Oh, if "infiltrating lightly whipped and uncovering their secret battle plans" is the goal, just send them a group email and they'll blithely respond with all the info you need. In my experience, anyhow.

Wait, we can press buttons and somehow influence our fighters' builds? Holy crap, this changes everything  e: Wait, I'm still confused, I don't see where I get to change my fighter. I've always just used the arena site to put in a name, pressed the button, and then I'm done and wait for the results to roll in, are you all doing something different?  Like I thought maybe the "manage fighters" thing would help, am I doing this wrong?

I am going to give a suggestion which folks may not like: Since jon joe is taking over a fighter, how about the fighter's equipement and skills get reset to starting values, plus the participation bonuses gained so far? So that jon joe can design a build instead of making incredibly minor adjustements to an already existing one. edit: ^^^^ Uggghhhhh

Or maybe like do this but instead of doing this we do the thing that I am about to suggest, which is reset all the points but give the fighter to someone else, like maybe a newb who doesn't have a fighter yet I dunno I mean who even cares? Not me, that's for sure.

We've done mid-tournament takeovers for missing managers before; standard has always been "as is", just like any used-product salesman likes. This lets everyone else have some idea of what they're dealing with; it's arguably unfair to let someone throw in a cipher midway. Also I suspect it's easier on Jazzimus.

So thats not happening. Also, I vote against letting whoever rebuild their fighter because I specifically engineered my fighter to beat that one, whatever it is. My fighter is useless, except against that one fighter. A prophecy struck me saying that I would carry our team to victory in the finals if I did this. Turns out I was just hallucinating off of peyote. The point is no less valid for that, though. Spermy Smurf fucked around with this message at 03:13 on Feb 2, 2016 |

