I'd program the ring to blast 80's power ballads and blow large gusts of wind up all the girls skirts every time I walked into a club. Backlighting too...I'd need lots of backlighting. I'd have to grow out my hair first, but the time spent would be worth it.
Realistically, I'd revolutionize the planet doing fancy stuff, with a list too long to go into detail. And also set up some experiments off-world to test properties of physics/evolution/etc. But also the 80's power ballad thing.
Hey, I can't help it that the power of the ring AND Mjolnir is trumped by...

Everyone just assumes awkwardness on this site. It's this weird self-deprecating plague among anyone with a modicum of nerd-dom. It would be a moment people would remember for generations. Magnificent. Glorious. Magnorious.
Upon arriving, I'd immediately grab the hottest girl and head to the dance floor with her. We'd tear it up, I'd say "thanks for the dance" then turn and never look at her again. Panties would drop across the room.

That's what I'm saying man, Reed was spinning his arms and making a whole thing out of it.
Super-powers in the club?
Just keep it real uhuh
It wouldn't look like a super power, dude. All the ring would do is provide the music (and skirt-wind upon arrival). The hair, dancing, and inherent charisma would be my own.

Newjak, read more Green Lantern comics man. They're not even close to perfect. They are, and have been historically, an example of typically underachieving with their abilities. Your arguments do not go against every in-comic description of the green lantern rings, but you keep bringing up creativity. Kyle is the only one who is ever mentioned (and barely shown) to have any kind of creativity.You keep bringing up willpower, which I agree with. There is no way of telling how much willpower we have, it's not quantifiable and it seems to be completely random when you think about how completely ordinary many of the green lanterns are. I know a lot of people who've suffered far more hardships than all of them (pre-GL of course).
Furthermore it's not just about willpower, but PURE willpower. I might not even be able to accomplish a single thing because my willpower could be cynical, tainted by rage, etc. There's no point in discussing that any further. We have no way of knowing that. It's not what I'm trying to discuss with you.
I'm outlining some pretty damn [b]specific
ways of outperforming a lot of the lackluster stuff the green lanterns are doing, and you keep responding that regular human beings can perform on the level of comic-book green lanterns. Really? Because Hal was hailed as a genius when he thought to cover the yellow robot in mud, so they could beat it.I've told you over three times now how it is possible to have the ring educate you, set up defenses against just about everything and find many ways around having to make split-second calls, and you're just flat out ignoring it.
You're annoyed because people on a comic-book discussion forum think they can outperform people in comics? Jesus man, I don't know what to tell you. You're kind of in a place where that stuff's going to come up. And trying to claim that a bunch of people who have experience with this stuff, can't calmly in the living room of their house, with an imagination fueled power-ring (assuming willpower is there) can't outdo someone who's creating hammers and machine-guns? Buddy, to me that's just lying to yourself.
If you have the willpower and you have the ring, there's nothing you can't create as long as you can imagine it. That is what the green lantern ring is.
You had no point, no point at all.
We weren't discussing willpower.
What do you mean I had no point? Look back at my original post. Was it even directed at you? No. It actually wasn't related to your conversation.
No one said creativity was all it took, but we were talking about doing better in that area. Leave the Strawman at the door, please. [/B]

👆 Thanks. That means a lot!

A rookie with a GL ring is still fodder but a rookie with Mjolnir is still a threat and can take something close to a beating.
Also the hammer essentially has its own powerset whereas the ring is potentially limitless the only limitation being the will of the wielder or in the cases of other rings the emotional spectrum. Give the ring to someone of ultimate will and the ring dials get turned to 11 give the hammer to say Damborg or any of the other Thor Fan with operating knowledge of the hammer and it will still only deliver the potential of the hammer itself.
Like others have said
potential wise I give it to the ring
on the average Mjolnir.
How can the limitations of the rings power only be held back by the imagination of wielders, they are limited;fact if it was not limitless any ring user would and could be above abstracts, i know thats what has been stated in comics, but seriously? If you had a gl ring only limited by your imagination you would be capable then a lot more of controlling green light etc

The human mind's ability to perceive concepts on an abstract level is limited. Therefore, a non-god like being wielding the ring would be unable to attain that power.
Someone with cosmic awareness should be a beat with a ring.

Originally posted by LordofBrooklynI have to say that it's already been proven that abstracts can be theoretically be beaten by mere mortals using the rings. Case and point when Krona has all the entities and Hal busts him.... he literally had the willpower to overcome the universal concept of will. So that kinda throws that idea out the window.
