Match of the Millennium

\***>>BONUS ROUND!<<***/ LYRAELLE: "Presented by your guest host, Princess Leia-raelle! You heard right..." Removing the t-shirt with her own face on it that she was wearing and standing up from behind the commentary desk, Lyraelle is revealed to be wearing a recreation of the dancing outfit famously worn by Princess Leia after her capture by Jabba the Hutt in Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi. ==*== MAY THE FOURTH BE WITH YOU ==*== LYRAELLE: "May the Fourth is coming soon, and that means it's time for the return of Star Wars! Thanks to yours truly, the settings used for Midnight Channel and Saturday Night Fights in 2021 have been faithfully restored for these bonus round battles in our FIGHTFEST STAR WARS WORLD exhibition! The fighters will be tested in triple threat matches, wearing their choice out of our expansive collection of customizable Star Wars costumes as they compete across the Star Wars universe." TOM: "Looks like I get to be that one X-Wing pilot with the moustache." LOU: "And I'm the other X-Wing pilot with the offensive name." LYRAELLE: "The prospects will have their own choice here, so I'm interested in seeing who they decide to dress up as." LOU: "They even get to pick their own stages, don't they?" LYRAELLE: "That's right! We might even see some stages that haven't been used before!" OOC: Competitors are expected to dress up as any of the characters from Star Wars universe, so be sure to mention (or describe!) who (or what) you're competing as. All STARWARS stages are available until the end of this event and can be found using 'stage/list starwars'. Competitors should agree amongst themselves which stage they'd like to use. If there's a particular stage from STAR WARS that you'd like to use and does not currently exist, feel free to submit it yourself; if you do, be sure to contact PRINGER X for stage approval. The winner of each match will receive an NFG Point. If anyone not participating in the tournament wants to have a Star Wars themed exhibition match as part of Fightfest, now is your opportunity! (Continued in next post!)

TOM: "So, what are the matchups we're looking at?" LYRAELLE: "Well, we want to give each of our prospects a chance to face people they haven't already scened with." LOU: "Scened with?" LYRAELLE: "Sorry, roleplay-speak. I meant fought with." LOU: "Ahh, into a bit of roleplay, are you?" LYRAELLE: "Come the heck on. We're almost done here and I've been talking so long my lips hurt. The time for cheap smut jokes is long past." TOM: "Actually, Lou's granddaughter is really into roleplaying games. Lou's been playing Quest World Online with her." LOU: "While all of that is true, as we established last week, I was just implying she was kinky." TOM: "Fair enough, Lou." LYRAELLE: "-Anyway,- here's the matchups." ==ICHIKA versus COCO versus KENZO== ==AYALA versus JOHN DOE versus GENIE== ==SARAH versus BUFORD versus CHEVY== ==AMBER versus BRIAN versus ISAMU== LYRAELLE: "And that's all from me for now, minions! Mwah!" TOM: "And that's all from me too, folks! Mwah!" LOU: "Whoa, really? Well, I guess I might as well join in too. Mwah!" (Continued in next post!)

Thanks and well done for getting your matches finished in a timely fashion so far, doodz! In light of the extra scheduling trickiness that can sometimes result from three-way matches, this round (and bonus round) will be given an extended deadline ending on EOD SUNDAY, MAY 14TH. Sponsors should expect to receive a @mail soon including additional information I'd like to get back by next round. If you haven't signed up to be a sponsor but would like to now, go ahead and sign up before EOD tomorrow, MONDAY, MAY 1ST, after which point the +signup will be closing and any requests to participate will need to be sent directly to me. As always, if you finish your matches early, feel free to participate in social scenes which may or may not be set in the FIGHTFEST STAR WARS WORLD exhibition. May the 4th be with you, doodz! - Pringer X
