Team Tournament Information and Discussion Thread

Started by Blair Wind125 pages

Your going around the subject and not answering a simple question. Is it really that hard to do?

Does Spartan have Voids other abilities? Yes or No?

Its not gonna kill you to answer and in all fairness I need to know what to expect to some degree. 😬

I'm sorry, but you are the one whose team has a character with a pouch from which he can draw ANYTHING he wants, yes? There's a list of every conceivable thing Spartan could do with Void's powers, right there ont he other page of this thread.

But at least its been stated in pages that he can actually grab whatever he needs.

Why the beating around the bush? Has spartan NOT shown to be able to do the things Void was capabable of. Is that the truth of the matter? I would really love to know.

I dont care whats conceivable at this point. I want to know if it was ever shown that he could do those things. I can then actually mount some sort of debate depending on that. Because his run was had wasnt it? According to Wiki, there was three Void hosts and Spartan was the second. So you should know the answer.....why arnt you telling me is the bigger question.

Hey, Black Bolt can do at least six or seven things you'd NEVER find on ANY online bio written about him. Does that mean that, even if I have scans to back up a claim about him, they can't be used? At least with Spartan, there ARE no surprises.

Yes BB does have a defined powerset and power range. What is being asked is simply how much of the Void Powers has Spartan shown other than Teleportation.
How long as Spartan had this upgrade and does Spartan still have it? Basic questions to help in determining just if this character is within the limits or is the power range to Vague to allow in. we are not asking for specific feats just an acknowledgement as to whether or not Spartan with the void powers is defined enough to allow in.

Why does it matter? You have, at your fingertips, a list of EVERY SINGLE THING he could possibly do with her powers. You'll have to wait to see which powers he does and doesn't have until the debates start.

Mmm... he's had it for four years, I think? Five? And he had her powers up until this year, when he made an appearance in Majestic's current series.

Actually, he has the most WELL-defined powerset out of just about anyone in this tournament. There is, literally, nothing he can do in this tournament that you can't see online.

Thats crap Khell. Sorry but its crap and you know it. All Im getting from you is that he MIGHT have some of Voids powers. Everyone has a bio on powers, and we know what to generally expect because they have HAD those powers for a while, and the bios at least mention them. THIS is a different case in that the Void MIGHT OR MIGHT NOT have given Spartan the same powers the orb gave the girl.

yet again, crap 😬

Khell, they are asking you fair questions. The least you could do is give them some sort of boundaries. I mean, it's not like they're the only ones who want to know.

And I'm saying I've given boundaries. Look, what are the three possibilities here? One, he has all the powers listed on the Void bio. Okay, so what? They're all limited to within this tourney's boundaries. Two, he ONLY got her teleportation power. Well, that's even better for you, right? So why worry about it? Third is that he's somewhere in between. He got some of those powers, but not all. Yet again, so long as you KNOW what they all are, why does it matter to you? It just means he's got less power than the first scenario, which is good for everyone else. I'm not seeing the problem here.

I don't really see how it's different from leo asking to be able to use tricks his characters never have before. Khell can't do anything not found in bios.

I PM'd him. We have some time before Khell's match since he's the 2nd week....we'll get to the bottom of it.

And yet they are undefined the list has no real indication of how strong her powers were. the bio even states th.at they are only using one interpretation of what she is. we also have no idea how much more Spartan took these powers whether he he made them stronger. It is generally a good idea that when you give a bio of someone you give a list of what that person was capable of doing with those powers. Not what someone else could do with them and what Spartan was able to do. we have no idea where Spartan is at right now.

Had BW and I given the same type of answers to people about Shaman he would have been banned on the spot. we had to define even though his bio pretty much tells you everything he can do as well. we are just asking for you to have to do the same.

I think you guys are pretty much beating a dead horse.

Anything Khells claims Spartan can do MUST be backed up by scans.

It's that simple.

Anything less won't be taken into account.

It's not like he can just make things up and it's going to fly. He has to prove his statements.

If you want that to be the case, we'd need defined lists of all of Shaman's spells, as well as the full scope and range of the abilities of a GL Ring, the Power Cosmic, Black Bolt and Captain Atom defined before we begin this tournament because every possible feat they could perform is not defined by their bios.

Basically what Ill said, but here's the deal.

It's only been confirmed that he has her teleporting ability, though the power absorbtion was never fully defined. The teleporting will be assumed (and she isn't beyond Flash...that one scan was an anomaly...she's been knocked around before by people much slower) and anything else Khell finds scans of Spartan using (that doesn't violate the limits) he is welcome to use.

But like Ill said, without scans or concrete issue #'s, it'll be suicide with the judges to try and make stuff up.

So let's be quiet about this now. It's settled, and Spartan isn't breaking the limits.

Yeah, you're all spending way too much mental energy on Spartan. Beleive me when I say that, for my first match especially, you should be MUCH more concerned with what Black Bolt can do. 😈

Screw Khell (not really). How about finding a partner for AJ?

Sam's been on. Whether or not they'll work cohesively remains to be seen, but he's been around.

That goes for the other characters as well, not just Spartan.

As was said before, you're granted to extrapolate a manner of attack based on your abilities, but you must provide enough evidence to make the scenario you present viable.

Scans will be a valuable commodity this time around. Using hyperbole and quotes from other characters stating occurances won't.

For example, a scan of Uatu the Watcher saying "Surfer's blast was powerful destroy a planet" won't cut it if your saying Surfer can fire a planet buster. A actual picture of Surfer's blast destroying a planet will.

You're going to need depicted accounts of an act, or a VERY closely related account.

So why is AJ's partner listed as a question mark?
