Mun-FYI and fight club update

 First, let me apologize for being radio silent and not tagging back with threads. Work has been nutty and it's been pretty hot when I get home, not to mention end of the school year shenanigans with my daughter, which all adds up to a shortage of RPG spoons for me. I will try to get back to threads tomorrow, if not tonight.

Next up, the fight club! Since this is possibly a more permanent thing, Sam insisted I get buy off from both Security and the Milliways Mods, both of which I have done. Mod approval was due to the fact he wants to build more lasting sparing rings outback, rather than the rough ones he marked out with his heel last time. Security buy off was to make sure we played by the rules and no one gets locked up.

What I have in mind so far are slightly raised rings of different shapes: circles for hand-to-hand, squares for weapons, and rings with triangles within them for teaching. For example, a circle with a triangle will be for hand-to-hand instruction. The idea of the shapes is to make it as easy as possible to know what type of sparing is expected. The number of rings will be left vague so we can have as many as needed for each fight club.

Karkat has alchemized weapons that heal when they strike and so we can plan safe, right? Sam will have the index cards for the weapons with him at the fight club and the weapons should have the same weight and feel of the non-alchemized ones.

The ground outback is like that of the Scottish highlands, and so the rings ground will match, unless anyone wants to come up with ways to add loose gravel/sand, padding of some sort, or whatever else, that's what we get. Also, if enough time occurs between fight clubs, the forest may grow over the area. Could make for some plot there me thinks.

I mean to EP Sam working on building the rings either Sunday or Monday. The week of the next fight club, I will post any updates on the rings, as well as IC and OoC rules for the fight club.

So any questions or ideas? This is for all of us, so I am open to changing any of this.
