The SAM (Shinobi's Against Monsters) Tournament is a thing I made up so that I could run a really big RP for you guys. Maybe you'll make new friends, maybe you'll earn fabulous prizes, but I promise you'll have fun!
This tournament is PURELY FUN, made to help us enjoy RPing with each other and by no means should result in heated arguments or angry participants (unless you're just angry to be angry in which case you're gonna get kicked out).
To prevent unnecessary forum posts I've selected 6 judges, all of whom I respect and trust, though I've chosen to keep them anonymous from the participants and each other. So if there is an issue that requires judging, I will bring it to my judges individually and as quickly as possible, and have them give their opinion on the problem. If there is a tie I will be the breaker. Once all the opinions have been collected by me I will present them to the participants. I ask that you do not try and argue the final verdict once it has been presented, and will remove anyone who continuously questions the rulings not because I'm some overbearing power-hungry maniac, but because I'm not putting as much work as this will require into a tournament only to have you incessantly bitch and moan about it. So if you do I'll have no problem removing you.
The event will be styled like a tournament, sorta. Everyone will start with a match that is them alone versus one monster.
IF YOU WIN, you will advance to fight alongside another shinobi who won their first match against two monsters. So on and so forth until everyone who survives is pitted against one final boss.
IF YOU LOSE then you suck and will be removed from the tournament obviously. More importantly, say you lose in round one, whoever you were supposed to fight alongside will now have to fight two monsters alone. Basically if you die it makes it harder for everyone else eventually.
The first few rounds will be pretty easy, depending on the final number of participants. Each fight will actually be scaled to your characters power level, so to answer your question Kage, you are more than welcome to join even as a Susanoo user. The best part about "monsters" is I can make up whatever I want to fight you guys, so all your OP powers are gonna actually be 100% necessary by the time you get to the third of fourth round, depending.
Once 4 or more people are fighting together, I'm gonna make it EXTREMELY hard to beat these monsters so you guys are forced to work as a team. These things are going to be insanely overpowered, so just keep that in mind. However, ideally, we'll have a good enough variety of characters, godlike or otherwise, so that weaker characters can still fight insanely powerful monsters, just as long as they have someone like Kage on their team.
I have about 20 RP items I never ended up using, so I plan to give them away as prizes. But since some of you won't want my petty toys I am trying to find something that will satisfy ya'll OP ninjas. So please feel free to shoot me ideas for that. DP has also been considered but I think it's kinda worthless. But I could be wrong.
The point is fun, so ideally there won't be any sass from anyone. (i'm looking at you, EVERYBODY.)
I know there's more stuff I need to cover, so if I missed something please feel free to ask me about it.
