What's that card Alison is holding though...? I wonder what her plan is.

I hope not! But remember the context for the card in THIS chapter, when Cio is teaching Allison how to use the Art.

I'm sure this is why Allison mourned there wasn't enough time for her plan, and it makes sense that because her intent was using sorcery that it would both be unreliable and something White Chain wouldn't like.

I hope she magicks the poo poo out of gently caress.

Think I am sad because I had a concept for the dumb OC tournament (cool samurai who uses telekinesis to wield 8 katanas at once so they can drink tea while they fight) but I can't draw very good yet so I didn't bother.

one of the accepted characters is a 2d stick woman who can make other people into stick people. I think he enjoys fun and entertaining concepts over super high skill.


that said that person still draws way better than I can so I'll shut up.

If Allison doesn't elbow drop someone from the top rope while they're realigning their chakras, shouting "I! AM! RUUUUDE!" as she does it... well, she's no Ray Smuckles.

The general response to "I have a great idea but no time to turn it into a full-fledged one-person creative work" is in fact "try to run it in a RPG" yes. Go check out the tabletop subforum.

Am I the only one who thinks battle royale is a much easier format to cheese your way through than duels?

Just run away from everyone while taking every opportunity to shank the most distracted looking fighters from behind, before you know oh hey everyone's dead, a winner is me


Maybe that's the point though, and Dave thought Gog had rigged the fights against Allison :iiam:

I do honestly wonder if Solomon changing the rules will hurt his image in the eyes of his citizens. He is physically the law and has, from what I can tell, done this by being rigid as gently caress (and being able to move stars). Will cracks in that image cause revolts?

Probably not, cause he still seems the most stable of the gods to be ruled by

It seems kinda unlike Sol, to throw his meticulously planned tournament of grand standing out of the window and let it divulge into an unorganized brawl.
If I had paid to sit in the audience I'd be kinda annoyed at this development. Also, I bet there are a loot of bookies who have to explain their really angry customers that all bets are invalid now. But I guess Slomo isn't really huge on gambling in his totalitarian paradise, anyway.

I'm sure he had this twist planned from the beginning. He's doing it because he knows Alison was there - like when he had Zaid on TV with him, that was clearly to bait Alison.

... In fact, he DEFINITELY had it planned, he built the arena like that to begin with.

He could give less of a poo poo what the audience thinks, they wouldn't dare question his decisions, and even if they did his goals are more important to him.
