Mine's not bad. 8 gigs Ripjaws RAM, two TB HDDs (plus the three I have in my current rig), Radeon HD 7870 card, 8-core AMD CPU, Gigabyte AMD 970 mobo, Corsair 500 watt heatsink, NZXT Phantom case.

Could have doubled up on RAM and/or bumped up to a Crossfire situation with dual VGAs, but honestly I don't think either of those are required for today's gaming situation. My machine is capable of running any modern game on max settings without much of an issue.

I cannot fathom any reason to have 16 gigs of RAM unless you're rendering, 3D animating, or something similar. Same with dual VGAs. Too much power, not enough s**t in most situations to warrant it.

Don't argue UFC with Vin.

He's uber anti-real fighting.

I try and I just can't convince the guy.

What's very alarming is still the lack of comment on the issuing of penalties is not uniform between the judges, especially for something as serious as a profile violation.

I have 16 gigs of ram, but ironically it's because I do 3D animation and such. lol Also, I tend to overload the s**t out of any game doable with texture mods, and when your VRAM starts to reach its limits, you really don't want to be limited elsewhere.

Plus RAM's dirt cheap, comparatively speaking.

What I need to work on next is a better PSU. Just in case.

I kind of want to see the part where I "quickly shift his left punch into a right cross. " to be quoted

Because I'm pretty sure that didn't happen and it seems he took off points for it.

Makes me think Vin might have 'skimmed' my post rather than read them.

So can I just do what Austin did the one year and request that Vintrict not grade my fights?

It's not really pride. It's really "I can't tell you what makes for a 3." I could try a criteria later on, but Molestia people are still going to whine about it. I sometimes mix roleplay with logic, too, and that shares some traits with the Tactic category, so there's that, too. If someone does something stupid, it counts against their roleplay score, too. That's probably the only thing that could be quantified, but the majority of what scores roleplay is subjective.


Roleplaying

Score of 0 - Roleplaying was nonexistent, posts only showed basic fundamental of the fight itself and only listed the moves as they were being performed. Nothing was done to dress up the post and the character's spirit and drive was nowhere to be found from an outsider's view in. The character ignores or outright avoids acknowledging damage dealt to the character and fatigue that is triggered off of abilities or powers.

Score of 1 - The character is given a basic personality that is reflected in reactions to damage and changes in the fight's flow. The posts only reflect on the fight itself in a manner in which only core information is being given. Wounds and hampering effects on the character are poorly reflected in the status of the character during the combat which leads to situations where for example, missing a nose for most of the fight is shrugged off as a flesh wound. Abilities and powers present on the character sheet are grossly overstated or used, negative effects in reaction to abilities used are played down past what is listed in the profile.

Score of 2 - The character does a good job in selling their actions, using a good mix of non-combat and combat material to deliver the picture the character has of the current situation from their point of view. Powers and moves are well written and allow for the opponent to reasonably reply without having to worry about misunderstandings that could result in a shutdown of posting. Damage is being reflected in a style that is believable, yet can be over exaggerated or under emphasized when taking into consideration long term effects from the injuries. The character is true to their character sheet and reflects all positive and negative effects as stated.

Score of 3 - Each post allows both the spectator and the judge to examine how the character is doing on all fronts of the combat. Physical status and prowess is shown clearly, taking into effect all wounds, fatigue, and positive buffs the character is currently handing behind the scenes. Mental condition is also present as the character's thoughts and drive is shown clearly for anyone to see, allowing the on-looker to have a sense of immersion and the ability to guess when a character will either break or press forward. Combat related portions of the fight are clearly written and take into effect the opponent's actions, as well as the field situation and the position of the character's own weapons. The character sheet is followed to a T and the character's listed abilities are fully represented without error.

~~~~~~

Quick, dirty, and full of holes I am sure but it took me like 15 minutes tops.

Also I am terrible with words, ******** the haters.

Thank you Tony Stark. lol

Why would you request that?

Vintrict's the main reason to sign up for this.

I highly recommend this.

I should have just requested this in the beginning. Because of Vintrict's bullshit, I can't even take the advice that may have had some merit from him seriously.

Yeah, it is pretty cheap, I was just like "You know, I can't really think of why I would need 16 gigs."

If I ever do need it, I can always just.. buy more RAM.

I wanted 2 TB HDDs too, but that'll have to wait. I couldn't go completely apeshit, since I'm saving most of my money for other s**t. But with my video card finally biting the bullet, I kind of needed a new desktop machine. I was honestly hoping to put it off for like.. seven or eight months, but my card wasn't having any of that.

And now, away. To the one and only night class I've ever taken. Or evening, I guess. Whatever.
