The two trying to beat people with their own limbs.  Fer realz dawg I said we aren't going brutal with this.
Kinda hard to define the line between "stylish" and "brutal" when dealing with killing people since "stylish" often dips into the "brutal" territories. Just so you know.

Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

It's hard to not beat people up with their own body parts and/or torture them?

It's not that hard, fer realz people, you are using such conventional methods in what is supposed to be a silly game it sickens me.  Go train a killer rabit or gerbil or something.  Replace somebodies blood with jello at a blood collection booth.  Really, try to exercise some creativity here.

Ok so how about I pump a crowd full of Acid then kill them with a plastic bat while they think I look like a catepillar, and at the same time read a book would that work?

You STILL didn't respond to my post. I was saying it's hard to define what is brutal when you're talking about "stylish". Especially when our opinions differentiate. It'd be better to just say blatantly what isn't and what is allowed.

Rule #4:  This is about stylish killings, not brutal killings.  All actions that are equivalent to some form of the following "String NPC A up with NPC B's intestines." will be ignored and you will lose the action for that turn

He did answer it, Tarran. ^^; If in doubt, try to go for something funny instead of something detailed/gory. If you're going to decapitate a guy, for example, just punt the head like a field goal. Or throw it into a wastebasket for a three-pointer or something. Play like Freddy Kreuger; kill people in stupid ways and then come up with a witty or terrible one liner, like "don't dream and drive!"

His example effectively says "You can't kill NPC A with NPC B's leg".

It doesn't say "You can't beat up NPC A with NPC A's leg" like he mentioned to me earlier.

Or "Cut NPC A's limbs off one by one while forcing him to listen to rick-roll", which is pretty brutal.

See, it's being vague. This is what I'm saying. He hasn't defined anything being brutal besides, say, "You can't beat up X with X or Y's body parts".

Think real careful here, do you really want to go down the path of me going through everything that you can't do?  Because if you really want to go down that path, we can make it happen bro, we can make it happen.

I personally don't give a crap. I'm just saying you aren't defining things well enough with just one example.

Also, calm down.

Let me put it to you this way: If you can't kill NPC A with NPC B's leg, why would you even bother trying?

His example effectively says "You can't kill NPC A with NPC B's leg".

It doesn't say "You can't beat up NPC A with NPC A's leg" like he mentioned to me earlier.

Or "Cut NPC A's limbs off one by one while forcing him to listen to rick-roll", which is pretty brutal.

See, it's being vague. This is what I'm saying. He hasn't defined anything being brutal besides, say, "You can't beat up X with X or Y's body parts".

Also, you basically answered your own question. You noted these things were too brutal to do. Use your sense, dude. :-\

What are you arguing about? I'm not arguing against this. Read my post again.

Also, you basically answered your own question. You noted these things were too brutal to do. Use your sense, dude. :-\
I noted it's brutal. But does that mean, say, someone else will?

People are different. If you don't define things well in rules they will eventually break rules.

I'm pointing out that this bit:

Quote
His example effectively says "You can't kill NPC A with NPC B's leg".

It doesn't say "You can't beat up NPC A with NPC A's leg" like he mentioned to me earlier.

is a bad example to use. It doesn't have a point. As for the rest, if you think it's brutal, chances are good that it actually is. I mean, I could play Garrett to be a complete psychopath if I wanted, but I don't out of respect for the silly nature of the game. I'm not going around tying people up, breaking every bone in their body with the bat, and then throwing them in the log ride to drown because that's brutal. Like I said earlier, stylish doesn't necessarily have to be the most extreme method of killing someone. What's more stylish, rigging up an extremely elaborate trap to drop a chandelier on someone's head to kill them, or just splattering their brains all over the floor with a bat? It's really more about the method than the result.

It means that he's saying you can't beat up A with B in the first post. NOT you can't beat A with A. It has a point.

As for the rest, if you think it's brutal, chances are good that it actually is.
IF I. People AREN'T COPIES. What you may find intolerable DOES NOT HAVE A 100% CHANCE OF BEING INTOLERABLE TO OTHERS.

Jesus, read please read my text. You're starting to frustrate me. :-\
