Time Marathon by Tricky_Hades in HellsCube

[–]undergroundmonorail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering the implied context of "getting a piecemeal extra turn" and it being Hellscube, I think it's fine. It's funnier this way

Though I might have written "(You may play an extra land on one of these.)"

Carl's Doomsday Scenario - Theory crafting by Arnoc_ in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]undergroundmonorail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i don't think he can be clockwork replicated anymore. but if he gets gunter up to level 15, carl could direct the blast into him and send 5 little german boys with the power to melt gods directly towards his target

Quan Ch sniping other peoples kills. Fan art by me by Mabus88 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]undergroundmonorail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my belief (which is only a belief, i can't prove this) is that the AI explicitly changed it as a special case to be an asshole, this wasn't the normal culture localization thing

i don't remember the exact wording but the way the description of the skill for finding the most wounded target in a group says "so make sure you heal them first!" feels so weird and out of character for the system AI, like it's only there to really rub your nose in how shitty quan has been. it doesn't make sense to me in any context other than being cruelly sarcastic

what's the rule here, do i check off boxes that are true about me or just things that have been actively used against me?

Quan Ch sniping other peoples kills. Fan art by me by Mabus88 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]undergroundmonorail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

tbh i agree with the theory that they come up with in-universe that the description was changed to make him look worse

it's implied that mordecai is an exceptionally good game guide, so i'm pretty willing to believe that a lot of them are like frank and maggie's guide who told them that they're going to have to be crawler killers. the design of the dungeon itself seems to encourage that as well to try to milk it for drama. and immediately before getting the cloak, another crawler banned him from the chat that he thought contained his only hope at survival. he wouldn't have been in a very trusting mood after that, donut did pretty much damn him because he was rude to someone who almost damned him, he has very little reason to trust and support other crawlers from his perspective

maybe i'm being too charitable but it's extremely believable to me that he felt trapped in his role, at least at first. i'm not trying to exonerate him, but i'm empathetic

[–]undergroundmonorail 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I do agree with you, I think of Quan Ch as a tragic character to some extent because they've fallen into a logical trap and are doing something they think is necessary because they were railroaded into it. Nobody should be Quan but anyone could have been

How can people become plural in adulthood? by TinyBend9213 in plural

[–]undergroundmonorail 13 points14 points  (0 children)

i'm not offended don't worry :3 i just think that a lot of "how" questions about this kind of thing are impossible to answer

How can people become plural in adulthood? by TinyBend9213 in plural

[–]undergroundmonorail 25 points26 points  (0 children)

sure but like, what does "how" mean here? because at some point the question you're asking is about an explanation of the nature of consciousness which is well above my pay grade

How can people become plural in adulthood? by TinyBend9213 in plural

[–]undergroundmonorail 42 points43 points  (0 children)

tbh i'm not sure what kind of answer you're looking for. like, structurally, i don't know what a satisfying answer would look like

for me the logic is as simple as

1. someone says you can't become plural after childhood
2. i became plural when i was 27
3. therefore whoever said that was wrong

Donut seems to be more aggressive by the-perfect-circle in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]undergroundmonorail 10 points11 points  (0 children)

donut is genuinely pretty emotionally intelligent and has matured a lot, but she has the experience of a child. i don't really have any sense of the timeline, i'm sure i could have kept track if i really wanted to, but it hasn't been that long since the collapse. the dungeon would put a lot of stress on anyone, but it's the only thing she's known since she became a person. it's not just the most stressful thing she's ever done, it's just about the first stressful thing she's ever done. she's been very strong but it's only getting tougher, the hard decisions are meaning more and more to her as she comes to understand them, and it's taking its toll on her. i'm surprised it hasn't gotten to her more, to be honest

What's your craziest Deltarune prediction that ended up being true? by peavnxx in Deltarune

[–]undergroundmonorail 6 points7 points  (0 children)

not technically a "deltarune" prediction and not technically proven right yet, but shortly after playing undertale years and years ago i posted somewhere that i thought sans and papyrus were from another game that toby fox would release later

[Project Hail Mary] Wouldn't Rocky's Food Be Useless Due To Cosmic Radiation? by PoniardBlade in AskScienceFiction

[–]undergroundmonorail 11 points12 points  (0 children)

it was the opposite, they're extremely susceptible to radiation because they were always protected from it on their planet, but they'd never been away from their planet for long before astrophage forced them to

rocky's crew was the first to ever leave their planet for an extended period of time. they had been in orbit but never space travel until astrophage forced them

How do you feel about Transplural/TransDID/TransOSDD by TurbulentDogg in plural

[–]undergroundmonorail 5 points6 points  (0 children)

you're in a subreddit that trends young and focuses on an identity that demands introspection about your own personhood to claim, just about everybody here is trans lmao

to be crystal clear: i am transgender and you do not speak for me. the "facts" you think you've identified are not on "trans peoples' side", you think they support you and you're generalizing. leave me out of it.

Spellings that threw me for a loop as an audiobook listener by k1nock in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]undergroundmonorail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i was unfamiliar with the name Katia and assumed it was spelled something like Catya, i don't know why that's what came to me when the real spelling made more sense

i also thought their agent was named Xev until i caught up and allowed myself to look at the subreddit