 Round 8, Fight 4 Team 13: Heavyweight Horrorshow is on the left side of the arena. Here comes Mongo! (Endorph) is a male troll. He is empty handed and wears a copper helm, leather armor, an iron mail shirt, a copper mail shirt, leather leggings, leather gauntlets, and leather low boots. ShortName (ZeeToo) is a male molemarian. He wields a copper spear and wears a bronze helm, a copper breast plate, bronze gauntlets, and bronze high boots. Face (Godna) is a male troll. He wields a copper two-handed sword and wears an iron breast plate, iron greaves, and silver high boots. Jakob (frankenfreak) is a male werewolf. He wields two copper mauls and wears a copper helm and leather armor. A Tarantino Film is on the right side of the arena. Uma Thurman (AnoHito) is a female human. She wields a steel two-handed sword and wears leather armor. Urist McLee (Fuubi) is a male dwarf. He is empty handed and wears a copper helm. Snarls Barkley (Bene Elim) is a female werewolf. She wields a bronze pike and a wooden shield and wears a bronze helm and bronze gauntlets. Solomon Rabinowitz (Added Space) is a male serpent man. He is empty handed and wears a steel helm, a steel mail shirt, steel gauntlets, and steel high boots.  A Tarantino Film is a 1.68 to 1 betting favorite in this match with 3395.00 dwarfbucks in total bets placed on them, compared to 2015.00 dwarfbucks for Team 13: Heavyweight Horrorshow.  ShortName lances his spear into Uma's leg, tearing the fat. I didn't realize Uma had an ounce of fat on her. She should probably do some squats or something. Anyway, it's first blood with the very first swing. Mongo follows that up with a gore that bruises Uma's ulna. Mongo grabs Uma by the throat, and then lets go to charge her for some reason. Uma is down, stunned for a moment but quickly rolls to her feet.  Solomon the snakeman retaliates by biting Jakob in the neck! His teeth are turned away by leather armor, lucky for the werewolf. Jakob's maul finally makes an appearance and blindsides Solomon . Solomon has steel mail on, so he only takes a bruise to the spine. Mongo bites Uma's sword-hand, tearing arteries and ligaments. Uma doesn't seem to mind and sends her sword into Mongo's thigh. Down goes Mongo! Snarls is not fixated on any one opponent, just swinging wildly at anything within range. It turns out to be a pretty good plan when his pike slashes ShortName across the gut, tearing muscle and opening arteries. Urist... Well, I haven't said anything about him yet because he's punching and causing minor bruises to skin.  The gladiators have all moved to 1v1 fights from what it looks like. The logs will prove me wrong I bet. Solomon decides charging the larger werewolf is a good idea. He falls to the floor stunned instead. Up top Mongo tries to climb on top of Uma, but that didn't work very well for Buck and it doesn't work here. She squirms away, standing over the downed troll and swings. The pommel of the sword sends troll teeth flying across the arena. Shortname and Snarls duel for a minute before Face the troll takes Snarl's attention. Snarls takes one of Shortname's feet off before turning to face the troll. Urist dodges away from... nothing? I don't even know. Mongo does the impossible. He grabs Uma's middle finger with his upper leg. Then he throws her with his left upper leg. Incredible thigh dexterity from the troll!  Uma lands with a thump and swings her deadly sword. Mongo's foot is now chopped to poo poo, and he passes out from pain. Urist McLee decides to join the fight and punches ShortName a few times. ShortName cannot land a blow against the dodgy little dwarf. Jakob is charging and stunning Solomon down bottom right, not letting the snakeman up for an instant. Solomons armor is protecting him very well, the copper maul is no match for the steel armor. Jakob finally finds a weak spot and crushes the snakemans forked tongue with his huge maul. Snarls Barkley finally lands a blow against Face's foot, and the huge troll falls to the floor. A second blow cracks a bone in his arm, and Face passes out. Uma removes Mongo's head with her next swing.  Jakob bites Solomon in the eye after charging and knocking him down a few more times. The eye spurts blood everywhere. Solomon Rabinowitz_TAR: Thosssse injuriessss... Thisss doesssn't ssscare me. Uma limps (with 2 gored limbs) to help Urist against the downed moleman ShortName. Shortname plants his spear in Uma's arm, forcing her to drop her sword. There are now 2 unarmed fighters trying to do more than bruise ShortName. Snarls Barkley splits Face's skull and turns to help against the moleman.  Jakob bruises Solomons spleen, and then bites off his fang. That's a ballsy move for sure. Remember to spit out the venom! ShortName puts his spear into Uma's foot, and the human passes out from pain, still enraged. The molemans spear somehow does not kill Uma when it's lodged in her skull a moment later. Jakob focus' on the only unarmored part of Solomon, and crushes his mouth. Snarls Barkley is really taking advantage of ShortName focusing on Uma. The werewolf shatters and removes two of the molemans legs in quick succession, sending him to the floor. Jakob slams his maul into Solomons chest, breaking ribs and knocking the snakeman to the floor despite the steel armor. Another swing with all of his might crushes Solomon's lower body and ends his life.  Jakob charges north to help Shortname who is feeling faint from blood loss. He arrives to a 4-way, the very bad kind. Snarls is slicing and dicing ShortName, while Urist latches on with his teeth. Jakob arrives on scene and slams his maul onto Uma's already-split-wide-open head, but fails to secure a kill. A second blow bruises the skull. A third blow fractures the skull...  Snarls takes ShortName's tongue out, and then Urist punches his hand so hard that it explodes. In the same instant ShortName bleeds to death, and Urist is awarded the kill. Urist the kill-stealing dwarf, somehow managed to do dick all fight, but gets a kill. Jakob does not get time for another blow to secure a second kill for himself. Snarls and Urist (mostly Snarls, lets be honest) turn their attention to him.  Urist McLee's foot is shattered by Jakobs maul, and the dwarf rolls away crying like a little bitch. Jakob smashes Snarls' ribs to bits, but at the same time Snarls fractures Jakob's foot and he falls to the floor.  Before Jakob can react, Snarls puts his pike into his leg and Jakob passes out from the pain. Snarls splits his head right down the middle moments later. Tarantino Film pull out a victory over their larger opponents. Kills: Uma Thurman: 1 Snarls Barkley: 2 Urist 'kill theif' McLee: 1 Jakob: 1 Combat Log

With that result, A Tarantino Film and the Heavyweight Horrorshow have drawn level on 14 kills apiece. Only Lightly Whipped, A Furry, Farmer and 2 Cows and This Bites have fewer.
