy from a party, so perhaps it would be wise for there not to be more tonight from me… I'll leave you with the rope you are currently using. It seems sufficient, lol. :ninja:

Prepare yourself, dear. Only hours until the onslaught begins...

Urouge

Buster Call will raise the mighty pacifist boxer. A terrifying man who stands there and takes punches until his opponent, full of regret over his actions, concedes the match and retires so that he can use his talents to ring a bell outside of Walmart during the holiday season.

I survived the buster call

(sigh) brat.

OK Are we really talking about this topic seriously,:wassat: and on this thread? (Isn't it a tad OT):sad:

Er, well, ok… A competition is about a whole lot more than winning, Mr Urouge, as I'm sure you know, despite your seeming insistence otherwise. A large part of it centers around development of character traits like good sportsmanship, and respect for your opponent and yourself, among others--and that involves both the winners and the losers, sir.

So... of course the boxer would fight back. And once he won, he would graciously shake hands/tap gloves with his opponent. And then he would hold his hand high in victory!

kappa-san

Buggy is such a scandalous clown.

Shanks is a perv. No wonder he lost.
Also, he hits on Buggy, which gives him more minus points.
Everything and everyone whom involves Buggy, disintegrates.

Holy shit on a shit sandwich. THIS. IS. AWESOME. __ The Buggy camp has made me cave in like a deck of cards, and the real campaigning hasn't even started yet. It must be some kind of sorcery.

and lol at the ask buggy questions.

Thank you Mari! It was fun editing Nia's Hattori avvie, and, for some reason, I feel as if I've made myself in history. o: Haha, no, it's not sorcery. Just determination and the love of a character. <3

Oh, that's just the tip of the iceburg. And this has nothing to do with Mr. Iceburg. ;)

Femme

I propose a wild card match at the end for the losers of extremely tight matches, aka Hannyabal vs. Hattori (for now)

Kitsune Inferno

Marimo, won't you please give your signature to the Otohime camp?

We dream of a day when a Fishmen can make it to the final match, and we will realize that dream through Otohime.

So please, for the sake of an entire race, vote for Otohime?

Sai-chan

She's ours, Kitsu. ;) I've already promised her a picture!

Urouge

… :wassat:

A large part of it centers around development of character traits like good sportsmanship, among others--and that involves both the winners and the losers, sir.

On one hand that's true, but on the other hand you've been attending too many kid's "everybody gets a trophy day" events. :ninja:

Winning, and striving to win, is a part of it. Otherwise it wouldn't be a competition. It would be a… uhh... playday.

So… of course the boxer would fight back. And once he won, he would graciously shake hands/tap gloves with his opponent. And then he would hold his hand high in victory!

How can he shake hands with someone whose mangled carcass is being carried out of the ring on a stretcher?

"So tell me, Murder Hands, how did you attain the strength and skills necessary to snap another boxer's neck with a single punch?"

"Well, Ron, I owe it all to my mother, Buster Call, who taught me the importance of good sportsmanship. That's why I tattooed 'O K T O H I M E' across my fingers like this."

"I see. I'd like to ask you what everyone must be thinking right now, but you scare the living piss out of me. So instead, is there anything you'd like to tell the kids who are watching at home?"

"Yeah. Mermaids are hot."

Kitsune Inferno

The Fishmen and the Mermen haven't ever made it to the Quarter-Finals. :(

Otohime only wishes for equality among races, and that can only happen through our united voice.

She begs you reconsider and vote for a new horizon. Where man and fish can walk the same ground hand-in-hand.

That is the will of Otohime.

Sai-chan

Wear your nose proudly, Mari. :ninja:

piratemarimo

My soul. It's hurting so badly. The matches have had some tough competition, but when I thought for a short while, the choice was clear. But the next match is almost physically painful for me. Otohime-sama! How can I make this up to you?! It.. It's not that I don't want to sign… but... :cwy:

edit:

S-Sai-chan?! That.. that's... mind blown

Sai-chan

Mari! Did you lie to me when you said you'd vote Buggy? Did you? ;~;

edit: Yes, yes it is

piratemarimo

but but but!! I love Otohime too! :cwy: That avatar's looking pretty cool… but... to wear... or not to wear. that is the question. :unsure:

Sai-chan

Me and Urouge love Otohime too, you know! ;n; Marrii…

Mr M

@Sai-chan:

Me and Urouge love Otohime too, you know! ;n; Marrii…

Oi don't forget me :/

piratemarimo

:unsure: …......... O-Okay!! But I'll only wear it for a short while!

Sai-chan

@metteminne:

Oi don't forget me :/

Oops, sorry Mette. xD;

See, all us Buggy supporters love Otohime! If it weren't for the matchups, we'd totally vote Otohime. But alas…

edit: @Mari: Yay! <3

Now I don't have to rethink making that Crocodile and Bananawani picture for you~

piratemarimo

There! Are you happy now…?

Mr M

Marimo , you are still not sure? DOn't make me post the BuggyCroc again

piratemarimo

Sai-chan, after all this, I hope that picture is gonna be in full color.

@ Mette I have to admit, the Buggy-Croc = epic win

Sai-chan

@piratemarimo:

There! Are you happy now…?

;w;

@piratemarimo:

Sai-chan, after all this, I hope that picture is gonna be in full color.

When wasn't it gonna be in full color?

@metteminne:

Marimo , you are still not sure? DOn't make me post the BuggyCroc again

Personally, I think Croc would rather partner up with Buggy during this round. Because, really, taking over a kingdom, that's so seven years ago.

Mr M

Oh and Buster~~ , Urouge is not so agressive cause he is a Buggy fan. He is cause he is the Akainu mod of the forums~
