Ball Crashers OOC

[Andrewza]

I took parkour for 2 years before an accident took my ability to perform parkour away from me (at least temporarily) and I can assure you, in parkour you don't just 'land' on your feet to soften the blow of an impact. You tuck into a roll- landing purely on your feet can damage your knees, ankles and a whole plethora of other issues. Training might get you so far, but age will always cause a deterioration in one's ability to withstand physical damage. Considering age and training factors, worse that could happen is that he lands with some sort of leg/back injury- at the very least, he would have somehow managed to get into a roll, mitigating damage and would be unbalanced (i.e liable to fall/slip/tumble at the slightest provocation) in the attempt to stand up quickly to meet whatever attack Gian might send.

I was looking more at the method that solders use to disembark a moving truck. I equate the speed they disembark at slightly faster than the push darth vader gave Ezra and Kanan in the first fight with Vader. In that fight Kanana landed on his feet.


He may very while be injured from the push. The body has the knack of fighting through pain when in Flight or fight mode

I'll suffice for a roll, and him being unbalanced as he stand up to meet Siobhan. I appreciate your cooperation.

 

[Andrewza]

I can do that. Edit will be in a few hours time

 

[Andrewza]

ok I edited is that better?

 

[Gian Greydragon]

I don't see any mention of him being off-balance. He rolled, that's a nice touch, but we agreed he'd be off balance, as in blocking the attack would have more detriment to his balance. I'm not contesting the block at all, that's fine, but he's gonna have a harder time than that.

 

[Andrewza]

I did not out right state it but I did imply it

 

[Gian Greydragon]

Not very clearly, no offense. I don't wanna seem nitpicky, dude, but I doubt with him being off balance, he's gonna be able to guard from one attack, but following up with one of his own. If you remove the counter attack and we'll call it square.

 

[Andrewza]

sure

 

[Andrewza]

ok I am just out of reach on your left flank

 

[Jinan B]

so um... Am I free to post now?

 

[Andrewza]

Your podting does not lock my post from edits. Only if a sith posts can my post no longet be edited

 

[Gian Greydragon]

so um... Am I free to post now?

Yeah, you're good dude.

@Jinan B your defense against 9 bolts fired at different parts of your body is a single sentence in which, I believe, you only mention three. After which you continue running for almost twenty meters before grabbing a pistol (which you fire, running, twenty meters from your target and that's something I know a novice shooter can't do). That's time in which I can just do target practice as an interupt because you're not doing anything in terms of PvP. Better to force me on the defensive and then close the distance than the other way around.

I suggest you read it over and edit it a little. :)

I'll also be without internet this weekend.

 

[Jinan B]

Oh shit, didn't realize your three shots was three shots of three. Will edit just need a bit of time.

Also in the course of my post I went from "just over 20 meters" away from you (your post) to just under 20 meters so I dunno where I ran 20 meters. Just a bit busy so will address in full ASAP

 

[Andrewza]

I might have touch and go or no internet till Friday

 

[Gian Greydragon]

Actually, dudes, it's time for us to submit this for ruling. The three week mark was reached on the 4th. I didn't realize this until just now, but our thread began on the 13th of last month. I'll make the report on the first post shortly.

 

[Jinan B]

doesn't the three week thing start when PvP starts? (which would be the uh...2nd)

Cause like, there's been 2 weeks of buildup, and 1 week of PvP sooo

 

[Gian Greydragon]

It's always been my understanding that it's three weeks after the OP.

 

[Jinan B]

"In the event of an ambush or skirmish occurring mid-way through a thread, the time limit begins at the onset of combat."

I suppose the interpretation is important, but as far as I see it this is a mission that became a battle, as opposed to a pre-defined battle that was such from the OP

 

[Gian Greydragon]

I guess you're right. Lol. Nevermind then.
