Judging system for the Budokai tourney(97-98)

System of judging for the Tenkai-Ichi Budokai:



Just like the elimination rounds, your attacks and defenses will be rated with points. However, unlike the elimination rounds, if your defense is rated lower than your opponent's attack, then you will recieve a certain amount of damage to your body!
I, being the referee, will inform you if you are damaged by your opponent. My decision is final, and you must take your injuries into account for the rest of the match!

I would like to remind the fighters that you are being judged based on 4 things:
1) Credibility (How believeable is that attack/defense? Can he do that with the damage he's taken?)
2) Effectiveness (How effective is the attack? Does the defense effectively counter the attack?)
3) Description (Does it paint a vivid picture in our minds, while at the same time not being too confusing?)
4) Creativity (Is it boring, or is it interesting, cool, or fun?)

The fight ends when your opponent is decisivly beaton. This means either unconsies, unable to continue fighting, or dead... fighters may also give up if they so desire. There will be no time limit for the fight.

However, there will be a time-limit on responses. A fighter is expected to respond within 200 seconds, or he will be penalized a little... if he takes more than 300 seconds, the penalty will be more severe. If your browser times out or your computer crashes, it is unfortunate... but that will not be acceptable as an excuse.
