It is theoretically stupid to mention a rare exotic feat as it will happen in the forum fight.
Especially since you have been proven to have ZERO credibility in your interpretations as you have been cited to mislead ppl in many, many occasions.

You fail. Try again.

It was simply that he was merely traveling there from his body.
What is important is how something is being PORTRAYED AT THE EXACT MOMENT when the feat occurred. It was portrayed/drawn written as being in the same location for this SPECIFIC feat. Thus making your BFR rules-lawyering completely inapplicable as the rules state LOCATION.
You using "logic" while basing it on an obviously biased and ignorant assumption (something you always seem to do)of "writer's intention" is laughable. You never even read the comic, so what gives you the credibility (another thing you lack completely) to actually insert an interpretation of the writer's intention?
You fail. Try again.
Hell, this argument is irrelevant as you can't even CITE THE RULE THAT MAKES THIS BFR.

And you are hypocritical here since some of your arguments were discussing the movie as well.
You're an idiot. Check the damned rules and the DAMNED FORUM HEADING before opening your mouth (or for the purposes of the forum: typing something). This is bordering on ridiculous now and if you can't see the absolute stupidity of your above post then God help you.

Here is an example of your double standard logic:
-For the Astral feat to be valid, it has to be performed SPECIFICALLY that way multiple times with scans.
-Dr M can teleport others apart and I don't need scans to prove this. Just deductive reasoning.
The only way to DEAL with double standard debaters like you is to throw your logic back into your face so that you would be forced to chose w/c position you would stand with (therefore invalidating an entire set of arguments that you made).
Besides, it's fun ridiculing you as you fail time and again.

SS can't shoot blasts faster than light so Dr. M would have either duplicated himself or simply teleported SS apart right after the bell well before SS gets to him.
You have not provided any FTL reflexes feats that Dr M has performed and repairing a TV is simply one showing (w/c by YOUR definition is PIS) that wasn't even occurring at FTL speeds (meaning, it is still much slower than the Surfer's reaction times).
You fail. Try again.

You have yet to prove that Dr M has the reaction time to do anything before being one-shotted-dispersed by the Surfer.

Reactions =/= Speed of movement. I can have greater reactions times than you but by the time I get to you, you will already be prepared with something.
You mentioned that repairing the TV was a form of FTL reflexes, I pointed out that this was a stupid assumption and even IF (BIG IF) this was true, Surfer FAR outperforms Dr M in this area.

My argument is that his physiology might be different from humans as it takes amount of energy (kinetic impact, heat, etc) and not shown physical trauma that can cause him to be KOd.

Your argument is faulty since you assume that since this is comics anything is allowed to happen, even if it is logically impossible. Well I tell you sir, nothing is allowed to happen if it is logically impossible. Even if we want it to. Logically impossible = False (or self contradiction).
Surfer's durability and physiology functions differently from human durability and physiology. With all the facts that has been provided thru showings (ability to survive being cut apart, being blown to bits and being impaled as well as bending his body around to remove harpoons, not needing sustenance or air, etc.), this seems to be the case.
You're trying to misrepresent truths again by creating a false analogy.
The logical possibility exists and it is backed by on-panel evidence. You refusing to accept it is another thing.
The denial is strong in this one.

This is the problem with you, h1. You present opinion and assumption (w/ no proof) and deem it "proof" to mislead ppl. Anyone reading this discussion for the first time would assume that you've ALREADY provided proof when all you have in your defense (of the Dr M nonfeat that you're trying to push down everyone's throat) is PURE CONJECTURE.

All you have is a desperate adherence to the EXACT minimum requirements of a nonexistent rule in the hopes that you can exclude an argumentation that you cannot refute. A desperate tactic oftentimes used by desperate lawyers.
Here's a little tip to help you debate better: When rules-lawyering, it is best to provide the rule first.

