I'm afraid he can't be a dark jedi master right off the bat. Has to go through the training and whatnot, so that people can't just walk in and deem themselves Vader the Second. :mneh

Read the FAQs and try to follow them, and if you're going to make a new character, it's best if you make a new account for that character, instead of using the same account for everything, Kraken. it makes it easier for you and for everyone else you rp with.
Park Kraken

New account? And here I thought you could make only one because of the Infiltration rules. Sweet! Is there any limit to how many accounts you can have?
Dae Jinn
Jun 26th, 2003, 05:01:21 PM
You should make an account for each character you have. You can join other groups, but you can't use IC knowledge you have as one character as another character in a different group (if that makes sense, if not, someone else will probably explain it clearer :lol).
There's no real limit, but it's best to only have a few characters when you're starting out :)

but so be it. I'm going to intercept your second action, as it's not realistic to assume everyone would stand around to let you do this.
In the future, try to spread your actions out over several posts instead of cramming. Cramming is a bad practice to fall into.

It's a rare metal, extremely expensive, if you can find it. And it's mainly the armor plating on a suncrusher. And these ships are abandoned out in space somewhere, where no one knows where they are. And even then, to manage to get the armor plating off and heating it...
To have such a sword, it would require a RP.
Dasquian Belargic
Jun 27th, 2003, 02:26:03 PM
Similarly light sabers are extremely rare, because of the crystals, yet they're two to a penny here. Everyone and their uncle can find, make or buy them off your local exotic weapons dealer.
I think it's fair to say that's he's allowed a sword. No need to make a big deal out of it.

Ummm, another problem with this thread is that Sorsha seems to just inflict pain on anyone she wants without giving them time to respond. Isn't the majority of pain on a character supposed to be told by the characters player? It kind of bugs me that when I start posting that people tell me that I can't just kill somebody or something in one post, but then people turn around and do it to me. I don't mind doing it the way she does, just don't turn around and scold me when I do it. But otherwise, I do inflict realistic damage on my characters. I'm not a "You didn't hit me at all in this almost certain, etc." type of RPer.

Quantium distrubs me, especially as it is described as being able to withstand insane heat and pressures that there is utterly no rational or even irrational explaination for. No metal or compund, no matter how formed, can resist even a tiny bit of what the Sun Crusher is described as resisting. Sun Crushers and the ilk were thrown out of here as a God Mode, I would seriously suggest Quantium be thrown out as well, because clearly Quantium was pulled out of the butt of an EU writer to make something "cool" and failed misrebly. There are ways to make swords resist a lightsabre, it's even resonably acceptible and it's found in the Dark Side source book, which hints Jedi also had them before sabres.
I would not quibble with a sword, personally esp if it's a Sith Sword. It's doable, but it has to be either found or forged by a high rank Force user. When I did have a sword that was forged like so (the present one is not), I chose to take a OOC year to complete it. That was just me, cause I thought it was logically a very difficult thing to do. That's neither here nor there - the point I jsut wandered from was that a sword forged with assistance fo the Force is to me acceptible. a Quantium one IMO is not.

What about some kind of super refinned Cortosis Ore?

ReaperFett

Cortosis Ore is viable, as it has the ability to block (Not shut off) Lightsabres, but would still be as strong as a normal metal, as opposed to smashing to pieces. However, bare in mind that it would be pretty expensive.
Cortosis is a brittle fiber, not an ore.
Cortosis Ore exists, was in the comics.

When has this argument happend? I mean, all the people who know Oddball had a Cortosis ore weapon didn't say anything.
Furthermore, how come a Sith master can make something that does the same, and that is fair? That's free, and technically he could just mass-produce them if he so desired. Is that fair?
TheHolo.Net
Jun 27th, 2003, 08:24:29 PM
How's this for you?
The administrator/owner of this site now proclaims that Cortosis ore as a viable malleable metal is not allowed here at SWFans. End of argument.
Sith Masters aren't here in the dozens and those that are here are quite responsible in how they RP. Sith swords will not be mass produced.

