[QUOTE="Dozen, post: 6167918, member: 6698275"] That's it. I'm done being nice. Yeah. Yeah, I'm not buying that in this lifetime. Saying your argument is not X at the start of the argument doesn't magically void everything that would suggest it is X afterwards, you know. Moreover, saying 'you know' after stating a trivial fact based on the assumption rather than clear knowledge the recipient isn't aware questions and undermines the recipient's status as to slowly chip away his self-esteem. You know. Cheapass psychological attacks against those who plan to major in psychology tend not to work out very well. You know?:D Well, yes. Why wouldn’t I? It's a 6th grader level equation and every information necessary is given. Takes about half a minute with a calculator when I take my time, and mostly you can prepare beforehand anyway. Here's falling: m(obj.; lbs.)/100(min.1)*1d6*(10ft+Hardness-6)*v[SUP]2[/SUP](median homo s.)/v[SUP]2[/SUP](obj.)+a(Ability Modifier) The others are a little more complicated, and since assuming your debate partners are intellectually inferior is accepted and commonplace here, I'll follow your lead and keep them to myself. Gee, I wonder if they would invent and cast a hazardous spell without proper safety measures taken. Now seriously, are you high? Because I am, and I still would have seen this coming from a mile away. You knew very well what I was going to answer. What's the point in asking other than pissing me off? Duh. Various sources of Arcana too numerous to list. The damn thing just floats about in the multiverse, flip up the Manual of the Planes or the Planar Handbook sometime. Material components provide either clear assistance to creating circumstances that make the spell effect possible, symbolic meaning/sacrifice in pact-based magic or psychological support to the caster(a.k.a. placebo, see Dragonlance prequel Brother's In Arms, Raistlin Chronicles). When they are not outright Glitterdust-style "jokes" that fail at being funny. Lazy to glance at the school descriptions to come up with a half-decent argument? How respectful of you. Can you report a fellow ENWorlder for being willfully ignorant? Does that count as disruptive? Material involved in Conjuration spells always comes from somewhere. There are potentially infinite possible sources of matter to be arranged in a shape and form that provides nourishment. It doesn't violate anything other than your limited imagination. When conjured? The Elemental Plane of Fire. Again, duh. Other than that, the circumstances necessary to keep the flame burning (or in existence, as the case may be with Evocation) are maintained for the spell's duration from the surrounding Arcana. What was that about paying attention to me again? Absorbed by the Shadowstuff the darkness consists of. I didn't even need to come up with this one, it's canon. See Lesser Shadow Magic entry in Tome of Magic Chapter two, and origin stories of the Plane of Shadow. Momentum and velocity are not maintained, due to the nature of planar travel. Why planar, you ask? The vast majority of teleportation spells cause the target to enter the Astral Plane(in case they weren't there already), where momentum and velocity don't exist. You knew that? Of course you did, but you started stating the obvious. Even if I didn't know I could use Google, you passive-agressive prick. Don't hide your dislike of me(at least not so badly) and I might respect you for it.[I] Or maybe you could forgo the backhanded routine and I'd stop hurling insults in return. [/I]Maybe. And you'd dare to play grammar nazi when you argued we shouldn't use the word 'instant''s textbook definition because it was more convenient for you? Congrats, you just won the yearly Hypocrite award. Bu-huhu-huulllpiiiieeees. It's must be nice to assume everything works the same way for everyone as it does for you until proven otherwise, but come on. Every once in a while the assumption will be false and you end up looking silly. Spare yourself the trouble and ask first before you draw a premature conclusion. Did it occur to you at any moment that I may possibly know what my own motives are as opposed to lying to myself, and recognize if I didn't achieve my goals yet? Yes? Or is that something I can't be possibly capable of in your opinion? While I would love to point out the giant gaping holes in your ridiculous, albeit funny shamster story based on a rule a DM came up with on the fly, I find I care less and less for talking to you. If you’re actually interested in that, say so, until then I’m not wasting my time. (Oh, edit: You know the thing about Bulverism and Appeals to Motive? They don't work. My emotional state and what I want to achieve has nothing to do with how right or wrong I am. Be nice and don't focus your retort on it.) [/QUOTE]
