Devil May Cry: 2-A Removal

Not open for further replies.
Hello! Just wanted to let you know that not chilling out is not an option. In fact, chilling out is mandatory if you wish to stay in the wiki. So I implore you to choose  your words wisely. :3
What does the weird emoticon add? All it does it make you come off as incredibly smug and irritating (which, you aren’t, but it still comes off as that), and doesn’t do anything to “chill” Unoriginal out. Just unnecessary imo, especially from a mod trying to keep the peace of the thread.
Man I miss old VsBattles
Same man, same.
 
If everyone agrees that 2a is ****** atm then I gotta ask
Is there being multiple timeline in dws contested or not making. Cuz then wouldn't that make hw 2c too?
The idea that the HW=DW is being contested pretty strongly. 2-A however has been abandoned. That ship has long since sailed.

I appreciate you coming to my defence. However, you need not worry, not even once have I been truly angry in this thread even if annoyed from time to time and any pitiful attempt at inflammatory baiting (direct or indirect) will not be enough to make me truly lose my composure. While I will certainly be more intentional to not let frustration leak into any following responses what I will not do is chill out in the sense of giving up on my points. Especially when I feel there is no reason for me to concede on them despite Clover's best attempts.

Unless evidence of the realms within the DW of them being different space times is shown, nah.
 
Even if the demon world contains universes and space-times inside itself, if anything that would just lend itself to the human world originally being one of those universes. Unless the human world also contained such things it wouldn't mean anything to the human world.

You can be the same size as a realm that contains space time without you yourself containing them

Okay. The "merging" Clover is so fixated on is actually usually referred to as "consuming", the descriptions imply a noteworthy size difference, and at the end of the day Clover's evidence is using selected interpretations of single words whose definition doesn't even match what he says, and his interpretation clashes with the more used word "consume", which unlike split and merge actually does have pretty strong relevance to size. The fact that the demon world contains both finite and infinite dimensions, as well as dimensions stated to be diverged from time, within itself as lesser parts, including a duplicate of the human world, only further exacerbates this issue. Hard to call them equal in size when a dimension that's the same as the human world is contained as a small part of the demon world.

2-C is fine, but we should stick to that. No need to include this exact equal split thing which is clearly just riding on the coat-tails of the 2-A downgrade. Although if implemented it would mean upgrading several upper mid characters to 3-A which would be very shaky.

Update: Clover, are you just planning on doing the 2-A to 2-C adjustment, or are you meaning to upgrade the 4-As to 3-A? If the latter is happening it might be messed up not to mention it in the OP.

I hadn't really considered that part to be honest, though I can't help but wonder why "the world shaking" is considered as referring to the universe as opposed to the planet (in the linked blog, they mention it being a Low 6-B feat, which would be for shaking the planet; I imagine there was a thread on this matter?)

But yeah, my intention was just the 2-A to 2-C adjustment

To be frank, idrc about if hw = dw or not. I am just trynna clarify what size is hw yeeted to

Probably better to make this thread only about that to be honest. This whole equal split argument didn't have to happen at all. Let's be honest here, DDM only mentioned the 2-A stuff, Ant literally only reads staff comments if even that (kind of demoralising knowing you apparently aren't worth reading unless you're staff to be honest) and an infinite human world just doesn't have enough evidence.

https://vsbattles.com/threads/dmc-mid-tiers-re-work.159252/ idk why profiles still link the explanation that say low 6b but here the thread for uni shaking
 
So what all is being downgraded/modified and what are the arguements?
honestly the argument about them being the same size is largely irrelevant (no shade clover)
lordgriffin's container thread says an inf difference in size between a Low 2-C uni and its container as well as said container POTENTIALLY being able to hold infinite universes is not 2-A
we tier it based on how many universes are actually in it (hence why Low 2-C through 2-A are different at all)
DMC's 2-A rating is based on this, so nuke it

I see
 
@CloverDragon03 seems to have given up on the HW=DW take and primarily wants to remove 2-A which was eviscerated due to the container thread.
How convenient. Very convenient.
If it's a standards problem, then it's not our fault. God knows standards here are less reliable and consistent than stock market.

Why did OP drag the entire lore under the train with intelligent takes such as HW=DW? Merging mean both parties must be equal size and all that bullshit? Now I see people questioning the creation story for millionth time with the most convenient takes to suit their agenda.
Now when half baked non researched reasons lead to some unintended upgrades, it's suddenly up in the air again conveniently.
 
Amen to that. I'd daresay American politics is more stable than VSBW standards even at the best of times for this wiki.
Our standards of discouraging political side chatter, and not allowing disruption of CRTs with useless comments, have been remarkably stable, actually. Knock it off.

Given the global chaos, support for genocide and tyranny, and potential World War 3 that absolutely greedy, selfish, malevolent, and conscience-deprived North American politicians are causing currently, compared to the generally mostly well-intended volunteer workers in our little community, this seems like a ridiculously enormous exaggeration... 😑
 
Yes. My apologies. It was just such an extremely absurd statement to make. 🙏

I wasn't trying to get into the nonsense that deep. I was just being a tad too sarcastic. My apologies for not joking in good taste.
 
I can lean towards the downgrade to 2-C given that seems to be the majority proposal method for the 2-A removal.
is that a solid vote in favour of the OP downgrading to 2-C
i only ask because you said leaning, would rather not make assumptions
 
Yes, DDM disagrees with 2A fully; for him, it's more a question of whether it should be Low 1C or 2C, but in that choice, he is leaning towards 2C instead of Low 1C.
More importantly there is no agreement towards the DW=HW option, only that the DW be changed from 2-A. The DW=HW take is the entire reason this thread has lasted so many pages as everyone already accepts that 2-A is indefensible due to recent shifts in standards.
