~Xemnas~ Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Logically, there's nothing that you can do to stop him. :/I can't really agree with that. KNI pretty much autokilled Kinvex and there's no way to get away from it.-TeezyYeah, pretty much.... it's kind of annoying. Great, my first character is about to die, and there's nothing I can logically do to stop it... unless someone else helps... *looks over at the rest of the MB group* Help this guy, would you?!Have Kinvex scream, then I can work out a way to save him.Can't really do that- since if I post as Kinvex. he's going to die, according to KNI (he said that the knife would kill Kinvex instantly).

Althought I do remember this rule...Likewise, you cannot kill or seriously injure another character without that player's permissionSo, does that mean Kinvex doesn't die? It's an established fact that another player cannot kill one of your players without your explicit permission. If you do not want one of your characters to die, they cannot be killed.However, this is not an excuse to put your characters in certain-death situations and have them survive simply because of this rule. That's when it turns into godmoding. Make sure you're always playing realistically, regardless of whether or not your character can be fatally wounded.He doesn't die if you don't want him to, but at the same time, I see no logical way he wouldn't be dead by now... :/Also, that rule was really vague when Tuck wrote it: almost all of TNG's chars should have been killed by now because of the sheer amount of severe injuries they've sustained, but he doesn't want them to die, so they just hop back up grinning like madmen a couple hours later. It really should be rephrased somehow...Generally, it's the players' responsibility to ensure that theyt are playing fairly. This includes acknowledging injuries when you recieve them, and giving them the proper amount of time to heal before resuming normal activites. Otherwise, a player can do whatever they want without acknowledging the consequences. If you have a problem with the way someone is playing, PM a staff member.

~Xemnas~ Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 @Nukaya: You're right. I have now resigned myself to Kinvex's fate... then again, it's just a game! I don't care! I'll just wait until someone new posts in Ga-Wahi... then he shall die! Maybe I could have him die like Jaron did... smiling. Yes, maybe that's what I'll do!

Krayzikk Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 It is my considered opinion that there is an issue here. On one hand, KNI did quite distinctly deal a serious realistically speaking probably mortal, wound. And it was acknowledged by Xemnas. But on the other hand, KNI does not have permission to kill, but there is no logical way for Kinvex to live. I think that the rules might need to be reconsidered a bit by the staff to avoid this in the future.The point is now moot, but the staff might want to consider this.

Since such a thing is seriously autohitting?KNI mentioned, and Xemnas agreed, that a wound should be dealt. Kinvex didn't have a way to avoid it. That in and of itself is pretty common. However, the extent of the wound was never discussed, and when Kinvex shocked Yuru, KNI made it so Yuru brought the blade down, thus dealing the wound that resulted in this discussion. After that, Xemnas proabaly should have said that he didn't want a mortal wound, and if KNI disagreed, taken it to PM.

Relapse Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 ...Glove, please, take your precious time actually reading the argument before throwing in a rather ignorant two cents. What you said has been said. Fifteen posts ago. :)While it did hit the shoulder, I stated he began front the wound and slicing down through the skin. If Kinvex didn't want to hit, they would've been cool when Yuru first attempted to slice him. He had a spear in his hand. I'm totally against auto hitting. What he did do was strike him on a hit confirmed with Kinvex and continue that. However, Xemnas still chose not to block it with that spear.I mean, at this point, he's been shredding at him for five-ten minutes in game.
