Wow, there's a lot. Um... just put your team together and someone'll inevitably call you on it if any of your characters are too uber.

So that's:
12 definitely returning (wiegeabo, AS, prime, Corp., Harlekin, Leaguer, JB, LadyVader, Nightwing, Union Jack, X, Roughneck)
1 possibly returning (Tropico)
3 possibly not returning (XFanTim, Gilrean, Ahura)
2 definitely not returing (Guyverjay, JH)
4 ownerless
= 3 teams unaccounted for

Bah where have you been:o
I'm still here
Let me know if either would be interested in taking over my team. As you know, I'm not expecting to have time for season 3, but I've tried to keep a decent team together, including some top ubers like Paragon, Zoom, Firestorm (Fire elemental), and Dr. Strange (Man-Thing). Of course, they could make whatever changes they wanted after taking over, but I'm also happy to pass on any info about the charaters I've got.
Sounds good. :up:
Why do you of all people have to go? Hobbit, fah, I can deal with. But you? :(

I think JB deleted the other ownerless, and questionable teams.
I wish you'd bring them back JB. It was good to be reminded of what characters were out there by looking at ownerless teams. And, if we need to, it may help bring someone new in if they can start with an existing team and just modify it as needed.

Right. If Trop comes back, that's 1. Jason is 1 if he ever gets back in touch with JB. Leaving one spot open. Like Leaguer said, dark_knight_fan could take that one.
X's two friends could also take the open spot (or both open spots if Jason's gone).

Don't be disuaded man. If you focus on the fun aspects of it the rest will come in time. My suggestion is to pick up or build up a team that you feel comfortable with,.. feel free to pick up my old team if you want, I can help you with building a team from it that you feel comfirtable with. After that just take it a match at a time. When your opponants give you their 5 person line up look into those 5 guys only. Do your match,.. and then when you face the next person and find out who they're playing with,... study those 5 guys. It isn't so bad if you do it that way. And as always I and the other guys here are great at answering questions and helping you out.

Most of our knowledge (with the exception of a few like Guyver and X) come from participating in the DTL. I've probably learned more from two seasons worth of battles then I have from reading all my comics.

I actually planned the pic out as shown, then remembered Aquaman's hand and said I'd switch Aquaman and Proctor around, then forgot when I started drawing the actual pic. So, in my version of DC continuity, Aquaman lost his right hand, not his left. :p
Thanks, everybody. :) To everyone requesting pics, I will try my best to get them done, but I'm making no promises. Since JH is leaving, I'll draw his first, though. Again, not promising I'll actually get anything done. This drawing was just on a whim and I know I'm horribly unreliable, so I don't want anyone to be disappointed.

TheCorpulent1

None of them are allowed as far as I know. The Fallen One just came up and it was pointed out that he could take down a weakened Galactus. The Runner was ruled out officially, as was Thanos-the-walking-plot-device. I imagine the Destroyer would be too uber too, since he's come close to killing or actually has killed virtually everyone he's come up against other than the Celestials.

We really should compile a list of as many characters as possible. Like if people ask, as dkf just did, about others, we should get a ruling and add them to the list. It'd reduce confusion all around, I think.
On the bubble means they're being considered for too uber status. I had Hourman last season and I still have him. As JB said, I just had to ditch the Worlogog.

No, that was a not yet finalized list. Hence, the characters listed as "on the bubble", because JB hadn't decided yet. They've all been ruled on now, so there is no more bubble. Give me a second, I'll go dig up the finalized list.

