Questions about proposed changes

[Jonathan Meer]

I would agree that writing is the 'main factor,' but I CL certainly can't be described merely as a 'tie-breaker.'

PL/CA has not operated in that capacity in the past. If someone is a slightly better writer than someone else, but has a much lower CA, then they lose. Typically. That's how it tends to go.

EDIT: @Sig: Why are you against this system of CL, which allows for the balancing of 'areas of expertise'? In your example of yourself and Vad, you mention that Vad is a bad-ass mofo, but that you have focused upon techs. Is it not conceivable that someone, due to sheer technical prowess, might outmatch someone else, who has raw power but not the technique to back it up?

@Josh: Fair enough on the Guldo.

But, Chubbs has historically diverged from DBZ on points considered necessary for the proper functioning of the RPG as a whole. To this end, for example, humans were set up to be just as capable of success and power as saiya-jin (despite this being completely contrary to the hierarchy presented in DBZ, after say the Raditz saga).

EDIT2: Hell, diminishing returns is another example. There's no real expression of diminishing returns anywhere in the chubbs universe; PLs skyrocket as sagas go past.
