I do believe that Hydrofluoric Acid is weak.

Quote from Beefy
name me three.

and according to you, if i held a match up to a leaf blower the flame would grow bigger? my ass.

Rofl, ok NATIONS was a bit of an exaggeration =P

I think CITIES would be more accurate. Like half the state of California >.>

And yes, depending on how big the fire is, and what is near it, yes the fire would probably spread.

If you had a bunch of bushes on fire, and you ran out with a leaf blower, it would probably spread to another bush. Usually this doesn't happen with a leaf blower, but with greater amounts of natural wind.

Quote from Ashley August
The terms for game genres are confusing because games fit many genres now, but...

an RPG usually gives you control of multiple characters. These may be controlled as a group (like in Final Fantasy 12: Revanant Wings), one at a time, or at different times in the game. You usually control the main character(s) for the entire game, like in Star Ocean: Till the End of Time. There is also usually a level and experience system, and a journey to save the world/country/etc., though it differs. You usually can collect different weapons, characters, armor, and whatnot, and the characters usually have special abilities/techniques that are always available or available at different times.

How does this have anything to do with the debate?

Which one is more powerful? Rock, paper or scissors?

None of the three have any inherited kinetic energy(other than the movement of the earth) so the power would depend on the size of one of the three objects relative to the other.

I have to admit. That was some smart, slick response. Although the swinging motion of the hand that is choosing rock, paper, or scissors would be kinetic energy.

Since when is kinetic energy synonymous with power? And why, if we exclude it as a measure of power, is size the next best option?

Because I said so.

I'm just wondering. Suppose we have a pea-sized pebble and a really large boulder. The pebble has a higher hardness rating.
If the boulder wasn't moving and the pebble was smashed into it, with enough speed and force, would the pebble be able to shatter the boulder?

if the pebble were hard enough and moving at a fast enough speed when it made contact it would be more likely to piece through the rock, similar to a bullet shooting through a less dense material like wood or flesh. however it is theoretically possible for the large rock to shatter just highly improbable.
