• 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?

    My bad. Carry on, then.

    Negrek vs. Mawile

    Okay, so it turns out that I missed, for this ENTIRE DANGED BATTLE, that Phlogiston actually has an experience point, so all of her attacks should have been doing +1% damage. That was totally my bad, and there's no reason you should have to go back and update the previous rounds to account for...

    Divide the amount of damage that would have been done for the whole round by three, then round down (minimum one). That gives you the per-action damage. Then multiply by the number of actions it was in effect. Basically toxic's going to be doing either 1% or 2% on a per-action basis.

    Yeah, writing in the present tense gets some getting used to, but it'll come naturally after a while. You can write your reffings in past tense if you'd prefer, though. Eh, I guess it's not specified, but usually I treat all status effects per action rather than per round. Otherwise you could...

    Negrek vs. Mawile

    Be careful about switching tenses in your prose. For example, the first sentence of your first paragraph is in present tense. Then you slip into past tense for the next four sentences before switching back to present at the end of the paragraph. You do a fine job of describing the actions that...

    Minor nitpick, but the fire spin should keep going for as long as it normally would, even after Windows 99 leaves; it's not totally clear from your description, but it sounds like the attack stops after the first action. Other than that, looks good! And thank you for including your effect rolls...

    All right, Phlogiston. Let's begin with the biggest substitute you can make, then follow it up with a flamethrower and a toxic. On the off-chance that you end up frozen (look who's tempting fate), use flame wheel to get out of it. Substitute (25%) / Flame Wheel ~ Flamethrower / Flame Wheel ~...

    Looks good! You can command whenever, Mawile.

    Oh no, you're fine. Just wait for the edits and you can re-command.

    Negrek vs. Mawile

    @Mawile: Generally speaking you should wait for the ref tester's response before posting commands in a test battle, since they might request edits to the previous reffing, and those edits might affect the orders you want to give. Like in this case, I'd imagine. @VM: Your battle description is...

    I'll use Phlogiston, then. Start with a power-up punch, then assist to get a little help from your friends. Finish off by trapping Windows 99 with a fire spin! If there are clones on the field, switch to a widespread heat wave. Power-Up Punch / Heat Wave ~ Assist / Heat Wave ~ Fire Spin /...
