Those totals on the first page are very misleading. I doubt anybody has quite as much as it says there considering most of us have spent some on fights, or lent some to other players.

Anyway, here are the activity levels for all alive parties:
Name Total Posts/Last 3 days
johnhughthom 25 / 2
centurion1 24 / 5
cdf 45/ 1
khazaar 10 / 1
choxorn 35 / 4
Seon 13/2
Yaro 36 / 3
Choxorn and Yaro are pretty much clear.
Seon and Khazaar have been most inactive and likely to miss orders. However I can confirm Khazaar was in PM contact with me and Choxorn last night campaigning for mana donations so he wouldn't have missed an order last night.
This leaves JH, Cent, CDF, Seon
Right now my suspicions are on Seon / CDF.
I was lurking :p
Well I agree about Seon. Maybe Centurion is a bad pick, but maybe he can get enough mana or whatever to take Seon down.
Are they?Quote:

Yes - I'm in pretty much every writeup trying to figure out who is trying to sabotage MY tournament. Raiden was written up here as innocent in the writeup:Quote:

Question for host
1) Can we have extra time to vote since forums went belly up yesterday
2) Can we vote for Jax or Kintaro to participate in the next fight even though they are already fighting tonight? What happens if the person we nominate gets killed in teh first fight?
I feel unloved :,(
I agree with Yaro, we need more time and also the features still haven't all been fixed yet.
Since nobody has bet, 50 mana on Kintaro.
Just manaaged to log in now. Yes there will be and extension of 24hrs.Quote:

The Winner of the Seon and Jax fight will have a 24hr stand down peiod in which they can not be voted back into the Arena. This means you can not vote for them now either.
As I said, CDF is my most suspicious candidate at the moment after Seon. Khazaar/Choxorn are more or less cleared. I'd like to take out CDF, so we're down to 2 unconfirmed people next battle. Yaropolk vs CDF
I've thought him to be a mark for a while as well. Shao Khan vs. Reptile. Show him the meaning of the word FATALITY!
when I die I want everyones assurance they will kill Yaro. It is increasingly blantant that he is mark......Quote:

(Also, I plan on doing my best to kill you BTW. Hopefully over your rotted corpse I will win my innocence. )
so reptile which would you rather kill. as your charismatic, kind, and devilishly handsome team leader im giving YOU the choice. :wink:

Midday 4
Kung Lao made another appearance; he decended from the skys where he had been giving the other gods a lesson on how to pronounce and spell his name. However as important as that was he didn’t didn’t want to miss Kintaro and Jax being lead into isolation. Both Jax and Kintaro gave Kung Lao long cold stares as they were lead away by the tournament officials. Kung Lao was ecstatic with the looks as they were just what he was hoping for. With the combats in isolation Kung Lao took his leave once again.

Mortal Kombat
Evening 4
Now it was a fight between the victorious, all remaining contestants had fought and won a battle. This time though there would be no holding back. Kintaro once again choose the arena and selected the stadium and to fight in front of Shao Kahn’s throne. Shoa Kahn Sat there with a cruel smile and Bellowed out “Fight”
Kintaro jumped straight into the air and landed right on top of Jax, crushing him.
Kintaro put up his arms in victory but Jax surprisingly got up and yelled out “I am not done yet!” Jax slammed the ground with huge force that usually enough to knock down most persons. However Kintaro was no normal person and laughed as he shrugged off the attack.Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Kintaro walked up to Jax and flailed away at him with his four arms. Jax tried to block but one arm slipped through and caught him in the chin sending him skywards.Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Kintaro once again raised his fists in victory. He leaned back and let out a roar. During this Jax leapt to his feet and launched a powerful attack which actually lifted Kintaro off the ground.Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
He followed up by sending a blinding flash of energy into Kintaro which connected with the falling Kintaro.Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Then it was Jax’s turn to be brutal. He lifted Kintaro off the ground “Gotcha” he cried and then proceeded to pound away at Kintaro’s face.Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
There was almost nothing left of Kintaro’s head but a bloody pulp. Jax dropped Kintaro to the ground and threw his hands up and celebrated the win.Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Howerver Shoa Kahn Noticed something strange. He heard a familiar sound echo as a medallion slipped off Kintaro’s neck and bounced on the cobbled floor. Kahn left his sent and picked up the medallion. It was the same as the demon looking medallion that Scorpion carried.Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
The air seemed to exploded and the ground shook, a great big crack appeared in the ground which spew out hot larva. But that was not all, a demon started to crawl out of the hole. He seemed to be even bigger the Shao Kahn, and had everyone cowing in fear. The demon spoke “You may have stopped me this time but this realm will be mine!” Everyone seemed to tremble except Kahn, he had his own devilish smile on his face. He stood right in front of the deman and spoke surprising softly. “You have no power here demon, this is not your realm, it is mine!” And with those last words Kahn grabbed the demon by the head and crushed its skull. The demon exploded into locust which then flew away.
Kintaro was a Mark!
Jax Wins and received 225 Mana as battle spoils. Shao Kahn Receives also receives 225 Mana.
Kahn looked around at the remaining fighters. “Look at you cowing in fear, the only thing you should be afraid of is ME! And the one who should be most afraid is Reptile.”
Shao Kahn Vs Reptile will be the morning fight.

