[OOC] ImportantNobody vs. LeeRoy NoW Rnd 1

[ImportantNobody]

Got it. Time to work on my post. It will be too late to do another after that.

Interesting stuff.

Oh, for future reference in other fights, if your going to use 50. cal sniper as your base for potential pounds of energy. You should probably think about 'Which' sniper rifle your' talking about, they tend vary widely even if they use the same caliber.

[ImportantNobody]

Given how she's shooting at him while he's still spinning to face her, I don't believe he'd have time to complete his swing, land, and dodge before the diamond would travel such a short distance at him.

[LeeRoy]

@ImportantNobody She's shooting at him as he's spinning, but also dodging after he's landed. The second action happening before the first action, chronologically, but happening in the reverse order in your post.

So there's a bit of chronological discrepancy.

[ImportantNobody]

She's not waiting until after he lands to start her dodge. As he begins his spin she begins to lean back to dodge the blow to come while shooting at him while he's spinning. Chronilogicaly, her dodge would be happening during and after her shooting at him.

[LeeRoy]

Man I hate this kind of thing, where posts happen during other posts and you have to untangle what the fuck's going on.

Here's the events as I see them:
Ruchette charges her shot.
Shin leaps forwards.
Begins spinning.
Starts his swing.
Releases the weight and lands.
Ruchette dodges.
Ruchette fires off her shot.

How you're describing it is:
Ruchette charges her shot.
Shin leaps forwards.
Begins spinning.
Starts his swing.
Ruchette fires off her shot.
Releases the weight and lands.
Ruchette dodges.

I'll reread my post to see if my post could be interpreted your way.

EDIT: I personally don't think so, but we could get another opinion if you desire.

[LeeRoy]

Normally I'd press the argument, keep on about how she's attempting an instant killshot before he even completes his first movement and is fully capable of it on the first trade. But I'm really not in the mood for arguing tonight.

How fast is her shot going? That's all I care about right now.

[ImportantNobody]

I'll use the slowest rifle muzzle velocity (from google search) devided by 6 (imagining it being about that much larger than a bullet so I want it to be around the same force), so 65 feet per second.

We can't attack/kill each other on the first post but anything after, which is what we are at now, is fair game.

[LeeRoy]

@ImportantNobody I'm aware, but the first trade being an attempt at an instant kill is incredibly shite.

Especially with the factors affecting your accuracy being: Your head in motion, the target that you're firing at being in motion at an angle to yourself, as well as spinning, and having an object flying at exactly eye level past your face.

And you still being entirely focused on the target that's not even facing you entirely and still being able to pinpoint the shot.

But I'm really not in a mood to argue tonight, please don't press the argument. I'm editing my post now.

[ImportantNobody]

I don't see a problem with her missing the heart. If I remember right, most of the damage could have been the same, just the order of events slightly different.

[Skallagrim]

In you claim it is assault rifle in strenght in your post. So going off that it you may hit him some where, probably won't kill him. Chances are you are in his kill zone.

[LeeRoy]

Aight, my post will be up in like, 10-20.

[LeeRoy]

@ImportantNobody
I have posted.

[ImportantNobody]

No complaints for this one. Nice.

I think I'll only have time for one post tonight unless I rush a second one, but odds are very, very good that we'll meet the deadline (no pun intended).

[LeeRoy]

@ImportantNobody I can actually get out a post real quick here, if you'd be willing to stay up for at least another half hour.

[ImportantNobody]

I'll see if I'm still coherent enough.

Very minor thing (actually nearly completely irrelevant), but if she's swinging at his left leg and he raises his right over the height of the blade, it seems like you were saying he was dodging the swing by lifting the leg up but it was the wrong one to dodge with in that case. She'd still be kicked away before her swing could reach the intended target, which is why this doesn't matter.
