Trust me, no one here knows me. I'm completely new. I mean, yeah, I DID create this account a while ago and visited a couple times, but nothing to major! .....I hope. So, I plan on joining a serious of events where people write battles. The problem is NOT coming up with an idea of a fighter... It's having more than one and having trouble picking from them!!! So, I'm constructing a tourney for my characters and you guys decides who is recommended! I'm a noob writer who is probably going to lose a lot when I actually put my character against others, but hey, it's just for the fun of it!

Now, you wonderful readers, both the lurkers and the reviewers that will encourage me or destroy me and my story with harsh words will not being selecting Anything yet. This is because the first batch of chapters is merely character introductions. I'll let you know when the choices between fighters are made!

If I have a crap load of grammer issues, let me know of course! Just don't bite toooo hard..... please?

The winners gets these following awards!

Eliminated in the first round: An honor in my memory.
Runner up: Gets an ACTUAL original story on this site.
Champion: Becomes my wRHG character!

Also, can yall let me know how to add spoiler tags so this could look organized and not bunched up.

ALSO, is there a way to save my posts, but not actually post it so I can edit later and perfect my attempts of stories and what not? (I don't trust that auto save...)


EDIT: My heart skipped a beat when the site logged me out during my editing. What is the time you are allowed to be on a single page?

Not yet with the lack of options and all. I guess I should have mentioned when and when not to participate... I'll go edit and stuff.
EDIT: I got the spoiler tags downs! See, I'm getting used to this site!

What exactly are we supposed to do here? Am I supposed to give criticism about this Copper character or am I suppose to help you create a character?

What I'm doing is putting two of my created characters against each other. I have about eight characters in mind, so this can be quite a few battles.
I WOULD be done ep 2 by now (introducing the second character), but google docs is acting extremely nutty.
Anyway, I'm planning on letting you guys decide who should advance, just like a usual wRHG battle! :)

Well, the thing to be wary of with something like that is how easily- and rapidly it can devolve to a shrine to your ego.

You're not the only person with multiple character ideas. I've had at least 5 wRHG characters that I've done battle with the past, and more still that have yet to make the page- and I've been at this for four or five years now. I namedrop my old character Maxim for example- I'd be thrilled to hear that even Whitewood (who I ended up fighting) still remembers the character. This guy copper- I'm sure he's a great guy. But then you've got Steel_Cold. Then you've got Cobalt- even Chromium for a while there. Everyone's got their gladiator, and they're all metal in their own right.

So when one person walks in with five for example, after a while people stop caring. People stop voting. Because regardless of how good your character is... it's the story that's important. Because that's what we're supposed to keep reading. So before you post that first round, before you write that "ACTUAL" original story for the runner-up... a word of advice; make sure there's a story to be told here. I like wRHG profiles too, Bronze. I've read a lot of them- I've made a lot of them. But I've also read a lot of fights. I could go for a good story every once in a while, y'know?

That said, you could use a hand and I've got one to spare. I'll throw in the vote once you get me something to vote on.
