Glossing over this calc, I can’t wrap my head around what the method used here is. Why exactly were Earthquake formulae used for this? The calc used seems to severely undermine the feat, given that a far more accurate approach (which’d yield results several orders of magnitudes higher + much more in-line with the Earth-split statement) of calculating the feat would be analysing the amount of debris displaced/dispersed into infinity as the 3 Viltrumites exited the planet. I would make a blog and link it, but I’m new here so I’m not exactly sure how to.

I wanna make a blog to post, but I’m not used to the formatting and not sure how to actually put one up properly. You mind if you can post one in my stead if I send the stuff to you?
I'm currently in the midst of taking some exams so I can't do that atm. We could look at it after a week or so, but do keep in mind I have never made one.

There you can see how the initial impact generated large movements in the Earth's crust, which is why the Earthquake formula was used.

Thread has been concluded either way since a new calc w/ a higher end is being used now

But that’s still dumb asl. The shockwave of their impact causes massive displacement across the crust. Use earthquake formulae riddled with assumptions makes it a lowball

Does assuming the magnitude of the strongest earthquake on the rim seem like "a lot of assumptions" to you?
