=So the antimagic field is only half-baked? IV is immune to its effects and is suddenly a sunwalker? Whatever the case, the unnamed might giggle being tickled by this pitiful being, but he just doesn't seem to express emotions. Instead. The unnamed looks at the pulsating, white-hot globe. One final warning? Would the puny intelligence within the beast even listen? Then he looks to his left arm. The chain seems to be half-unraveled; the tip now touching the ground. The unnamed also seems to be gaining altitude, almost to his original position in the sky.=

I'd warn you again, but it seems you and your Dominion are too primitive to understand what is going on.

The antimagic field was indeed absolute, but in being absolute granted the beast a sort of control that went far beyond the norm. The skull reformed itself as the antimagic field fluctuated once more, IV's weight and strength increasing by a factor of two once more. At this point not even a metal such as adamantium would stand against his overwhelming strength, much less resist being crushed like softened butter in the hand of a grown man. How could the unnamed opponent stand against such incredible strength when magical reinforcement simply did not exist? The Walker's body twisted while still crushing and biting, the lower half whipping up to plant a kick in the other's face in a rather entertaining show of contortionism.

=There is no reinforcement. Rather. IV took away all restraints. The unnamed lets out what might be mistaken for a sigh and bows his head in yet another sign of pity.=

Primitive.

=The chains are nearly off, revealing all the way up to the upper arm of the unnamed. He also seems to easily shrug off the monstrous grip. As half the chains coil on the ground beneath them, a deafening silence fills the arena. Its almost like something just sucked all the energy to a single point. The globe pulsates once more as it grows insurmountably bright. In the short interim between the globe becoming bright and what happens next, another event of note occurs. A single card, with a picture of the ace of spades, falls from the unnamed and lands in such a way that it might betray that it has a bit of weight to it. It displaces landmass and sinks into the ground much the same way a sword might when landing on its point.=

=Unless IV is
magically reinforced, the globes truth is going to hurt. It explodes in a brilliant flash that should only belong to a star going critical. The implosion should be more than enough force to cripple most beings. The unnamed, holding the staff that once safely contained this globe, doesn't seem to flinch; though, his hair and some of the feathers of his pairs of wings are drawn to it...before the cascading effect of such a force takes its second stage. The outward force of an explosion. The time between the two too little for any to prepare for. Unless, that is, one had already prepared. The unnamed moves several pairs of wings to shield his body from the explosion. If IV somehow manages to maintain his kick, that kick might land just before the wings become as shields, but it will be too late for IV to defend himself at that point.=

Just as the unnamed seemed to be shrugging off enough crushing power to turn Dwarven Blackrock to a fine powder or Darksteel sheets into crumpled paper the beast seems to weather the storm just fine. That incredible heat the unnamed kept insisting had to be melting the poor man had temped his body and made superman lok like a computer nerd with a cold. The kick would indeed continue and would strike before the wings were in place. Sure, he'd be missing chunks of flesh and most, if not all, of his clothing, but if all that power was all the unnamed had to offer in a simple fight, he'd find fighting the beast a war of attricion he could not win. The grip continued, though he would most likely have now covered the unnamed being with blood.

Below, the card would hit the blood and vanish. The card would have no way of stopping the means by which it is removed from the match due to the antimagic field and the unnamed would have no way to retrieve it.

=Except, of course, that the blood would be vaporized by the explosion. Unless, of course, this "antimagic" field is just using the term "antimagic" to try and explain why all natural occurances that can't be comprehended by the primitive IV and Dominion and "supernatural" occurances are quelled...as long as they belong to the unnamed. As long as this hypocrisy continues, the unnamed would remain unaffected by anything this peon tried. It is kind of interesting that nothing the unnamed has done has been "supernatural" in anyway since that mana surged over his body, which did have an effect just before the "antimagic" field overtook him.=

The chance for an explanation of the basis behind the antimagic field was offered but outright refused, and thus the explaination of its traits is not needed. The previous mention of utmost control of the field by IV should give insight to its greater effects, almost like the absolute territory of a true psychic being. The fact that IV was now several dozen tons in weight and had strength enough to crush the most resilient metals into scraps and powder is something that should seem highly unusual given the supposed effects of the field. The previous disorientation effect was indeed generated by the field, a fluxuation between two states of magic availability. IV was slowly gaining more mastery over the field and would soon be able to use the field much like he would his own blood for the casting of spells, despite being in an "antimagic" field. Perhaps the refusal of an explaination shouldn't have been given. No matter how incredible the construction of the unnamed man The Walker had only benefitted from the blast, energy components flooding his blood in a momentary fluxuation and reinforcing his own frame in the process. The unnamed individual could be as god-like as he pleased, but IV wasn't going to sit down and die, wasn't going to give it up, and certainly wasn't going to release the man from his ever growing strength.

