Chapter Text
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Orange Ratchet, and I’m about to start my very own UVR Spinoff series! If you don’t know what that is, the questions down below will answer all your worries!
Question 1: What the heck is UVR?
Answer: The UVR is a popular crossover votefic, which this very story was inspired by. And it’s not the first story to be created either, since this was inspired by other votefics on the site, like Battle of the Luminaries by Tinyrocket and the Megamix Tournament by SSBFreak.
Question 2: Why is there a mix of fighting games, cartoons and anime?
Answer: That’s what makes this spinoff unique from others. Some UVR spinoffs restrict themselves to fighting games, so I wanted to mix it up a bit by putting in a few fighting games, some RPGs, and even a couple of cartoons and anime I grew up with. However, this is still a fighting tournament to the core.
Question 3: What are 'Big Guys'?
Answer: Big Guys can be one of two things: Boss characters or people that are just really big. For each Big Guy in the ring at a time, one extra fighter will get eliminated at the end of the section. For example, four characters classified as Big Guys all get into the arena. Instead of the usual fifteen fighters getting eliminated, nineteen will get the boot instead.
Question 4: How do the elimination counts go?
Answer: The top fifteen fighters in each section will get at least one elimination, no matter if they survive the section or not. However, if there's a Big Guy in the ring, the top fighter will get two eliminations instead of just one. So if there are four Big Guys, the top four fighters will get two eliminations.
Question 5: What exactly is Fatigue?
Answer: It doesn't matter how strong they are. Everyone gets tired after a while. So for every section a fighter survives, one automatic 'die' vote is given to them at the beginning of the next section, making their survival that much harder. For example, one character has survived for four sections and another character has survived for three. At the beginning of the next section, the first character will have four automatic 'die' votes and the other character will have three.
Question 6: How do I vote?
Answer: It’s a very simple process. You can fill out a voteform and post it in your review, if you want. You must give out fifteen 'live' votes for the people you want to see survive the section, and fifteen 'die' votes for the people you want to see get eliminated. If there's an uneven amount, I'll even them out myself.
Also note that there are side matches going on outside the arena with each section. If there are, simply say whom you'll like to see win the side matches.
Question 7: Why do you have characters from cartoons in one section and an anime node in another?
Answer: The original tournaments also added RPGs, so I figured Kingdom Hearts (which IS a video game) would be a good way to show off the Disney fighting style of most of the characters. As for Tokyo Mew Mew, yes, it was a manga and an anime, but it also had a video game, so I’m going to count that as well. As for the last node on the fighting card… this is basically a Smash clone, and this is the only excuse I have for using this! Heh heh heh...
