revisions about the chicxulub impactor AP

[R4ndomPlayer315]

so i found out that the 2014 estimates of the chicxulub impact aren't really peer reviewed mainly because the website itself (arxiv) isn't peer reviewed. this means that the 1.3*10^24 - 5.8*10^25 joules value is dubious.

so we might have to use this energy value (3*10^23 joules) as this is peer reviewed (https://pages.uoregon.edu/leif/resources/papers/GSAB_2015_Richards.pdf).

edit:
I forgot to put the value in joules.

 

[It_is_i_wyatt]

(3*10^23)

what tier is this, i assume its in joules?

 

[R4ndomPlayer315]

Yeah, it is in joules

 

[It_is_i_wyatt]

so what tier

 

[R4ndomPlayer315]

so what tier

6-B, Country Level+

Yeah it never made sense to me that the theoretical energy released by this was 1/10th the energy needed to surface wipe the planet

tbh, i'd agree

Using the peer-reviewed estimate seems better.

the 2014 estimate also seems to be hosted on a harvard affiliated site, dont know if this changes anything https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2014arXiv1403.6391D/abstract

the astrophysics data system doesn't just contain peer-reviewed studies, it also contains non peer-reviewed studies.

You should only bump a thread once every 24 hours.

As a note, this value isn't from 2015. Its from a source in the late 90s using comet impact data to hypothesis what the meteor would do.

So for the new stats, I think it should be:

Attack Potency: 6-B, Country level+ (The impact event yielded approximately 72 teratons of TNT equivalent. It caused rapid acidification of the Earth’s oceans and long-lasting global climate changes and ultimately caused a global extinction event that wiped out 75% of all species.)

Thoughts?

Toichiro vs Impact Meteor when?

 

[R4ndomPlayer315]

Toichiro vs Impact Meteor when?

idk

 

[Comiphorous]

Toichiro vs Impact Meteor when?

the courier vs Chicxulub Impact Event remake when?

 

[Antvasima]

This seems like an uncontroversial change.

@Ugarik @KLOL506 @Armorchompy @DMUA @Jasonsith @Spinosaurus75DinosaurFan @Therefir @Migue79 @DemonGodMitchAubin

What do you think?

 

[Armorchompy]

Yeah that seems very fair

 

[Therefir]

I also agree with this change.

 

[KLOL506]

Seems fine.

 

[CloverDragon03]

Makes sense

@DontTalkDT @Executor_N0 Thoughts?

 

[DontTalkDT]

Sounds ok

 

[R4ndomPlayer315]

Welp, I guess there's gonna be changes to the stats of Monsterverse Ghidorah, MCU Ultron, and Mega-Kaiju.

We still have his High 6-C Tunnel digging feat so it won't change his tier

i meant ghidorah’s environmental destruction

 

[Shmeatywerbenmanjenson]

Ah, ok

 

[Antvasima]

This change has been accepted and can be applied then. Is anybody here willing to handle it please?
