Chaos_Redefined vs. MLG: Liar's battle! [Ref: Dark Sparrow]

[chaos_redefined]

So, a while back, I posted an idea for a battle. It is based off Liar's Dice, which appeared in one of the pirates of the carribean movies. I've modified it slightly for ease.

At the beginning of each round, each player states a number. That is the amount of damage they believe their opponent will be dealt. For example, I might say 20, while DL might say 30. Then, we choose to either accept or deny that damage. I'll accept DL's 30, while DL will deny my 20. The round is then held. There are 4 possible cases
1) I accepted DL's 30. He dealt me less than 30 damage. Therefore, he takes 30 damage and I take 0.
2) I accepted DL's 30, and he dealt 30 or more damage. Therefore, I take 30 damage, and DL takes 0.
3) DL denied my 20, and I dealt him less than 20 damage. I take 20 damage and DL takes 0.
4) DL denied my 20, and I dealt him 20 damage or more. DL takes however much damage I dealt him.

To clarify further, post order goes as follows:
Player 1 posts his expected damage output.
Player 2 posts his expected damage output, and accepts/denies Player 1's value.
Player 1 accepts/denies Player 2's value, and posts attacks
Player 2 posts attacks.

Please note that the ref for this match will need to be consistent. Randomized damage will mess with people's ability to analyze what is happening.

Other features of note: 2v2 match, one pokemon at a time
No banned moves
Largest amount of damage that can be specified is 40.
Abilities on.

I will start off with my Nightstalker, my male Sableye. Ability: Stall

[DarkestLight]

ref!! I get to be the irreplaceable immaculate immortal Jack Sparrow, savvy??

[chaos_redefined]

Lol. Ok, Jack Sparrow, you can ref.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

I'll accept and send out Lucian, the sound; my male Bronzong.

I'm not sure how it works, but I'll figure it out along the way.

I think I'll hurt you for 7HP next round.

EDIT: He has the Levitate ability.

[chaos_redefined]

I'll accept your 7 damage. I reckon I can do 10.

And, in an attempt to help things be more clear...

Since I accepted your damage, if Nightstalker takes 6 or less damage, it's 7. It's a self-imposed damage cap. However, if Nightstalker takes 7 or more damage, he takes none, and Lucian takes 7. So, you want to avoid dealing 7 or more damage. Dealing 0 is fine.

If you accept my 10, a similar situation occurs, but reversed.

Alternatively, if you deny my 10, and Lucian takes 10 points or more, then Lucian takes 10. If Lucian takes 9 points or less, then I take the 10 points, and Lucian remains unharmed.

And to clarify in advance, this includes end of round damage like Burn/Poison/Sandstorm/Whirlpool/etc... as well as self-inflicted damage from confusion, recoil, etc...

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

I will decline your ten damage. And attack right?

Hypnosis, then Calm mind, finish with Future Sight.

Protect to throw off the hypnosis, Will-o-Wisp and then Focus Blast

The Flying Dutchman. Nothng much here that a few good men couldn't clean up and ship shape to ship out, eh Gibbs? Gibbs?...Bugger. Seems I'm by myself then! The Immeasurable Captain Jack Sparrow.

And what to we have to owe the honor of two castaways already playing a game upon my sailing vessel without inviting me along?

Chaos: Rum. ::Tosses a jug::

Ah! Rum. The drink of drink that which is never wasted on lips as sully as mine, aye! Well then, carry on. I'll just construct a parliamentary seat for myself.

MLG states 7.

Nightstaler..the greeblyish looking bug eyes ghoul...body thing over there saunters over with a evil cackle and forces a magical wind to whip around it. Its pretty strong, even as that floating mirror with no soul tries to bounce light off its own chest to make the greebly thing fall asleep.

NS: -7E ===///=== Luc: -3E

Lucian is not discouraged, and floats up. Evidently it seems to be looking for rum. Well, Calm yourself little floating girl, I have your rum right here.

It's not listening to me. That's not even mean, that just plan preposterous. Who turns down rum on a fine vessel such as this? Nightslashamager does as well, instead opting to throw wisps of St Elmo's fire at the reflective 'mon.

NS: -2E ===///=== Luc: -3E +SpA/D Brn

I must say this is turning into a really less than riveting match. I've seen spoiled pork have more life then this pair. Lucain floats back down, and stares down by rum. No , yo can't have any. I offered before and you turned away like a Tortugan hooker. Maybe you should've been paying attention.

Oh dear. Lucian goes flying from the room by that blast. NO BLASTING HOLES IN MY SHIP!

Hrm, thing is tricky.

As per Stall, MLG you always go first.

Future Sight :~ 2 rds

(Fixed it. Got it now. Should be good.)

[chaos_redefined]

Nightstalker received 0 damage. I said he should take 7 or more. I was wrong, so I take the 7.

Lucian received 14 damage. He said he should take 10 or less. He was wrong, so he takes 10.

