The Vagabonds is an interactive game, here on steemit, based on my original paintings. In the first phase, I presented 8 unique characters, and in that phase you, yes, you determined their own unique Name, their positive as well as their negative trait and their unique weapon/artefact/superpower.
Now, in this second phase, we're pitching these 8 fictional Vagabonds in fictional one-on-one contests/games/battles, ... also chosen by you! (You can still suggest games/contests/battles in a comment in this post and I'm letting the dice choose randomly for every match - we do have some great suggestions, so thanks already for that! The outcome of the fictional contest is also interactive: I present the characters and the contest, and you can comment on how you see this particular contest turn out, and who wins in your scenario. A winner will be chosen and will move on to the Semi-Final, and the Final, until we have our Grand Vagabond Winner!
But before we move on to the last Quarter-Final, the third Quarter-Final must be resolved!
Four official entries were made: @edward.maesen, @sudong, @junsusukhairi and, in the nick of time, @fraenk all presented their own weird scenario. There was violence!, there was chaos!, some old characters turned up (Zygmunt!), some surprising new character, @cuddlekitten!, ran away with The Torch of Bragging Rights. It was awesome, it was fun, it was mayhem, it was Vagabonds at their best! There was also plenty of interaction between the players: I'm seeing people upvoting other players' posts, and responding to each other. I've had a few busy days myself, and I'm coming back to see this great party - I'm seeing everybody enjoying this already legendary competition, thank you all, this is really what I intended it should be :D
As I'm seeing everybody did an honest effort to come up with a story, I'm dividing 1.1 sbd between all four entries and I do not decide on a clear winning player: Mutia gets two wins, Pattimura gets one and a vague one. So it's time to roll the dice.
@cuddlekitten has ran away with the torch of bragging rights in the entries, so obviously it's all hers right now!EDIT to this very niflheim-y situation, rightly pointed out by @fraenk. With four space-temporal dimensions overlapping eachother - happening at the same time in similar yet, different co-ordinates along the v-w-x-y-z-axes -not to mention the e-x-c-e-l-vector points, there was bound to be some confusion among the players, interacting characters and interfering kittens. After an interstellar blur and the ubiquitous CTRL-Z-move, the following upgrade was made to the Vagabonds-universe: all players are right, as well as all commenters. @steemkitten got the torch back, to give to the player she wishes. Let @steemkitten cast a vote.
The dice@steemkitten and the majority here have chosen the Vagabond. The Metaverse can handle this hiccup :)The Vagabond advancing to the Semi-Finals is... Mutia, the Allmighty but Tiresome Heretic with her Sword of Death!
So Now then, Then now!, on to the last Quarter Final!
How will this one turn out!? It's do or die for these guys, unless you come up with something really imaginative. It's a formidable Octogenerian and an Unstoppable Vampire Hunter fighting it out. One's lazy but with a dagger, the other one's apologetic with Gauntlets. This could be good! Try to take in account all aspects of the characters - positive and negative traits, and their weapons. It may be short, it may be extensive, but it should be original.
And it could be your entry advancing either Vagabond to the Semi-Finals. Have fun, The first Semi-Final is coming up in roundabout 48 hours. Thanks for playing & have fun! :)
Good evening everyone, I am back again with the story and new spirit of Indonesia for this match between the Caern, Octogenerian is tough but bad with Dagger of Truth its VS Droopy, Hunter Vampire unstoppable but apologetic with Gauntlets of Fractured Eons. Here is the story: The story centered from the Swordsman named Droopy, the unstoppable but apologetic Hunter Vampire with Gauntlets of Fractured Eons was forced to descend the mountain from his hermitage because the head of the market thugs @Caern wanted to hunt and was about to kill him inside the hermitage cave. Even the top swordsmen of the two samudrapun chase after him are @monica and @pattimura who have the same intent to kill him. @Droopy finally met with @monica and @pattimura, there was a fight between swordsman two on one. Finally, the two swordsman lost and became blind, they were only paralyzed by the swordsman @Droopy just by using his poisonous spit spray into their eyes. Two days have passed from the tragic events between @Droopy VS @Monica and @Pattimura. It was time for a meeting between two black classified swordsman @Caern VS white group @Droopy. swordsman @Caern is a very powerful and feared market thugs and swordsman @Droopy is a swordsman deeply feared by the martial world. Without saying much they immediately fought blindly, one very strong and the other very strong. What a rare fight and one of the greatest battles in the world. Two hours have passed and various kinds of moves have been issued, @Caern finally started issuing the ultimate weapon that is his Dagger of Truth. really great and terrible dagger of truthnya kekalanataan @caern. Once he brings out his rays then what he wears becomes burned. @Droopy began to overwhelm and disekujurnya many scars are very severe burns. His strength began to weaken so he pulled out his ultimate weapon, the unstoppable but apologetic Hunter Vampire with Gauntlets of Fractured Eons. This weapon only he special use when fighting a very tough opponent. By uttering the "abracadabra" spell three times, this weapon finally appears in his hand with his lightning light up to the sky making nature seem to want to cry. Do not wait @Droopy directly using an unstoppable but apologetic Hunter with Gauntlets of Fractured Eons to his body @Caern. It's amazing that lightning light makes the @Caern body breaks into pieces. @Droopy wins very tired, finally he goes back into the cave to recover his strength. (CONNECTED TO FINAL GAME) ..

