I got curious to what the hell the Trial Board was. Then I saw you needed cheering up.

The Trial Zone is a failure at its finest. Does nothing but generate flame wars when it should have been just doing a fair and just trial to those who would have been banned on the spot. Something that happened on Tropes and was one of the core reasons why we jumped ship.

Ah.
Was thinking of joining again as the real me, not the stylised version I was last seen as.

By the way, I was wrong to call you all assholes. I'm the asshole. Always have, always will. It explains why people I deem assholes have friends and I don't. Any actual assholenish directed at me is literally a taste of my own medicine.
Though at least I'm not as bad as my brother. Who has been making Holocaust jokes all this week. Because I went to a lecture by a Holocaust survivor on Tuesday.

Well, I personally welcome you back. I doubt some of the others will, but I think you can understand why.

...Didn't you get IP banned? It's been months, so I guess it cycled....
Whatever, just don't do it again.

Uh, no, the IP ban was lifted quite quickly. Like, a few days.
Would the powers of Steve? be acceptable? I feel like magic this time.

...Or in helpful terms, the Minecraft player character...really not sure what his powers would actually be.

Super Strength, mainly, what with his being able to smash through stone with his bare hands. The crafting of items, with a limited Bag of Holding. And the creation of enchantments and brewing of potions. Also, gains XP through killing things, mining most ores, smelting ores you don't XP from mining, fishing and breeding animals. The XP is used in the creation of enchantments and repairing and naming of tools.
And I will be going with the latest Snapshot always.

Might be able to break stone but he can't do so at any sort of reasonable speed. And it's not even that MUCH stone. Bad logic for super strength. Also, most of those abilities are utterly useless given that almost every setting ever does not have such fortuitous abundances of raw materials underfoot, let alone the physics to enable getting access to anything required to enchant anything. Animals also don't breed that quickly in every other setting (... and do you really get XP for breeding animals? I'm sure you don't).
Then there's the issue with using the snapshots rather than stable releases. :/

Breaking a metre cubed of stone in 7.5 seconds barehanded counts as superstrength in my book. And he can break brick and ores, it's just he smashes it to dust instead of getting anything useful.
In regards to breeding, we can add "All pairing caused by him have seconds long reproductive cycles" as a power. And enchantments tables only cost four square meters of obsidian, two diamonds the size of a baby's head and an unwritten book.

Cubic metres, not square metres. We're talking volumes, here, not areas. Now, consider that minecraft obsidian is made by pouring water onto a 'source' of lava. It has nothing, in fact, in common with real world obsidian other than colour (that's cooling on exposure to air, is highly brittle, and is GLASS). So unless every world suddenly runs on minecraft physics, it's impossible.
Also, most of the minerals in a planet are useless to a minecraft player. Bauxite, absolutely anything with titanium in it, the silicates that make up most of the planet's crust...

Yeah, you have points. Quite a few. But I will persevere in the face of these.
Also, there is a lot of Fridge Logic in regards to breeding. Breeding is induced through feeding the subjects their favorite foods, pregnancy lasts several seconds, the child is born with an adult-sized head and childhood lasts a day. And it doesn't matter what gender the two parents are.
Easy way to make new characters, I suppose.

More stuff: the paucity of giant diamonds in pretty much every world ever, the fact physics applies to mines in other worlds, and the fact that the only ability you really get in the end is hammerspace and the ability to carry slightly more stuff. Everything else that can be produced through minecraft is either a trap of some description requiring massive preparation, or low-tier magical armament.
Better to think of something else.

Nah. Anything he places will just defy physics. Sign-up is up.

I'm pretty sure we're not in the business of bending the laws of physics to suit one character.

No. You just have super strength and a leather TARDIS. That's pretty much it.

Nope.
Disney now owns Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Roger Rabbit (...YES.), Marvel, ABC, ESPN, and Fox.
They also used to own Power Rangers. I now wish that they still did, a Power Ranger/Avengers movie would be awesome.
