[quote=@Alexei] That's still not giving an actual reaction time. Just stating you can react quickly means little to nothing in T1. Even if you had a listed time, it would be a negligible thing. In T1 all characters are the same in physical capability. If not, Eiji could literally tear through Kull. Given that his musculature is crafted from interwoven cabon nanotubes, called bucky paper. If we want to go through the fluff in a character sheet as if it means anything. On the mention of reading body language, I find the concept laughable in the way I have seen it used. So far it might as well be highly predictive precognition. Kull has consistently dodged everything and in RM that is simply a deal breaker. Its unrealistic and to the point of metagaming. [/quote] No, they aren't. That's absolutely, incredibly wrong. Stats DO matter, that's why they exist in T1. Not all characters have the same physical ability either. That statement is immensely false. Just because I actually state the physical ability of one of my characters doesn't mean someone who has a vague profile can match every pound he can lift or every meter he can run. No, no, no. [quote=@Alexei] No its actually worse than not stating it at all. It is incredibly vague, which alliws you to manipulate it as much as someone without it. Only difference is that you can point to your profile, and pretend it says anything of real value in regards to it. So no, in write fighting the profile is not God. It is only ever useful in regards to spells. Physical ability is pointless. Especially when your charactee can combine strength and speed with no trade off. Which isn't realistic. You specifically stated a vague descriptor. Unless you want to lay out hard data its useless. [/quote] Nope. I was more precise in terms of stated stats than my opponent. I'm not insinuating anything negative by stating that, it's a simple fact. More information is just that, more information. It does not create more room to be vague, it minimizes it. I have no idea where you're drawing these far out conclusions from. Why are you here? Where are you from, that you think physical capacity has no bearing in RM? It's outrageous to even think that. [quote=@Alexei] That's pretty fast. I have to call shenanigans. It might not be complicated but less than a second is also vague. How much less than a second? How fast is your opponent moving in relative to you? If these are not defined clearly by either side that is an exercise in uselessness. All the time yes, but irl there are certain factors at play not at all present in text based combat. Especially, as I stated, when such is ill defined. [/quote] Again, I defined my profile and actions with meticulous care. Note that you keep insisting on the value of "a few seconds", which matches "less than a second" in terms of your implied intentional vagueness. The difference isn't negligible, it's just so miniscule that I'm implying that Kull will be ready to hit his opponent before she closes the distance, as was stated ad nauseum multiple times, before she had even posted the action itself.
