That paladin sounds like he has killed a few metal slimes in his day to get some experience points.

What are the Memphis fans gonna think of this thread!?!?

If I ever feel like a nerd, I will come back to this thread and realize that other than Yoda, I have no idea what the hell yall are talking about.

That's exactly what I was just discussing with Stebo.

Speaking of Stebo...I heard he's a ten foot tall beastman who showers in vodka and feeds his baby shrimp scampi....and he once inhaled a seagull!

I couldn't leave this one alone

For the title Match - Yoda in the first round hands down the easiest call.

(Neo vs. Lt. Cmdr. Data) Data in the second round. Neo is a punk!!

(Capt. Picard 1992 vs. Capt. Kirk 1969) This is tougher, but I take this as During the prime of both of their series, Kirk in the third and to the death, Kirk fought hand to hand in over half the shows.

(Spiderman vs. Wolverine) Good battle!!! I take Spiderman by decision after the 12th, He has spidy sense.

(Buttercup vs. the red Power Ranger) No real clue I know they are both cartoons, I think red Power Ranger should win in the 2nd just based on Names alone.

(11th-level Paladin with a +3 Sword of Sharpness vs a Griffon, 3 Orcs, and a Gelatinous Cube.) I don't remember Hit points and damage of an average 11th-level Paladin, and no idea what the Jell-o can do. I think if the Paladin is by himself he's totally screwed!!

What's sad is, I can follow about 99% of this thread... But I'm going to hold off from giving my predictions on those particular matches

MootPoint · December 4, 2003

I think the paladin gets shredded in the first Maybe

Does all this have something to do with the talon's initiation?

No -- actually, we are just imitating the typical halftime talk at a UT-Dallas chessmatch. (If you don't have a football team, do you still have cheerleaders for chess?)

It amazes me that this thread never dies, yet burger, BBQ, pizza or beer talk gets shut down.

I think Saturday Night Live answered that question

UNTFan23 · December 5, 2003

See, I gotta know if the 11th season Paladin has any buffs before I make the call. A SoW can make all the difference if you gotta bail.

Armor (especially magical) can have good effects as well.

Man, I haven't played evercrack in ages ... must ... get ... broadband ... connection ... and better ... computer ...

What the hell is a Paladin? Can we get back to something I know....like lightsabers....and Bill Brasky jokes?

Did I ever tell you about the time that Bill Braksy taught his son how to drive? He did it by entering him in the Indy 500. The kid wrecked and died. Brasky said it would've happened sometime.
