No need to worry, I won't be starting this up right away. I just wanted to run this by everyone and see what they all think of it.
So, anyway, there's always two parts involved in whether you win or lose a fight, regardless of whether it's in a tournament or in a regular RP. These are the abilities of the character and the strategies of the player behind the character. Obviously, the two are interrelated, as the one who made the character usually has an edge. They are intimately familiar with the character and how it functions, often understanding many strategies that the moves were designed around that aren't too obvious.
I thought it might be fun, however, to stir things up, so in this tournament, you enter your character, but you won't play it. In fact, you won't know who will play it, but it definitely won't be you. Once characters are in, who plays who will be selected at random. If it comes up with you getting your own character, however, it will be reselected. The person who gets your character still has to keep that character in-character and can't use abilities or knowledge that character doesn't have.
For instance, if I entered Star, Kainus entered Airoar, Toriji entered Toriji and AoD entered Carrie, I might end up with Toriji, Kainus with Carrie, Toriji with Star and AoD with Airoar. We would then fight with whichever characters we ended up with. If you're worried about your character being taken out of context, don't, it's all AU.
So, what do you all think? Interested?
