Removal of Johnny Test's Supernatural Luck

Though if it doesn't get evaluated, then Johnny gets to keep his full on Supernatural Luck...

I think it's a good idea to necro this thread.

I'm mostly neutral, the second clip isn't luck because that chain reaction was seemingly intentional, so it's more of a skill feat rather than luck.
The others are classic gags, but I see that some of them could just be a result of Dark Vegan just being very incompetent.
The armada thing, was given because everyone was sure they would have died, and Dukey's joke about Johnny surviving because he's the mc doesn't really work for fate manip and stuff like that.

What do you think now that the debate is basically finished?
 
Yes. For one that isn't how a limited rating is used at all. It is for abilities that are more limited in their ability to be used or function than they standardly are. Possibly and likely are the ratings given to abilities that have some evidence supporting them but not enough.

Though this lacks such evidence to back even a possibly rating, without any solid statements to confirm that these coincidences are because of being lucky.

@RandomGuy2345 what do you think of this?
 
honestly, i'm gonna have to agree with the change. Supernatural luck can only be given if something/someone is directly stated to be lucky and taken straight from the page "Being lucky or unlucky in itself is not enough to have this ability - a character's exceptional luck must be a real ability or supernatural aspect of them" its never been stated to be Johnny luck that gets him outta situations nor a real ability that is ever brought up by anyone besides when he has the supernatural clover thingy which is directly stated to grant goodluck.

Doesn't this apply to many other verses who don't state anything about a character getting lucky?
 
Adem_Warlock69 said:
Yeah, we gotta remove those

Imho, a verse shouldn't need a statement about a character(s) getting lucky in order for said character(s) to have Supernatural Luck. The absurd amount of bullshit they survive or the amount of bullshit they achieve with sheer luck alone should be enough.

I'm not just talking about the run of the norm "Oh this event happens in this favor for character A", I'm talking about absurd shit that happens in their favor, and I've already shown a few examples of absurd things happening in Johnny's favor. It's not just normal shit.

well make an ability CRT for it cause thats how we accept Supernatural Luck until something is changed because no statements of it means its a no go for that ability :/
 
Johnny's situation is different tho
Since his "Star of the Show" statement probably counts as a Supernatural Luck statement
 
Bruhtelho said:
the Star of The Show thing was dropped cause it was from Dukey who has on several occasions is shown to break the 4th Wall and could of very easily been one of those gags.
Click to expand...
Thing is that specific 4th Wall Break actually gives an explanation as to why Johnny survived the attack that was supposed to kill despite it's gaggy nature, as opposed to his other 4th Wall Breaks, where he's aware of the fact that he's a cartoon character.
 
So what's going on with this thread? Should I just start a new one with some of the explanations seen here? All the mods have agreed to the complete removal, but it seems like a bit of a bitch move to just remove it since a lot of regular users (and the expert on the verse) disagree on their reasoning.

it was since it used to be staff aprove

you need more staff since only 1 disagreed. Also RandomGuy the expert at Johnny test had far more arguments than just single sentence disagreements
 
Board3659 said:
I still think 2 staff isn't enough though when it was previously staff aproved
Click to expand...
You are correct. But do you really think any more staff are gonna join in on the thread? I'm honestly thinking about remaking the thread with more concise points.
