@Enki

I am pulling Rosa, she is above this Tier it seems and I'm replacing her with.....

CAPTAIN SHINRA!

I edited her out and put him in.

I figure this is okay since it is before the actual submission deadline, and Rosa was not going to get approved.


Strange way of going about things; I Don't know what gave you the idea your character wasn't going to get approved? I know Mobius asked you this;

<Snipped quote by Enki>

Who are you hearing these things from?


So Im assuming by that statement he was still going over your profile...makes it kind of hard when you re-make the character xD

The back-and-forth and constant sniping has been difficult on a few of us, especially after the Ultron shitstorm.

Enki, like myself, comes from a group of players with a collective storyline and history over fifteen years in the making, where the JRPG elements people keep poking at Enki to clarify, quantify, or cull are accepted as standard parts of the toolkit. They've been grandfathered in by now, and certain players are more steeped in the old traditions than others. I could cull my weapons, Runes, and Materia easily enough; others don't have it quite so fortunate.

I request patience and understanding, if any can be spared. The original Rosa profile is still available if it's requested, but Enki talks to us about the progress he's making over PMs with Mobius, and that progress has been slow and somewhat fraught. Ergo, a less objectionable profile offered to, as they say in Cancoun, "GET IT OVER WITH ALREADY".

Where are you getting information from that says otherwise? We've been patient as possible. Are you and Enki privy to some information that I am not aware of or that you shouldn't have access to?

I'm getting information from Enki, who's expressed frustration with the process. Wherever that frustration is coming from on his end, I don't know. All I've seen are snippets here and there of PMs he's received.

i'd like to think it's obvious at this point that I'm not here to stir up shit. I'm simply doing my job as the front man for my group. Enki's having a rough time of it lately and not just here, so I figured I'd step in and explain, take a load off of him. That's what I do for my buddies. I'm not trying to piss in your coffee or spy on your clubhouse or whatever, I'm trying to help a buddy of mine have some fun here.

Can we agree on that?

I am interested in the other stuff I read up their about your character's JRPG elements to your build

The fact you and Enki are saying some weird specific things make me a little suspicious of the information given, but I am not accusing you of being an antagonist. I know what you are doing, and I would be doing the same if I were in your position; but, I am not in your position. I am in my position. I ask questions for answers. You guys have a way of playing over there, but as long as you are over here, in TZDL, you have to abide by the tournament standards.

I would think that's rather obvious, and I'm not sure why you would think anyone was planning to do anything otherwise. Hence why the sheets offered have been tailored specifically for this event and are not the ones normally used. Any paranoid assumptions to the contrary, I guarantee you that anyone from this little band of brigands will be following your rules to the letter, and we have ways of policing our own if they don't.

Thanks for your work thus far, here's to an entertaining tourney!

Submitted my character. I tried to be more detailed than I usually am, and the language may have suffered from it.

Hello, LeeRoy, my name is Adrian. As a proud employee of Target retailer, I believe firmly in family values, and with Mother's Day being not-too-far off, please allow me to assist you with providing her with the perfect Mother's Day "gardening" gift.



The Ergo D-handle Steel Shovel features an ergonomic design that makes it easier to grip, carry and use. The welded steel construction is far more durable than wood and won’t flex like fiberglass. An angled D-handle keeps your wrist in a neutral position to reduce strain, and a sharpened boron steel shovel blade cuts dense soil and thick roots easily. A foot platform helps maximize force to break up hardened soil clods, and a mid grip and teardrop-shaped shaft provide exceptional comfort and control. The powder-coated steel resists rust and offers easy cleaning and a hang hole allows for convenient storage in your shed or garage.

Protective Qualities: Son-resistant
Blade Dimensions: 51.5 inches L x 9.13 inches W
Dimensions:Fucktown 7 inches L x 9.13 inches W x 51.5 inches H
Weight: 4.86 pounds
Warranty Description: Deathtime Limited Warranty
Assembly Details: no assembly required
TCIN: 51111511
UPC: 046561131418

The only real profile sheet tailored for the tournament was done by DLL himself so far. The rest of the lucha group, save you and everett, have had pending on them. It wouldn't be fair to make that an indication of your group, but rather a little disingenuous on your part. The reality is that his comment was referencing aspects to things not spoken to directly to Enki (that I'm aware of). The more in-depth of those suggest he, and the rest of you, are given a little more or little less information than necessary or permitted. When DLL spoke about grandfatering specific stuff your group does (FFL's YGG and so on) it was when I decided to say "you guys do your own but not here" because some of the exact problems stem from either universal "realm energies" like Ether or ambiguity in unspecified objects. This actually validates my point.

We don't adhere to "multiverse" principles or "realm" energies or whatever.

So when entering a tournament of this free-form nature: you must explain your abilities a bit more thoroughly and understand it may not operate as widely as it does back at your home site(s). This is why Dias's profile has an addendum noting TZDL's version of his Ether Burn.

Uh, no. They're all modification of existing characters to fit into your ruleset for the tournament. Hence why they're tailored for this specific use. Not sure why you'd think otherwise.

Fully aware of such a thing. Hence why DLL said for some of the characters it was more difficult to customize because those particular traits are very much inherent in the makeup of said character. Hence the asking for patience with getting them just how you want for your tournament.

I really feel compelled to make jokes at Dias's expense that are utterly unrelated to his profile now. Because it's Dias and it's been so damn long since I've been able to make fun of him.

To be fair, the point of 'Ether', as our particular crew uses the term, is actually to allow for greater interplayability between characters. If Player A, for example, uses a system of 'Ki' as his personal energy, with a bunch of ways to manipulate, attack with, and defend against Ki, then that's cool. Say he goes up against Player B, who uses a system of 'Prana' as his personal energy, with manipulations, attacks, and defenses for Prana.

The way you seem to be arguing it, these two would be completely unable to defend against each other's abilities and whoever shoots first wins, because 'Ki' doesn't interact with 'Prana'. Luchalliance players, however, have adopted a system whereby just about all mystical/supernatural phemonenon fall under the broad heading of 'Ether', and in which any/all users of ethereal abilities are able to match with any/all other users of ethereal abilities. Player A's Ki-based defenses and manipulations work against Player B's Prana-based manipulations and defenses, and vice versa. The system is intended to universalize applicability between different schools of magic or energy manipulation to better facilitate play.

This concept is so fundamental to how we play that I'm not actually surprised nobody ever explained it, we just assume it without thinking about it, but nobody here is trying to get one over on the rest of the tournament. Our stuff works on you because you're a body and that's what it's targeted at, but in turn all of your stuff also works on us, because they're ethereal abilities and they interact with our ethereal abilities in the way they're meant to.

Because that is literally the point of Fair Play.
