[quote=BKburke] The spores never appeared out of nowhere. Since the wood clone has been watching the entire time, he already did his spore technique. They were always there. Marashi does that to watch over people. I'm not making stuff up on the spot. Because those spores are actually zetsu cells, they actually can morph through the ground and other solid objects to get to people. The one hand sign is to indicate the activation of the spores because the spores remain dormant until activated. I mean, you could try and suicide marashi but that won't do jack. Marashi had been around along time, you really think he is gonna be careless? The only way to deactivate the explosives with lightning style which is something Marashi doesn't have. Sorry you don't like what Marashi did bit he has the abilities to do it. [/quote]Unless you stated in the IC that you planted them which I don't see(Currently, still checking just to make sure) then it's the same as making stuff up on the spot. For a char that can move pretty much anywhere, almost being everywhere at once should state when they put the spores down. Not to mention your char is the oldest in the rp, meaning that he could've planted them everywhere in the world over the course of his lifespan. Basically allowing you to auto hit almost anyone in the rp without any preparation or reasonable explanation. Use of the Spore technique in this manner is nothing shy of Gm, especially since most caught will have no way of escaping this move. People were concerned about some Uchiha capable of having the EMS when they should've been worrying about the second strongest antagonist currently in the Naruto manga(Which is Zetsu).
