SNF 2005.08 - Aug-2005 Summary

Description: [OOC] All the bulletin board posts from the August 2005 Saturday Night Fights.


==============================================================================
SNF Matches: 8-5-2005 -- Fri Aug 5 2005 -- Geese
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Match 1: Dong Hwan, Duck, Leona, Katana - 4-Way FFA - 10 AM -

Match 2: Alma, Gabriel, Johnny - 3-Way FFA - 1:30 PM -

Match 3: Megumi & Shingo vs. Sakura & Karin - 2v2 Simultaneous - 3 PM -

Match 4: Cammy vs. Kula - 1v1 Standard - 4 PM -

Main Event: Terry vs. Kain - 1v1 Title Match - 7 PM - Howard Aren

Notes: I've decided to begin creating championships within SNF. Please bear with me as I define divisions and such. For now, I will be limiting a title division to just R4, 5, and 6, but will be thinking about how each division should be defined as I go. I've booked these FFAs for a reason, though I know this is wishful thinking. If you guys can't get this schedule to work out, tell me so I can re-book.

I'm a little busy, so pick your own locations, aside from the Main Event which needs to be done in Howard Arena.

Other than this, no special rules.

==============================================================================
Match 1 Revision -- Sat Aug 6 2005 -- Geese
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Duck has provided word to me that he cannot attend Match 1. For reference, this match will continue as booked, just without his involvement. That is, Match 1 should now read as: "Dong Hwan, Leona, Katana - 3-Way FFA - 10 AM"

However, let me be more specific on something: Telling me is GOOD. Telling me without telling your opponents is not as good. Please tell EVERYONE involved; the @mail I got was only addressed to me, and news of the withdrawal seemed to surprise those who were also in the match.

So please, make sure everyone gets the @mail.

SNF Results: 8-5-2005 -- Sat Aug 6 2005 -- Geese
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Match 1: Did Not Happen (Scheduling pulls a Hindenburg)

Match 2: Alma, Gabriel, Johnny - 3-Way FFA - Winner: Gabriel ($2,000)

Match 3: Megumi & Shingo vs. Sakura & Karin - 2v2 Simultaneous - Winner: Shingo & Megumi ($4,750)

Match 4: Cammy vs. Kula - 1v1 Standard - Winner: Cammy ($5,350)

Match 5: Jae Hoon vs. MayLee - 1v1 Standard - Winner: Jae Hoon ($3,550)

Main Event: Terry vs. Kain - 1v1 Title Match - Winner: Kain (See Notes)

Notes, PLEASE READ - IMPORTANT: Match 1 was apparently a hideous failure of conflicting schedules and did not happen. Most people did provide notice though, so I'm not angry over this at all. I do appreciate that most of you -- but not all of you; I'm not naming names but you know who you are -- people did provide me notice.

Maylee vs. Jaehoon was not posted in the original listings, but this is because they both got their characters too late to sign up normally. Given their circumstance, I was perfectly inclined to let them get a match.

Some of you have asked me what needs to be done on reporting SNF matches, and autologs of those matches. The answer is this: @mail me, AND the publisher of the log needs to @mail KOBUN (not me) when it's up. The reason: I do not act in any staff capacity. Therefore I do not have access to any form of autolog administrative functions. Telling me who won lets me make the results posts. Telling Kobun lets Kobun move the logs to the relevant category. Therefore, you need to tell both of us -- we handle seperate aspects of this.

Kain vs. Terry also happened last week. I have received complaints about this being booked twice. Please note I book based on what I have to work with, and had no other easily balanced matches for these two. I try to give variety where I can, however. Kain is the High Level champion of SNF with this win. He receives $9,000 and is now a title-holder. Kain will be expected to defend this title once I have iron rules for how the championships will work. For now Kain, don't worry too much about this; I need to finish designing a few things before I start scheduling Title Defense matches.

I will be out of town most of this week. This means I am not available to run SNF this week. Signups are cleared, but unless a staffer explicitly states there will be a staff-run SNF this week, the event is not going to be run. Again, no SNF this go around unless staff says they'll do it.

