  • I have many responsibilities on this site, and this means I only wear each hat for as long as is necessary. Therefore, you may leave CRT/calc eval/whatever requests, and I will try to get to it, but understand that my time is limited and I'm normally already tapped for some wiki policy matter or maintaining the wiki management threads or handling account issues for users who never seem to get things right. Low priority requests include tiershit, particularly active verses, and discussions with a lot of active staff voices already present. I'm not saying "no" but I probably won't get to them. If I don't reply, smart money says it won't be me to get to it. Sorry.

    So the Sonic 3 movie is out and long story short there’s a giant cannon that was gonna blow up the planet. It’s specifically stated that the explosion will be 25,000 mile radius. Dale can’t seem to properly calc it so I’m wondering if we can just it’s 5-a based off of said statement?

    just figuring out how to account for the actual range we're given but yeah I've no qualms myself with it being just baseline 5-B
    The_one_you_least_expect
    The_one_you_least_expect
    Eh, you the radius itself is arguably implied to just be from the blast itself not gbe. But if that’s still not enough then it is what it is
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    Well, no. You could use the radius or the blast, both would be acceptable (and maybe there's more to it, I haven't seen the movie and can only work with the intel you provide- if there's more to it, I rely on you to let me know). What I'm saying is that 5-B, as the GBE, is likely higher than just a 25,000 mile radius explosion would yield.

    Let me demonstrate. This is not an explosion that is ground-based, as it is technically larger than the diameter (and even circumference) of Earth. Still, I'll calculate it as both a ground-based explosion, and an airburst one, because I don't know what form the explosion would have taken in the movie.

    Airburst: Y = ((x/0.28)^3)/1000

    where x = 40233.6 / 2 = 20116.8 km

    So

    Y = ((20116.8/0.28)^3)/1000 = 3.7085e11 Megatons of TNT, or 1.552e27 Joules, or about midway through High 6-A.

    Groundburst: W = R^3*((27136*P+8649)^(1/2)/13568-93/13568)^2

    where R = 20116800 m

    P = At least 1.37895 bars

    So

    W = 20116800^3*((27136*1.37895+8649)^(1/2)/13568-93/13568)^2 = 6.543e17 Tons of TNT, or 2.738e27 Joules, marginally higher into High 6-A.

    If it would destroy the world (as in, crack it apart), then that's suitable for 5-B, but any calculation of the explosion itself will not yield a comparable value.

    I've created a thread to get the new glass breaking formula officially approved. Can you give your opinion? And can you ping the other CGMs?

    A new formula for glass breaking feats was created by @Perequeliri993. And this formula was approved by @Ugarik and @Flashlight237. And since the formula was approved, it has been used in many different calculations. Here are some of them;

    It looks like the closest thing FromSoft has come to making slop. I'm reserving final judgment for the final product but suffice to say a Hunt Showdown esque battle Royale attempting to cashing in on all previous IPs seems... not like something one would hope they'd spend time on.

    Thread 'Birthday Thread For Everyone!'

    To anyone who wants to celebrate their birthday in the Forum with other people, this space is made for you all!

    Mostly making this cause while there IS a tab showing who has their birthday on the current day, it's not automatically visible to everyone.... Actually it might be possible to ask staff if it's possible to make the tab visible on the Home page in addition to Members? Either way, happy belated birthday or birthday in advance to everyone and have fun celebrating your birthdays (on the day itself) with other peeps here!

    I just want to check with you if this thread's OK + if you could, within the thread itself, could we discuss about whether it is possible (AND whether it is a good idea) to add a section in the Home Page that reflects the section of the members page for the members whose birthday is on the current day itself, since this may be a better idea than notifications?

    I just didn't know if there was a rule so i asked you


    May I ask for your permission to suggest a rule as a staff thread for the Dragon Ball page and Master Roshi's profile specifically?

    We have seen the same topic since 2016, the downgrade of his 5C level on the early keys, having both sides giving the same arguments from the start, and getting much spite/"heatness" on every (long, as it's always more than 5 pages) thread made for the topic, so I want to ban the creation of further threads on the topic
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    I don't want to give permission to create a thread on a subject I myself would not contribute to- this fits in that category. I'm not saying it's not a sensible thing to discuss, I really couldn't say one way or the other, I have no familiarity with it- but as I wouldn't contribute, I shouldn't sign off on it, y'know?

