Now that this covers just about everything, what's everyone's thoughts here? (using replies since I can't ping staff)
my vote means nothing, however
where?
the links in that are armor and emile talking about how the planet is PROBABLY bigger than it seems given it's supposed to be a better reward than castles
armor literally says "it'd be better to emphasize the lack of a UES" which is the complete opposite of what you summarise it as.

I may have misspoke there (I have a problem properly wording things), so I do apologize; but the point is if we can have a 5-B rating based on this, the idea is to have ONLY the Genie scale to this until we get more evidence to prove the cast can be at this tier.

Yeah I think 5-B via creation or up to 5-B via reality warping for the Genie is fine, but wouldn't scale to his attacks without a proper UES, similar case to Bowser having a 4-A rating via reality warping that doesn't scale to his normal magic attacks or physicals.
 
He can be 5-B with Creation or what have you but his attacks wouldn't be that

Sure, I'm fine with that. What's everyone opinion on the rest of these proposals? Could we add @Dust_Collector's suggestion while we're at it or should it be saved for a different thread?

Wait, Reclusa has a UES, why doesn't his creation scale to his physicals? (This was the debate of the first thread!)

Also Armor, I know you looked, but if you're not going to engage with something we haven't discussed yet, I'm going to have to put you as neutral, especially given there's no opposition other than you...

??????? What??????? You can't decide someones vote if they never said yes no or neutral to a thread.
My dude "Neutral" is the exact thing as not voting it wouldn't even change anything

I'm only saying this because I'd need a placeholder for someone who is involved in the thread, but isn't saying anything on a certain matter.

Can we not poison the well?

Can you stop acting like this? You have a completely dead discussion you're continuously trying to revive and just shuffle along in the vain hope you'll sucker any people into agreeing, I don't have to forever engage with any argument you decide is worth wasting my time with. I am going to continue not replying and no you cannot list me as neutral. And then people wonder why I say some of you guys are desperate for upgrades.

Yeah, alright.

One more thing though. There is an official Brothership Japanese guidebook (creators of Brothership are involved, as like the Kirby Triple Deluxe guidebook, internal attack names and other information are included. These were used for scaling Sectonia.)

It'll also give us the benefit of seeing an official Japanese explanation of the story, so we can see how both the Japanese locals interpret the original script, but also what certain terms and quotes mean (could help us get around any figure of speech debates).

Once it arrives and I get relevant scans translated, is it okay if I make one more thread featuring the new information, and finally getting this sorted out?

You can close the current one, as no one is interacting with it. The last one will be more sorted out and only use relevant info ^^

As said multiple times before, I would recommend gathering Japanese raws of said guidebooks and having people translate them to English.

That's the plan!
Let's save the whole Reclusa talk for another thread, please; we still need everyone else's vote on the revised proposals here.
 
Alright well - according to Dust Lucien doesn't really scale to the cast in their base forms so it's just on their profile. The Genie doesn't really have a UES but can get 5-B Creation (maybe with a likely since the planet is still depicted the way that it is but I'm not gonna lose sleep over it if it's a full rating, up to you), Snow King can get the ED rating (might as well wait if you're planning to calc that though), and uh, I noticed we swapped calcs for the fan? I suppose if Dale approved it then I have no reason to not consider it superior.
 
Came back to say I have 0 idea why im being told I was poisoning the well for pointing out utter bullshit or unfairness. If that really gets under your skin then I beg of you to not play online multiplayer games let alone bother with vs debating.

After looking over all the feats and reading this thread, I pretty much find myself agreeing with DDM said in their post here


What more I believe that Armor has outlined some real problems with the blackhole feats.

In otherwords, I only agree with the usage of Feat 1 and Feat 11 for any scaling here as all the others aren't strong enough for scaling the core cast to. The Genie (if they have a profile) should scale to their planet feat.
I mean the purpose of the CRT was to apply the calcs, correct? I just thought the OP forgot to mention how they would be applied haha.

And yeah, that answer sufficed.

I'll wait for the conversation between Armor and Omni, since they seem to be debating the fundamentals of the calcs used, before mentioning my final thoughts

I'm not fully up to speed on this thread, though I've kept up with it.
I think I'm tentatively okay with this.

Alright, that's two staff votes for the updated proposals. If we need one or two more, what's everyone else's opinion on these?

You didn't edit the Genie stuff, it's RW, not anything that scales to his powers (Also he's not from Wario World)

Um... O-oh yeah; forgot about that! Sorry. So, uh...
  • 5-B via Reality Warping for the Genie
  • Low 4-C via Things for Paper Mario
  • "higher via training / leveling up / whatever" for the Mario Bros... or something like that...
  • "higher via Environmental Destruction" for the Snow King
And... I think that's the gist of it all with two staff votes, yes? Any objections?

I'd be fine with this but that's a WHOLE other can of shit given they don't stay that strong always so you need to actually make keys and figure out what gains get kept throughout the verse and when do they plummet back down to a general value. It's not that simple.
 
Uh, when did we ever mention that? That's a topic for another thread.

Yeah when I brought that up I even said we'd need a whole CRT for just that because it's not just as easy as slapping "higher" and calling it a day.
Uh... right; sorry about that, guys. I was having a moment...

Anyway, do we have enough votes for the changes below to be applied or do we need a few more?
  • 5-B via Reality Warping for the Genie
  • Low 4-C via Things for Paper Mario
  • "higher via Environmental Destruction" for the Snow King

Armorchompy, Chariot190, Dust_Collector, thoughts?

(I'm refraining from @-ing them for now. Knowledgeable Member support is valuable, but staff votes are the currency concern, & as Armorchompy is a Thread Moderator & Calc Group Member, I'm willing to wait to @ him until at least the end of the week.)

Genie idk, I guess I'll agree unless someone argues it, like I'm neutral but I'll give it ig.
For things, word it as up to that's extremely important, only 1 that we know of gets that high and it's situational it can even apply it all at once.
Snow King needs a calc, but rough napkin math tells me it doesn't even matter, dropping global temp to cause planetary snowfall is lower than what they are right now.

So... do we have enough votes to apply the changes?
 
I haven’t been keeping tabs on this thread, but the current proposals seem fine with me and I’m good with upgrading the cast to the High 6-A fan feat (until Paper Mario gets his scaling reworked and has his keys split up due to AD shenanigans of course)
 
One minor note, we do not capitalize "level."
Okay. How's this? Maybe we can upscale the rest of the cast's durability to the High 6-A feat from the fan calculation as well.
Not sure, when it comes to giant fans like that, ISL often effects things like durability required to survive things not being all that impressive. When it comes to things like some big explosions, giant tidal waves, and giant area of effect winds, withstanding those are often only all that impressive if the target is physically large enough to absorb much of those impacts.

I see. I suppose I should make another CRT for this

Well, it looks like this is all we can apply for now, but in the meantime, I'll create some profile drafts for the Snow King and Genie and calculate the Earth freezing feats. Could you or someone else close this thread, please?
