And anytime is good for me too. I'm currently sitting on nearly 2,000 scans of Surfer I was organizing for another revamp on his respect thread so we can start tonight if you're up for it(but I figure you'll want to take your time and prepare, which is fine).
BTW what kind of stipulations are you looking for? We can just do Surfer vs Supes, Surfer vs Supes as in this thread(no red sun or k-nite), or just Surfer vs Supes with no weakness exploitation, it doesn't really matter to me cause Surfer wins the majority in any of them.
I'm good with most stipulations, but Supes's appearance count is probably more than 3 times as high as Surfer's(even with Pre Crisis tossed out) and Surfer has a far more diverse powerset to demonstrate in each issue so I'll most likely reject the feat number stip unless you're talking about broad spectrum rather than repeating individual/specific feats.
ok, how bout the feat/power must've been used at least twice. I don't like off-the wall one time powers that often just may have occurred due to ignorant writing.
There's a difference between feats and powers so you'll have to come up with some examples of what you mean. If you mean that I have to show Surfer using something like offensive transmutation or internal energy manipulating twice in combat that's fine, if you mean he has to use the exact same technique in each instance it penalizes Surfer for having an open ended powerset which I'm not cool with(since his open ended powerset factors into why I see him winning anything but a h2h scenereo between the two). That's why I said it would be an ok stip in broad spectrum but not on an individual feat basis.
ie, if you show Surfer transmuting a pig and later on transmuting a horse...then its accepted he can transmute organic matter
or if you show him curving his blasts on two different (ie not in the same comic) occasions, then I'll accept it.
mostly, the 2 instance rule will apply to pre-modern surfer feats (before the 90s). feats after the 90s (or some other time we agree upon) are ok even if they occurred only once.
you have an advantage in that you can pull alot of feats from the hyperbolic age of comics, whereas for superman, those feats are not usable. I'd like to fight on equal ground.
Superman still has more appearances so it's not equal ground by any stretch of the imagination. Superman appears in pretty much every major crossover and has how many monthly titles? You think this is fair for the Surfer?
My bad. I thought you said he couldn't use anything pre 90's.

Have you people noticed that Dc comic fans, Incredible Hulk fans and Thor fans are the worse fanboys here? Superman loses the majority to each of these people
I don't think that's a good idea...it opens up room for trolling and spamming. I'd rather have a defined number of judges who I know will actually read the debate.
on second thought, I guess I would be ok with a judges wanted match.
No one else is allowed to post until the match is over. Socking is always a risk of course, but the restrictions on eligable judges keeps if from being to big of a deal.
