The commoners thread: Discussing Ultima's "On the Many, Many Incoherences of the Tiering System"

It would be real to us from a dimensional perspective, but to these presumed characters of a higher state of being, it would relegate the structure of dimensional space to the ranks of fiction. I don't think there is a paradox, simply a scenario where all values of dimensions are made irrelevant. The tiering comes from the observers being powerful enough to treat something that under real world principles should be a scale in the way that we with the same real world scale treat actual fiction.

Having said that, I can already see a tidal wave of revisions trying to upgrade or downgrade things after this thread. Mercy on the staff's souls.
True but thats requiring we assume the lower level is akin to us rather than the higher level.
 
I dont think so. But i would like to make immeasurable speed thread for discussing repetitive question/observation or clarification.
wait a sec, this still not finished ??
I would greatly appreciate it if you stopped trying to make staff discussions at the moment. There's literally hundreds of threads in the backlog, and I only managed to start earnestly making a dent in them this week and wouldn't want you to add more to the pile.

Actually i want to make immeasurable speed thread on general discussion for chit-chat and other repetitive stuff. Not on staff discussion Unless i misunderstand your comment.

If every verse that is currently Low 1-C to High 1-B is getting upgraded to 1-A, then we’re pretty much losing a lot of match potential considering the ban on 1-A matches for their varying layers.

Though, I’m not knowledgeable on tier 1 sooo…

Geez, from my experience with megaten matches it only takes one layer above baseline 1-A to make a match fly south into stomp territory. And guessing a verse's layers is like paying taxes, your just expected to just know off the profile alone.

The ban on 1-A and 0 matches was removed long ago.
 
The worst part about this not being accepted is that Ultima had thoroughly discredited the current system, working within a broken system doesn’t sit right with me.

So I hope some changes come as a result of this
 
TBH I wouldn't mind if we just removed tiering by R>F altogether and just applied Reality Equalization regardless of cosmological position, but that also comes with issues regardless.

I consider that a bit too radical for this revision. I'll look towards handling this with the other staff later.
