Both words have the same general entomology...
I'm sorry, but I simply cannot continue this debate anymore. I'm laughing too hard. :P

Sometimes, I wonder if you type malapropisms into your posts on purpose.

Did anyone here notice the new Ye Gods tick that went up?

The point of keeping the golems on fire isn't for the value of fire as a weapon. It's more to keep the golems functioning at a reasonable speed.
It was never a promise. It was a dirty lie, and you all knew that. You should all know by now that you can't trust a word I say.

Si.

In a cheeky rather than nasty way, though. I just thought it was funny ;)

I'm just bored, to be honest. Nothing to do until the new game comes out.

Kamehameha is possible using pyromancy.

Also, why is it called plasmancy? Couldn't plasma manipulation be its own thing so we can get some DBZ all up in here?

*Slaps Andres* Are you starting your expy parade already?
It's not about expies! It's about what's scientifically and/or magically possible! DBZ can be easily simulated and with practical results. It's not my fault that KJP made a magic system that 100% allows for DBZ actions. Blame him.

Arguing with GM? Never ever works. I'd rather blame you, "God of bad decisions"

Magic systems: I don't mind the names being changed around at all IC or OOC (provided it's not for misleading people on OOC). To be fair, the fact that it got progressively harder and harder to make up names to fill up the cube should have been a big warning signal that the system would be unwieldy and difficult to implement. At this point, I think there are the following main options:
  • Use the SRD, which while not perfect, is widely known, and more importantly, tested (abjuration, conjuration, divination, &c. for arcane magic and sphere-based clerical spells for divine magic)
  • Have players bounce around ideas for systems and put it to a vote
  • Stick with the oversized system, probably incorporating the naming changes (Note: player-created magic can very well replace or add to entire paths in it during gameplay, but it looks less expandable without the big picture)
  • Design a tiny, minimalistic system organized solely by how much the effects of magic deviate from physics ior plot

Iunno, maybe leave the examples, but don't implement any just yet save for metamagic.
