Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground CXXVI
I feel I've read one build 5 times over x)
I even read the second entry I wanted to build done better than it would have.
Originality is dead for me x)

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground CXXVI
Thanks for the table Loky. I've grown accustomed to it so much that it doesn't feel like the reveal is done until I see it formatted in your table ^^
Did we have a judge for this comp ? Inevitability maybe ?

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground CXXVI
So, obvious shout-out to the Two Trick Pony, for combining two tricks that we saw repeated elsewhere in the same build - but my HM goes to Chaka, for qualifying in a way that really tickled me, while actually wanting to be a binder regardless. Also, I just like the name. CHAKA! Say it to the tune of "FLOCKA!" from Hard in Da Paint.
I really liked reading your builds. Very well done by everyone, I think. I believe I can make an educated guess as to who built what, even considering the new guys. Looking forward to seeing if I was right, and to reading the judgements of course!

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground CXXVI
I am currently working on judging, 3/10 done. (why are there three whales am I being pranked)
A question to our chair. Chaka's build post contains a build as well as a fully fleshed-out variant with a message directly targeted at me. Which of these should I treat as the final build? Or, if Chaka's creator has no second entry, I will judge both. Until this is resolved, I will work on judging the other entries.
If Chaka's creator has an opinion on the matter, they can share it with the chair via PM.Creator of the LA-assignment thread.
Come join the new Junkyard Wars and build with SLAs and a breath weapon!

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground CXXVI
Kinda surprised one of them isn't a Darfellan.
Characters I've enjoyed playing for more than four sessions:
Falgar the Swiftblade
Revain Sumeth, Whip Fighter Extraordinaire
Malvin Firel, Cleric of Corellon, Destroyer of Undeath
Vongur Dorent, Primeval Champion of Poverty

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground CXXVI
I wonder if seeing Ballisteer primed people subconsciously to think of baleen. Either way Vizzini is crowned as secret winner this round.
Unless I hear anything from the chef, I would say to judge based on the variant build. [EDIT: The chef has weighed in and agreed.]
That would require people to remember Darfellan exists, and then navigate the minefield of whether or not they have the aquatic subtype.Last edited by The Viscount; 2023-05-15 at 06:43 PM.

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground CXXVI
No one wanted a whale, they wanted size increases. Darfellan doesn’t deliver on that front

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground CXXVI
Just looking at a couple of these characters made my head hurt. Good luck to anyone who agrees to judge as well.

No, none of us were altering the unimutable laws of physics. That would be wrong.

Re: Iron Chef Optimization Challenge in the Playground CXXVI
While that's true, and in practice it's harmless to let them have it in actual play, tables are considered secondary sources (the old "text trumps table" credo). In darfellan's writeup as a race on page 37, it is omitted. Clearly an oversight, but I believe that's what the Viscount is talking about.
I've got a new fantasy TTRPG about running your own fencing school in a 3 musketeers pastiche setting. Book coming soon.
Check out my NEW sci-fi TTRPG about first contact. Cool alien races, murderous AIs, and more. New expansion featuring rules for ships! New book here NOW!

I would love to see an actual play by play battle now between the whaler and the whales, see what happens!