((You mean I log on to see this *****?! Oh no, no, no, no, no. I'm not letting you run away from these consequences so easily. It's either an antimagic field or a psychic domain. I don't care if the antimagic field is created because of the psychic domain! It can't be both because the unnamed can't be affected by things that alter his temporal space, such as forced teleportation or psychic domains. That means the antimagic field would become invalidated because the psychic domain nulls within about a two-foot "bubble" around him. You need to cut this ***** of changing the rules every time it suits you.))

((You wanna know the reason I "refused" to see your definition of an antimagic field? I was willing to give you the benefit of the doubt that you wouldn't pull this ***** again. I was willing to give you the benefit of the doubt that when you said it was an antimagic field you meant it was an antimagic field. If you meant psychic domain, that's what you ***** should have said! At least I give the requisite information to determine what my character may be doing, either through hints or direct description. I don't go renaming things ambiguously so their purpose can't be determined.))

((I said it operates similarly to the territory of a pure psychic, not that it was the absolute territory effect. Note the word almost stuck in there, it does wonders. I never once stated that it was a pure antimagic field as per the D&D spell and even supplied hints that it was not as it seemed. At the effect's core it is a ressonance effect that alters frequencies, neutralizes mana curves, and creates static in the divine connection, not to mention a few other effects specific to IV. This is the way I've been doing antimagic the entire damned tournament and you're the only one thats raised a big stink about the magical nullification effects. I've been giving you the benefit of the doubt even having your supposed sphere of uber energy when the field itself is meant to nullify energy gradients and convert frequencies to static. Its not my fault you pissed him off enough to bleed out that much and are giving him time to increase his control over the blood outside his body. I've been telling you that you should actually fight instead of playing your little games for the entire fight, and now you've got a several dozen ton monstrosity clinging to you that is almost ready to start casting "spells" again. I'm still curious as to how your character kept them both aloft with that much weight.))

((That ball of "uber energy" was only released because I thought you were adequately describing the state of the field by saying "antimagic" because it is "supernatural" controls that were holding that globe in check. If you'd been paying attention, I mentioned that several ***** times! It was something that physics can explain and theoretically create but not control thus it's never experimented on (and therefore I doubt you'd even fathom a guess as to what it is). Even similiar to an psychic domain, it still alters the temporal space around a given area to create the effects you are mentioning! That's why I'm ***** complaining! If you'd adequately described the antimagic effect as being a psychic effected created through the bounds of a "similar to psychic domain" rather than calling it an antimagic field, we wouldn't be to this ***** point!))

((FYI: If this is a psychic domain or "similar to aforementioned", then IV "suddenly" becomes normal weight within the "bubble" around the unnamed due to the fact that temporal/space cannot be altered "on" him. I'll also state that a certain pair of wings are natural but appear "ethereal" due to effects that physics, even if a bit on the quantum side, can perfectly explain.))

((So in other words your character is immune to frequencies. I'll let that slide the next time you start screwing up radio transmissions and the like simply by standing around. I've not actually changed your character's "temporal space" as you suggest. The comparison comes from the fact that psychics utilize their absolute territory to alter frequencies and change the fundamanetal laws of physics within their range of influence to how they dictate it should operate. You're focusing too much on the fact it is compared to a psychic domain without realizing that I've only compared it to half of what a psychic domain does, if even that. The other effects of a psychic domain would most definately be nullified by your "bubble," but I highly doubt you go around ******** up TV reception.))

((I would offer you a way around this, but should I offer you money you'll play the man of honor and take umbrage. Seriously, even should you win this fight the chances of you fighting me again in this branch are incredibly high. Plus, do you really think that any future fights you have will even be worth your time? Look at how much stress this fight alone is causing. Potential gains compared to potential losses and the experiences along the way do not look promising to anyone involved in GTB at all. Jello, for one, has outright forfeitted with most his characters because of the horrible experience that is GTB. I, personally, do not care and as I am filler my purpose is to weed out those who do not care and will not make it to the end. So I ask you, do you really have the desire to possibly fight me in each of the following rounds, should your luck be that bad?))

((Stress? Dude. You ain't ever juggled babysitting, college (specifically physics), a job, and a few other crazy things before. Have you? If this were stress, I'd live off it.))

((In other words, you went and called this an "antimagic" field without taking into account that my character has already used his abilities to alter the electromagnetic spectrum? Oh! That's right! You still think your "insta-link" was valid! Tch. I should really take that into account here. Huh? Whatever the case. The unnamed, as a "self", doesn't "go around ***** up TV reception." No. Though his staff certainly does...if not, well you know, surrounded by those arches I had slowly peeling off for...specific reasons (including the fact that "one to two round strip-away" would be...not kosher). In the end. I'm really saying that my posts are ***** invalid because of a rename that had nothing to do with the intended ability.))