Contestants may place bets on the upcoming fight between Shoa Kahn and Reptile.
Thats right, WHAT NOW!
oooooooo-rahhhhhhh
Drow Brigade gonna kick some ***
you guys so worried about marks why dont you hit some teams that havent had their mark killed off. and so obviously kick butt
thanks for your help yaro..... oh wait didnt need it.
how you like me now seon.
further note after looking at the teams i think khazzar and choxorn are marks. khazzar has been inactive sort of and is stockpiling mana. which is very very dangerous. as well choxorn basically follows yaro's lead scummy if anything.
I believe choxorn is innocent based on this post by the host:
https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showt...=1#post2414645
I have my doubts about khazaar...
Excellent work, Centurion.Quote:

Hah, I say. The activity level here is low all around. I have fought and deafeated a mark to be sure, I also secured support unlike all marks so far. You should not forget that there is also the mission "last team standing". I highly doubt there is more than one mark left which means defeating the other teams becomes a high priority. But maybe you already knew that and are starting to look for potential allies. I tell you I´m willing to fight anyone who slanders my name.
Bring it on!
How mark-tastic.
:bounce:
Don't give any mana to yaro, he will only use it to kill me, an innocent townie :brood:
yeah not fair no mana to yaro. ill give mana next phase though if hes not fighting my boy.
ATPG haunts me from beyond the Grave. Is there no rest for the Wicked?Quote:

If Choxorn and I have to pool together to take you out, so be it, but you're going down.
Khazzar is scum i say. Let us destroy him next and then let it be a wild melee. Unfortunately Yaro you are going to do this next phase so bummer but don't we will still get him for you.
This is getting serious, I don´t mind beeing called Mafia or scum or whatever but i can´t abide beeing insulted because of Debts. I have told Sprig to transferr the leased Mana back as soon as he confirmed that I have enough to pay you back. I hate having debts and I am angry that I even asked for support. If you doubt my words I will step out of this game instantly!
Come on Khazaar, it isn't intended to be personal it's part of the game.
Uhhh... Khazaar? Could you just wait for about 15 hours to do that?
K' thanx
:sweatdrop: Please?
dont worry reptile weve uh got it in the bag i guess you could say............

Please note, that I can only transfer mana during updates. if there is an error with order and it needs to be reconfirmed it can delay when you receive the mana.
I am sure your husband was pleased with your duties. :yes:Quote:

I was actually thinking you should bet on me. When I crush CDF like Russian hero Ivan Drago crushed weak American Appollo Creed, you will have more mana to keep from dying so fast.

Wait until you get a chance to take the shots.
I'd settle for a crudely drawn MS Paint picture of the battle!
No, like this:

Mortal Kombat
Morning 5
The morning arrived and the contestants got ready for battle. Not that Kahn had to get ready for battle since he slept in his battle uniform. Sure the spike dug into the bed and made it incredibly uncomfortable but that is what makes him the mighty immortal man he is today. But it was all worth it for the chance to beat up a few ninja and take over the Earth Realm.
Lucky for him his opponent this round was a ninja. Reptile looked uncomfortable, nobody blamed him for he didn’t have the easiest of opponents. Kahn stood there glaring at Reptile “I’ll let you take the first shot” he declared. Reptile inched closer cautiously when Kahn say “Hurry up!” Reptile took a bigger step but Kahn’s speed surprised him and Kahn’s boot caught Reptile in his midriff.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Reptile flew backwards but quickly jumped to his feet. He jumped towards Kahn extending a kick out which Kahn easily blocked. Kahn counterattacked with a kick of his own but Reptile ducked under it and then launched an uppercut which connected with Kahn’s chin.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Reptile had little time to think. He quickly threw down a smoke bomb and turned himself invisible. Kahn got back to his feet with his eyes darting around looking for his target. Reptile saw his opportunity and spat out a glob of acid at Kahn.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Kahn easily blocked the expected attack and charged forward in the direction from where the acid came. Reptile shed his invisibility which surprised Kahn and allowed Reptile to connect with a sweetly timed Roundhouse Kick.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Kahn just stood up after the kick. He looked completely uninjured as he smiled an evil grin. “You will die” taunted Kahn. Before Reptile knew it, Kahn was breathing on him and clocked him with a strong left hand.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Reptile was dazed; the power of Kahn’s attack seemed to send electricity throughout his body. Reptile could hardly react, Kahn’s speed seemed to increase even more. The next thing he knew was that he was flying through the air once more.
Reptile’s body seemed to land with an air of finality about it. Reptile groaned, and tried to get up and slumped back down and was still. Kahn didn’t care if Reptile was still alive or not. He grabbed reptile by the leg and singing him into the air and then bringing him down into the ground with heavy crash. Kahn stood over the now extremely dead body of Reptile. “You weak pathetic fool” Kahn cried out loud.Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