==============================================================================
SNF Signups open -- Tue Aug 9 2005 -- Kobun

In reference to the last post, staff says there's an Saturday Night Fight this week. Signups close at 9pm EST, Friday. These fights will, as the name implies, take place on Saturday, so if you don't plan on being here Saturday, please don't sign up. Thanks.

The Main Event will have Terry facing off against two members of the New Hero Team - again, their choice.

Special Rules and Notes: Rolento's scenes overlap with SNF happening. Rolento and I talked, and our decision as as follows: Rolento's scenes for the Metro plot are /OOCly/ happening on Saturday, ICly on other days. Nonetheless, this does affect several of you who I believe are in the Metro plot just due to OOC schedule overlap. As a result, the deadline for doing your matches has been extended. See below for details.

In Match 5: LEONA TAKE NOTE -- Leona is not permitted to take First Action in this match; someone else must go first unless both Karin and Ibuki feel it is in their best interest to let Leona take the First Action. Of course, Leona make take a Final Action in the event she is KOed. Beyond that, anything goes in this match.

As I see new players on the matches, I'll say this: The times listed above are IC times. You may finish the matches whenever you like on Saturday, just be sure the winner @mails me. As the autologger is currently on moratorium, I do not know what is to be done about that. I will probably forward the results to Kobun to be reflected in Bio.

Since there are so many people affected by Metro + SNF overlap, the deadline for finishing SNF matches is SUNDAY, by Midnight EST. Results will be posted on Monday.

SNF Results: 8-27-2005 -- Mon Aug 29 2005 -- Geese
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Match 1: Duolon vs. Ralf - 1v1 Standard - Did Not Happen (See Notes)

Match 2: Megumi vs. Deejay - 1v1 Standard - Winner: Megumi

Match 3: Daigo vs. Benimaru - 1v1 Standard - Winner: Daigo

Match 4: Dong Hwan vs. Natsu with Momo as Chaos Agent - 1v1 Chaos Agent - Winner: Disqualification (See Notes)

Match 5: Leona vs. Ibuki vs. Karin - 3-Way FFA - Winner: Special, See Notes

Match 6: Tiffany vs. Eagle - 1v1 Standard - Winner: Tiffany

Main Event: Cammy vs. Kula - 1v1 Standard - Winner: Kula

Notes: Duolon vs. Ralf, I have no idea on. It's Monday night...Tuesday morning, actually, and I do not have any information on what happened. No @mail, nothing. I'm awarding a Disqualification Loss to both of you for not making any attempt to @mail me about this. Even if you only @mail me to say you have no idea what's up with your opponent's schedule, tell me; I do try to remedy issues like this when I can.

Dong Hwan and Natsu KOed Momo, then walked off and declared their match a Draw. Well, they can call it a Draw but that's not what's going to actually be recorded. Taking out the Agent and then not finishing the actual match is ruled a Disqualification to both sides. Natsu receives $0, a Disqualification Loss, and a warning not to do that again. Dong Hwan, who has some history of such behavior, is given $0, a Disqualification Loss, a warning, and notice that Geese Howard Is Not Amused and is thinking about how best to 'correct' his tendencies. Momo receives $750 for her services.

Leona vs. Ibuki vs. Karin did not happen as scheduled, as one of the participants (Karin) bowed out due to RL schedule constraints. This match became Leona vs. Ibuki, which Leona won and that doesn't surprise me in the slightest - she receives $3,550.

As a reminder, @mail (if you're not using the editor for it) is @mail recipient=subject/body. All too often I get @mails where the subject and body are identical. Thankfully @mail crops out your Subject when it gets too long, but still. Please try to keep this in mind. The syntax is Recipient=subject/body.

Signups have been cleared. Feel free to enlist for the next SNF.

Update on 8-27-2005 -- Tue Aug 30 2005 -- Geese
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Part of me wants to just say "Too bad, still a Forfeit - Did Not Happen", but after my post, I wake up to find notice from Ralf about the fight happening. So just for the sake of being complete, Fight 1 is re-labeled "Winner: Ralf".

Next time this happens, I'll probably give the 'winner' a forfeit loss anyway. It's the winner's responsibility to @mail me the result.
