  • 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.

    Hey, could you evaluate this very simple calc for Golden Ball from OPM? I commented that we should use 610 j/ccm below since Golden Ball is being thrown into a building, which use reinforced concrete and not regular concrete. It's super helpful because we doing a CRT for the lower tiers and Golden Ball was about to be downgraded due to a lack of feats as were many others, but this would make scaling more concrete (pun somewhat intended) and consistent.

    By the way, just as a "defense"... I have no agenda, or narrative to push. I'm literally on this site to talk about fictional characters statistics, and why I think they're rated the way they are. I mentioned from the beginning of the thread that lots of people make weird comments like this off site, and that was like... the only one that I remembered, so.

    Me pointing that out isn't some strategically timed attack, I don't know these people. But if those are the jokes that everyone giggles at, maybe I'm the clown for not seeing the humor, right? I'm just saying this, since I wouldn't like the agenda pushed that I'm trying to get people banned.

    I also don't really like you either, so I don't take offense to the "**** you" tag I got.

    I didn’t see it as a joke, I thought it was literal. I’m not usually around those jokes, nor people who make them, so seeing so much of it in one space was actually overwhelming. But I guess humor differs from person to person.

    I apologize for my jumping the gun, as you’re one of her close friends, and I’m not tough enough to say I don’t care about what wasn’t my intention.

    I'm not Mori's close friend. I saw you misunderstanding everything and presenting it as a genuine report, in a totally unrelated thread, and I got angry. I get angry a lot, recently, so you have my apologies, too.

    Yeah. It was never my intention to oust her in that way, I just don’t get satirical jokes and dropped that kind of stuff from myself long ago. Thank you for understanding.

    While I was willing to work on the verse at some point, and I mean this in the nicest way possible, how the verse's been handled on the wiki makes me disinterested in dealing with it. Wish ye luck, lad.

    Hello, I was looking at the Shadows of the Damned AP calculation and I realized, wouldn't it be better to calculate it with fragmentation? The chunks seem way too big to use vfrag to me. I could also use some volcanic rock's destruction values if I do recalc it.

    Hey Bambu! Sorry to bother you (again) but I had a quick question.

    A friend of mine sent me an offsite calculation of his using Kinetic Energy with wind.
    In context, 2 large characters swing their weapons and it sends a shockwave. A character blocks it and it creates a cylinder shaped shockwave that travels throughout the air, and they used Kinetic Energy w/ an assumed timeframe like other Kinetic Energy calcs on our wiki.

    I wanted to know if this method was a valid method for shockwaves, or if it's wrong.
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    If I'm understanding what you're saying correctly, yes, if it has a defined shape of air that's being moved, that is fine.

    Hey! I was wondering if you would be interested in a Revision of Sekiro's 8-B feat with the Great Serpent since datamining the models has revealed the snake to be 470 meters long!

    I think I'll try and redo pixel scaling on the full great Serpent picture to see if we can yield something more accurate
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    Mmhmm.

    Feel free to do so, if you like. If you end up publishing it as a new blog, I'd be happy to eval, though if it doesn't yield much different results I probably shouldn't, since it'd still be basically the same as mine.
    Naito-desu
    Naito-desu
    Here it is, I made a typo it's 470 meters not 490, but the thickness of the snake is much larger than we thought so this is still a pretty hefty upgrade for mid-game wolf

    Hello, sorry to bother you, in the Mha Top Tiers thread it was suggested to change Deku's tornado calc with a standard explosion formula, so I did and got 8-A results, the method is simple but a small evaluation would be appreciated.

    Heya! I see that you’re a supporter from the Warhammer 40K verse, could you give a response here?

    Thanks in advance!
    Mr. Bambu

    I apologize but I'm not really a lore guru. I've played a couple of the games and dabbled in some other areas of the lore, but I have no idea about the greater verse.

    Hey Bambu

    I'm currently in the process of making another Warcraft CRT, which the main thing is to get tiering in check because the Low 7-B+ feat was performed by Cataclysm Thrall, who was certainly not tier 7 at the time but High 6-B, I am currently in the process getting the scan for Thrall just replacing the aspect of earth in a fight against the thing I can't remember the name of, which the feat was I believe in Twilight of the Aspects or The Sundering, but before I waste everyone's time by making it I want to make sure with you that the feat might actually be legit or an outlier on Thrall's end, since I definitely can see it being an outlier since Thrall later on was pretty much threatened by Ragnaros

    though granted Ragnaros might just scale to High 6-B due to fighting the Titan Keepers which are definitely High 6-B because they powered The Dragon Aspects, though i think the downscaling is enough to put those that would downscale at 6-B+ taking Malygos's 105 Teratons(though it isn't accepted yet) into account
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    Low 7-B is also storm feats. The book is Twilight of the Aspects, I actually read that one some time ago. I recall what you're talking about. Myriadofmemes will argue the rank alone doesn't imply AP, I personally think its fine. At least for a possibly.