I believe most of your mistakes are from ignorance and the sheer tenacity of your replies stem from your unwillingness/fear of having to admit that you were proven wrong.
Funny thing is, Ignorance is one of your most admitted qualities in these forums. Ignorance of the rules, Ignorance of the characters, and ignorance of logic.
What I pointed out was that even thru the failure of your logic (probably borne out of pure ignorance), you would rather cling to ANY kind of loophole in the hopes that you somehow validate your claim or at least throw enough doubt around the facts by bogging down the debate thru waves and waves of weak logic (and then demanding the other party to prove you wrong countless times instead of providing the evidence to prove yourself right just once to end the debate).
This a sign of immaturity or cowardice. I happen to believe you are currently suffering from both.

As it is, even when you're proven wrong (such as when you FAILED to understand Superman's starbreaker scan by not reading the scan properly), you automatically resort to crappy logic (it was spoken "figuratively"!!!) in the hopes of diverting attention away from your mistake.
This leads me to believe that you would do anything, say anything, type anything simply to avoid being proven wrong (to the point of misleading ppl).

No. They're not current rules as they're not posted on the board that outlines the current rules. You just can't come here, point out SPECIFIC rules that require SPECIFIC circumstances when those very rules don't exist anymore then hope to debate with your own interpretations of it. That's completely moronic.
What? Soul feats having nothing to do with BEING ABLE TO GO TO THE ASTRAL FIELD ON A MOMENT'S NOTICE. The conclusion doesn't follow.Nice strawman. Actually, no, that was pretty bad. Or is your english so bad that you can't even interpret simple arguments anymore?
He mentions the word soul to describe the nature of his powers (the astral attack) making the feat (the astral attack) parallel in nature with his other soul feats.

The scene was only shown when SS was leaving his body. The scene wasn't shown when SS was attacking the creature. Clearly SS left out of his body and traveled to the Astral Field. And this is assuming I agree with your "we see the scenery thus it isn't leaving the battlefield" logic (which I still don't).

Am I? Well you must be too since you were arguing the movie all along too. And all others must be too since they argue movie related feats for all Dr. M threads. No need to bash though.
You're an idiot. Check the damned rules and the DAMNED FORUM HEADING before opening your mouth (or for the purposes of the forum: typing something). This is bordering on ridiculous now and if you can't see the absolute stupidity of your above post then God help you.
What does this have to do with you going against my argument and then using it at a future date? You are avoiding trying to respond to my argument with an irrelevant one of your own. You might be committing the "you do it too fallacy". Just because someone else did it doesn't make your argument logically sound if you do it.
This is yet another instance where you're wrong, h1. You see, you're what ppl call a double-standard debater. You apply one set of rules for one character and then apply a COMPLETELY different set of rules for another.Here is an example of your double standard logic:
-For the Astral feat to be valid, it has to be performed SPECIFICALLY that way multiple times with scans.
-Dr M can teleport others apart and I don't need scans to prove this. Just deductive reasoning.
Now to defend. My argument wasn't a double standard. SS leaving to go to the Astral field while in battle is an exotic feat in which doesn't commute from his other main feats. My argument is more like, "If Dr. M can teleport others and he can control subatomic particles, all as his MAIN power, then he can teleport molecules.
Ko only means to be unconscious. Otherwise, it would be similar to a trapping BFR (which is 3 minutes by the way).[quote]b[]
There are many definitions of a KO. One is the literal definition for "knockout", but with regards to the acronym ("KO"😉 itself (w/c was taken for boxing), the main definition is when one loses consciousness OR when one is incapacitated from injury sufficiently to be unable to fight (w/c is far more applicable for forum debates).Yet ANOTHER attempt to misrepresent my reply. Or just simply complete ignorance from not reading my reply. This makes this whole line of your argument irrelevant.
We are not talking about speed but reactions. Dr. M doesn't have to be fast if he can mentally react in the time it takes a light speed attack to get to him. He needs not to move to activate his powers.
You have not provided any FTL reflexes feats that Dr M has performed and repairing a TV is simply one showing (w/c by YOUR definition is PIS) that wasn't even occurring at FTL speeds (meaning, it is still much slower than the Surfer's reaction times).
You are correct. Knowing what will happen is not the same as being able to stop something. That is why I showed he does have at least light speed reactions (the ability to process a thought before a beam of light gets to you from battle distance).
Knowing what would happen is not the same as being able to react to it or being able to do something about it.You have yet to prove that Dr M has the reaction time to do anything before being one-shotted-dispersed by the Surfer.
Irrelevant. As average showings will still invalidate the Astral field stuff, whether I agree or disagree.
So, now you agree that the Astral feat is valid?
Irrelevant. It doesn't matter if SS's reaction times are far above's Dr. M. All that matters is that SS has no attack that can get to Dr. M before he can make an action. Remember he witnesses things that happen so fast they are said not to have happened at all.When did I ever mention Surfer's travel speed in my previous post?
You mentioned that repairing the TV was a form of FTL reflexes, I pointed out that this was a stupid assumption and even IF (BIG IF) this was true, Surfer FAR outperforms Dr M in this area.
It is damage that causes KO, nothing more. Something had to be disconnected or damaged as to how he can be koed. Separating him to pieces will produce this separation to a greater extent.
You should really ask yourself that question a lot more.Your logic is that Surfer has been KOd by powerful strikes before even when he has not been shown to be physically maimed (by artwork) by such attacks and thus attacks that can cause him to be dispersed/seemingly maimed (by artwork) is not survivable.
My argument is that his physiology might be different from humans as it takes amount of energy (kinetic impact, heat, etc) and not shown physical trauma that can cause him to be KOd.
It is asinine and logically faulty to believe that someone can be koed with a blow yet can't be when they are separated into pieces. This is very ridiculous.
I already pointed out the logical possibilities.Surfer's durability and physiology functions differently from human durability and physiology. With all the facts that has been provided thru showings (ability to survive being cut apart, being blown to bits and being impaled as well as bending his body around to remove harpoons, not needing sustenance or air, etc.), this seems to be the case.

