[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 265589, member: 326"] [b]tjasamcarl, put to the sword...again.[/b] Hello tjasamcarl mate! :) I thought you knew better than to debate with me after last time!? Guess not! ;) I see you have started early with referencing comments out of context! :) My comment was addressing the Epic Challenge Ratings that myself and CRGreathouse were discussing, not the core CR mechanic. No doubt that bit of evidence passed you by. :rolleyes: Fantastic mate! :D Keep up with the [i]ad hominem[/i] attacks, thats your only hope - since we both know you'll never come up with a legitamate point regarding my systems mechanics! Obviously the Solars CR is wildly incorrect, as are certain dragons. Obviously at a certain point going by ECL; CR 'x+4' is not equal to x4 CR 'x'. These are [b]facts[/b]! But feel free to ignore them further. True to a point. But as I mentioned last week; the secret to CRs is not being right, but rather not being wrong! Since you usually fail to grasp the obvious, that means you don't have to be totally accurate, just don't be totally inaccurate (to the point where the mistake will cause ingame problems). Totally misleading [b]and[/b] another [i]ad hominem[/i] attack in one sentence. Kudos mate! :) Look closely everyone how tjasamcarl makes a last ditch attempt to close the argument by appealing to authority... Instead of addressing my actual mechanics in my article, he denounces the credibility of Asgard magazine! Essentially what hes trying to say is that its not what you know, but who you know! According to him, actual content is irrelevant. Fortunately I (and I'm sure most others here) see his 'Strawman' attacks as for what they are. Stop by anytime tjasamcarl mate - I'm here all week! :p Never before was my sig. more appropriate! [/QUOTE]
