First Round Discussion Thread

Juvar

But then Nia would win regardless :ninja:

So, can any event-mod tell us what will happen to Otohime and Buggy? Maybe it's even not such a bad idea to involve us in the discussion?

Stalemate! Stalemate! Stalemate!

I guess I can give Buggy his nose back.

It's about damn time!

@Hiroy:

Thanks. The goal was to make the match as exiting as possible, whilst taunting the Buggy camp, whilst resulting to 120 pages of pure campaigning mayhem from both sides. The question is… Does anyone have the energy to do that again? I'm completely bushed.

lol, maybe not anytime soon, but I totally would do that again. Although the only other character I would do that for is Crocodile.

@Riddler:

I tried to read all 70 pages before I would cast my vote, so I first could see all the (really awesome, btw) campaigns, but I failed miserably. At page 50, I voted Otohime, thx to Kitsunes cool campaign. Still, all the Buggy campaigns were really great. I added Urouges amv to my Youtube favorites. :wub:

Sai and mette have crazy endurance skills. Buggy would be damn proud!

lol, I bet you could find all the Buggy campgaigns within the first 40-50 pages or so, and then a random new one a few dozen pages later. The Otohime campaigns are in a similar predicament, but in the last 60 pages or so. We posted reletively the same campaigns over and over again. xD

And, lol, I don't. I have no stamina whatsoever. At all. I'm just glad I made it all the way to the end. Thank you, though! <3

@piratemarimo:

Nia has started a Hatto-volution. Soon all of AP will succumb to the bird… XD

@metteminne:

Everybody is using Hattori avatars now? :o

Everytime I see a new Hattori avatar I keep thinking 'there are so many Nias… @___@'

Mr M

It feels so quiet now on AP

trappedolphin

it's like everyone's resting from the insane match yesterday :P

Mr M

Well we deserve it , that match was crazy

Sai-chan

I just finished a 14 hour nap because of the Otohime/Buggy match. lol

I just hope I can fall asleep again. It's 3am here…

Kylor

Dang, I guess it's too late now to ask for a Hattoring Bear, huh?

You can sleep in Buggy

Sleep well

You could still try to ask for one

Sai-chan

It's been asked by an event mod that if you want a Hattori avvie, just pm Nia for one instead of spamming this place~

And now I must apologize for not noticing that earlier.

I shall quietly take my leave now.

Sai-chan

lol, don't worry, I think it was a few pages back, so it's easy to miss.

See you~

Juvar

… Suddenly it's all so calm again... this heavy silence, floating around you, pressing down on your skin, like a thick blanket of surprisingly warm cotton.. Buggy and Otohime both emerge, not as enemies, but as equals.. and suddenly it's all quiet. This is tranquility - harmony in perfection. I salute you, Arlong Park. May this match never be forgotten.

Sai-chan

Dammit, I hope my scanner will stop being a little jerk so I can post that Otohime/Buggy handshake pic

@metteminne:

Get yours son and become one of us. :-)

Mr M

Well mine are used by Nia i think :/

Juvar

@Enzeru:

Hello beary Brother :ninja: so what IS happening with the match now?! Doesn't anyone know?..

Enzeru

That's a shame. :( But I guess Buggy waffles still taste delicious, eh?

And to say something topic related… The last battle (Kuma vs. Zoro) will hopefully be a close one. Although I'm not sure whom to vote for. The Mugiwara pirates are great no matter what. But Kuma surprised us through his selfless actions.

Don Quichotte De Flamingo

Having a Kuma-related avatar(or at least a Pacifista,thought) and still not sure to vote Kuma in the tournament..rly rare.

I knew it! Now this guy desperately needs his bible.
And yeah, this might look weird but it is what it is.

Jabra

I would use a Jabrattori, but I'm lacking da skillz's :(

Juvar

PM Nia about it

See, at least mine has a bible… hehehe. And I will totally vote the teddybear!

Suicu

What an awesome match. And lovin' the Hattori Avatars
I would also replace my Ava with an awesome Hattori one, but I already changed it few days ago.

Luffyko

Wow, that Otohime/Buggy match was insane!
120 freaking pages?! And it all ended in a tie.
Epic! xD

Nia

It will stay really quite until Croc vs WB … or did I overlook anything?

I'm really looking forward to see how Ace vs Moria turns out for some reason :ninja:

@Sai-chan:

Everytime I see a new Hattori avatar I keep thinking 'there are so many Nias… @___@'

I keep thinking I'm looking at my own posts … which is why I instantly went back to dancing Hattori to distinguish myself, lol.

a week to go till croc vs pops.

Where the hell is gaara when you need him the most -.-

What the hell are you talking about? That's the last person on earth we need. It's like saying we need AGOG for a Perona match.

You did overlook Roger Vs Sabo! but i'm almost sure that Sabo will win that one…

Mr M

Moriah better win

I HOPE Sabo will win…
he deserves it....

You mean Lise v Beka? Yes I'm looking forward to it too. Guess whose side I'll be on? :ninja:

@Nia:

xD I keep doing that too, with a certain other Lawttori. It's keeping me on my toes!

EDIT: @metteminne:

Moriah better win

It's a good thing I like you Mette

Mr M

Sorry Charmed but Moriah is one of my most liked chars of op

Which is exactly why i want him :D

Guess we can't agree all the time. It's on ;)

its an uphill battle. Ace had less vote then beka.

That's just motivation to get a good campaign ;)

Hey that's low. We won't even have Dervish and Trashcat to campaign for Croc like last year. Pops already had his moments of fame. :P AP, make the right choice and support the pimp. I get the feeling I'm the only one who never liked Pops from the outset, though.

Going against your father, brat?

Whitebeard is cool but my loyalty lies with Croc. I never really care about Whitebeard when he first came on the scene but he hadn't done nothing until Marineford. Now I need to think of a good Croc campaign.

CharmedWard

This is the only fight I can be swayed on. Croc was an amazing villian way back when. Also I actually believed he had killed Luffy for one moment, and of course there's the whole Impel Down thing. And Pops…..well he's Pops

Juvar

Ryuuma when seeing the current state of his match against Kureha:

This is turning into a Hattori festival, I just realised. Love it.

piratemarimo

that won't work on me. I am immune to Pops' charm! yes, even his mustache which can store up to six bananas is not enough!! If I had room in my sig I would add this:

Noqanky

I'm with others in hoping the Zoro vs. Kuma match is a close one. Before the first round I had both of them as characters that deserved to go far in the tournament, and it will be sad to see one of them go. I'm leaning towards Kuma, but I'll see what kind of campaigns are used.

The other close matches I'm not as ambivalent/excited about. I'm already set on Moriah, Sabo, and Croc (sorry shirohige, but you won last year, so it's time for the pimp to have his chance.)

eerie

It warms my heart to see all the Croc supporters!

warms me it does!!
