  • I can confirm from kbin to the degree it matters the original poll post is listed as “deleted_by_author” in my comments page, manually opening the URL for the page shows no comments, only the total number of favorites and reduces (possibly only the reduces from kbin specifically as the split shown is 71 up/2 down which is much different than the listed number of down in other comments)





  • One thing to consider, assuming the red one is mental time travel (which is the only way it’d really be at all useful), you’re essentially murdering everyone who exists from your subjective present to the jump point to replace with at best very similar clones and possibly no one or completely different people. Then you have to also assume the timeline isn’t fixed and you can actually change things, and thus contend with butterfly effect causing divergence making your knowledge less useful. Sure, little changes probably won’t impact things on a global scale for a while, but once you start doing big things like investing or preventing terrorist attacks or something that could cause major divergence. Ethically any kind of useful time travel should be limited to “World is already wiped out” scale scenarios where the alternative is worse.








  • An interesting one, the Clone spell has been stealth errataed several times, some printings specifying it only works on Medium creatures specifically, for whatever reason that restriction was added at one point after not previously being there, and has since been removed again. Another fun one is the Heavy property RAW only impacted Small creatures for the majority of the Edition, Tiny creatures could technically RAW use them with no problem. Which was obviously nonsense, and most DMs would either give the Disadvantage or completely prevent them from using it, and eventually it got errataed to “Small or Tiny”
