    Establishing the Concepts in A Novel Concept | Indexing a new LitRPG Novel

    You're really not helping your case by trying to keep this facade of neutrality when you have not only been acting incredibly dismissive and elitist throughout this entire thread, but have invented standards out of nothing such as the "cultural relevance" tangent. You verifiably do not...

    Establishing the Concepts in A Novel Concept | Indexing a new LitRPG Novel

    Not really, you're acting like it's some infallible golden standard more important than viewership when it just categorically isn't. Some things get published, and some don't. And then books like The Protocols of the Elders of Zion get published because it's about money, not quality or effort as...

    Establishing the Concepts in A Novel Concept | Indexing a new LitRPG Novel

    Publishing is not some insanely high bar. Self-publishing or low-involvement publishers for works that traditional publishers don't want to associate with has been a thing for ages. Getting something published is not and has never been a marker of quality or effort, just knowing the right...

    Establishing the Concepts in A Novel Concept | Indexing a new LitRPG Novel

    Bambu, the entire point is the standards are incredibly and provably unreasonable. It has been repeatedly shown to be contradictory with basic common sense regarding reader counts. Your stated standard of 100,000 or 1,000,000 views is something that ******* Marvel and DC would struggle to reach...

    Establishing the Concepts in A Novel Concept | Indexing a new LitRPG Novel

    Except the standards for what is "impactful" have repeatedly been shown to be absurdly high and unnecessarily restrictive in their targeting. If these notability standards were applied universally, I'm confident over 90% of the wiki would get deleted. Obviously, that's not going to happen, but...

    Establishing the Concepts in A Novel Concept | Indexing a new LitRPG Novel

    This is a completely absurd stance to take. These are both well within the point where the author can live solely off of their writing, and the latter example is someone who is straight up rich off of their writing. If these are considered "obscure," there are very few published novels that...

    Chinamen Nonduality

    I fail to see how they don't qualify, particularly with your nonexistent explanations for why, I will admit I hadn't kept up with the changes to the power as of late, but it's really not so hard to understand to the point that something as blatant as this simply doesn't meet the criteria. If...

    Chinamen Nonduality

    I don't follow? The entire point is that the Omega Daos/Prime Essence are something wholly distinct from yin and yang which are only emanations of that greater truth/reality. These are literally embodied by characters past a certain level, a different state that isn't subject to yin and yang, to...

    Chinamen Nonduality

    The entire point is that yin and yang isn't just dual concepts, but is the basis of all forms of duality as well. You can see this is the mention of the trigrams, which in Bagua is a sort of way to encode concepts and objects in binary operators using yin and yang, which at the level involved...

    Chinamen Nonduality

    I can't speak for all of these, but I am quite certain that Ji Ning and 4th step cultivators from Ergenverse do qualify. The idea of yin and yang as the basis for all dual concepts, including those that can coexist and those that cannot, is pretty integral to this genre and both verses have it...

    (7-0-0) A monster fights a God: Chelshia vs. The Heartless One

    For the record Otherworldly Damage is just that, another damage type. It's related to soul stuff and ignores physical armor, but it's not a one-shot against normal people and the resistance on some pages likely comes from items that give reductions to Otherworldly Damage taken. Anyways...

    Robot vs Monster (Chelshia [Khimera:DAMG] vs Player [Combat Warriors])

    Chelshia FRA. Significant AP advantage means a lot of The Player's abilities aren't particularly relevant. Weapons close this gap of course, but 3x is a lot, particularly when The Player's durability doesn't get buffed alongside those. They both have temporary speed boosts and various ranged...

    (GRACE) Back on my Nonsense: Chelshia vs Mario

    Chelshia FRA, higher combat skill and better ranged options overcoming the notable but not extreme AP gap.

    League of Legends Low1-A/1-A

    I will admit that I am not particularly into LoL personally, but I have been a part of multiple similar attempted revisions in the past. Many other users above echo my thoughts on 1-A and the like, that being that none of the scans presented are even close to indicating the kind of qualitative...
