((No. No, it wouldn't.))

GWG, no insults please, KJs last point was absolutely valid and made it in. Which is more than you can say about constantly tooting gurps horn

I was explicitly not insulting him. And if GURPS is invalid, why don't you ever counter any of my points, or acknowledge them? I'm trying to bring up a way to make this easier for us, supporting it with explanations of what it could let us do, how it could work, and what I'm willing to do if we choose that route...and you're acting as if it's the dumbest thing to ever come out of your computer screen. Why? Why is everything GURPS-related so horrible that you can't ever comment on it?
Seriously. I've brought up issues, brought up ideas, and you've brushed them aside without any comments to indicate that you actually considered them. I'm not just chanting "GURPS GURPS GURPS" like you're implying--I'm providing specific examples of specific solutions, with the reasoning explained. Yet you never respond to them, perhaps so you can pretend they don't exist, allowing you to safely mock me for ever bringing up such an idea. What the hell, Akroma? Why are you so arrogant that you think your solution is so perfect for this game that you won't even consider another one, no matter what people say?
Remember how earlier you were complaining about kj just saying the old system was good without really considering the benefits of the change? Hello Mrs. Pot.

((...And you're only telling me this now?))

"Bah, expand its influence? The mere suggestion. Ostrioth is it. It will be the end point for the energies of life. As for you, Quinghai, you are correct. Life ends. I make it so. Death is my domain, I would not expect an elemantal to understand its workings."

"Life ends. This does not make it just to force it to end before its time, any more than it would be just to bring about the end of the universe just because it is inevitably going to happen some era."

"That's not a very healthy attitude, Mr. Quinghai. You're placing yourself in a position where you believe you can do no wrong and that anybody who opposes you is a fool. It's a very easy trap to fall into. Especially so since you've only existed in this instance and never before. We all go a little mad with power on our first run through, I know. But please, try to get with the program and start creating rather than squabbling, Mr. Quinghai. You're only wasting everyone's time if you don't, as Mr. Mort has already confirmed he has no real plans for expanding his domain," Ken says with a hint of tiredness to his voice, then gets back to work. "Terribly sorry for holding you up, Mr. Vanhurk. Let's get those ice substrates working."

"I do not call all who oppose me fools, I merely call all who are foolish fools. And I have no problem if Mort drains the life from beings on his own wretched world, which is why--rather than destroy it, as you seem convinced I am doing--I am merely insulating its blight from the rest of the universe. He may blight his own, but I will not stand for anyone else to be affected."

((I promise that this state of mind is just temporary.))

Also, I totally would have voluntered if I didn't think the health stat was a bad idea. Mana stat to.

Why are they bad ideas? Because they're different than what we had, or what?

Why not just have it straight Resit plus Defense? Same with mana. Just make it straight Magic plus mind. Then you don't need to raise the statcap to make things work as well.

Why is that a bad thing?

((KJ, try and actually give some numbers and examples when you suggest things, because frankly, I am not sure what you mean))

He means that we could calculate HP and MP from other stats instead of having stats for those stats.

((I know. Since you seemed to think that people were searching the basement, I was under the impression that you didn't realize that the first floor was the second floor up.
You know, I think that's the only quirk in differences between dialects that I've heard any speaker say that his dialect's version made less sense.))

I like the idea of Alucard having an anti-magic pistol and an anti-void pistol that can be combined to form a completely normal pistol

I've seen less silly weapons on RWBY. Even if the antimagic and antivoid combined into some kind of explody shot.
