Have any questions? A dispute needing a little settling? Ask it here and a crew member will get to you as soon as they can. Don't be rude, or else you can face consequences in having your problem become a worse one.

This is embarassing...

I was cleaning out my inbox some, and I accidentally deleted the message where I submitted my final profile redface , and I forgot how I set Thurgood's rage ability to work, especially the die rolls.

Any way I could get a copy of the accepted profile?

I need same as above. I know all the stats except the changes me and Midus made to the psionic abiltily List. I posted all related info in the fight in that post but a confirmation email from Midus on the exact stats we changed the abilitly too would be awesome. ninja

I'm going to have forfeit my match due to inability to participate. A close member of my family that has been sick took a turn for the worse and is dealing with a life and death situation .

If Thurgood disconnected the hitch from the tow vehicles ball, would that disqualify him, even though there hould be safety chains to take the weight in case of such a "failure"?

Don't do it. Even though the platform is technically being pulled with equal weight on all wheels, I rather you don't mess with any mechanisms controlling the platform.

Well, my character totally did, and I'm sure you'll DQ me for it, but I'd rather stay true to my character...

...which means he'll keep fighting Thoma despite being DQ'd

This is one of those matters where I would say that you should reverse your decision. But, since I never said it would be DQ for tampering with the mobility of the platform, it won't count against you.

Well, Thurood didn't really affect the mobility of the platform at all: he just changed the method that it's attached to the tow vehicle. Instead of through the ball and socket, the float is being pulled by the safety chains.

Alright, I could deal with instant, unstoppable, undetectable, dues ex machina type power up used in the middle of an attack, but this one makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

I don't really like criticizing someone's character design, but seriously, this makes no sense, at all.

Maybe the issue might be his word choice to describe what's really happening, but as of right now...

Just no.

Vash Sengou
So his opponent managed to cover twenty-two feet with his flight. Vash couldn’t imagine how his bolt had managed to push him that far up to cover that kind of a distance especially since it had only connected with his opponent’s outstretched arm versus his chest cavity. Even then his opponent had to be light as ******** unless Vash didn’t know his own strength. Either way it wouldn’t matter too much. Today was his day and it seemed his opponent would be putting himself into a sticky situation. If he was in Razel’s position, pushing the jug off the side wouldn’t really seem like a bad idea. Fighters were trained to be aware of small details like Vash’s neglect to begin closing the distance. Thus would lead any experienced fighter to look over his shoulder briefly since something had to be amiss. It was then he the jug would be noticed, tipped over and spilling its contents slowly behind him...

Razel wasted too much time attempting to make this match out to be a ‘simple walk in the park’ and he would begin see why. As Razel begun to speak and move his foot towards the jug, Vash would be on the move. A motionless body quickly turned into a sprinting figure that would cover the distance between the two fairly quickly. As he ran the fingers of his right hand extended independently and retracted quickly while his left hand quickly launched its contents towards Razel in a burst pattern. As Razel’s foot connected with the jug the result would not be that of a rolling object that would remove itself from the field of battle rather, the jug exploded. The eruption of the jug was not in a traditional sense where it was torn asunder and launching itself like pieces of shrapnel. What Razel had to be concerned with was the sudden eruption of water that exploded from the mouth of the jug as if it had been pressurized and was now attempting to relieve itself. The water, once slowly creating a puddle that threatened to wet the bottom of Razel’s shoes, now became a running faucet of water that not only created a puddle around him but would soak the bottom portion of his legs and shoes. It was probable that Razel would try to move however he would find himself in the midst of a problem. The water had quickly started to freeze and threatened to hold him into place and would be able to withstand a nice tug from him. If the orbs were to hit him or the water they would explode with an electric burst not unlike what he had experienced earlier from his gauntlets. Each orb held a charge of thirty thousand volts and if they all hit itd probably hurt like a b***h and hopefully stun the demon for long enough…
Flight pattern- Two aimed for water, three localized around chest cavity and arms.

Charge lvl 1.5
L gauntlet-0
R gauntlet 30,000
Electrode mines- 30 (5 in flight)



First, is this a ******** bag or a round jar? At first it was described as a bag, which I thought was ******** weird, and then a jar. The two look very different, are made of very different materials, and would behave differently when moved. I'm just assuming at this point it's more like a ******** gatorade container than an actual duffel bag since it's rolling around.

If it's rolling and Razel is simply pushing it aside, how is it all of a sudden going from pretty much dripping to suddenly exploding like a shaken pop bottle? I mean, falling onto the ground hard enough to have the cork pop out should have caused this before a tap with the foot. With the cork gone and the pressure inside the bottle lowered, you know, because the jar is now open, where the ******** is the pressure coming from to make it all of a sudden want to explode?

That's not going to happen with the bottle of carbonated water sitting next time me, but I don't feel like mopping up just to test something that's already pretty obvious.

And even then, I could push a ******** gatorade container full of water easily with my foot. Does this water have some kind of homing device?

And then the whole water freezing thing. Ok, this might be some magic water, or this guy might have some cyrokinesis, but what the ********? I mean, this is water right? I'm just making sure you're thinking what I am, it's water.

Ok, so it's water.

Now, the jug might have something in it to keep the water tepid or whatever, I don't know. I mean, ********, I still don't know whether it's a ******** jug or duffel bag. But let's assume that's not the case and the temperature inside the jug is relatively the same, if not lower, than it is outside of it.

How the ******** is the water not freezing in the jug? And let's assume that isn't the problem, how the ******** is the water freezing outside of the jug? I know it's not specifically mentioned how hot or cold it is outside, but come the ******** on. Why isn't the water freezing as soon as it hits the air? I mean, that would make sense if the water somehow froze only outside of the jug.

And let's just assume it is magical water and s**t. Wouldn't flash freezing require a LITTLE bit of effort at least?

It wouldn't be so bad if I didn't have to wait 2-3 days for this, for no real reason either, but this is what I get to work with.

I don't mean to question your thinking Vintrict, but can you please explain to me what the ******** is going on with this?

Absolute Virtue


Sorry. Even though I'm not a crew, I think the answer is pretty simple.


He's a Water Elemental user. Like how Joe is an Air Elemental User.

He's using his will to make the water move around and explode out...and freeze and s**t. Like Avatar the Last Airbender.



...as for it being a duffel bag or a bottle. *Shrugs* sweatdrop Of course, that's just my view of your fight. I'm pretty sure Vash and Vin could explain it better than me.
PostPosted: Thu Feb 23, 2012 12:30 pm


Let's just assume he's a water elemental, I can't say for sure yet, it still doesn't explain some of the core problems.

What's keeping the jug from simply rolling into the street? Surely he isn't focusing on that, or is he? And even then, the how the ******** is he doing it with the water? If he wants to explode it out, in what possible way could he be using the water inside to counteract the force moving the jug outside.

And then the whole flash freezing thing is still an issue. In every piece of fantasy where such an ability exists, it takes some degree of focus. You rarely, if ever, see a character sprinting, aiming, and doing a bunch of acrobatic s**t while simultaneously, instantly freezing a large pool of water.

Hell, for Razel to kick the damn jug to the side the now exploding water shouldn't even be facing him. Yeah, that stone tile Vash is trying to run on should be slippery, and should probably fall and break his neck.

The more I think about it, the more I want to slam a door into my head.

I cannot do much to answer your questions fully partially because my pgone isnt displaying your entire post but epic is correct. Vash is a water elementalist. Now my jug of water is the size of a duffle bag. My verbage may have been off but I cant check with my phone. Hopefully I answered part of your questions if not all.
