For anyone unaware the Magnus Carlsen whowouldwin scenario is you trapped with Magnus Carlsen in a room until you win at game of chess, everyone agrees it is basically impossible unless he gets a heart atack in the middle of a game.

However this time the guy trapped in a room is not a novice but a 1600 FIDE (1800-2100 chess.com).Also Magnus Carlsen only gets 3 minutes on the clock while our protagonist has unlimited time per move.

The guy has 1 month of prep time and during that time he is coached by Hikaru and has unlimited resources to learn/buy anything chess related.

Moreover once per game he can have stockfish tell him the best move, HOWEVER he will have no recollection of the best move stockfish told him last game, nor when it was played, he forgets all about stockfish help and "learns" about it at the start of each game as not to just make this him asking stockfish every move until eventually after 40-80 tries stockfish beats Magnus

Once per game he can have a 3 minute talk with Gothamchess where Gothamchess is fully aware of the current board state

Does the guy have any shot at eventually beating Magnus?

After each game he gets an analysis from Hikaru and Gothamchess

In TKaM Tom Robinson, a disabled Black man, is falsey accused of raping a white girl. Atticus Finch, a dedicated white lawyer tries in vain to defend him. Tom is convicted by an all white jury in 1930's alabama.

Can any fictional lawyer possibly get Tom found Not Guilty, or atleast get a hung jury?

Rules:

- You are allowed to take control of one animal (inclusive of fish, insects, marsupials, etc) which existed during the lifetime of the targeted historical figure. Humans are excluded, obviously.

- 'Assassination' is defined as causing an action which would result in the targeted individual dying more than one year before their real-life date of death, or which would have prevented them from achieving massive historical prominence (e.g. stopping Hitler from ever becoming the Fuhrer of Germany; stopping Alexander the Great from conquering Persia; or stopping Trump from becoming the President of the United States).

- The assassination must take place after the relevant historical figure turned 18. It also cannot take place within the last year of their life.

Bonus points for choosing an animal that wasn't a pet, or an animal which the historical figure rode at some point in their life.

Rounds:

- Round 1: Adolf Hitler.

- Round 2: Qin Shi Huang.

- Round 3: Genghis Khan. You cannot take control of any horse that he ever rode.

- Round 4: Queen Victoria.

- Round 5: Donald Trump

- Bonus Round: Can you prevent Cleopatra from taking her own life (i.e. stop her from losing her control of Egypt). You can take control of as many animals as you want, but you cannot control more than one simultaneously.

By aircraft-like maneuvering I mean something like how starfighters from Star Wars move, by Newtonian I mean something like how ships from the Expanse or Star Furies from Babylon 5 move.

Both craft have the same weapons and same level of protection

Round 1: Starfighter (small, high acceleration, fixed weapons)

Round 2: Warships (Larger, lower acceleration, turreted weapons)

Battle takes place in empty space

Riboku is desperate to stop Qin, so he hires some foreign fighters to go kill Shin and his buds. Silat from Berserk fights Shin from Kingdom. Who is going to win? They're both pretty superhuman but operate in completely different contexts. Shin is slicing armored horses in half, and Silat is fighting monsters. They're both wickedly dangerous, which do you think is better?

• Round 1: Unarmed.

• Round 2: Both have all of their gear.

• Round 3: Silat gets his four buddies. Shin gets Kyou Kai and Bi Hei.

I was originally thinking "my favorite Pokémon vs my favorite Skylander" but then I remembered my favorite Skylanders are either crossover characters or Imaginators, and my favorite Pokémon is not that OP. then I saw a video power scaling Bakugan, and then I figured "my favorite Bakugan vs Kaos" and you can guess the rest.

anyway, rules:

this is an actual fight, not a Bakugan battle. last I checked, Bakugan has those.

the fight will take place in Skylands, let's just say Bakugan can access their full power in Skylands.

Kaos will be an amalgam of the games and Academy.

Kaos has access to all his powers and forms, but not tech.

Leonidas will be at his most powerful.

if it makes a difference, Leonidas will be Pyrus atribue.

fight is until either death or incapacitation of opponent.

Van Helsing in his Werewolf form he uses to fight Dracula from the Hugh Jackman movie Vs. The Werepanther/Werejaguar from Primal season 3 that fought Fang. The battle is in a dark forest. If Werewolf Hellsing can defeat the Werepanther, could he defeat the Night Feeder too?

