Bio



Call me Doc. I'm open to just about every form of roleplay at any time, so if you want to have some fun just toss a P.M my way.

I do prefer RM, URM, or low tier fights, with human or peak human hand-to-hand and swords & sandals being my speciality.
Challenge me to a match just any old time!

The average rate of a brisk jog is about seven feet per second, which was how long Magnix waited when Auz began moving. The world record for Olympic long jump is twenty-nine feet, Auz coming up a little short of that at roughly twenty-five. Auz had originally spawned about twenty-two feet in front of the King after his last death. As a result, he'd be hurtling right for the big fella with enough momentum in his armored body to probably bowl him over. All that stood before him and his opponent was that fireball, however there was a trade-off. The size of the bubble likely obscured the King's view of Auz, and as Magnix had begun blowing the thing the moment he was sure Auz was going to evade, he'd have no idea that his opponent was now, after his three deaths, more than 195% faster than he had been when they first met. 25% on top of 25% on top of 25%. Auz would reach the King nearly twice the rate expected, and with the bonus of having his approach obscured.

Baring his teeth, hair set back against the wind, Auz skewered his longsword through the large fire bubble with the intent of shish-kebabing Magnix's heart. Though it would undoubtedly unleash the torrent of flames and cruelly wound the knight, surely those flames wouldn't have even a mote of the kinetic energy required to impede the flying stab of Auz. Seeing as Magnix would be liable only to realize something was off about Auz's speed once the bubble had burst and cleared his field of vision, he'd be left with virtually no viable time to react to the swift blade whose passage was of such haste that it could leave one dead before they had even seen the thrust.
@Rilla

Build up, huh? Like it takes a few posts to start working, a few to prepare Gonad's body, takes up to several more before it actually kicks into gear? Sort of like a gradual acclimation process, like how deep sea divers can't immediately bolt for the surface without letting their bodies adapt to the pressure.

Is that sort of what you meant?
@Negatomsk

I understand what you're getting at, and there are indeed ways in which Gonad is overpowered. In consideration of you, and of others, I'll ellaborate on a few things I rarely speak of.

There are ways to defend against the Beardforce, but you have to have the mentality of a low or human tier fighter to properly grasp the ways to do it. Think of it as a fight between highly trained swordsmen. In a real swordfight, often it's over in just a few seconds. Why? Because humans are squishy flesh and blood creatures that, when not powered up, can't really survive a lot of things. It depends on who lands the finishing blow first. It's against the rules to nerf other characters, so instead Gonad just gets buffed to the point where the fight can be potentially decided by a single stroke.

The balance comes into play when you realize that Gonad is a huge meaty target too. Even more of a balancing factor? Gonad's weapons are vulnerable.

What if you could wound someone by chopping at their sword? If Gonad throws a kick, you can cut his leg off. You can stab his fist, slash tendons. The bracers help, but that's just forearms and nothing else. Gonad's offense is particularly vulnerable to being crippled. In addition, he has to get close to fight. He can run down opponents, but there are ways to hinder Gonad, and he doesn't always have a convenient canvas to fling around as temporary cover in a confined space.

Those are his main weaknesses, now I'll aknowlege why he's able to hold such a huge advantage over nearly everyone.

Grabbing and the striking points of Muay Thai. Most characters typically wield two true weapons at most in CQC. Gonad has at least nine, allowing him to counter attack much more consistently than others. Head, two hands, two elbows, two knees, two feet, known also as the points of striking in street Muay Thai. Even one-armed. He still has seven different tools to score a fast win with.

Gonad's grab should be considered a death sentence, as it restricts both the opponent's offense and defence, keeps them in close range, and opens up the potential to manipulate their body through grappling techniques.

All of these factors are rarely taken into account when someone unfamiliar with Gonad rises to the challenge. Yes, I agree, Gonad's style is meant to wrench fighters out of their comfort zone and force them to take me on my way, which us heavily weighted in Gonad's favor due to his raw strength and immense potential for counter attacks.

