So howabout it?
Can they somehow be combined?
If I start the round 10 feet above my opponent, fly on over him, and then fall 5 feet (or more), do I activate Battle Jump and then can Pounce.
Can that PLEASE be a thing?

If the horizontal part of your flight still conforms to the restrictions on charging and you have a full-round available to do it, I think this solves the "opponent must be directly below you at the start of your turn" problem that Curmudgeon brought up.
Twisted Charge will only work once per encounter, though. I thought you were using Drunken Master's Stagger?

I think we need to start a rules thread just for you. Maybe call it GhengisConrad Can't Have Nice Things.

Yeah, but Great Fortitude, 5 levels, dodge... it kinda hamstrings me, I'd rather do more 'interesting' things with my build.
I really really really liked my battle jump build until it got torn apart. I disagree so strongly with the ruling by which that occurred, but saying "f*** it I'll play how I want anyway" feels like cheating. Makes me feel dirty.

I can't tell if this is a good thing or a bad thing, or if you're just trying to suggest I create fewer threads.
edit: I wonder what else I am missing on these threads that people write using white text... hrmmmmmmm......

Just teasing.
I'm not sure if I have any useful advice for you at this point, other than the following:
You are making your enjoyment of the game contingent upon convincing a group of people in an internet forum to come to a mutual agreement about something that is worded ambiguously.
I do not see how anything good can come from this.

For me, this is what I enjoy about the game.
Don't worry. I am having a blast already.
Honing my logic and rhetoric skills, researching new and interesting ways to maximize a concept both in argument and in build choices. That's what I enjoy about the game.
Role Playing? pfffftt. Not really all that exciting. You should watch my table; mostly all we do is read the books to one another.
Love it.
I think my table may suffer collectively from some mild form of autism.
