Pavilion Tournament Battle

[Maijo]

IRC, any thoughts on bringing the old boy back or anything?

For those of you who don't remember, the pavilion tournament battle was a poll tournament similar to GameFAQs voting character battles featuring members here at the pav.

We had all the brackets set up and I think IRC had backstories and all the like but we ended up cancelling the thing before it barely got started.

Anyone remember this? Any thoughts on bringing her back?

Re: Pavilion Tournament Battle

I remember it. Thinking back, it was pretty lame.

Re: Pavilion Tournament Battle

Heh. It kind of creates a pecking order, which is just gonna be hurtful to some... but hey, at the same time, I think this would be awesomely fun to have.

Re: Pavilion Tournament Battle

I was thinking about doing something like this for RPGM3 for a while.

You could play as any of the regulars, and it was going to be a fighting tournament type of game, where the final boss was Valk, who you actually couldn't defeat, because he'd just use his powers of bannination to annihilate you.

Then I realized it was as potentially lame as doing a Pavilion spinoff of Fatal Insanity, and started working on something else.

I wouldn't mind being a contestant, I guess.

I was like "PEOPLE LIKE ME"

Re: Pavilion Tournament Battle

Didn't one person have a bunch of his friends register at the site just so they could vote for him?

Re: Pavilion Tournament Battle

That's pretty much it. I think I remember who it was but I don't want to say. Better to leave it in the past. I think the major problem with doing this is that you're always going to end up with the same group of five or six people making the finals unless you try to rig it so they square off against each other. You're not going to vote against Valk, Kire, Nixon, or Mora.

Now you could put them all in one group and have something like and all-stars bracket and a noob bracket, or you do the whole thing story oriented. Like a Pavilion Adventures hybrid.

I've had some thoughts on this when someone mentioned a game in the chat room the other day. Doing a Tactical rpg with various characters. But I don't know if RM3 would be best for this because the fun would be to have everyone involved have their own customized appearance. Like having Ryner appear as Dick Tracy Coconut instead of a Dwarf sprite named Ryner.

I wanted to do something special and secretive.

I tell you what, in the mean time anyone interested in being involved with something like this just post your character. Name, appearance, short backstory, that kind of stuff.
