I have herpes?

 

[Zjiin]

I have herpes.

Don't you feel better now?

 

[Eci4]

Zjiin is the Dr. Phil of the smash world?

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

yes but who is the oprah?

 

[Asian_Flava]

Whats up fellas...... I poop'd

 

[QUIVO]

Wait, couldn't Gambit just blow up Juggernaut? I mean, he can blow things up by just meditating. He should become a bad guy and make people explode if they don't abide to his rules.

Meditating!?

You make my brain sad.

i thought his power was kinda like rouges, anything he touched blew up.

 

[Eci4]

I think it's just non living stuff it works for... surely, the cosmic material was protected from it too

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

lol cosmic material. i remember in one of the original cartoon episodes someone spat some mucus stuff to stick gambit to the wall, and he had to use his power on it to get out. mucus is living right?

 

[Eci4]

no? Mucus is made from organic cells, but I don't think it is alive? Man, I'm not an X-Men pro, I don't know these things. Ask Zjiin, I hear he's won tournaments.

 

[Sliq]

I am amazing.

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

sliq... that is genius.

 

[Overswarm]

that's my puppy if he were racist and surly

"Known superhuman powers: Gambit has the mutant ability to tap into the potential energy contained within an object and transform it into kinetic energy. When Gambit thus charges an object with kinetic energy and throws it at a target, the object releases this energy explosively on impact."

i got this info from jiano's post in the xmen discussion thread, for you guys wondering about gambits power.

I dont have to be a an x-men pro to know that:

Mucus: a slippery secretion of the lining of various membranes in the body (mucous membranes). It is a viscous colloid containing antiseptic enzymes (such as lysozyme) and immunoglobulins. Mucus is produced by goblet cells in the mucous membranes that cover the surfaces of the membranes. It is made up of mucins (a family of large, heavily glycosylated proteins) and inorganic salts suspended in water.

"Known superhuman powers: Gambit has the mutant ability to tap into the potential energy contained within an object and transform it into kinetic energy. When Gambit thus charges an object with kinetic energy and throws it at a target, the object releases this energy explosively on impact."

You beat me to it.

Since Juggernaut's potential energy is technically limitless when he is in motion (making him a perpetual motion machine which also breaks the first and second laws of thermodynamics), couldn't Gambit destroy the entire world if he touched Juggernaut when the Juggernaut was out for a jog?

He doesn't jog! He's the Juggernaut, *****!

 

[Brightside6382]

Couldn't Gambit just destroy the entire planets with a single touch since everything has kinetic energy o.O???

 

[Fall]

Gambit sucks, Cyclops anyone?

 

[DrewB008]

no overswarm, because thats actually a pretty incorrect description of his power now that i read it. anyone transforms an objects potential energy into kinetic energy by throwing/dropping it, im thinking gambit must add energy in the form of heat/pressure or something within the object to make it explode, and adds the energy himself, because:

Sun Jiano (5:58:50 PM): he only has so much energy
Sun Jiano (5:58:53 PM): to use
Sun Jiano (5:59:03 PM): when he blows up say, a bus, it takes a lot out of him

and this man knows gambit

 

[QUIVO]

Wolverine = Gambit > Magneto > Nightcrawler >>>>>>>>>>>>> everyone else >> Cyclops

Cyclops is a panzy and is too much of a goody good (based off the old school cartoon)

 

[DrewB008]

cyclops blows, the guy cant even live a normal life by controlling his powers

[Fortress | Sveet]

isnt potential energy equivalent to its height? therefor the earth would have no potential energy to change into kinetic. maybe im thinking of something else.

 

[DrewB008]

potential energy can be a lot of things, the earth would have some due to the suns gravity

 

[Sliq]

potential energy can be a lot of things, the earth would have some due to the suns gravity

My potential energy is very minute. My balls, however, are enormous.

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

potential energy can be a lot of things, the earth would have some due to the suns gravity

well it would suck if he converted its potential energy into kinetic and blew us up.

 

[Zjiin]

I thought Gambit's power was that he was Cajun. And i don't know why he doesn't make really spicey gumbo to attack with.

 

[mathos]

Cyclops > Iceman

But thats really not saying much because they both have homosexual relations.

More likely that he introduces an initial amount of energy to act as a catalyst, initiaiting the reaction required to transform mass into kinetic energy. That would literaly make him a walking nuclear reactor.

potential energy equivalent to its height

You are thinking of potential gravitational energy. The only way to utilize Earth to Sun potential energy would be to eliminate its radial acceleration completely, causing it to plummet into the Sun.
The potential energy the writers were likely thinking about is that in its mass -it's where E= mc^2 comes from - or strong force or something, I don't know.

 

[QUIVO]

wait... so
a^2 + b^2 = c^2?

 

[Eci4]

I'm from the midwest, therefore I have some johns? It's too rainy in Minnesota... how is the weather in the rest of the midwest? I imagine rainy seeing how close together we all are?

 

[QUIVO]

In cincinnati ohio, it was just cloudy for the whole day until sunset. We got some pink skies.

 

[SCOTU]

sorry for being on topic... But how does one find an adequate venue to host a large (50-100 person) tournament?

 

[Eci4]

By living on east or west coast lol

 

[DrewB008]

look for big buildings around your town, then call them. or some friend with a really big house

 

[Zig-Zag!]

Build a venue
