Wonderful, touching move. This is how great men are distinguished from the common ones. Way to go, Z.

A BIG thanks to all 20 participants (and the two immediate replacements - Ferretchucker and Nightmare_Of_Death) for making BR IV a success. Special thanks to the 2 reps because they were ready and willing to take over immediately (from Dara's & hammerfan's position) and so I was spared from searching for other replacements, especially during HDC's lull period.

Thank you, Marley's Ghost, for producing such wonderful tombstones through the years for all of Battle Royale's iterations, adding a touch of aristocratic flair to the deaths (exits) of all the participants of BR from 2008 to 2012. Great work!

And last but not the least at all, the immensely talented and insightful Judges of the Final Challenge, whose completely impartial, insightful and wonderful judgements helped immensely in choosing the Winner of BR IV. A crown much deserved (yet again) which went to our resident redhead simian, Zero. In case you couldn't deduce who they were from their criticisms/scores, Judge #1 was our very esteemed HDC-ian, neverending, and Judge #2 was our much-respected resident HDC Idol, Chronogrl. Thank you.

HDC Battle Royale is now FINALLY, COMPLETELY, TOTALLY closed. There will be no more iterations of it (sorry, folks!) in the years to come. It did it's part in HDC's history, now it's only fitting that the recurring Chapter of HDC Battle Royale is closed, and it signs out when it is still on a high.

(notice the number of times "it" sprung up back there? just kidding!)


Ciao!

(small sequence after the end credits)

Somewhere out in the universe, in the deepest reaches of space...

Galactus watches the Final Battle of Battle Royale IV, and smiles to himself.
Nearby, a planet disintegrates to bits as Galactus opens his mouth, accompanied by egoistic, maniacal laughter.
One of his huge eyes turns around, focusing directly on planet HDC.

Thank you, Marley.

Big thanks to you for producing such wonderful tombstones over the years for HDC Battle Royale. Added a note of thanks to my post above (apologies for forgetting your contribution). Deepest, heartfelt thanks for your support over the years.

*raising a toast to Marley's Ghost*

The really disturbing thing about that is that after your 'death' the Hellspawns took turns going Nekromantik on your ass and you never said a word. :eek:

Good game Zero. So that's it. At least I got to play the last game for the first time.


Marley's Ghost -

I don't think I ever got a tombstone. But maybe that's a good thing seeing as I am immortal...


Judge NEVERENDING and Judge CHRONOGRL -

What about that final answer movie? I still really want to know what movie you both were looking for as an answer.

Thanks for a fun game team. V too. Tons of work went into this.
