The water pressure would have pushed you into the spot realm, then.

Not really. Head, and hands are all that I need. I could have created three different spots (above me)...water doesnt usually move up. They move like a current...

and it really doesnt matter, I already won, let it go 😬

I have to use Jamie in order to use the tech as equipment. And before you say he wouldn't know how, he's learned a few things about the armor, and the AI would probably think of it.

I'm just asking, because if this kind of thing is going to be allowed, then I think you're setting a bad precedent and giving those of us with tech too much of an advantage. ❌

Um yeah I know that

Your not the only one who reads blue beetle 😈

I was just saying that Jaime Holds the scrab back from its full potential

and the scrabs full potential is>> then the caps 😉 imo

but if you have Jaime along with the scrab it fine

Darth! I need answers on the Emma issue... It's driving me insane!

Ok KK I've thought about it quite a bit and this is what I came up with...yes, technically it was POSSIBLE that you would have been able to pull it off. The case you SHOULD have made, was that the technical knowledge involved in that feat wasn't knowledge involving tp, it was knowledge of the psi blocker's defense system. Since you had full access to the characters range of powers, you WOULD automatically be able to send through laser waves(that's a feat), the question would have been whether or not you knew enough about the psi shielding to know how to circumvent it.

Why would he hold back? He's basically fighting for his life and he knows he has to kill or subdue whoever his enemy is in this tournament. Everyone is basically going all out/ bloodlusted, so no holding back. 😈

Okay. So I AM pressumed to have the same skill level as Emma, right?

90% of a telepath's power comes through experience and skill. Taking away exp and skill is putting another cap on it. And why do people have to be so shady when they answer questions? A simple yes or no is far more effective.

Let me put it this way. Say I faced Blair and won, or faced you and won. I could download the technical specifications of your tech and weapons, and incorporate some of the tech into myself via that knowledge of how to make it. Now, is that fair? Hell no. Getting IM's combat data would give me a huge advantage. 🙁

nuh-uh. THAT's illegal. just like i can't use the kimoyo to say, for instance, hack stark's files and add stark tech to my amalgam. THAT is power-copying and illegal.

But literally taking tech with you isn't?

This is where the problems come in.

As NJ brought up if someone copies Spiral's skills they gain magic. It comes purely from her skill at using it and isn't a power.

exactly. and that is the issue under vote. but dl'ing tech data is fine. i just can't use that data to add power to my amalgam. i can use it as i would use the internet though to find out things about my opponents provided indy and dhii are capable of hacking into whatever source of info the kimoyo finds -- because i can't use the card to actually HACK either -- just point me to the info.

i didn't TAKE anthing, sc. i dl'd the DATA from the card and left the card behind.

Which gives you access to something that you never would have been abe to find normally.

😬

As a strategy I have no problem with that but as a matter of practicality the issuses that will come up if we allow anything of this sort are just too much of a hassle.

wait...explain what you mean?

You cannot leave the battlefield (which is the same place during prep according....to someone)

I asked Darth about it, and he said I could not physically leave the place I was in "fully". So I can spot my way there, leaving some part of my body still in the prep area. Thats how he told it to me

it was my impression that we could do whatever we wanted during prep -- including leaving. how can i be leaving a battlefield when the battle itself as NOT started?

i'm sure there was a post about doing whatever you want in the 10 min span.

you did it when you gave an alternative planning to spotting half yourself to the workshop. i had no problem with that as i think according to the rules you COULD just leave during prep and come back before the 10 mins.

am i wrong with that rule goob?

Semantics won't save you here 😛

It's the site of an impending battle and no less a battlefield than a place where there is fighting taking place.

of course -- that's why i said i was stronger -- i had more knowledge.

i still don't get the 'hassles'. an advantage? yes? but don't forget--i can only do this because of the amalgam i made -- indy's technopathy made the full body work (also seomething no one else has), and spiral's mind can access the dhii body's mind/database. isn't meshing to ensure advantages sort of what this whole thing was about? 😕

it's not semantical . . . the battle hasn't started.

and if you're right, can you show the rule? i ALREADY ran it by goob, and he never said anything about it . . .

nor did digi (a judge)

or Ill (a judge)

. . . .
