So, I know a lot of people here enjoy their IC fighting tournaments and stuff. I also happen to know that quite a few of us enjoy fighting games as well.
I forgot the exact particulars of how the concept arose, but somehow I got the idea in my head that it might be cool to do an IC fighting tournament, spaced out over the course of a few months or so, with fights in different locales around the world, and a plot straight out of Street Fighter. Before I went all the way with this, however, I wanted to see if anyone would actually be interested in this in the first place.
Without spoiling what I have for a plot so far, here's a few basic points that I would want to lay down for the sake of this (potential) event:
-- There will be no winner. The "final fight," should the plotline result in one, would be against the Big Bad of the setup.
-- There would be investigative elements, and fights are not set in stone. Players can bribe, throw, or otherwise disrupt the proceedings (as long as it's cleared with me first) in attempts to skew the plotline in one direction or another. Digging into background details and following up on leads is encouraged.
-- Since this would most likely be a large event divided into smaller scenes between individual people, there probably wouldn't be a 'master signup.' Instead, individual scenes would be coordinated between those involved for the sake of keeping things as confusion-free as possible.
-- A fighting system, if any, has not been decided upon at this time.
-- Alignments of all shades are welcome; those that enter to take advantage of whatever situations present themselves are just as welcome as the hero types that want to stop what's happening.
-- If you want to get involved in the plotline, but missed the "signup" portion of the tournament, it's entirely possible to get into things 'unofficially.'
If people would be interested in this sort of thing, I'll take further steps towards getting this in motion, which may involve reaching out to certain parties to see if they would be willing to take on certain roles. Those that serve a shadier side would most certainly be welcome / needed / appreciated, perhaps above all other roles, at this time.
So, I'm just putting this out there for now. If there's a reaction large enough to make this work, I'll make it happen.
