Building a better Strength Checker: help needed!
Re: Building a better Strength Checker: help needed!
I have experience with Japanese, and I am willing to help.
Re: Building a better Strength Checker: help needed!
Most of my research materials aren't with me, otherwise I would help. I'll just donate to the site instead. If you need anybody to look into the Japanese version of the full color manga (who doesn't know japanese) or anything related to the first five DBZ films, let me know. I'm not expecting to be of much use.

Re: Building a better Strength Checker: help needed!
As you might expect, the immediate priority starting off is the original DB anime series. I've already got Kaboom doing at least the first 13 episodes, but who else is interested in doing the pre-Z stuff?
Kanzenshuu: Is that place still around?

We might, if they screamed all the time, for no good reason.

Re: Building a better Strength Checker: help needed!
I can do it. And sorry, I asked before about "time frame". I wanted to say the time I would have to finish the checkings and write about them. For example, will Kaboom do 13 episodes a week?Herms wrote:As you might expect, the immediate priority starting off is the original DB anime series.

Re: Building a better Strength Checker: help needed!
I've got the third DB box set (or basically the 23rd TB training and the TB itself) that I can use when you guys get to that point, otherwise I'm pretty useless for DB.Herms wrote:As you might expect, the immediate priority starting off is the original DB anime series.

Re: Building a better Strength Checker: help needed!
I can most likely help with this. I just finished db and am only on episode 56 of dbz so I'd be happy to start noting power levels and such when they are mentioned. I've noticed power levels don't even get mentioned until dbz, and besides isn't it fairly obvious who's stronger than who at any given time in db?

Hmmm. It would appear that, as of January 24th, 2014, Pyrus for whatever reason deleted the whole GT Strength Checker. What's going on?DBZGTKOSDH wrote:I'm not sure if I will be able to help due to studies, at least until June.

Like with Freeza, where he starts off over 10 times stronger than all his henchmen except Ginyu (because...well, just because), then we find out he can transform and get even more powerful, and then he reveals he can transform two more times, before finally coming out with the fact that he hasn't even been using anywhere near 50% of his power. Oh, and he can survive in the vacuum of space. All this stuff is just presented as the way Freeza is, without even an attempt at rationalizing it, yet the tone dictates we're supposed to take all this silly grasping at straws as thrilling danger. So I guess I don't really take the power inflation in the Boo arc seriously, but I don't take the power inflation in earlier arcs seriously either, so there's no net loss of seriousness. I think a silly story presented as serious is harder to accept than a silly story presented as silly.

There is an archive of it ^
Re: Building a better Strength Checker: help needed!
I picked up the blue bricks 4 + 5 recently, so I'll try to factor in when the project reaches that point!

No worries. It hasn't been annihilated. It's here: w11.zetaboards.com/The_Infinity_Forum/topic/10048799/1/?x=30RandomGuy96 wrote:Hmmm.
