Toribash

I saw this mentioned in another post, but no thread on it when I searched.

It is a "turn based game" where you are represented by a rag-doll, and you click on joints to either contract or expand limbs, and inflict massive pain on your opponent.

There is Single and Multiplayer.

Single player is versus a dummy which will do nothing. But you CAN control the dummy also, which means you can play with some one else if they are at your house, one person playes Uke (the Dummy) the other plays the player.

Multiplayer is a 1v1 arena match where you have a timed turn to make your move, and when your time is up you move is made.

MODES:
There are different modes, but the most basic is Judo (then Akido, then Joust). Those are the 'beginner' types, not officially, but by my own opinion. The more advanced modes are Swords, Sumo, BetaBox, KickBox, Wushu, Taek Kyon, and Silat, there are probably more, but I do not know of them.

It is a little hard to explain, you just have to jump in to get it.

Here is the main site
Toribash - Violence Perfected
Go there to watch some SWEET replays.

This could also be an offical 'Toribash Replay Thread'
I will post some of mine once I figure out how.

Here is how to make your own room.
(EDIT: Everything in this type should be typed EXACTLY how it is here)

When you are in the lobby hit "C"
Name the server LOSRoom
then right away type /passwd WAR

Sometimes the game will look funny (compared to usual) because when you make a room, it automatically mods the game when you make the room.

If it looks funny and you would like to play by the "classic" rules, type "/set mod classic" once you do that, type "/reset"

I got this for a while but I found it insanely hard to do any good moves...

[OctoberWater]

Really? I found it really hard, until my annoying friend wouldn't stop bugging me to play, so we tried it out, read some of the wiki's and started to actually do good.

No one believes me, but at one point I was ranked 390 at OJ belt, (second lowest belt) when people green and blue (next two above OJ) were ranked in 20k-15k

I don't know how I did it, but I did.

sounds a bit complicated but i might try it out

thanks for the link

It is possible to make your own private server, good for practicing without other people there, but it is pretty hard to get though, either buy with real money or win a LOT of fights.

Well it doesn't sound like a game i would try lol.

@ RobinHood525 - Why not?

[RobinHood525]

I'm not a fan of the 1v1 thing. I like squad tactics and stuff like that. Anything with teams, I am in =)!

[OctoberWater]

I see, need someone else to do your dirty work, a true schemer at heart

Oh my god, this game is addicting. As soon as I get home to a nice internet connection, I will be online with this
