New Game of Death: Battle Royale of the GAWDS

[clockworkjoe]

I'm not actually in the game, but as a spectator this ^ is exactly what i'd like to see.

Sure, those smackdowns are fun to read about in the right thread, but this is not the time or place. This thread to me seems to be about having a good fight and some fun.

I only hope that no-one resorts to unfair play and then uses the old excuse of 'my char is evil so its what they would do'.

P.S. I thought the rules clearly stated no OA stuff? I dont have that book and cant check up on things clearly.

What do you mean by unfair play?

And yes, OA is banned. I made an exception for reaper.

I think you should just have Ares stand up(be sure to describe him as looking like Kevin Tod Smith, the (now deceased) actor who played Ares on Hercules and Xena) and just nuke reapersaurus for being an ingrate. Just my opinion.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm here to have a good fight and have fun (and maybe win if I'm lucky), not play "who can find the most broken combo loophole". Sure we're all pretty powerful and minmaxed, but there's making a powerful/minmaxed character, and then there's bickering, arguing and whining with the DM to make an insanely/stupidly powerful character.

Hey, you guys are complaining - so does that make you guys "whiners" too?
At least I did it factually and objectively stating events that happened, and let the reader come to his own conclusions based on the facts - I'm not deliberately misrepresenting things like Bhall here.

Hey, Bhall - did you read anything, or just make up what happened?
I made this clear already, but I'll state it again for people who have gum in their ears, or who just would rather remember it wrong:

Check out my list: I didn't argue or complain about the multitude of things clockwork did (regardless of how much it cost me) until he made up that Divine Might and Spikes didn't stack with Divine Shield.
That's not even close to what you're making up, so I'd prefer that you stop poking when it's not applicable, since I can't even clarify incorrect and slanderous statements without someone calling me a whiner who can't let it go or faulting me for bringing it up.

If anyone has issue with any denial on my list (except the Contemplative. - remember - I agreed with clockwork on a few of them), they are welcome to email me.

Bhaal, my character is certainly not insanely overpowerful (never was, in comparison to the power that's out there right now), and I never asked for anything special for my character beyond the Singh Rager, and that everyone heard from the beginning. I'm not the only one that has exceptions (psionic lich, etc), and i'm fairly certain that there are more than a couple characters in this contest currently that couldn't stand up to nearly the rules attention that's been paid to mine.

As for "trying to have a good fight, have fun, and win", you're no different in that regard.
I'd wager that most of us are "pretty powerful and minmaxed".
My final character version isn't even minmaxed completely, after all the removals, etc. I kinda ran out of time in my life.

blackshirt5 - *edited by request*, I too think that Kevin Smith is a MUST for the Ares character.

C'mon, people - we all know better than that. We can still hate one another, s'long as we do it politely.

I'm gonna beat a dead horse here some more.

Divine Might and Divine Shield are both standard actions to activate.

Divine Spikes, got no clue what that is from or what it does.

Bottome line who gives 2 flying f's about it anymore, the point is mute. So what if you didn't like the fact that clockwork didn't want an obviously broken character in here. He could have said no once and that was it. You keep complaining about spending so much time on making a character. Well that isn't anyones fault but your own. You knew he had final say and you didn't have to keep making new ones if you didn't want to. I'm sure he didn't hold a gun to your head and demand of you to make a new character.

 

[Berk]

And there is no need for any of this bull blackshirt and reaper. Act like mature adults even if you aren't, this is public.

 

[reapersaurus]

oh, yeah - like I'm the aggressor here.
fine.
*points to bs *
HE STARTED IT!

And Divine Might has been clarified as a free action.

edit: And it's just Spikes, not Divine Spikes (that sounds painful)

and the point is moot, not mute. (I wish it could be mute, but I won't turn my cheek to THAT crap.)

edit #2 : blackshirt - I'll kindly request that you not include my dad, or vulgarity in this. I should not have to explain why.

 

[Berk]

And Divine Might has been clarified as a free action.

It has? Where?

Divine Might is a Divine Feat and there for follows the rules for Divine Feats, ie.. Since turning/rebuking undead is a standard action then so is activating any divine feat that uses turn/rebuke attempts. Seems clear enough to me without having to clarify it at all.

and the point is moot, not mute. (I wish it could be mute, but I won't turn my cheek to THAT crap.)

And it is mute, not moot, cuz noone seems to be listening, it isn't moot because there is no unsettled question here.
