ONE POWA! odds thread

I'd be a judge if you guys want.

No one reads the bottom post.....

.....Or do we try to combine all strategies into one single battle?

A took out B instantly, then moves on to Target F
C, D and E all, independently, targeted A
D used an area attack and by chance kills A, C AND E in one stroke, but saves F
at this point A, B, C and E would all be dead, meaning we need to ignore the rest of their plans....

I smell a cluster f##k coming

I'm doing a fairly simple writeup:

My powers

Offensive Strategy:

- offensive ability 1
- ofensive ability 5
- etc

Defensive Strategy:

- defensive ability 1
- defensive ability 5
- etc

Conclusion/Why I win

I prefer fiction that has SOME basis in reality

😉

Well, if there are only 4/5 players, it wouldn't be THAT difficult to work out who wins.

Based on posters, I'd have assumed more writeups. People like Abhi weren't really posting, and Spawning's new, so some slack would be allowed, I guess.

But the others? Sin, Carver, Time, Celey? Nothing but talk?

unfortunately, these types of things are more often than not, always filled with mostly talk.....i doubt bw or the judges would mind. some of those pm's would be LONG and complex. i wonder when the posts will be posted for everyone to see. so that the REAL clusterfukc can really begin. lol

Sorry for taking so long on my writing, I'm hunting this especially elusive scan...

Delph, Smurph, Digi and Scoob are of course, top of the list, due to their minds. I'm hoping Smurph stacks powers, becoming a blue whale sized guy with the proportionate strength of an ant, pistol shrimp punches and bacteria replication.

Others can be a dark horse, due to their power. Some wicked applications of Time's Mags powers, for example.

Sin is actually near the bottom of mine, simply because she cannot choose her powers. She COULD get an awesome power, she could get a useless one. Example: if you tied her up wih rope, she could:

A; become Mr Fantastic and stretch out
B: become the Thing and bust out
C: become the human torch and burn her way out or;
D: develop extra fat pads to cushion her body and protect her from chafing against the ropes.

All four are equally likely, and she could equally develop a useless power as a useful one.

Of course, if Smurph by using 'animals', takes all of our powers, would that be allowed? I don't think so, as we weren't 'born' with our powers, but who knows...

Our powers aren't inherent to our species.

I'm not sure if he CAN stack his abilities.

Well, if he takes people like Vixen...

Just seen, though, that B-W specifically said no mimics. So there's that. I wonder how many people there are now?

Carver has said he's PM'd B-W for more time. You're going to send yours in a bit. That makes....6?

Who have you got as a fav in this battle?

Martian, if he hands in his writeup.

Mine will be a bit lacking, as I don't have the time to finish today, but I still feel confident that my defense is insurmountable and that my offensive is impossible to defend against 🙂

He was one of the first, IIRC.

I am VERY interested in your write up now!

I can stack my abilities, and I didn't ask if I could mimic your abilities, because I assume that's illegal as per the 'no Rogues, Mimics, Peter Petrellis' rule.

I'm feeling good about things. I think this is a power that a lot of people want to see used effectively, and at the very least I think my plan will be engaging.

If the time increases for Carver I might add a little more to mine, I kept it pretty short for clarity/simplicity

Yeah. I hope he DOESN'T get extra time, a deadline is a deadline. Plus, we've known about it for like a week plus now.

I'm done, do I PM blair with it?

Launch systems, all green!

It ended up being a short post for me as well, but them's the breaks.

Good luck to all!

There are definitely two tiers present, I think.

1. City/continent sized AoE (your Delphs, Digis, smurph, Carver, Time, Style, the speedsters)
2. Localised effects (so Max, kris - I think, Martian, Sin).

Would be interesting to see how people jump up or down tiers.