Seriously, you can't cite rules that no longer exist and expect it to carry in a debate. You MIGHT try and convince me thru logic and your DEEP understanding of the Surfer's history that it is indeed PIS. But you don't read Surfer comics. So you have none of that.
Without the word of the rules specifying anything as a basis of your argument, all you have is your opinion on its interpretation.
If you had any credibility, you might be able to convince me of your interpretation. Sadly, you have none of that, too.
All you have now are: Assumptions. Biased, misleading interpretations. Denial. And this is the story of your life.
You seriously already lost here. You need to concede this point.

Of course he can, he's done it on-panel. The point of my argument is that it's NOT PIS for the Surfer to affect the Astral Plane as he's done it multiple times in his history as shown by his multiple Astral/Soul feats.
That and the fact that you can't cite any rules to support you PIS argument.

Yes it does. Clearly you didn't even look at the scan. Look at the creature's hand as the Surfer is about to attack it.

This is the problem with you. You don't scrutinize the evidence THEN post trash assumptions borne of utter ignorance to mislead ppl then shift the burden of proof to the other party just so that you are given more room to post more trash.
I guess not having to worry about having any credibility whatsoever is a luxury you can afford.

Unfortunately, I'll have to concede the fact that I based my arguments off YOUR accounts of the feats (cuz, well, like I said, even I get mislead by you at times, you're pretty good at misleading ppl after all.). Admittedly, I am guilty of being gullible enough to believe your accounts.
But seeing now as you're basing your argumentations off the movie, I must now facepalm, shake my head and point you to the direction of the nearest comic store.
Buy the comic, read the comic, understand the comic, scan some pages THEN come back here and debate. I tire of debating with the ignorant.

Heck, go down a few sentences, you'll see another one of your double standards in play, yet again.

I'm not doing it because I have a specific stance and want it to prove it using your logic. My goal here is to point out YOUR logical flaws (as I find it quite entertaining to do so) and how it applies to the opposite side given similar standards just to prove to you that you're a hypocrite. 🙂

You cannot argue ability of two completely different powers.
Let me use YOU type of logic here:
-Wolverine has regeneration.
-Wolverine has adamantium claws.
-Both are within Wolverine's history as main powers.
Thus it can be argued that Wolverine can regenerate his adamantium claws.
Without proof, you cannot VOMIT assumptions like this.

Incapacitation by trapping has also been considered an possible and acceptable victory condition in these forums. Such as Thanos' force block.

Surfer travels at far faster than light.

