Fighting Game Logic: The Forum Game

Game Rules

• 1. A jab = One hit. A straight punch also equals one hit. However, a body blow can equal two hits in the same swing. An uppercut can go up to seven hits, four of them coming from the puncher's armpit.

1.5

Attacks increase your rage against god. Getting attacked will piss everyone off, and will increase their rage.

Eh, I'll bite.

2. Almost any attack, be it a punch, kick, or massive blast of soul-consuming light, can be blocked for only minor damage- So long as the defender hasn't blocked too many other attacks.

3. You can suspend a guy in midair just by punching his shit over and over. Any tap, even overhand, will do.

4. Getting your neck snapped is not a fatal wound, it's simply stings alot! Unless you are on your last legs after getting beat up alot.

4.5: Broke his leg? Eh, he'll walk it off. In fact, I think he'll kick you with that same leg, just to be a dick.

5: Fighting tournaments... the only place you'll see a buddist shaman fight a jailbait biker.

Or a bear.

6. A martial artist's defense consists primarily of two techniques: the "high" block and the "low" block.

• Most crouching attacks must be blocked low. Note that crouching down and throwing punches and kicks works better than one might anticipate.

• A jumping attack must be blocked high. So must a standing attack that moves in an arc that strikes overhead. We really don't know why.

7. Throws cannot be blocked. Also, being thrown about five feet and landing on your back hurts about as much as being punched hard enough to smash a brick wall, or being shot with an assault rifle.

8. No fair hitting somebody who has been knocked down... except maybe with one or two moves created specifically for that purpose, and even then, you're not allowed to abuse it.

9. If you're grabbed at any point without punching or shoving the attacker away, you're completely at his mercy.

9.5: You know... you didn't have to stop at the piledriver. Technically, he's still in your grasp.

6.5. A static stance will block anything, from jabs, to hooking punches and kicks to throwing knives to miniature tornadoes. All except grabs.

10. One pixel's worth of block damage will send your opponent flying and screaming into a coma... until the next round.

11. Killing the other guy is A-OK, so long as it's at the end of the fight and he got a fair shot.

12. Many, many, many people spend their entire lives fighting and training simply for the sake of doing so.

5.5: Apparently, you'll also fight ninjas and samurai. Sometimes even magicians. Fair fights are for pussies.

13. Ever notice how the Chinese love speaking Japanese and the Japanese love speaking English? Yeah, I don't get it either.

14. The windup hurts just as badly as the actual swing itself.

15. It's good sportsmanship to loudly call the name of your attacks as you perform them.

15.5: Even better. Ask them if they're alright prior to punching them the fuck out. That's right, I said beforehand, not after.

16. Hit by a ridiculously large gun larger then the holder? Meh, tis just a flesh wound

17. You don't stand a chance in the ring until you get a somewhat unique outfit and a character gimmick of some kind.

18. Why yes, it is perfecty acceptable to follow up a left body blow with a left straight you haven't taken up the stance for within a split second. Your body will shift by itself as soon as you will it.

1.8: It doesn't matter if it's a battle to death, in the event of a timer going off, that's the end of it.

19. There is always a bad guy even though it is simply a fighting tournament, out to take over the world by somehow suing said tournament.

20. A sword's hilt hurts just as badly as the hilt itself. A gunshot hurts only as much as the hand holding it.

21. It is possible for a normal human to dramatically change his or her velocity in midair, especially if he or she sticks one leg out for a kick.

22. Attacks that require you to spin will never get you dizzy and disoriented.

23. All martial arts teach Ki Attacks. All of them.

24. No seriously, how much did it cost you to install pyrotechnics in your lead hand?

25. How aren't your ginormous boobs hitting you in the face, especially with acrobatics like those?

26: It does not matter how sharp your blade is, your opponent will not receive any visible signs of being hit with a sharp blade or be cut into pieces even if your attack took away the last part of his/her health.

27. In most cases, your armor will not protect you.

28. It doesn't matter how many hits the person takes, they will be able to fight at their full ability, until their last bit of health is taken away, at which point they collapse.

• Corollary: When a tiny bit of their health bar is left, a simple tap can defeat them, even if they show no sign of wear beforehand.
