http://www.buttonmen.com/ works too. It's a redirect, though.

Doesn't really capture the atmosphere of the original, I don't think, but the gameplay is faithful. If anyone's interested in a game, my username on there is "triskaideka".

Button Men looks complicated until you play it for about ten seconds.

And of course, it's not as good as playing it face to face, but you can play anyone in the country and don't actually have to buy buttons or dice.

I'll challenge someone in a minute... and I won't use ZDon or Bennett, really.

The basic principles of playing Button Men are simple, but IMHO, over time the game has become a lot more complex than is good for it.

I have two button men who play by very simple rules. Each has five dice of varying sizes. One might have a variable number of sides, I'm not sure. Then I have Tirade, who has one normal die, one Turbo Swing die, and two Time & Space dice. I mean, what the fuck? Part of the elegance of the concept was that you could play without referring to a rulebook. How am I supposed to keep track of all this crap even with a rulebook in front of me?

Anyway. Just bitching. It's still a cool game.

Did somebody mention this last year? Oh well.

And I thought I was a game junkie.

Well, I can keep the rules for all the die types in my head. At least until I saw all the new ones the site had that the real game doesn't. I know most of what I know about Button Men from the Brawl website (http://www.beatpeopleup.com). Coming up with new dice for every set is part of the game, I guess.

BTW, my name there is "NeoVid". Surprise. I know Big Evil Dan's is "bigevildan"... am I right to assume Gabe's is "Ass_Raider"?

Well, my lack of net time has stalled my matches, but I should mention I usually have twice as much time on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

And just because I thought of it...

Button Man: Tobor
Tobor occasionally takes a break from cornholing people to beat them up instead.
20, 20, q20, q20

I thought we could use these formulae to start a "development" game, but apparently "You must have played more than 50 games to make development games." So I guess I'd better get cracking. I'm dying to find out which one-note character would win in a fight.

I think Tobor might need to keep at least two of his dice to win, but with the discrepancy in sizes, that might not be so difficult.

You can't make dev characters until you've played a lot? Aww.

Though I have no damn idea what dice he should have- though making him one of the characters that copies the opponent's dice might work- I thought of this:

Captain Obvious is here to beat people up.

That's no fun.

Speaking of no fun, our game is still only on our second round, when I'm on my second game against Deceiver and nearly done facing Dan.

And I thought I was slow.

A pipe dream I had, which had me wondering just how popular SC is: The Stripcreator series of Button Men. Hey, Sluggy Freelance managed it. Though none of us deserve to be Button Men, except Brad.