Perhaps a proper discussion for cortosis, ysalmari and other such items is in order rather than just pinning each one down with each new issue and problematic OOC thread. There's putting your foot down, sure, but lets kick off our goose-stepping boots before any rash decisions are made.
Lilaena De'Ville
Jun 27th, 2003, 08:55:17 PM
It all falls under common sense in MY opinion.
Common sense says not everyone has a sword or katana that can block a lightsaber. It can happen....people CAN have them, but lets be LOGICAL about this.
Cortosis I thought, was always a fiberous ore. Not that it ISN'T an ore, its just a flaky, fiberous ore. Like the balsa wood of minerals. Completely impractical for weapons such as swords, or daggers. I do know one RPer who's character has little cortosis shruikens, which are only good once, because as soon as you use them they break and are destroyed. Very brittle.
Yslamiri weren't even brought up. But again, common sense will reign here. They're found on only one planet, they can only be carried around on a nutrient frame, and thus they're fairly bulky to transport and also impractical. Also, if you're a Force user, it makes no sense to carry around one. Sanis used to have Roddy (now Roddy 2) and I'm not sure how he carted the thing around, but he RPed going to Mykyr and getting the furry salamander thing.
All New RPers should READ THE FAQ. That is also common sense. All old RPers should remember everything. ;) EVERYTHING! :crack Resistance is futile.

Descisions made. Flawed IMO, but made.
One slight error on my part btw. WHen I said ore? Should have been alloy.
Marcus Telcontar
Jun 27th, 2003, 09:11:34 PM
Cortoris is like asbestos - it can be woven like asbestos, it is an ore like asbestos, but it is brittle.... just like asbestos. Asbestos is technically a metal I might add and appears to be what cortoris was based on. I do not believe asbestos can be alloyed and if it can, it only does so poorly. So LD's summary is correct.
And yes, this has been discussed before - back when we were at Ezboard - when I was admin actually. It was an open discussion then and i would not be surprised if it's somewhere down low in the billion odd threads archived here.
ReaperFett
Jun 27th, 2003, 09:16:16 PM
It hadn't actually been created at that stage, the comic had Dooku in at the end, so the comparative part was non-existant.
And you were an admin? Thought you were only a mod. Mind grows senile :)
TheHolo.Net
Jun 27th, 2003, 09:18:36 PM
I clarified my ruling on the subject to be the same as what was decided in the past. Allowing Cortosis to be used as a viable malleable metal would get ridiculously out of hand if allowed, considering there have already been several instances in the last few years where people have tried and been denied, its best we stick with precedent.

Think laterally, Fett. If you want a hint, "Force Pike of Helenias".
No one said you cant coat or cover a weapon. That's a second hint.
Third hint is PM Helen and discuss if you cant work it out from my first two hints :p
Yeah, I admined I was onbaord before Ogre was and got out when I simply had enough of TSE's BS. When your not enjoying RP or adminning, that was a hint for me to get out and start to have fun agian.

Okay, I always try to be fair and post ONCE a turn. The combat here is so open ended so it's impossible not to make errors every once in awhile. I'm used to turned based combat with dice and pen and paper, and I even developed a little dice system for myself to use. I abandoned it after getting beaten up one time too many. Those dice really hated me.
I have been beaten up more times than I've tasted victory, so I think I've paid my dues.
But back to the point, I don't make more actions than I feel I'm allowed, and I ALWAYS wait for people to respond to what I've done.
I will attempt to inflict specific damage on someone, and I will co-ordinate attacks with other people. It's all perfectly legal and there's nowhere in the rules that state this can't be done.
Sorsha is ruthless and animalistic, and I've been playing her like this for 3 years now.

I'd also like to request that this thread (the RP) slows down and becomes "turn-based". Certain people, myself included, have now fallen into jeopardy of being left behind. So let's decide a posting order and list it here so things don't move too fast. This is to keep it fair for evreyone. I've seen too many times where a thread moves ahead 12 or 15 posts, with people making multiple posts while other people get let behind.

