Signors, welcome to the RPG Dueling League, an online community dedicated to pitting the fiercest, most PASSIONATE competitors from the RPG world against each other in a battle of fighting skill, and then democratically deciding who wins. I am your humble host, Morrie, and it is my pleasure to introduce you to the Arena, or as I like to call it, THE MONSTROUS PIT!!! The RPGDL is a site where anyone can vote on a series of matches between a host of different RPG characters every week. Each Season, match-ups are organized by random selection among the 4 different divisions: "Light", "Middle", "Heavy", and "Godlike". The winners of the initial match-ups are decided by which contestant receives the most votes, and then continue on to fight the other winners in a tournament setup until the end of a season, ending up with 4 champions, one from each division. The sixth week of a season features a team match where the Godlike champion and other three runner-ups face off against the Godlike runner-up and other three champions; as well as a chance for re-rankings among the divisions. Not that difficult, ay? So welcome to the RPGDL, signors, we hope you enjoy your stay! For a more in-depth summation of the features of the site, head over to the FAQ. For more information on the Rules, Chat, exciting additional tournaments, or stat topics, which detail information about all your favorite duelers, visit or join the Forum. Another week, another link you won't want to miss, signors! This week, the ranking process moves another step ahead with The Second Stage, where the details of who and what is getting ranked is hammered out. As always we would love to have your opinion on what(or what not) to rank, ay? On that note, the Monstrous Pit may have to let some characters go if they can't handle the fighting. In the Retirement Topic, signors such as yourself can decide whether or not to let certain games and characters go. Take a look if you're interested, ay? I hope to see you around again. The Monstrous Pit needs voters like YOU always, signors. Welcome to Behind the Scenes, celebrating over five days without a single workplace injury! And the fact that we haven't worked for six days has nothing to do with that, right? Bah, semantics. I'm Gilgamesh, along with Ultros, Morte, Odin, and the star of our show, Miss Chisato Madison. Good to see you all. On today's show, we'll talk with a poor reject of an internet meme, stare in shock and awe at Hrist in the semi-finals, and determine if when Jade fries his brain and his opponents simultaneously. So let's begin with Light... Hahaha! Finally, I've proven my might! And you're next, little lady! Little lady? So, Kahn... You're saying it wrong. What? I said, you're saying it wrong. I heard what you said. (He's getting too high and mighty for his own good.) (Ten GP says he's out cold in the next sixty seconds.) (You're on. It'll be at least ninety.) It's not that hard. Say it. KAAAAAAAHHHHHHNNNNN! Khan. No, KAAAAAAHHHH...eep. Chisato, was it really necessary to hit below the belt, literally? Yes. I win. No, he's still conscious. eeee... So, does anyone else want to question my pronunciation? Claude does! What? Oh, Claude darling... Whatever he says I did, I didn't do it, I swear! Hey look, there's a Shadow Hearts invasion, look! *cough*Whipped*cough*. Ugh, bad mental images. I don't think it's really much of an invasion. I mean, there's a kid, a near-mute, a psycho, and a cardinal. You mean the last two aren't synonymous? I take exception to that remark. Of course you would, heathen. I'm out of here. I know better than to get involved in theological disputes. It's liable to get you mazed, or worse - forced to listen to the hip-hop remix of the Hymn of the Fayth for three hours straight. Chicken. One does not anger a god without consequences. That would be likely true if it didn't come from you. I am the All-Father! And I'm the High Priest of the Church of Bolt-X! I'm not scared of you. I still think you should all worship me. Don't look at me, I'm agnostic. Do any of your churches offer polygamy? It wouldn't be fair to make him choose... You should all worship Lady Freya! Come on, worship me. I have a dental plan. All the mead you can drink! Three free murders a year with no retribution! Thor will sign your t-shirts. You guys have Thor? Why wasn't he in the game? We ran into some licensing issues with Marvel. Thor. Now that's a god I can admire. You've been awfully quiet, Claude. Doesn't your earth have religion? I belong to the Order of the Pleasedon'thurtmeChisato sect, Definitelynotintheface branch. And this is the hero of your world, Miss Madison? Pathetic. He just has a healthy respect for me when I'm in a position to do him serious harm, something that you obviously haven't learned. You can't hurt me like you did Kahn. ... Please tell me I didn't hear that right. I have a cup to protect me! Would it protect your face? Um, no? That would be your cue to run. Are any of us going to be interviewed at all? No. Good. Barbecue at my place in three hours. Chisato, please don't bring one of the guests strung up like a pig like you did last time. And on that high note, that's all from us for this week. Stay tuned for a special presentation of "Firecrackers: Harmless Fun or Deadly Weapon"... I'll give you a hint - it's the second one. ...and come back next week for the Finals. Later.
