For a small sound burst to be he would have to be moving at the speed of sound, or faster. While I can't change anything at the current, with Ek posting already, I'll give you,Oz, 1/3rd the speed of sound to keep you within the ranges for this tournament.

@0Z, while your defense was valid(bouncing out of the way), you did not mention that the attack was two fold - only mentioning the top rock, and not the fact you landed in a hole that was made. Since this is the new person tournament, I'll allow a reprieve and for you to edit in, at least, some mention of the hole, even if the result will be the same. Next time, Ribdheart would be able to force a hit due to neglecting to mention his attacks.

I really don't meant to be nitpicky or seem like I'm being excessively worried about this however I do have a complaint with how the edited post transpired as well. I tried to make it rather clear the two moves were in conjunction, getting hit with one would almost surely involve getting hit with the other. Since the rock would come from above to impact at the same time the hole opened, landing in the hole would result in the mouse getting hit by the rock from above.

The mouse post does say that he bounces away as the ground sinks below him, but the ground didn't sink. It opened, as in the ground simply moved away from a center point to create a hole, meaning that he would have to fall fully within the hole. Therefore it is my opinion that the mouse falling into the hole, as the post states he did, would result in him getting hit with the rock.

Your thoughts?

Pumpkin is moving at an approximate 100 meters per second. Unless Rindheart can earthbend at similar or faster speeds, the rock he's smashing with simply won't be able to make it there in time.

There's also to consider that Pumpkin is going at such breakneck speeds that he may as well land before Rindheart can even properly formulate and start excuting his plan. Though, that may not be true, as Pumpkin seems to be using the fie exhaust to slow himself down, which will still alter his trajectory and complicate calculations nevertheless.

On that note, landing 16 meters away after just missing a jump kick at 1/3 sound speed seems dubious to me as well. Depends on how much Pumpkin can slow himself down midair.

But yeah, those are just my thoughts; not an official judge ruling.

Thanks for the imput. Reasoning for support in spite of that speed is that I did specifically mention Rindheart is rather mentally nimble. Though of course, now that you bring it up, given those speeds it's not unreasonable to say the mouse would land outside of Rindheart's zone of control, only 10 meters, though I've by no means run the numbers.

Alright, I am content with that, sorry for that trouble.