Replication permits stalemates, as does equalisation of force. Beardforce works differently, equalising durability and offense not to stalemate, but to make for a very, very short fight when I'm dead serious about going for a win. My opponents rarely foresee all of these factors, don't take into account how much practice I have with Gonad (my oldest character) and so frequently think they should stand a significant chance of winning in close quarters, which they really don't. It's because of how their own experience tells them that they should at least be able to make a single move without being fatally punished.

Gonad has always been my ace because of this, because of how, yes indeed, the way a fight proceeds under the influence of the Beardforce is extremely tricky and potentially outright one-sided. All I have to do is make a good approach and coerce my opponent into staying near Gonad. In your case, I broadcast how deadly it would have been to retreat. "Retreat is doom", I believe. Standing your ground is much worse though. I use Gonad's tells and aura to mindgame others into doing what I want them to do, in case you haven't already seen past my tricks. Not powerplaying or metagaming, but the power of suggestion.
What's more, if you'll notice, many of Gonad's actions I described from Lobo's point of view. Another mindgame meant to subliminally make someone feel limited in the ways they can respond.

I hope this explanation helps for reference, allowing future opponents of Gonad to better understand why fights with him progress in such an unorthodox fashion. I was count on all of these factors to give me a hidden, but legal, one-up over the competition. Legal here, that is. Where you come from Negatimsk, I doubt the Beardforce would've been allowed. Character profiles must list all abilities, but around here at least, that doesn't mean I have to go in-depth about how those abilities precisely influence the fight when combined with the character's fighting, and my writing, styles.

@Rai

Auz had no idea the kind of tricks Magnix had up his sleeve. To him, a sword toss was a sword toss and it rendered his opponent unarmed. Auz leapt over the thrown sword, the only possible trap taken into account being the potential for a fireball or something really hot to come flying his way. However, it worked both ways, for Auz too had something to take Magnix off guard. He was more than fifty percent faster than he had been before, and despite having only been approaching at a jog, the speed of his evasive leap and the distance it covered would have aporoached the world record for the olympic long jump. His feet came a full six feet off the ground as he hurtled the King's greatsword, likely exceeding whatever time/distance calculation Magnix had been estimating.
@Negatomsk

I don't like the way this is proceeding either, but I do detect a recurring theme. I simply could not get along with Starfall (she's the one roleplayer I find past redemption), I had difficulty getting to understand Everret, and now with you, I find myself in a similar situation. We both have our groupies, our home teams, and I should think that between your guys and my guys, there's some kind of gap in communication, like what occured in the tournament thread resulting in the Luchalliance leaving en masse. I had a similar experence with Melon, and it took a half year, perhaps longer, for us to resolve our differences.

Why exactly is this? Are there alternate standards, customs? I do not know, but I try to keep an open mind. Try, at least.

I won't budge on my opinions concerning this fight, I spent many hours in contemplation and gave found no room to stretch where my emotes are concerned, but I can prove quite flexible when it comes to making amends. We can agree to disagree, and disagree with no more snark, sarcasm, or my favorite, trash talk. More debating likely won't end well, at least. We got our shots in, now cooling down might be best.

So , I'll be the first to say, sorry for calling you trash, among other nasty things.
Naw, you're dodging me. Anyone who wants to see the truth can check the link for the Pater's scrap, and that's all I'll say about that. I'll keep posting evidence of your deceit, you keep on trying to change the subject. I'll take that trade.

AGAIN!

Would prefer no judge at all. Win-or-loss I've never needed one.


But that's neither here nor there, seeing as you still haven't responded to my earlier assertion: you never denied my request for this fight to go unjudged, which was a condition for joining this fight, the same as my so-called tacit acceptance of everything in your sheet.



You NEVER said it was a condition to have no judge. All you said was that you'd have "preferred not to have one". 'Prefer' as a word does not imply the implementation of a strict condition, you logic twisting trash.


