Low Multiverse level revision?

[Kaltias]

I also prefer version 2

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. We should probably go with that then.

 

[Magi_Hussie]

"Macrocosmic" sounds like a better replacement for the Tier 2 section name & shorter too.

Definition: Of or pertaining to the macrocosm (universe).

Macrocosm: "A complex structure, such as a society, considered as a single entity that contains numerous similar, smaller-scale structures."

 

[Antvasima]

I much prefer just calling it Multiversal. It is far more to the point.

 

[Matthew_Schroeder]

Macrocosm is a cringy term.

 

[Magi_Hussie]

@Antvasima You could have named it as "Multiverse" instead of Multiversal" tbh but other than that, Multiverse/Multiversal seems fine for now.

@Matthew Better than Multi-Universal though.

 

[Antvasima]

It is part of the overall naming convention pattern.

 

[Kaltias]

Legitimately I can't name a work of fiction that uses "macrocosm" referring to a collection of different timelines.

Multiversal is simpler and sounds better imo.

 

[Matthew_Schroeder]

TBF "Macrocosm" was popularized by some parts of the Dragon Ball Fandom trying to make their verse more impressive artificially.

 

[Ryukama]

The term macrocosm was coined by Herms back in 2009 because there was nothing else he could use to describe the ball containing the mortal universe, afterlife, demon realm, etc.

No series really refers to a collection of multiple universes as a "macrocosm" though. So I don't think we should use that word for the tiering system.

 

[Kepekley23]

"Macrocosm" is an Ancient Greek word. Don't think Herms could've coined that.

Then again, he has admitted his name is supposed to mirror that of Hermes, the Messenger of the Gods, so maybe...Herms is Hermes? The only Greek God who survived the mass atheism that followed the Renaissance?

OvO

 

[Ryukama]

I obviously mean the term macrocosm as it's used in Dragon Ball. Not the actual word macrocosm itself.

 

[Kepekley23]

I know. Just joking with ya.

Anyway, I used to think "macrocosm" was a synonym of "globe" back in the day due to the fact it was often accompanied by images of the Dragon Ball universe.

 

[Matthew_Schroeder]

I get that the word comes from Greek and that Herms used it for practical reasons.

But it is still super cringy when you see Dragon Ball fans go

"Goku is a Macrocosm Buster"

 

[Kepekley23]

I actually agree with you.

On second thought....macrocosm was a mistake. There's no reason why I should bought that term up when Multiverse/Multiversal is already fine as it is.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. Thank you for being reasonable.

 

[Assaltwaffle]

I see that many characters have gotten revised. Mind editing The God King and The Godwoke? I would but they are locked.

Edit: Thanks ALRF!

 

[Lightbuster30]

I know this is staff only, but could I make a suggestion here? It says that Low 2-C and 2-C aren't quantifiable due to 4D force needing to cross a 5D axis. But isn't that technically already happening? That is: Our Universe is 4 Dimensional, yet 3D power crosses it just fine. It may not affect the axis, but it can travel across it.

My main gripe with this is seeing a few characters who's justification for 2-C is being superior to a bunch of low 2-C's at once, which completely contradicts what the tiering system says.

 

[Assaltwaffle]

Who has that scaling? That certainly shouldn't be a thing.

 

[Antvasima]

No, that is inaccurate scaling. As I keep saying, we have over 14500 pages. It is impossible to make sure that all of them are accurate.