((Also. You know. Admitting that a judge is acting as "filler" to "weed out those who do not care" is just about the same as admitting the primary reason I didn't like the prospect of this match. Those types of "participants" are only here to use strong-arm tactics to ensure "nobody" wins so the propriator/host doesn't have to hand out prize money. You know. I could care less if I have to fight any more of your characters or not. Heavy odds speak to them being not so living, diefic wannabes, and/or collective powers. It probably just means altering how the staff reacts per match. That is if you don't use your powers as a judge to remove me from the GTB.))
PostPosted: Mon Jan 15, 2007 10:02 pm


((The ability to actively alter the electromagnetic spectrum and the passive nullification of whateverthehell you don't like are two entirely seperate things. The frequency modulation of the field disables the ability to generate extremely high level brain functions and instinctual responses. Furthermore, even if you could somehow retain control of whatever you decide to throw at me, the effect would disable anything pushing past your cute bubble. This is only enhanced by the streaming modulation that refuses to remain at a constant such as to disallow adaptation.))

((As to the judge bit, remember, I was a participant MONTHS before I was promoted to the status of judge and crew member. It was my choice to be filler before GTB even started MONTHS before there was any incling that I might be suitable for crewmanship. I'm not admitting that I'm playing the enforcer, I'm telling you that you seem to think I'm trying to kick people out because I don't want anyone to win. Thats hardly the case. I've always wanted to win and now that Gelmax has been long gone, I don't see anyone who can stop my large number of characters. And if someone can get past the deluge, fine, by all means, they can have the prize money. This has nothing to do with me being a judge.))

((Oh, and I have. Try job, business (now complete with law-based fun), psychopath future in-laws with knives, and the rest of fun that is daily life. The idea was that I'm trying to offer you a way to not let a mere game add onto things you must worry about. Seems you'd rather play the brigand and attack me.))

((I'll apologize this response took so long. Had some physics to take care of.))

((I'm arguing against the ambiguous rename of "frequency alteration" to "antimagic field" when the two are not mutually inclusive. It's the frequency alteration that causes antimagic-like effects. Unless I'm utterly mistaken. That ambiguous rename causes everything after, if I reevaluated the circumstances correctly, the mana surge to be invalid. The ability to actively alter the electromagnetic spectrum and passive nullification of space/time effects are within the bounds of the type of effects you, ultimately, described.))

((FYI: The staff doesn't need a message from the unnamed to do anything about the electromagnetic spectrum in the area. In fact. The unnamed doesn't even know about a third of the actions the staff is taking. I guess you didn't pick up on those hints either?))

((I didn't say you were here to kick people out. Now did I? I merely pointed out that something you said was "just about" the same thing as a thought I had entering a match against a judge. If you combine that with the apparent strong-arm tactics, it kinda makes things, well, suspicious.))

((It's good to know that you have some idea. However. "attack" and "dig for information" are mutually exclusive and feel a whole lot similar.))

((The general name of antimagic field is used so I don't have to go into a long winded explaination of the metaphysics of an effect that can be explained with two words. Most people accept the nature of the field and we all get on with our lives instead of bickering for pages on end. You seem to think that one or the other cannot accomplish the goals I have set forth, when in fact they are both simply the same mechanism with different and/or more precise explainations.))

((Okay. By your logic...))

(("A field frequency modulation, affecting the electromagnetic spectrum, creates an effect very similar to an antimagic field and quickly overtakes the boundaries set for the arena." is long winded? Wait! You must be assuming I'm an idiot who can't take hints from that, read into things, and realize what you're refering to? Instead you want to make a long winded explaination in a PM? I'd rather you save the hassle and tell me what you ***** mean rather than waste both of our time.))

((I really don't care what "most people" think. This is the here and now. This is a fact you've gotta face. I'm not trying to bicker. I'm trying to bring up points to get a ***** issue resolved while, maybe, having some fun with it by pointing out how many times this kind of flaw has arisen in due course.))

((Also. They can't be the same mechanism. In an antimagic field, the caster and opponent are both affected equally as it doesn't affect the time-space around either, it doesn't contradict with inborn resistances or immunities, and it doesn't have psychic tendrils that can affect it on a whim. Your field can be affected by IV on a whim. It's either psychic in origin, such as a psychic domain which can't affect the unnamed to begin with, or something which can have countermeasures against it. You stated frequencies and modulations in the electromagnetic spectrum which, guess what?, my character has already displayed the ability to ***** with. You, so nonchalantly, stated that the only way my character could affect this field was if he could do just that.))

((I'll condense this into as few words as possible. If it is not an antimagic field, it is not an antimagic field.))