@Negatomsk

It seems the core of your argument is that Lobo's costume can absorb and redistribute force. If that's the case, I do believe I'm justified in calling a checkmate, with all due respect.

Keep in mind that the only description of Lobo's costume existing in regards to physical damage is a "heavy resistance", nothing about the mechanics of that resistance. Now, the heavy shit.

Remember before our fight, you brought up my match with Sky? I told you in no uncertain terms that...

Sky had kinetic dampening, absorbtion, and dissipation that was an explicit ability of his. I flat out told you that the Beardforce should have broken his bones anyways, so you can't claim that Lobo could have endured the headbutt. Like I said, I don't enjoy being 'that guy', but in a ranked match I'm plenty more strict.

In every way, shape, and form, I have made it clear that Gonad isn't supposed to be fought as if he were a traditional martial artist. He's a physical monster, whose blows I have genuinely likened to swords and maces being used on a normal human in his profile.
Lobo took the hit, and that hit is absolutely a knockout blow.


Now, keeping in mind the above, check this out.

I mentioned that two of our members have beaten you, I never mentioned which two. You assumed I meant Sky, you assumed I'd read his fight, so don't go putting words in my mouth or knowledge in my head.


So you didn't mean Sky? Then by all means enlighten me. I'm genuinely curious. During my year and a half on this site, I've only ever lost twice, both times intentional. Sky was one of them, so prove me wrong. I dare you. I double dog dare you. Either way I mentioned Sky in the post immediately after the one where I stated that the Beardforce could break bones through such defenses.


I went easy on your friend, and accomodated him to an incredible extent. He'd have lost in a single action if I had been more insistent on the function of Gonad's beardforce. Broken knuckles from the blocked punch, a broken wrist from the awkward way he tried to block the bear slap.


Pretty big talk considering two members of the alliance have already beaten you, with one having beaten Gonad himself, but keep talking.


Now truth be told I have seen one of your fights before, but that was only because you actively fought someone else in another thread I'd joined-


So, ladies and gentlemen, as you can see, our little friend Negatomsk isn't just making excuses, he's outright lying, and very badly I might add. That other thread? The character used was the Magna Pater, not Gonad, as can be seen in the link below. Looks like Negatomsk's friends are every bit as slimy as he is, but keep in mind I never lost this fight. It was undecided because the thread ended due to the cancer.

@Negatomsk

Nice taunt. Does my heart good to see that you've reached the point of simply tossing petty provocations my way. Why don't you provide the post where I fled the fight? Oh right, you can't because I didn't flee. I resigned because I was derailing the thread by fighting everyone, and decided to not be a bigger ass to the host than I already was.

Now let's have another repost of your fibs, which are on topic for the resolution of this thread and not a different one.

@Negatomsk

There are no contradictions, unlike the kind you keep spouting at me about not having an understanding about how the Beardforce worked before the fight. I didn't attempt to explain either, and I'm certainly more qualified to explain my own character to a judge than you are, considering how overpowered you keep implying Lobo is. I'll explain how my character works, and you'll quit trying to lie to my face, got it?

Go read my last post, it explains all that is needed. And yes, Gonad is a melee specialist because he only uses melee in offense, DUH. Lobo may be 'good' at melee (though you personally suck), but he can still channel his abilities to cover a wider versatility of functions and ranges than Gonad. Because all Gonad does is fuck people up close, he's obviously superior in that regard.

Oh wait, you're too stupid to have read my last post to see that I've already pointed that out. You're drastically exaggerating anything and everything to try and improve your argument, and asking the same shit over and over to stall.

You NEVER said it was a condition to have no judge. All you said was that you'd have "preferred not to have one". 'Prefer' as a word does not imply the implementation of a strict condition, you logic twisting trash.

Just to further drive the nail in, here's that proof of your bullshit again.

So, yes. @Negatomsk, I've been keeping track of your chain of lies.
