Hello,How are you all, I suppose you already know me and you will know other threads that I made, but this time, I have a feeling that this could go well.
to the theme:
Now, I've noticed that wiki speed tiering has been around for at least as long as the wiki has existed (a decade ago) and I've noticed that, while it's good, it's also wrong in some ways...the FTL speeds.
(but first will go with sub-relativistic speed)
ok, sub-relativistic speed shouldn't exist, considering that, well, it's nonsense, since it could be said that anyone who is below 1% of the speed of light would automatically be sub-relativistic, but also, relativistic can perfectly be 1% to 10% of that speed.
and relativistic+ could be from 10% to 50% and sub-FTL will be 50% to 99% of the speed of light.
now with the FTL speeds
Now, I don't have any problem with the names, FTL+-massively FTL-massively FTL+, no, I don't have a problem with that, I have a problem with the levels respectively,because,there is no difference between a level or another,is the same difference,is a 10 times difference,like any other level below FTL,which is not logical,considering that MFTL+is 1000 times faster than light,and is still taking it 100 years to travel all the galaxie(which is pretty if is the maximum not infinite or immeasurable speed level)
and this is more bad,considering that,in comparison to AP and LS,is pretty considerable to some point,the levels of difference are remarkable and consistent with the level of a character in comparison,for example:
the difference between planet level and star level is like 279342250,2 times(which detonates the difference between a planet and a star)and the difference between star level and galaxy level is also pretty remarkable,being of 1.42E+20 times.
So, taking that into account, I decided to put a new level on FTL+, massively FTL and massively FTL+ (using AP as a clear reference point):
considering that FTL is able to travel 7 times earth in less than 1 second.
FTL+will be this: travel around the entire solar system in one second,the diameter of the solar system 143.73 billion km (correct me if i'm wrong)which the speed will be:
476000 times faster than light.
MassivilyFTL will be this:travel around the galaxy in one second,the diameter of the galaxy is 100,000 light-years(9.46 trillion kilometers per light year),which the speed will be:
3.15E+12 times faster than light(or 3.15 trillion times faster than light)
MassivilyFTL+will be this:travel around the universe in one second,the size of the universe is 93 billion light years,which the speed will be:
2.93E+18 times faster than light(2.93 quintillion times faster than light)
now, you may wonder, those numbers are too big, oh, that seems impossible to achieve, but in fiction, it is often noticed how some characters reach cosmic speeds, or some manage to be FTL through timing beyond traveling around the earth..
or the fact that sometimes in fiction characters can be thousends or even millions of times faster than light,without even traveling a galaxy or to another star system.
In addition, this is not like making many changes, it is very simple in fact, all the characters that were or are FTL+, massively and massivelyFTL+ will simply have their FL speed lowered (except the massivelyFTL+ if they managed to do the requirements of MassivelyFTL+.
so with all of this,waiting for responses.

. Basing the new tiers off arbitrary values like traveling around the solar system or a galaxy instead of the literal physical constants like the speed of sound and speed of light we already use is kinda dumb
