• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    "If a ninjask holds a choice scarf, is raised to +6 speed, and gains the ability chlorophyll, how much energy would it use to create a maximum number of clones from double team under the effects of both sunny day and tailwind?"

    A new ref test is available in the first post. Thanks to pathos for question 15, and to sreservoir for submitting a question, although it was too complex to be used. Below is the previous test, with answers. Seven people attempted this one, and three eventually passed. 1. If a player receives...

    I'm thinking it's about time to roll over the ref test. Therefore, I'm soliciting questions. If you want to contribute a question or two, just PM it to me; you need not provide an answer. If you're planning to take the test, you might get a little bit of an edge, since it may include one or two...

    Okay, the new guidelines for becoming a referee have been added to the first post, as well as the first ref quiz.

    Hmm, not something that was cleared with me before it was posted, then. If the pokémon is being treated as a full opponent in every way, you can take the money for it, but this should not be happening in battles anyway.

    You only count the pokémon controlled by trainers, for the purposes of both money and EXP.

    E-reffings should be out within one week of you saying you'll take the battle. Obviously it would make no sense to count from when commands were posted.

    Hiikaru ♥ Your battle description is nice and flavorful, but you spend little time talking about the attacks themselves. I was momentarily confused as to whether the thunderbolt actually hit, since while it was launched, there was no description of it finding its mark. This was more the case...

    Ah, that's the problem. PP is being used as a proxy for power; it's pretty rough, though, as you can see from weirdness like and flamethrower and thunderbolt having more PP than ice beam, despite them being typeswaps of one another. Logically, there's no real reason for them to cost different...

    Ah, I didn't think of treating inorganic rock as though it was weak to fighting. Super-effective damage is 1.5x in ASB, not 2x. 60 non-STAB unboosted attack really is quite wimpy, but a little better. My apologies, I misread the first dragon rage instance, and you did mention the special attack...

    Does it? Whoops. Still the wrong boost, but at least it's closer, then.

    Psychtini Your battle description is all right; it's a bit sparse and weirdly top-heavy--significantly less went on in the last two actions than the first, but not to the point where there should be more text in the first paragraph than in the other two combined. It looks like you lost interest...

    Re: ASB Referee Headquarters Yeah, it used to be stickied, but I took it down a while ago since I've started working on a new scale. I should probably put it back up since that's taking longer than expected.

    Re: ASB Referee Headquarters 1. I agree, it doesn't make sense to have things like doubled hex damage and so on cost more energy than their base versions. Some referees do, but I don't. I also don't alter energy cost for attacks affected by stat boosts. 2. A 1x weakness is a 1.5x multiplier; a...

    Re: ASB Referee Headquarters This ended up being in alphabetical order rather than posting order. Eh. While unfortunately nobody passed this round, all the mocks were good and I think that the people who tried out have a good chance of passing if they reapply. Alvyren Your description is...