    Just make sure you do your homework before making it. Lots of scans and such. You may want to work with Udlmaster, if you'll recall I had actually suggested he take up the mantle of Warcraft revisions. He occasionally sends me small updates so presumably he's still working on it.
    DaReaperMan
    DaReaperMan
    yep, while Thrall's profile needs some SERIOUS work as probably the worst or second worst Warcraft profile I'm pretty sure Udlmaster is covering that in his CRT

    though Udlmaster hasn't been active in over 2 weeks on the wiki so I have no idea on whether it is still happening or not
    DaReaperMan
    DaReaperMan
    My biggest issue here will be getting the scan of Thrall actually pulling off the feat, but i should be able to pull it off

    Aight thanks ^-^
    I ofc used rectangular prism for simplicity's sake, but also cuz it's a fairly safe lowball while not downplaying it too heavily, since, while the added volume from those dome-shaped protrusions in the middle and the spikes on the side would add a fair amount of mass, it wouldn't push it past Class 100 and into Class K or anything.
    Also I noticed you used 8050kg/m^3 for steel in your Bramd calc. Should I switch to that value instead?
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    Your value is fine as well, 8050 is just normally used. Your end is just the low-end of density.

    Hey Bambu a question : how it works Lizardfolk's adaptation,subjective reality and reality warping?
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    Adaptation IIRC is largely just due to them being able to survive in particularly dangerous habitats.

    Subjective Reality and Reality Warping are just what magic is in D&D. Subjective Reality, more specifically, comes from divine magic, wherein belief in an ideal causes them to manifest powers.

    checking in with you to appraise the kind of fixed Galakrond profile, frankly I'm tempted to drop him down to Class K but Galakrond is probably the character I have the least knowledge on for Warcraft

    I feel like we definitely had a speed calc for Deathwing at one point

    I requested the Cataclysm opening to be calced, never did happen to my knowledge
    Mantidil
    Hello. Would you be willing to evaluate either of these calcs? Your help would be much appreciated.
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    I'll try to take a look.
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    For the second one you're probably better off trying to get one of the other two CGMs to come back to it.

    Hey Bambu, we're trying to find the speed of Elder Centipede without using outdated large size calcs, this is for a KE equation. Elder Centipede's best speed feat is being able to intercept a fired plasma beam before it could travel very far. Of course, plasma has no set velocity by itself. Do you know of any plasma-based weaponry/tools we could use to scale the speed of this beam? I suggested using a plasma cutter, but I don't know if that comparison would pass muster
    XSOULOFCINDERX
    Hey, so the Dark Souls Mid-Tiers were supposed to get their 6-C Rating replace with High 6-C because their Calc was Updated with that but it hasn't been done yet. Can you help KLOL and I out?
    Zensum
    Hi Bambu!
    If you don't mind I have a quick question about probability manipulation potency standards.
    I know the potency can be determined on certainty like characters who can turn a 0% chance to 100%, but can it also be determined on how many possibilities a character can control?
    For example, would Othinus or the Transcendence who can passively manipulate infinite possibilities to 100% have greater potency than a character who can just place one possibility to 100%?

    There's a dispute here and it looks like it would be best for a mod opinion. Thanks!
    Mr. Bambu
    Mr. Bambu
    Oh, damn.

    I don't really have a good opinion for this- I think both are equally as potent and affecting more is more akin to range rather than strength.
    Zensum
    Zensum
    Gotcha thanks anyways!

    Mr._Bambu I am terribly sorry to bother you, but I have a calculation question, if someone dodged a bullet that was moving at 2800 feet per second from a 100 yards away the moment it touched the side of their head would their reaction speed be Mach 568?.

    Mr. Bambu
    Well. I need to point out one major thing, this isn't usable for VSBW in any capacity since it relies on WoG from Twitter, something we famously don't use anymore due to Death of the Author and egregious inconsistencies with written works. So immediately I need to state, my insight here is working under just looking at the math and not approving it for on-site use.

    Without a proper scan, I'm forced to assume he took an insane high-ball in terms of distance moved of the bullet (4 mm, the thickness of the skin). He has no backing for this. It's an insane base assumption. The head is less insane but still pretty nuts- basically these assumptions say they only started moving in the literal nanosecond the bullet was upon him. Like it was essentially touching him.

    If we were to continue accepting the false assumptions and bad usage of Word of God, then yes, the fundamental math of dividing is correct (though he hides it behind using initially bad units, like why is he using feet?)

    Hi Mr Bambu, Ourosboros made an updated version of a calc with a method you recommended in this thread could you please give some feedback in the thread on weather the new calc should be used over the old one. Thanks

    is

    is this still the one punch stuff

    you help anime once and they keep coming back this is worse than the stray cats oml