Here is a link to the final list of who was too uber. (http://www.superherohype.com/forums/showpost.php?p=5850201&postcount=13141)
Just to clarify: That list is not a comprehensive list of everyone who is too uber (otherwise, it would have people like Galactus, etc., obviously.) That's just a list of the characters who were on peoples rosters at the end of season 2 but were deemed too uber for season 3. The bar has been lowered somewhat, so that people like Thanos and Amazo, who were previously allowed, now are banned. Even though there are lots of other too ubers who aren't on that list (because no one had them at the time), the list should still be helpful in giving people an idea of what makes a character too powerful for the DTL.
Suggestion: Maybe that should go in the update thread, at least for a while . . . this is the second time I've had to dig up the link for someone. (Not that I mind, it just might be more convenient to put it somewhere where everyone can find it easily.)
Oh, and for any new participants, you should know that you can always argue your case if you think someone should be allowed. (Although for the ones listed in that link, it's already been argued ad infinitum.) But it's up to the DTL Commisioner (Johnny Blaze) to make the final call.

Man,.. my daughter looks creepy there!
We really should compile a list of as many characters as possible. Like if people ask, as dkf just did, about others, we should get a ruling and add them to the list. It'd reduce confusion all around, I think.
On the bubble means they're being considered for too uber status. I had Hourman last season and I still have him. As JB said, I just had to ditch the Worlogog.
I've been bugging Blaze to do that for forever and a day.
Is The Fallen One allowed? The Destroyer? Thanos? Elders of the Universe?
Plenty of Elders would be allowed. The Champion (without power gem anyhow) The Posessor... Only one that woulden't be fair game would be The Runner. :up:

I know, but I said I was busy and to start without me. Seriously, start it yourself, since you've read more comics than I have anyway, and compile a decent list of characters you think would be Too Uber. Then you can hit me up with the info you've gathered on the characters, and I'd be able to make a final call on them.
It'd go much faster that way. :up:
True. I wasn't trying to be condescending or anything in the first place, I was just saying.
And the whole "I've read more comics" thing. Feh... I get the **** end because I'm the biggest dork? Not fair!

The Runner
Superman Prime
Composite Superman
Amalgamax
The Sentry
The Spectre
I think we can basically proceed by acclamation. If someone names a character as too uber, and no one disagrees, then we can just call them too uber without giving a whole list of reasons. If there's debate, then each side can give their arguments and JB can decide. Sound good?
Sounds very good. :up:
Nice one with Amalgamax, by the way. Didn't think anyone else knew about the Pre-Crisis Second Composite Superman. :D
And I'll get to work on that list.

Good to have you aboard, DKF. :up:
Thanks, glad to be aboard, I'll do what I can to make things more interesting.
And since people have said that you can argue a characters case for not being too uber I would like to argue Thanos and Mephisto.
Well I know Mephisto is extremley uber but characters such as Silver Surfer who is allowed have resisted/defeated him before. Also from what I do know about Mephisto his really super uber powers are at their strongest in his realm, so he becomes much weaker when battling outside.
Thanos I know a good deal about until lately I'm not too sure how much more powerful he has become but I do know that he is now an immortal, but characters such as SS once again who is allowed has held his own against the mad titan. Also from what I've seen Drax is allowed and he was meant to kill Thanos.
Those would be my arguments.:D
More Too Ubers
Atum/Demiurge
Quasar w/Uni-Power
Mephisto
Dormammu
Ego
Gaea
Some incarnations of Graviton
The Stranger
Pluto

The Silver Surfer vs. Mephisto, well, one of the reasons Norrin does so well is because of his pure soul. He's pretty much the embodiment of good and Mephisto doesn't do too well against that. Oh, not to mention that Mephisto is simply toying with him msot of the time. In Lee's SS vol. 1, it was stated he could kill Norrin quite easily.
Drax never had much sucess against Thanos. Put up a fight, but we've seen Thanos smack dumb and smart Drax down like a *****.
And The Surfer's never held his own against Thanos. Thanos can literally block his best shots, no big deal... And beat him to death. To death.

Okay sounds good, so then even outside his realm Mephisto is still super uber?
Also what is the current status of the green lantern ring, in terms of yellow being it's weakness?

Kyle's ring was never weak against yellow. As for the other Lantern's, if we go by Rebirth, then neither are Hal, John, Guy, or Kilowog's rings (which is the entire current Corps). Any other Lantern's, since they'd be before Rebirth, would still be weak against yellow.

