Gladiator Championships [Now Reopened-OoC]

[Quiahuitlpan]

International Gladiator Curcuit

Foreword:
To the blood thirsty nations of the world after years of Gladiator tournaments within our Confederacy we have decided to extend the scope of our noble competition. Large arenas of stone, long used to please the gods, have been refurbished and readied to accept the brave warriors of multiple nations. Sign-up, send your noble warriors forth to fight in the rings of stone, fight for glory and fight to the death. Spots are open for many brave warriors, the single champions of each nation will fight together for glory and monetary gain. To the winner goes glory and a name that will last the ages, as well as one and a half million USD in prize money to the victor. Will your brave competitor be the last standing?

Participants:
Cipactli, Son of Camulatz
Станіслав Кирилович Стребко (Stanislav Strebko)
John
Subject H3-77

Warrior Name: Cipactli, Son of Camulatz
Home Nation: The Confederacy of Quiahuitlpan
Weaponry: Traditional Macuahuitl
Armor: Traditional Quilted Cotton Ichcahuipilli with Inlaid Copper Plates.
Training and Experience: Training in traditional Quiahuitlpan fighting arts as well as some minor priestly training.
Bio: Cipactli is the third son of Camulatz a respected priest king who holds a large estate, as the third son of such a high ranking noble he had many choices, mainly choosing serve in the Quiahuitl Army as an officer or train to be a high priest within the capital. After serving in the army for three years he resigned and took up a career as a gladiator on the professional Quiahuitl circuit, having won many tournaments he was a natural choice to represent the nation in its first international competition.

Notes:
The weaponry is limited to close quarters weaponry, no firearms will be tolerated.
This is an MT RP, taking place in the present day.

Scorinator
Since I lack knowledge of both coding and excel the scorinator is made on 001 Engine. It randomly chooses a victor and the level of victory achieved. As this is the first Gladiator Championship the engine is quite simple, due to its simplicity there is equal chance for each player to win a match, regardless of equipment and training. The three victory types are as follows:
1, Easy Victory, the winning player is able easily able to dispatch his opponent with little effort.
2, Standard Victory, the two players are easily matched and the winner is only just able to overcome the loser.
3, Epic Victory, the the winning player spends the entire match being dominated by their opponent. Being able to make either a lucky blow or a heroic comeback.
Note there is now an RP bonus, if you have RPed before a match you increase your chances of winning the next one.

While it doesn't need to be a special excel type scorinator, it dose have to have a system that uses RP bonus.

I did read that before I posted, I can't, nor did I, see anything in that guide that says it needs an RP bonus aspect.

No, it doesn't. RP bonuses are a convention, not a requirement. Please refrain from making incorrect statements in sign-up threads.

Quiahuitlpan is perfectly free to run the competition as he sees fit. If other nations prefer to see some form of RP bonus, they are likewise free to say so. But RP bonuses are certainly not a requirement of participation in NS Sport.

As to Dargokia I'm sorry but I must enforce a minimum level of seriousness in this tournament. Feel free to re-write and re-apply but for now your application is sub-par.

Also a note to all, I have managed to rig a basic RP bonus to the scorinator so there is now an RP bonus.

[Dargokia]

Dear The Confederacy of Quiahuitlpan,

I understand that you are looking for more seriousness than I put forth but to call my entry sub-par is just insulting.His Most Fighting Guy Geroska Quinlion III aka The Most Holy Champion of Dargokia feels that an insult to his entry is an insult to him and is now not willing to participate in the proposed event.He feels that you are not worthy to witness the finesse and skill that he is capable of with his mop.To be completely honest he was not expecting to much of a challenge anyway.I think he may even sulk a bit.Now that I have been made aware of your nations existence you can be expecting missionaries in your land to spread the word of the Great and Benevolent Dar soon.Have a nice day.

Yours in the Holy Fires of Dar,
His Most Holy Guy Dargok the Strange

Bio: Olrik grew up in a family of fitness and health counsellors. Since he enjoyed competition and had a disdain for book knowledge, he got a determination to become a professional athlete early in his life. His involvement in the martial arts was more of a necessity than his wish (the region suffered quiet a bit from turf wars between gangs at the time). Only after it became evident that his technique and learning curve would be unsufficient to pursue a career in the athletics, he focussed on perfecting his martial defense techniques. His involvement in the Civil Defense Squad was planned from the beginning to bridge the time until he would be old enough to become a licensed Martial Arts trainer himself. Currently, Olrik is trying to establish is school in Southhaven and looking for new challenges. The Gladiator Championship might serve either goal.
Privately, Olrik is engaged to former Civil Defense colleague and current student Kristen Grivaszdiladze. His former registered engagement to veterinarian Sandrin Erlegaard has been revoked. Olrik has no children or wards.
