[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 265938, member: 326"] [b]Once more unto the breach...[/b] Hello again tjasamcarl! :) Willful ignorance of the facts does seem to be your M.O. Are you kidding!? I tucked you in early without milk; cookies or a bedtime story! Admittedly most of the 'damage' was self-inflicted. But you only have yourself to blame mate! You misrepresent practically everything I say, you put words in my mouth, make personal attacks, you haven't addressed a single point...etc. What exactly (feel free to quote me) did I say that led you to this conclusion? As far as I can tell you haven't paid any attention to this whole discussion (?) - you just like to instigate feeble [i]ad hominem[/i] attacks without making any relevant points!? Based on what? Where did this pearl of wisdom spring from? Quote me! Obviously not, since to 'get into it' there would need to be something 'there' in the first place! Meaning you would have to make a tangible point. Thats the most ludicrous thing you have said to date! :D You didn't address one single issue! You made a number of personal attacks on me and an appeal to authority where you stated that an article has less merit because its in Asgard, regardless of its content! Actually I took what was supposed to be an 'eyeball' and extrapolated it based on the existing 'constants' of the Core Rules. ...and proceeded to expose flaws in its design when used in conjunction with 'Epic Levels'. Subsequently I backed all this up with relevant [b]facts[/b]* that [b]proved[/b] its inadequacies in this area. *That you blissfully ignore. Red herring comment. Well they did say many times thats what they were doing! Whether they succeeded or not; it was the only logical factor to work upon. Either you assume the levelling process (upon which the framework of Challenge Ratings/Experience Points stems) is balanced; and work from there - or you don't; in which case a large swathe of the Core Rulebooks becomes irrelevant. Aw come on - please get started on it! Pretty please!? :p Is a 9th-level Human Rogue not ECL 9 then, nor CR 9 then!? I'm pretty sure I said nothing of the kind! But feel free to try and mislead opinion further by putting more words in my mouth mate! :) This particular point was addressing the difference between Monsters Races used as PCs and NPCs. Do try to keep up. :rolleyes: It had virtually nothing to do with my overarching structure and negligable effect on my CR system. ...or you'll make yet another personal attack on me. So far you have been unable to point out a single flaw in my mechanics, or reasoning. So I fail to see how you can make such a statement. I LOVE YOU! :D [/QUOTE]