But the Transformers started as a comic book, then moved into toys and tv. I think He-Man started as toys and tv, then moved into comics. If that's true, then they fall under the Star Wars rule, and won't be allowed.

If He-Man interacted with Superman (and I remember seeing a comic where they met), it'd fall under the same rule as Transformers.

I know the Aliens and Predators have appeared with Superman and Batman before, for example.

Tons of non-Marvel/Dc comics character potential there since there is a dearth of crossovers published. I'd say no to those, since they are guised as crossovers, but the He-Man thing seems different, since they actually appeared in a DC Comics line of comics.

A few more additions to the tuber list (tuber = "too uber", for those who haven't figured it out by now), some of which are obvious (e.g., Parallax), but I could see someone new to the league trying to pick them up.
Dr. Strangefate
Superman (1 Million)
Parallax
Modt (Even though he usually hasn't done much -- just by virtue of being supposedly a thousand times more powerful than Jahf, who has one-punch KOed Gladiator, etc.)
X-Man (Shaman version)
X-Man (Banner/Richards/Xavier)
Gog (the Kingdom) We discussed this one in the too uber debate, but I don't think JB listed in in the final list. But the concensus was that Kingdom Gog was too uber, but Actions Comics Gog was OK.
Dark Phoenix
I'm not quite sure about the "good" Phoenix. She had mental blocks that made her weaker, to the point where she actually got beat by Magneto, was unable to destroy Jahf, and Firelord at least put up an OK fight (it didn't last that long, she seemed to get the better shots in, but he was still OK at the end). By last season's standards, I think she should have been allowed . . . now I'm not totally sure.

Comments on the above tuber list are of course welcome. Note that everyone above BION are people JB already ruled on after a lot of debate (because they were on people's rosters at the end of season 2), so those aren't likely to become legal.

I don't see how the Runner (without the gem) too uber btw

But what's obvious to current DTLers wouldn't necessarily be obvious to new members. A few are obvious (Dark Phoenix, Parallax, etc.), the only reason I thought anyone might try to pick those is some sort of dumb reasoning based on the fact that they evolved from regular heroes. But many of them are ones that people have actually tried to pick up before or talked about picking up, like Strangefate, Sentry, the X-Man from "What If?", etc.
I do agree that it's not necessary to list every single character who's Skyfather-level and up, but I don't think it hurts to have a few of them on the list to reemphasize to new members that characters of that level aren't DTL legal.

Good! You guys get rid of all those Amalgam guys yet?So far as I know, they're still allowed (even though I personally think they're lame), other than too-ubers like Strangefate.

Jemm, Son of Saturn (http://spider-bob.com/heroes/dc/Jemm.htm) , related to the Martians, and has high empathic abilities, but does anybody know if he has the same levels of strength, speed and durability as other Martians, and also the other powers like the enhanced vision, phasing, invisibility and shapeshifting?
The Ray (http://www.classicmarvel.com/cast/ray.htm) , who has some sort of light manipulation.

The Ray (the one you linked too was the second BTW) is a reg. He was on the defenders' team, coincedentally also something with Atomic Punks in the team name. He was a reg there.

How so? Engleheart included all of The Elders... Obliterator was pretty powerful, but he ended up getting beaten just like The Champion. The Runner however... :D

Two points:
1. DTL. Heh, those are my initials, too.
2. What is all this? How do you sign up?
You don't exactly sign up.
This thread is just as good a place as any if you're interested. Just say the word and we'll give you the team. Meh, I'll send a PM right now about what the DTL's about.

