Dan Ball Arena

[kuraikiba]

Here is how it goes. Each member on the forum has stats. Those stats determine how well you can fight. You each start with a Iron Sword, and I'll explain later how to get new weapons. Here is how your stats are made:

Health: (Posts/2)
Mana: (PositiveKarma * 100) OR (NegativeKarma * -10)
Damage: (WeaponRank*1.5 WeaponDamage)

Hits are done in 3 second intervals. If you have the mana, and a spell, there is a (Karma * 0.25) or (NegativeKarma * -0.10) chance you will use that spell instead. The opponent has a (OpponentKarma-3, max = 99) chance of dodging a weapon hit or a spell. The amount of time you defeat your opponent in determines your gold you get. Gold = (TimeElapsed/0.05). To earn more gold, bet some of yours on a match.

All values are rounded up.

When you get a nice chunk of change, you can buy weapons, spells, and armor. They are better, and increase your success chances.

Don't worry, I'll noodle through the math. You just request a match, and I'll post the results.

Lastly, Mods get +50 Health and +100 Mana, and Admins get +500 health and a starting spell, Deathball. Deathball inflicts 75 damage.

For every 5 matches you win, you get (your DBs) gold as a stipend.

All this math may seem confusing, but I'll end up doing all the math. You just ask to schedule a fight, I run the math, award the victor, and repeat. For weapons and stuff, just PM me your list you request of me.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, hope the math doesn't make this look complicated. It's hard work for me, and posting for you, so I figure we should just see where this goes. Oh, and btw, you can assign a match with any opponent, at any time. I will run the math of the fight, and you will get the reward if you won. (Btw, since the gold doesn't translate to DBs, I can't profit, so I won't rig anything).

Oh I would probably state that Admins can only fight mods or higher. However, a user can challenge anyone, even admins.

Also, 3 matches can be ordered at once.

You get 0.05 gold for every health point your opponent has more than you

Have fun.

I want to fight majorlee 600 times.

[kuraikiba]

Let me post banks:

------------------------

Elmach: 65600g
IRFC: 240g
Veers: 70000g

------------------------

And inventories:

Elmach: Peyrite's skin

[Fringe Pioneer]

I would like to challenge all staff members listed here except for QwertyuiopThePie and xShadowLordx.

[kuraikiba]

Oh I hate big orders... It's 70000g you got. Spend wisely.

Here is the thing. I want activity, but I don't want to get bogged down with 10+ matches at a time. If anyone wishes to create a bot that could calculate all of this, I'd like that. Otherwise, please limit the orders to one person at a time, up to three fights.

[Qwerty]

Health: 4831
Mana: 9200
Damage: To be determined.

Hmm. I would appear to be quite powerful. I'll join in soon.

[kuraikiba]

Remember, mods or higher. We need to keep this fair. You're Nonja skills present a 89% chance of dodging, nearly a 25% chance of using a random spell, and you aren't easily killable. Unless your 11 percent comes as a fail, and the Hand of the mountain hits, your probably would kill anyone. Though, Memzak would eventually beat you.

[Elmach]

Erm...

What weapon rank is the Wraith Blade?

Oh, and Kuraikiba 1,000,000 times, IRFC 1,000 times, advenio 10 times, Akatsukifan 100 times, and Artifact123 1,000 times.

I bet all of my gold on each of my matches with Kurai, IRFC, and advenio.

Oh, and
Health: 446
Mana: 600

[kuraikiba]

Aww man. That does it... I'm reimplementing the 3 match rule.

Face it, I'm not a human calculator. In fact, even using a calculator, these are often 5+ minute sims. So, let me put this clearly. I need someone to program a bot to calculate the stats, and do the match. I might be able to whip something rudimentary up, but I need a person who knows their stuff to help make it better.

The Wraith blade is rank 7, the highest ranked weapon. Now, I'll need time to get things straightened out, but once I get a full ArenaCalc program up, I'll be able to take up to five matches while still keeping a short timeframe for calculation.