Shao Kahn Wins and received 519 Mana as battle spoils. Jax also receives 519 Mana.

Contestants may vote for tomorrow mornings battle.
They may also place bets on the evening battle.
The updates schedule will change slightly. Midday will be in 22hrs with the evening battle falling around 10 hours after that.
what the heck this is ridiculous. Raiden is a mark obviously he has like 10000 mana now i have like 500
Yes, I'm a mark, I voted myself into the arena. Twice. :rolleyes:
And I have less mana than everyone but Mileena, what do you mean "10000 mana"?
Choxorn and Khazaar are both Marks.
Oi - get voting....
I will challenge Shang Tsung I think its a fair matchup given people's mana totals.
Shao Kahn Vs Shang Tsung is fine by me.
Yaro, can I have an answer to my PM?
And Shao Khan vs. Shang Tsung is fine. Now will people please bet?
Is it just me or have the Marks kind of sucked in battle so far?
You'd have thought they'd have done better as they would have gotten help from eachother and their teammates.

Evening 5
For the fifth time of the tournament the sun set which signalled the start of the next battle. Jax was visibly tired for this was his third fight, Jax raised up his fists in preparation, he still wanted to win. Shao Kahn looked at the combatants “Fight” he declared.
Raiden came literally flying at Jax and caught him off guard. Jax was not prepared for that speed.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
The blow sent Jax backwards but before he had even touched the ground, Raiden was in the air preparing to launch an aerial assault.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
The blow connected with Jax right in the chest and Jax was off his feet once more. Raiden landed softly and started to charge his fingers with electricity. He watched Jax pick himself up and then Raiden closed in for the final blow.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
But Raiden had made the same mistake as the past two combatants that fought Jax. He got too close. Electrically charged fists or not, Jax grappled Raiden and slammed him into the ground. But Jax did not let go. He picked Raiden off the ground and slammed him into the ground a few more times.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Raiden tried the aerial route once more. He flipped over towards Jax getting ready to strike out with his leg. But Jax move in closing the gap which Raiden misjudged. It was a simple procedure for Jax to assist Raiden through the air and to allow Raiden to land comfortable as possible while placing his shoulder into the small of Raiden’s back.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
When Raiden got up he was clutching his back in pain. He then teleported away to keep some distance between him and his opponent. Raiden released the energy that he had built up in his hands sent a lightning bolt at Jax which he narrowly avoided doing a Neo impersonation.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
As stylish as it was it, it gave a chance for Raiden to teleport in close to release his final attack. He grabbed Jax and started to send electricity through his body.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Raiden kept it up and pumped more and more electricity into Jax, so much thatsmoke started to come out of Jax’s body as he was burnt alive from the inside. Eventually there was so much energy that Jax exploded into little hunks of flesh, bones and guts.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Raiden Wins and received 925 Mana as battle spoils.
Kahn Looked like pleased at the result. He looked around and saw Shang Tsung. He stood up and stood infront of him “Now I am Ready to fight you. There will be no getting out of it this time.”
Shao Kahn vs Shang Tsung
Will be the morning fight.

Congrats Raiden! Whoever the last mark is, well played sir, well played!
The marks are Raiden and Shang Tsung. I already said for since my death, basically.
Beskar, there's only one left.
I thought there were two?
I accuse Shang Tsung then for stabbing me in the back when we were on the same team.
my team was targeted like anything........
sprig did you use my orders?
that i did - i can send you the battle result (workings) if you like.