Two points:
1. DTL. Heh, those are my initials, too.
2. What is all this? How do you sign up?
Right now there's:
13 definitely returning (wiegeabo, AS, prime, Corp., Harlekin, Leaguer, JB, LadyVader, Nightwing, Union Jack, X, Roughneck, Guyverjay)
1 new owner (dark_knight_fan)
1 possibly returning (Tropico)
3 possibly not returning (XFanTim, Gilrean, Ahura)
1 definitely not returing (JH)
0 ownerless
= 1 team unaccounted for
(Jason)
If Trop and Jason (who we haven't heard from in a long time) return, we're not going to have any open spots (all 16 teams will be filled). Although, with the number of new players that seem to be wanting to join, JB may have to bump it back up to 24 teams ;) (doubtful).
But even if we don't have any spots open, you're more than welcome to stick around. Usually, a couple of owners have to drop out during the season for various reasons, and you could pick up their team. And, if nothing else, you can participate in discussions and vote for teams during battles.

Season III
As for teams next season, the minimum I want is 16, but, if there's enough genuine interest, I would be more than happy to bump it up to 20. Hell, if there were enough people who would actually participate on a weekly basis I'd have no problem keeping it at 24 teams.
The count thus far is:
1) The Blazing Horde (Owner: Johnny Blaze)
2) Neverwhere (Owner: Tropico)
3) Black’s Storm (Owner: Gilrean)
4) Claws of Veeshan (Owner: The Leaguer)
5) The Jason Organization (Owner: Jason C C)
6) Heroes of the New Age (Owner: Nightwing)
7) Chaos & Order (Owner: Wiegeabo)
8) Devastating Silence (Owner: AnnoyingSilence)
9) The Immortal Guyvers (Owner: Ahura Mazda/Guyverjay)
10) The Atomic Punks (Owner: primemover)
11) The Tremendous Ten (Owner: XFanTim)
12) The He-Naners (Owner: Roughneck)
13) Everybody In The Casa Mare (Owner: LadyVader)
14) The Mystic Creampuffs (Owner: TheCorpulent1)
15) Chaos Theory II (Owner: Harlekin)
16) Justice Supreme ver.2 (Owner: Union Jack)
17) The New Defenders (Owner: X)
18) Infinite 8 + 2 (Owner: Dark_Knight_Fan)
Now, Gilrean and Tim might end up going, as well as Ahura. Though, if Ahura has to drop out, Guyver will just be running the Guyvers by his lonesome I assume.
Jason C C I PMed earlier and gave a 72 hour deadline to get back to me and tell me whether he's still in or not. If I don't here from him in the alloted time, his team will become ownerless.
Franklin, since you haven't been around in a few months, and you didn't reply to my PM, I disbanded your team. If you want to jump back in though, you may. But, remember that you will be expected to participate each week, along with everyone else.
Roughneck does not accept PMs (I tried him earlier), so if any of you see him online tell him that if he still wants in the DTL then he has to start participating. If I don't hear from him within one week, I'll put his team down as ownerless as well.
Rigel7soldiers, you're more than welcome to jump in if you want to. Now, I or someone else can give you a rundown on how to create a team from scratch, or you can wait and take over a team when one becomes available.
Also, every owner in the DTL will be having to agree to participate each and every week. Now, sometimes life will get in the way, and that's understandable, but multiple unexcused weeks missed (especially in a row) will cause said owner to be expelled from the DTL. So, even if it's only a brief paragraph, it would be advisable to have something up each week.
Very nice. Especially the more owners part. :up:
And there are still my two friends that want in. :up:
TheCorpulent1
06-19-2005, 06:01 PM
Cool. Are you gonna put the ownerless teams back up in the Update thread, JB? I agree with whomever said they should be there. If new people come in, they'll at least be able to see some teams of free characters to give them ideas or whatever.

06-19-2005, 06:31 PM

13 definitely returning (wiegeabo, AS, prime, Corp., Harlekin, Leaguer, JB, LadyVader, Nightwing, Union Jack, X, Roughneck, Guyverjay)
2 new owners (dark_knight_fan, Rigel7soldiers)
1 possibly returning (Tropico)
3 possibly not returning (XFanTim, Gilrean, Ahura)
1 definitely not returing (JH)
0 ownerless
= 3 teams unaccounted for
