I'm hesitant to ban power copying outright because I don't want to limit the creative freedom of the participants to much, but I will try to come up with some details as to what is and isn't allowed in that regard. But power copying from your opponent is DEFINITELY not allowed.
I see several also, which I'll probably address later in an updated list of banned characters. Anyone that people feel is inappropriate can be PM'd to me(along with the reasons as to why) and I'll go over everything with the people helping me before I make a call on them.
But keep in mind that Iron Man IS a lot more powerful than many give him credit for, so many characters who SEEM to be over the caps really aren't.
You really underestimate Ironman if you think those guys should be kicked. (Havok???)
Also, I am kind of confused. Are you saying I could take the body of She-Hulk, the Mind of Tony Stark (therefore also having his amour), and the powers of Invisible Woman?
What about say, the powers of Spiderman? Would I need his body, or would it fall under powers?

Well, current Havok anyway. Apparently according to Mr. Master, Havok is the nexus of realities. He's a god damn abstract. We had a huge shit fit about Guardian last time, I don't want to go through one again. And sans CIS, in an amalgam, Electro's powers are too good. Booster and the Tick, I dunno.

Yeah you could take that combo(or one like it) if you wanted.
Spidey's abilities would be spit between powers and body. Strength, speed and agility would fall under body, but wall crawling, organic webs, stingers, and spider sense would all fall under powers.
Tick has other weaknesses. He's sweet as hell, but anyone who takes him is screwed....no point in banning him.
Guardian should be fine...there were insane PIS circumstances for that Galactus feat, and otherwise he's fine. Box, Mar-Vell, Engineer were the big "controversies" last tourney.

what do you mean, blair? don't you know that everyone here at the kmc is an expert and knows exactly how and where everyone should be placed in terms of tiers and powerlevels?
i swear to gawd -- between that embarrassment of a tournament last month and the whiners regarding that list thread (which everyone was more than welcome to add to and comment on, btw) this forum has taken a nasty downward spiral of late.
if you're not part of the solution . . .
goob -- it sounds cool, like i told you in the pm's. i'm still a bit unclear in regards to the armor/equipment rules but frankly, i'm not sure you'll be able to handle some of the babies who will want in, nor am i sure it will actually get going. based on some of what i've seen of late, it will fall apart in the drafting process or the whining will reach a point where you simply shut it down.
Alright I guess it's best to handle these one by one...

What don't you understand? PM me a scenario if you have something in mind but don't want to make it public. Or just ask here for general clarification.
Oh I can handle the babies. I'm a pretty patient guy but I'm not afraid to tell them that it's my call and that's the end of it if it becomes necessary. And as for whether or not it gets going...hey maybe maybe not. If there's not enough interest for it to get off the ground then it won't it's that simple.
Don't worry about that. I've got some good people helping me with stuff like character eligibility and I'm great at ignoring whiners, so I feel at least moderately confident in my chances of getting this thing off the ground.