I want to say something on this sword saber bit. I'm aware the issue is dead but you aware that the saber is turning out to be the ultimate weapon. I mean now the only weapon that can block it is an another saber and blasters are no match for a saber eather. so basically that leaves space ships weapons as the only thing that can rival a saber. to me thats a bit ridicules.

Incidentally, the cortosis ore argument is pretty much null and void regardless. Lightsabers can be tuned to cleave through the stuff without suffering any ill effects. Luke Skywalker briefly mentions having done so in one of the New Jedi Order books.
That which was developed in EU, has been worked around in EU. 'nuff said. :)

Sanis uses cortosis, but in an unorthodox method. His shell gun can fire a shell that is a durasteel-jacketed cortosis slug. Essentially, it takes advantage of both of cortosis's main attributes: its ability to shut down lightsabers, and its brittle, fibrous nature. If a force user intercepts the projectile with his saber, it will melt away the durasteel jacket, shut the saber down, and reduce the slug into a maelstrom of fast-moving schrapnel and debris.
However, the ammunition is hideously expensive and rare. I think I've used it twice since I've created Sanis's character.

Ummm, okay, what has happened as far as I know since Sorsha's last post. I hammered her away, got on catwalk, ran torward another fight, got stopped by wargrave, tried to saber him, he burned me with force lightning. I managed to get away from him, staggered out to my speeder, loaded up ysalamiri, and weapons, went back into hangar, fired stun missile at wargrave, then went over to where a light side Jedi (Ki-Adi-Kindo) and some other Dark Jedi had worn themselves out, and I tried to ignite him with a flamethrower, but yet another Dark Jedi redirected the missle into my back, sent me flying over, and I will be out cold for the next 24 hours unless someone revives me. The ysalamiri are now dead, the flamethrower has exploded, and there are flames everywhere, the fuel for the flame lasts for 5 hours, I discarded my missile launcher before this, it is near the hangar entrance, ummmmmm, and that is basically it for me.

Actually, I spent last night making my own little quick guide. It may be a bit long, but it's quicker than reading the whole thread and focuses on the actual combat.

Thank for that summary :D

Plus the flamethrower explodes, which is how the Ysalamiri die. The area around Wargrave, Ki-Adi-Kindo, and others are going up in flames.

Ok some quick observations...
1)Stop bashing the Noob... For his sake will someone please take him under their wing and show him the ropes.
2)Kraken, if your getting beat up by everyone in the thread, that means that your doing something wrong. Get with someone and see if you can't get Obelisk some training.
3)Turned based? Is asking someone to do 1 or 2 posts per day too much to ask? I can't see (other then waiting for your partner to post) anything that would make this turned based? I know that the thread has kind of turned into a basic study on what not to do if your new to a forum, but if people are saying thats it's moving too fast, then maybe everyone should post only a few times per day in there.

1)Stop bashing the Noob... For his sake will someone please take him under their wing and show him the ropes. A lot of people have tried. Kraken doesn't show an interest in playing correctly, as evinced by many threads. I bet his PM box is pretty full right now. Honestly, I'm not sure how its our responsibility, especially since he ignores advice.

I forgot about doing things that way, but you're right on that count, Strider. So effective now I'm declaring the 3 posts max limit per day per person. It's been proven to work. I feel so dumb for forgetting about it.
Sorsha Kasajian
Jul 5th, 2003, 10:03:51 AM
Sorsha, Jade, Videl, and Vega are now out of the thread.

You shouldn't have to declare it, people should just do it!
There is no reason to declare common sense as a law.
I make funny! :D

Okay, I believe Mil is now out of the thread, so that leaves:
Wargrave, Vali, and someone else
VS
Makoto Neo, Senji, and someone else.

Creating more characters for extra numbers is pretty lame, btw.
Park Kraken
Jul 5th, 2003, 04:54:59 PM
I just wanted to try two at the same time, see how much harder it was, and to try out some two person combination moves.

Kraken, non force users can't RUN as fast as a Force user. Heard of something called, "force speed"? If you watch TPM you can see Obi Wan and Qui Gon using this skill. You'd have to be a Jedi to run that fast, or a Sith.
Registering a second character for the sole purpose of helping a character in trouble in a thread, and then gifting the new character, a non-force user, with Force like capabilities, and double-teaming your new found enemies could quite possibly be a form of GODMODE.
I am keeping an eye on this thread ...still...

