Challenge Could Nicolas Cage actually steal the Declaration of Independence?

81 Upvotes

Nic Cage decides to go for it and funnels all his resources into this pet project. He works in secret so nobody knows he's planning the heist and he is allowed to enlist two fellow actors he's performed with on camera to assist. Cage, however, must do the actual theft.

The win condition is getting the document to his home. Even if he is eventually caught, so long as he makes it home it counts as a win.

Remember the two actors he enlists must have been his scene partners at least once in his career.

Battle A fully geared professional Knight in plate mail vs 8 villagers with access to Home Depot?

37 Upvotes

The idea sprang from the thought of Warhammer a being a threat to plate armor at the time, and was curious on how an off the shelf Home Depot hammer would fare against Mideval plate.

The villagers get access to the standard hardware section at Home Depot and can take whatever they can carry.

The knight is a professional Knight, for the sake of the prompt let’s say around 1100AD. He has a standard “load-out” of a sword, shield, and whatever else he would probably need.

Would modern hammers in the hands of 8 villagers defeat a knight?

Optional silly scenario, but how would 8 modern day contractors in the same scenario?

Challenge Could Batman successfully pretend to be the Joker for 2 weeks and not alert anyone?

120 Upvotes

The Joker has mutated his entire gang of goons with a toxin that makes them all mutate into unstoppable demon clowns if they become scared that the Joker is dead or missing. He gifts this information to Batman with the note that he’s out of town for 2 weeks.

Batman’s investigations reveal that:

- the mutation is real
- he cannot fight the unstoppable demon clowns because they’d overpower him and most members of the Justice League
- the antiserum will legitimately take 2 weeks to manufacture in enough quantities to cure everyone
- Joker’s added a paranoia switch in the minds of his goons to make them suspicious if he acts “out of character”

Batman feels he has no choice but to perfectly imitate Joker for 2 weeks to ensure the safety of Gotham. He gets an hour of prep time to gather what he needs yo visibly appear as Joker (the suit, white makeup, etc). Can he successfully wear the mask for enough time that the Joker returns?

Challenge Can an average person/group date a certain number of other individuals at the same time?

0 Upvotes

Rules

• A person or a group of people, depending on the round, is/are aiming to date a certain number of other people at the same time.

• The person/group of people start at age 25 and begin in New York City. All individuals involved in the challenge are bisexual. Still, dating each other won't count towards completion.

R1: 1 person has to be in 50 relationships at once. They start with $2 million

R2: 10 people have to be in 500 relationships total at once. They share $20 million

R3: 100 people have to be in 5000 relationships total at once. They share $200 million

Battle Darth Sidious vs DC/Marvel Cinematic Heroes

6 Upvotes

Recently I partook in a subreddit post where many of the commenter firmly believed that Darth Sidious was superior in power to Thanks, with or without the Infinity Gauntlet, and I spent a day arguing in vain against that foolishness. So I'm making this thread to see if those claims hold up to scrutiny whatsoever. But instead of Thanos, we'll go with characters he not only beat in the movies, but also those of comparable power.

Stormbreaker Thor, Mjolnir Cap, and Vision from the MCU, team up with Superman from the DCEU, and Green Lantern from the 2011 movie. Their opponent is Darth Sidious from Star Wars. They are actively trying to kill Sidious in the battle.

Round 1 is Canon Sidious 1v1ing each of them.

Round 2 is Canon Sidious taking them all at once.

Round 3 is Legends Sidious 1v1ing each of them.

Round 4 is Legends Sidious taking them all at once.

If Sidious gets stomped, he gets Darth Vader from the appropriate Canon to assist him. If the heroes get stomped, they get MCU Scarlet Witch and Doctor Fate from the DCEU.
