I know that the ruling I've seen, and use (with 3E, since it's a 3E feat), is that with a weapon used in one hand, you add your Str bonus to your normal damage; with a weapon used in two hands, you add 1.5x Str bonus to your normal damage; and with Power Lunge, you add 2x Str bonus to your normal damage, regardless of whether the weapon is used in one or two hands.
And likewise, I know that the ruling I've seen and use is that a one handed weapon does 2.0x strength bonus, and a two handed weapon does 2.5x strength bonus.
And that Corwin and Souljourn have also seen and use this ruling.
More importantly, I actually remember seeing the other ruling - the one that I don't use.
It really has been ruled both ways, and I've seen the evidence, I've seen both explanations, and I've made my choice.
If you only saw one of the rulings, your opinion simply doesn't carry weight with me at all - you haven't even made an informed choice or invested your thought at all.
When there is a distinct disagreement, it's time to analyze what the actual context of both positions are. If the context of your position is that "you saw someone tell you that it should be XXX way one time" - that just doesn't mean anything to me.
Yes. Yours is a position that I really am going to dismiss. Yours and Reapersaurus both. If you don't know why you hold your opinions, I can't think of any reason why I should change mine to match yours.