Also....running full speed at someone who is facing you with weapons drawn, and hitting them with a move, and leaving no room for them to defend is also a form of GODMODE.
For the record, if you want to run full speed at someone like Vali, when there standing their with their sabers drawn, rp it realistically and just have your character cut in half......cause thats what would happen...Realistically
Park Kraken
Jul 6th, 2003, 01:46:06 AM
Insofar as everyone knew, Slifer, and Kame were charging Neo, but suddenly shifted their aim to two seperate people. I had planned all along to bring three chars into this thread, all three brothers of some kind, one at a time, and for all three to fight together. But because of Obelisk's stupidity, I killed him off with my second char. People can run like Jedi if they have enough muscles, regulary, without the force enhancement. Kame can just about out-run any normal person. Also, my Royal-Guardsmen is wearing Blaster Resistant Armour, and Cortosis Fibers.
Silus Xilarian
Jul 6th, 2003, 02:42:30 AM
Sure, there are non force users who can outrun Jedi...
When Jedi arent using force boosted speed.
But it seems to me like you were refering to him being as fast as Qui Gon and Obi Won in TPM......in that case, no he cant, IMO. The way I see it, a normal human, even if fast enough, would lack the mental reflex to move his legs that fast, without falling flat on his face.
EVEN IF your character could run that fast, he wouldnt have reflex enough to stop and move his pike to hit someone, if he didnt have the force to help slow him down
FURTHERMORE my statement still stands that you could not have pulled that move without Vali being about to defend himself, or launch a counter attack.
EVEN FURTHERMORE THAN THAT you never mentioned wearing cortosis in your post. Adding more stuff just to negate attacks = lame.
Oh, and saying you wanted to RP two characters at once seems like a pretty hollow excuse. Looks to me like you were just trying not to "lose". Point is....dont expect to win your first fight, especially if you're fighting a collection of Knights and Masters.
Park Kraken
Jul 6th, 2003, 02:57:31 AM
#1: I wasn't referring him to be as fast as any Jedi using force enhanced speed.
#2: He had jumped, and used his foot as he was coming down to kick Vali in the face, y'know, like a drop kick.
#3: He did launch a counterattack, a saber slash to my back.
#4: I can give you a rundown of all the stuff my Guardsmen is wearing. His Armour is 6" thick, with Cortosis Fibers woven in to make it partially resistant to lightsabers. He still got wounded pretty badly, but he didn't get sliced in half.
#5: Hollow Excuse? Expecting to Win? Okay, maybe I thought I could win if I added more characters. To be honest, until I read your last statement, I really wasn't thinking about what I was doing in the thread, but then I realised that I was doing what your statement said I was doing without actually knowing it. I will put a stop to this need to win feeling. BTW, thanks for the Accusation.
Silus Xilarian
Jul 6th, 2003, 03:23:46 AM
#1. Then you were a victim of your own bad analogy.
#2 No he didnt. He hit Vali with a force Pike.
#3 I mean a counter attack as in....You make a move, he does something to turn it against you, IE slicing the pike off before it hit him, or sidestepping and slicing Kame in half.
#4 6"!!!! How can he run like a Jedi with 6" thick armor on?! Cortosis weave....I wont worry with argueing, I dunno wtf the policy is on it. I know he didnt get sliced in half. Vali was just giving him a cut to remember him by.
#5 Ive got nothing against an honest mistake, just be more cautious next time. BTW, Your Welcome.
Slifer
Jul 6th, 2003, 03:33:03 AM
Don't worry about it. I left out the part about thick armour. I though Vali was trying for a bisecting cut.
Naj Arilov
Jul 6th, 2003, 03:46:42 AM
Vali only tries a bisecting cut at the waste, that way, he doesnt sever his opponents main organs, esp the heart, from his opponents brain, which means the victim lives a short bit longer, which means a bit more suffering, and time to reflect on his/her bad deeds before death.