Do the math. If one can move a gazillion particles in exact order in less than a second then how fast of reaction time do you think that is?
My GOD do you know how idiotic and desperate you sound here? We don't know how Dr M's matter manipulation works so we don't know if it takes speed to fix a TV or simply a level of mental awareness/multitasking.
The TV did NOT explode at light speed thus you cannot make the inference that it was even CLOSE to FTL. COMPLEXITY of performed actions has nothing to do with reaction speeds.
Otherwise, Surfer would have the reaction speed so far above FTL that it's not even funny.

Pure, unadulterated hypocrisy.
You see how you are a double standards debater now?
Also, you don't even read the Surfer (I'm beginning to doubt that you even read comics at all). How the hell can you even have the audacity to state what his "average historical showings are".
Just admit that you're a double standards debater so we can move on.

You've never proven that Dr M has FTL reflexes. Repairing the TV is not FTL reflexes and I would thank you not to make misleading statements such as this unless you have conclusive proof for the benefit of the other posters reading this debate.
It would actually be nice for you to actually PROVE a point before FIRST making biased, ignorant and completely misleading statements.

Just because Dr M can manipulate matter does not infer that he can teleport with the same level of accuracy, capability and control.
HELL, you've yet to PROVE that your knowledge of the NATURE of Dr M's teleportation allows him to apply the ability in the method that you claim it can. Which you never have.

Well, if you can ARGUE that it is within the character's history (due to your extensive knowledge of the character and his history) to do so and supply on-panel evidence that the character was able to perform it (even once). Then why not?
FYI, I've always believed that Superman has planetary-level strength all along. It's your own logic that disqualifies his feats and puts doubt on his on-panel showings proving this fact.
That and I find it fun throwing back your own fail logic onto your face. I find it very entertaining.

Incorrect. Both on your interpretation of what I said as well as the entire line of reasoning itself.
Firstly, I stated that you didn't provide ANY evidence whatsoever. But scans and issue numbers (seeing as we're debating COMICS) are the most concrete evidence you can supply. What you CANNOT use are unproven logical deductions and state them as irrefutable evidence to mislead ppl.
This is an example of yet another misleading generalization borne out of sheer ignorance.
Also, logic cannot be used as evidence unless you have evidence supporting the logic. Otherwise, you suffer from Logical Fallacies of Insufficient Evidence.
Here is something I copy/pasted for your benefit:
One of the things that can undermine logic is basing an argument on insufficient evidence. There are several errors that one can make related to insufficient evidence as one chooses evidence to bolster an argument, and the following fallacies of insufficient evidence occur so frequently that they are named.
Hasty Generalization. A hasty generalization bases a conclusion on too little evidence.
Fallacy of Exclusion. Leaving out evidence that would lead to a different conclusion is called the fallacy of exclusion.
Fallacy of Oversimplification. In this fallacy, some aspects of an issue -- generally more subtle ones -- and their ramifications are not explored.
Do you get it now?

All of which you never proved and all of where I had far more solid on-panel evidence proving MY point.
But thank you for proving my opinion of you.

What I pointed out was that even thru the failure of your logic (probably borne out of pure ignorance), you would rather cling to ANY kind of loophole in the hopes that you somehow validate your claim or at least throw enough doubt around the facts by bogging down the debate thru waves and waves of weak logic (and then demanding the other party to prove you wrong countless times instead of providing the evidence to prove yourself right just once to end the debate).This a sign of immaturity or cowardice. I happen to believe you are currently suffering from both.

This thread has turned into the worst thread on this entire site, and that's saying something.

Hm. I'll have to concur. This "debate" has gone far enough.

I think this debate has gone far enough. I've had my fun and the walls of texts aren't really serving any real purpose anymore.
My solution? Let's BOTH post our closing remarks and let the forum decide the outcome. The closing remarks will simply outline how we think the scenario will play out and why we think our presented evidences are valid.
That or we take this to Battlezone.
If you want, I'll even go first.
Fair enough?

Also, "evidence".
I highly doubt h1's even read Watchmen, no need go that far as to say he's presented 'evidence'.Yes please. Battlezone it.
Agreed.
Well, h1. Do you believe your stance enough to Battlezone this?
I'm game.
