Introduction
The main purpose of the wiki falls under indexing characters, though as a side activity for fun, we allow one to do versus threads for the character profiles they made or others have made. This is primarily for ways to discuss interesting topics. However, due to the normally toxic nature of these topics from certain communities, there are guidelines that we need to stress and must be followed. The following will give the guidelines along with potential ideas one can do for a versus thread.
Possible Types of Versus Matches
Versus Matches are normally considered to be a "who will win in a fight?" however, this isn't every versus match.
Here are some examples:
- Out of verse Character vs Character: The most popular form of a versus match, where two characters from different versus fight to see which is stronger.
- In-verse Character vs Character Matches: A secondary popular form of versus matches, where two characters from within the verse battle, note that the ones allowed are under specific stipulations to make them interesting or if they haven't already happened in verse.
- Investigation Matches: These are matches to deal with fictional characters popular for being detectives getting into battle with each other. Unlike the last two threads where they are fighting to see who wins, they are instead solving an investigation and seeing who can do it first or finding out something about the person. A very popular example regarding this is a detective trying to find out Kira (Light Yagami)'s identity.
- Race Matches: These are matches where a characters speed matters the most, this mainly goes under people who fall under the speedsters category, though characters with vehicles, ships, and animals can also used in these matches.
- Object vs Verse Matches: This will likely be the rarest. This is normally that one sets up an object against notable characters in a verse and decide on if they'd go through the mechanics the object does or not. As an example, The Switch from OFF erases everything once it's turned OFF, for a thread example one could ask "Would these notable characters survive the Switch".
- Gauntlets: These are matches that are a continuous challenge, fighting a specific number of contestants, such as someone fighting an entire family.
Regarding Verdicts
Versus threads have no true verdicts as they are fun and game threads, the point of them is just to discuss scenarios and who is the most likely to win with no one true side "winning" with their character.
Rules
General Rules
- Toxicity in threads are not allowed, while debates getting slightly heated is not surprising with the topics it is expected that both sides are mature in the debate and throw no insults to the other side.
- Any form of mental breakdowns, temper tantrums, tangents, rants, in versus threads over a character losing will not be tolerated. These are fictional characters and we expect all people to come into the thread acknowledging that.
- Don't bait people into making heated responses.
- If it's obvious neither side is going to come to convince the other, it's best to reach an agree to disagree, do not harass the other side for not agreeing with you, no matter how wrong you think they are, the conversation at the end of the day is merely talking about a hypothetical scenarios of what fictional characters would do.
Battle Rules
- Make sure to thoroughly examine the fundamental data and powers of each profiles before making a versus thread. This prevents threads from turning into needlessly lengthy and saves users the hassle of getting to absolutely give an explanation for each individual's powers and talents for every and each thread.
- If no other specifications are stated for the match, standard battle assumptions will be considered.
- Even if a character has the potential to reach a certain tier, the use of any tier between that tier and the one it scales to is not allowed. For example, characters with Varies from 5-B to 2-C cannot be put at 4-B as that is not listed on the profile.
- Characters who have shown resistance to time-stopping abilities are assumed to be resistant to time-slowing abilities by default, asides from specific situations where this is treated differently.
- One is allowed to have characters fight above or below their tier as it's a fun and game thread at the end of the day.
