I'll think you don't until you prove otherwise. You have not answered my question.


I have another question for all contestants:

Why is Darkness considered stereotypically evil in the human society?

This question isn't just limited to the game; it applies to life in general. If you can give a detailed explanation of why Darkness is considered evil, then you truly do understand Darkness. I expect the answer to touch at least some aspects of human psychology.
To be or not to be, I can do both at once. Go learn quantum mechanics, n00b.

Ever thought of asking the question correctly the first time?
I'm happy that all of the abilities on darkness creatures, shields, weapons. are appropriate.

You say Human Society but Humans don't have a singular society which as a whole describes an impression of darkness. I'm not going to Pander to you when you don't care what my answer is unless it is yours. Even in your request you say to know Darkness I must have to agree that Darkness is Evil. Get Stuffed.

This question isn't just limited to the game; it applies to life in general. If you can give a detailed explanation of why Darkness is considered evil, then you truly do understand Darkness. I expect the answer to touch at least some aspects of human psychology.
I'll just quote myself on this one and reword a few sentences:
Whatever is enshrouded in Darkness is unseen, unknown. And not knowing what you face breeds fear. Darkness is looked upon as a negative thing evil because it can't be looked upon. This in no way implies Darkness actually is evil though, it's just common psychology, you don't understand what it is, thus you fear it.
Nothing can be feared more than what is unknown.

Fair enough. However, can you explain the reasoning behind your response? The question asks "why do you think you understand Darkness", which implies that in fact, the person who asked the question does not know why you think you understand Darkness, and is curious to find out. If I already think that you do understand Darkness, then I would not have asked my question at all. I am curious to see why you chose to respond with a rhetorical question of your own.

Quote

I asked why Darkness is considered evil, as a stereotype, by many people in the world. In no way was I implying that to understand Darkness you must agree with such a stereotype.

Quote

Sigh. It appears that I must rephrase my question again.

Why do many people consider Darkness to be evil?

You are not obligated to answer the question again if you do not wish to.

@ torb, wizardcat and Kael
25. What do you think of this?
http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,20338.0.html (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,20338.0.html)
25.  Incredibly expensive for its effect especially since it doesn't stack. Compare it to vampire for cost to damage. I'll take Vamp thanks. It also doesn't fit the Crucible requirements. You also called it Dark Moon but chose art where the Moon is the brightest thing in it. Nice attempt but i'd put more work into it.

I'm a Gmod due to Integrity...
How do you balance this statement with the methodology you used to get extra nymphs?

Explain what you mean? Do you think I became a Gmod at SG's discretion not because of my Integrity but via some other means because I have lots of Nymphs? The skill I use to spin the Oracle I class as a precognition. Do you assume I used it to obtain Gmod Status?

Actually, I was planning to vote for him from the very beginning. He seemed to be the most competent Master of Darkness I've seen, better than I ever will be. I wasn't trying to flame him, I was just trying to make sure that he's truly better than all the other candidates.

I had the impression you took advantage of an in-game bug to spin daily nymphs for a long while.

Nope.

There was a bug back when you could cancel the Oracle and spin again. It was reported by me and some others. That was before I was Gmod.
More recently, I suggested that the technique I use now is capitalisation of flawed design, but no-one can replicate it and zanz ignores it so I guess its not a bug at all.