Yay! We have a third epic story. This time a true heroic battle! Whenever the poisonous spit spray enters the story, we know it's serious business!
Despite minor language barriers you are a worthy contestant in this game!
But, now with two wins for Droopy (and a third in a minor battle), it doesn't look good for Caern's fate:( Yet, the Torch of Bragging Rights is in his possession. How will this round end?
Will Caern's new-found ally, Duff the time-traveling dragon return to the play? Is he even an ally or does he have more nefarious plans? (After all, he is a reptilian). We'll have to wait and see how the timeline in our current observable reality unfolds...

Indeed a very impressive and chaotic battle, thanks for your entry! Even though it didn't mention the last place on the last boat of the Titanic (or maybe this all took place on the Titanic?), your story will still be in there with a chance when the dices will roll. Good luck! First Semi-Final coming up soon!

I'm sorry mr @ Marty-art, because it's too serious in making my story until I forget the important thing that I forgot about last place on the last ship Titanic. I'm making a very impressive and chaotic story, I do not like the theme of romance. thanks, hope you like it !!!

And there's nothing romantic about trying to get to the last place on the last lifeboat of the Titanic, this isn't some B-movie were playing here :D

Someone hasn't been paying attention, or I am too confused by all the madness here already?!
actually @steemkitten delivered the torch back to the arena, she didn't bring it to anyone in particular, so I guess we do need to know who was chosen by the dice.
And then... If the dice chose a fate in which Pattimura won... how was @cuddlekitten ever even in the scene...
but it's ok... you're the boss... you make the rules... you don't have to explain yourself... I'm just sayin...

You're the boss, what works for you, works for me... I am a bit disappointed because I still think Mutia won, @deemarshall was really hoping for that, too... I bet she'll be sad as well...
Now look at all the sadness you've brought...

Ah, man, playing the emotional card! Changing Pattimura winning to Mutia winning would be a Mandela Effect instead of just a glitch in the matrix. Not likely, but not impossible! Let's see: anyone can vote: does Pattimura win or does Mutia win?

Yes, good kitty in good old 100.39% fair manner brings the torch back to whom it was stolen from... and who justifiably determined Mutia's cuddly fate with @cuddlekitten.

Allright, Mandela-effect coming through! Apparently the majority here remembers the dice rolling an even number: making the win go to Mutia, and not an uneven number: making the win go to Pattimura. I guess me & my excel remembered it plain wrong!
Sh*t happens, I stand corrected, the popular vote wins. Mutia goes through.
But still... Something feels off... I wonder if it will be settled in the Semi-Finals...

Nah... no need to feel sorry for anything. Each choice made spawns its own alternate universe, so there are plenty of universes where Pattimura is the winner... ;)

Thanks, feel free to join the game! It's a fictional battle in which one character, a Formidable but Lazy Octogenerian competes with an Unstoppable but Apologetic Vampire Hunter for the last place on the last rescue boat on the Titanic. It's crazy, I know, I don't even know how we ended up here. But it's fun :)

for me that will win is droopy, although caern is tougher but he can be beat with a dagger to freeze, because droopy uses imagination to defeat the caern is tough.

he's a tough guy jack with love for rose, and they both love each other and have a close relationship, but unfortunately their love is too short just on a Titanic submarine only, because an accident happened. but they keep fighting to the ground but fate tells the other the ship sinks and the jack froze in the northern ocean in order to save the lover, a sacrificial love story

So, yeah, you described Titanic, the movie obviously, but who wins in this game and how? Caern or Droopy? This isn't about Jack and Rose, this is about this. Please.

Today my sad and terrible story at @steemit, I sent all the SBDs I got to the wrong account / robot and I did not receive a proper upvote. Really I'm sorry and when my craving will end. I'm finished! maybe tomorrow I'll think clearly first to continue the game here with you all. Thank you mr @marty-art who is too good to me.

Hey man, first of all: don't panic, it's only cryptomoney - unless you have invested a lot of cash into steem, there's nothing lost. Looking to your wallet: nothing is lost. There's nothing gained either, but nothing lost as well. That's a beginning, ok?
Second, what account/bot did you send money to? Most bots send your funds back after some time if they cannot upvote your post. You may see your sbd back.
Third: be wary of upvote-bots. They're not that profitable. Giving them money isn't guaranteed to make you money. Do your research!
Fourth: you're not finished on steemit. And this post here is just a game, don't feel obliged to partake if you're feeling stressed, if you feel like you're down and out, or not in a happy mood. It won't help but I'll welcome you back when you feel fine :)
And last: see the first of all: don't panic :)

Thanks mr @marty-art for the solution and its input. I feel telling the right person. Sorry if I interrupt your valuable time. I made a mistake and did not
be alert to upvote-bots. Today They are not so profitable. I just realized, Giving them money does not guarantee can make money. I will continue the game because I like it here. I will soon recover from adversity to always play in every game you make. I'm definitely trying and will continue to have more passion here. money I can definitely find again but a friend like you is second to none.