And I have no idea where 86 comes from. But yes, it is only the damage stated, not the damage inflicted.

[chaos_redefined]

Better... but not quite... Lucian is on 90. I'm on 83.

[DarkestLight]

That doesn't make sense Chaos.


1) I accepted DL's 30. He dealt me less than 30 damage. Therefore, he takes 30 damage and I take 0.<---Switch my name with MLG, and we have the same scenario. right?

[chaos_redefined]

Ah. I see the confusion now. I confused myself when I initially wrote this and didn't fix it. Umm...

I later on wrote this (post 5):
Since I accepted your damage, if Nightstalker takes 6 or less damage, it's 7. It's a self-imposed damage cap. However, if Nightstalker takes 7 or more damage, he takes none, and Lucian takes 7. So, you want to avoid dealing 7 or more damage. Dealing 0 is fine.

Essentially, MLG says "I can deal X damage." I either accept it (yes, you can deal X damage), or deny it (haha, no). If I'm right, he takes X damage, if I'm wrong, I take X damage.

Edit: If the concept here is too stupidly retarded, I'm fine ditching it. I just figured I'd look into ways of shaking things up for making the game more strategic. I suppose that's a win for the constantly-changing-arenas.

[chaos_redefined]

OK. We're good to go now.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

So I have to state a damage-number first everytime too?

[chaos_redefined]

hmm... up to DL. Not too sure how stall works for this. Good thing we test it now, I suppose.

[DarkestLight]

Ahh I see. Actually no. Stall only affects the battle component. The dice rolling would swap each round. So Chaos, you go first-then MLG would roll and attack, then Chaos would attack. Yeah.

[chaos_redefined]

I'm gonna go 10 again.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

I accept your damage. And I'm gonna dish out 20.

[chaos_redefined]

denied.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Confuse Ray, Skill Swap, Ancientpower!

If you get Taunted, sub your moves for Chargebeam, Secret Power, Ancient Power.

[chaos_redefined]

Skill... wha?! Gah!

OK. Quick substitute before he throws off the confuse ray. Then detect his skill swap and dodge it. Finally, flash. If detect failed, and the skills got swapped, instead, mimic his skill swap.

Nightstalker looks over to see that floating bell come back from its little dip in the water. Lucain looks troubled, and Nightstalker quickly grabs a swabber and a pail. He sets it up just as flashing lights strike the pail! Drat. Confuse Ray failed against the Substitute.

NS: -7E/-9H Sub: 9h ===///=== Luc: -3E

Not pleased, Lucian focuses on where the damn greebly beast is. It finds its quarry and tries to steal that ever annoying ability of its. Ready to evade, Nightstalker dives to the right and tries to shut off its mind, and watches as somethng shatters its Substitute into smithereens! THe debris flies everywhere.

Lucain however, was unable to successfully obtain the one thing it needed most-a jug of rum! I mean...the Skill.

NS: -7E Sub boom ===///=== Luc: -6E

Angry, Lucian now turns to pure wonton destruction, and begins flinging sea rocks all over my ship! Nightstalker manages off a nasty Flshing series of light that pain Lucain, but he gets bashed a few times. Well, something goes the bell's way, as a wash of power sweeps over Lucian.

Nightstalker however, knows his assailent is blinded...temporarily

[chaos_redefined]

Umm... DL... I said that if Detect fails, use mimic. Detect didn't fail, so I should have been using flash.

Edit: And not that it matters, but Lucian took 3 from the burn.

[DarkestLight]

Oh. No I'll fix that. Yeah but it does not affect the damage quotient :O. Burn counts in the damage allocation? I thought it was just the dice :O

[chaos_redefined]

All damage counts.

edit: Umm... I meant all damage counts to the total dealt. You said that Lucian took 0, and I pointed out it should be 3. You hadn't counted the burn anywhere.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

Was the sub-damage deducted?

10 damage.

[DarkestLight]

Yeah, Sub was 9 hp. 7 came from that other hit. That makes 16.

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

I deny your 10 damage.

I propose 20 damage.

Well it seems Lucain is in a bit of a rut in'nit? Doesn't matter, that cheeky little bugga over there seems to like tauntin' the big dumdum. Lucian seems pretty lucid about the whole thing, and flings a pile of cannonballs over and at that small...greebly thing..that I have an urge to shoot.

That seemed to hurt it..and the giant bell (lucky wtf..)...is looking a little shhhiny *_*

Righteously pissed, that bell goes over and decides knocking down my mast is the way to be. NO NO ITS NOT. Stop it! Desist! Stop I say! Bad Bell! That little purple devil laughs and runs over to punch it with a fist of fiery fury! That makes Lucian swing outward and Nightstalker laughs as Lucain 's aim is far off..

Continuing the battle, Night dives in for a Second punch! It connects, and Lucian whirls in place twice before landing on my ship and shiverin' me timbers--whatever that means. A massive ball of light appears and strikes Nightstalker, knocking him flat on his rump! Lucky bell.