    So, you should ask someone else, I think. Probably a Dragon Ball staff member.

    Hi, I'm sorry to be here again.
    Last time, I asked you about Non-Physical Interaction, and you mentioned something about the soul being able to be proven as physical. I'm just curious: if a soul is pressed or crushed by an object, such as a building, that clearly has no form of NPI, could this be considered proof that the soul is physical?

    And on the NPI page, the description mentions that interacting with fire is also considered NPI. I wonder if this means that a character who has fire manipulation would be considered to have NPI.
    Detective_Blizzard
    Detective_Blizzard
    Not the guy you asked, but this would be better asked in Questions and Answers.

    Personally have no answer about the building thing, but no a character with Fire Manipulation wouldn't have NPI as they just have Fire Manipulation. There are many applications of the ability and they'd need to do something like physically grab the element or something similar to have NPI as opposed to simply generating/controlling flames via an ability.
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    Fire manipulation is not NPI- it is a particular thing one can control, it doesn't extend to the broad spectrum of things like fire.

    As for the soul thing, speaking in hypotheticals is difficult because every situation will be different. But if it were consistently displayed to have situations like that, then yeah, it probably wouldn't be considered non-physical.

    Would that be problematic?

    So, I vaguely, somehow, found my way to a certain series of novels. It's not "extremely famous" but it has been bought and reviewed by a lot of persons, so popularity wise, it should probably be fine. The problem, however, is that in the last couple volumes (merely glanced at them diagonally)...

    Howdy, apologies for bothering you about this again but I figured it's something worth mentioning. Since the Composite revision changes nothing for the verse from it's current, wouldn't that make it a minor revision only needing 1 vote for it?

    I've already asked some other staff to look at it but I figured it's worth asking since the nonsensical back and forth me and the other user had is likely going to deter some people from looking at it.

    To be honest, it's just that there's not enough active staff willing to read through all that. I sincerely believe that the best thing any user on this wiki can do to get their threads evaluated is to make them as straightforward and concise as possible, hah.

    Regardless. I wish you luck in getting someone to look through it.

    I understand and agree that things should be more straightforward and concise. Though as you saw interactions between me and that user can turn a topic that only needs a few sentences into some annoyingly long fight.

    As it is unrelated to my ban, I'm posting it here as not to clog the thread.

    Shouldn't an actual time be decided for DMM? Users are usually allowed to come back if they ask for their ban to be lifted. Without a set time, it makes it hard to decide when he should be allowed to ask for a ban lift.

    Better to decide now since the incident is fresh.
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    A user would be required to contact us to undo a permanent ban regardless; the context of his ban is available in our Warning Tracker, so it won't be hard for him to do that. As for coming back too soon, I sincerely doubt this will be an issue; I would not have suggested more than a month or two for his behavior today, and I think anyone asking for a permanent ban would not return so quickly. Even if he did, we can work with the context of his offense to determine whether he ought to be unbanned at that time.

    It's a good question, but I don't think it'll be an issue.
    Chris_only9271
    Hi, would you mind if I ask you some questions about the rules and conditions for claiming the ability "Non-physical Interaction" for a character?

    If Character A uses their power to harm a soul, but meanwhile Character B, who does not have any supernatural powers, can also touch and kick the soul, does that mean Character B has the "Non-physical Interaction" ability, or does it imply that the soul is not considered a non-physical entity?

    For example, in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, some characters like Dr. Strange, Wong, and Scarlet Witch have the ability "Non-physical Interaction" by harming the soul. However, in one scene, Christine Palmer is also able to kick a soul.
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    I don't want to speak on the Marvel example because I know nothing about it.

    If a soul is proven to be physically tangible, interacting with it is not non-physocal interaction. Otherwise, it is.

    Hello! Can you help me with a calc?

    The character is heating a meteorite to ash(1:23). None of the materials that meteors are made of can be turned into ash, so there is no heat value to heat them into ash. So I can't calculate the feat. How can I calculate it? Can I use the evaporation values because they don't turn to ash?
