*thinks to himself should I or should I not say anything*
Well..just imo, based on my understanding of physics...
An infinitely thin 2d line will pass through non-infinitely 3d dense matter no matter what, since it will never be able to interact and hit something non-infinitely small. There is no difference when interacting with 3d matter between 1d and 2d when one of the dimensions [thinness] is infinite. If the 3d matter stops the 2d infinitely thin line, it will stop a 1d infinitely thin, because it means it has infinite density/no gaps.

I didn't agree with my rulings too, all my best scans was saved for final post that was suited to deal with phil's strategies and it just got brushed offI don't think I'd win but I just want people take more time to write better ruling posts
that's why i wanted 5 judges
...
Congrats to Phil and Mutant - this should be an interesting final round.
I’ll get my judgment in for Abhi/Martian today.

To say I am salty/bitter/sour about it is putting it mildly, lol.I showed infinitely sharp attacks getting blocked. Atom never showed he could become infinitely small. His one defense showed the guy wasn't even microscopic when he faced Atom. Infinite is infinite, lmao. Supermutant didn't even make the point about infinitely sharp =/= infinitely small, so Smurph can't use that point to base his judgement on it.
Then Dambo's judgement was......he said I relied on that scan, then without any counter, said Atom goes where he pleases.
Without proof.
Ah well.
I move that Smurph's rulings be ignored.

Results of abhi and Martian's match have been posted(sorry Smurph, I know you said you were already working on a write-up.) So the first round is concluded.Final will be:
[/B]
[b]Philosophia (O.M.A.C. and Dr. Polaris) |vs.| Supermutant (Stardust and The Atom) |vs.| Martian_mind (Loki and DC Atlas)
Credit to Pr for judging all three matches.
Originally posted by DarkSaint85I just don't think your scan proved the point that you needed it to prove. My job wasn't to accept all of your points unless Supermutant argued against them (which he did).

I get feeling salty about judges though. Happy to chat more via PM if you or Mr. Mind want to argue about it further. I don't think rehashing everything in this thread is fair though.

Here is the thing.
Supermutant NEVER argues against my scans, using the point you used in your ruling. To wit:
DS made the most out of a couple scans, but all the Royal Flush Gang scan proves is that John can block something infinitely thin and sharp, not something infinitely small. It’s the difference between blocking a two-dimensional plane/line, and blocking a singular dot.
Nowhere does Supermutant argue this. If so, please quote it. Supermutant's arguments against my shield were:
That the RF Gang were jobbers.
That Atom has blocked a 2D character before.
That is was an 'energy field' not a shield.
My counters being:
It was BATMAN'S words, not the RF Gang's
Atom's 2D character was NOWHERE near infinite (and even showed the comparison)
This was a completely new argument that was introduced in his summary post, which isn't allowed.
But YOUR argument, that 2d line =/= 2d points, was not argued by Supermutant. Hence, inadmissible.
There was no new argument. I was just disagreeing with your interpretation of your own scan, which you repeatedly emphasized:
John has stopped things that are infinitely small. It doesn’t even matter that Ray has shrunk into other dimensions, or smaller than photons etc. I hope people can understand the ramifications of this scan!!
my point being that the shield has blocked infinitely sharp (and hence, infinitely small) attacks, as per the great BatGod’s (NOT the jobbers, lmao) words.
Against my shield, which as per BatGod’s words, stop infinitely small attacks
You kept arguing that Batman qualified John’s shields as being immune to infinitely small attacks, but the scan you provided as proof said “infinitely thin and sharp”, not “infinitely small”. So you wanted the judges to agree that a shield that could block an infinitely thin attack must also block all infinitely small attacks. I didn’t agree, and I explained why.
Based only on what was posted and argued, I think it would be harder to keep out Ray Palmer than it is to block that 2D slash from the Royal Flush Gang. It wasn’t about a particular argument from Supermutant - your evidence was just a bit weak, imo.
