About One-Shots

Okay. I will add it then.
 
Is this acceptable, or is there something that needs to be adjusted before we close this thread?

Unless the stuff regarding outside versus threads simply is done in a case-by-case basis, not really.
 
Okay. What do the rest of you think?
 
I think it would be better to mention that sentence right below the "don't create spite/stomp threads" rule as a second bullet point.
 
Okay. Feel free to move it then.

^ I think it should just be linked to the Stomp Thread page. And the Versus Thread Rules page only redirects to the Spite Thread page on clicking the link, when it should also have a link to Stomp Thread page since it is mentioned there.
 
I just noticed the changes on the one-shot page. I'm not exactly...okay with quantifying the one shot gap. I stand by my statement that fiction is weird like that. At best, I feel like that should garner the person with the 7.5x AP advantage to mollywop the person in h2h.
 
Well, it's strictly for threads, says as such on the page.

It's a rough estimation anyways
 
Yeah, I know. I don't think quantifying a gap for a one shot is okay even for just threads. At best, I'd be okay with having it there to show that like, a casual slap from the one with the AP advantage equals a punch from the weaker
 
As I already said multiple times, a quantifiable gap is needed unless you prefer double standards.

It's a flexible standard, and no one says "7.5 is a one shot no matter the circumstances", but a reference is needed nonetheless.
 
I think now that 7.5 gap is enough to dominate (not stomp) someone in a battle with similar skill, I wouldn't even consider a gap of 20 as stomp, I mean, I doubt that the athlete that "created" the baseline wall level would no sell to attacks made by minor athletes.
 
Pretty sure that the strongest humans in real life are 9-C.

And I don't know you, but i'd definitely say that Mike Tyson stomps an average person

Also, breaking a skull is only twice above baseline wall level, so that's absolutely enough to kill an average athlete, unless they can reliably take punches breaking their bones
 
Under that stipulation, they'd just be particularly resilient to getting oneshoted

Some characters in fiction are like that
 
I think that the 15 kJ comes from an athlete that launched a kick that strongth.

If I recall correctly, the minimal force to break the skull is 1/4 of ton of force, meanwhile the force of a boxxer (if average or league don't remember) is about 340 kg of force, so yes is capable to break the skull (that value do not take into account skin, brain of any other sustance, it do not means that it will completely destroy the head).