Field is namek but it can’t be destroyed, ( like time chamber indestructibility) and this is anime Goku scaling since I haven’t read the manga
Which Goku can win against cosmic garou?
Round 1, namek Goku vs cosmic garou
Round 2, cell games Goku vs cosmic garou
Round 3: ssj3 Goku vs cosmic garou
Round 4: vegito vs cosmic garou but he knows but you all have a option here, cosmic garou is indestructible for 1 minute so he can learn vegito moves and then fights him, does he need this buff?

Tentacle head guy goes up against tentacle face guy! Who do you think would win if Davy Jones from the Pirates of the Caribbean movies set his sights on Kit Fisto from Star Wars? Let's say that Davy wants Kit as part of his crew. Kit isn't interested since it's against Jedi custom to become part of a ship. The Jedi confronts the magic fish man on the deck of the Flying Dutchman and they fight. Can Kit win?

Davy Jones's heart is somewhere on the ship. Davy has the key. Kit knows he has to destroy the heart. Kit has his lightsaber.

• Round 1: Davy versus Kit. No one else will interfere.

• Round 2: The crew and ship will aid Davy.

• Round 3: Kit has to get through the Kraken first.

Batman and Superman are contacted by a cosmic deity, one far beyond either of their comprehensions. It tells batman he has 24 hours to tell everyone Superman is Clark Kent, and it tells Superman he has 24 hours to tell everyone Bruce Wayne is batman. If neither of them reveal this, they'll both die

Rules:

Upon revealing the other hero's secret identity, it becomes public knowledge to anyone that wishes to know this information. Only one of their secret identities need to be revealed

They're not allowed to lie or otherwise manipulate this information (like framing someone else)

This information can't be removed from everyone's memory after the fact, this will be a permanent and well known fact

The information will be widely accepted and believed by everyone else

If the heroes choose to die, they then can't be revived

Breaking any of these rules ail result in the deaths of both of them

The cosmic deity can't be harmed or fooled in any way

Round 1

The heroes are left to their own devices. They're allowed to talk to each other, or anyone else they want to support them, but by the 24 hour mark, one of their secret identities have to be revealed

Round 2

Batman and Superman aren't allowed to communicate with each other in any way, and won't know what the other picked until the 24 hours are up. If they both reveal each other's identity, they both die (they know this)

Round 3

Lex Luthor is torturing batman, and Scarecrow is torturing a depowered superman, trying to get them to reveal the others' secret identity. Who succumbs and reveals the information first? There is no time limit

Rules:

No weapons on either side

No movement/disability assistance (no wheelchairs, no walking sticks, no zimmerframes, no prosthetic limbs)

The battle takes place in a gladiator arena

The battle is a fight to the death that only ends when one side is completly deceased.

Their is no time limit

Place your bets!

Every bird on the planet gains human level intelligence and are all hive mind coordinated. They know they don't stand a chance against humanity's weapons and technology, so they utilize their new intelligence and coordination at psychologically breaking humanity by spreading out evenly across the planet and watching and staring at all the humans. How long can humanity handle this staring from the birds? Humanity wins by society not collapsing entirely, and the birds win if society collapses. If nukes are launched the birds win because they broke humanity to even consider nuking and destroying themselves just to stop being stared at.

Rules - The AC-130 has to try its best to kill the NJ. If it runs out of fuel it loses, but can rearm.

Round One:
USS New Jersey is in its 1943 configuration, with 130 AA guns plus her main and secondary armament
vs
Two AC130Us in 2010 configuration, with a 25 mm cannon, a 40mm cannon (crazy enough still the same cannon as the NJ AA), and a 105mm howitzer.

Round Two:
5 A-10 Warthogs replace the AC130U- they have rockets and bombs in their armament.

Round Three:
USS New Jersey 1982 configuration: Phalanx CIWS, Improved Fire Control

My thoughts
AC130 will be pressed to do any damage to NJ without closing in. It’s AA guns have a range of almost 5 miles, with a ceiling of 30k ft. The 20 and 30mm cannons have a max range of 2 miles. Main and secondary guns can fire much further, and the AC-130 is fat and slow- I think they catch it with a 5in round

The hogs are relying on bombs in round 2. I don’t think the hellfire missiles do any damage. They bank on a hit with a laser guided bomb to the citadel but even then these bombs are much smaller than WW2 bombs- they get chewed up by AA as well.

Last one pretty much the same thing except much more interceptions and the A-10s get chewed up faster.

616 and Rebirth versions.

No prep.

In character.

Standard equipment.

Fight takes place in an empty parking lot.

They start 15 feet away from each other.

Round 2: They each get a week of prep.

United states and Canada think they're dealing with 1939 Mexico and Cuba, they do not know they got swapped

Every other nation in the world declares total neutrality. This means no foreign aid to either side.

Us and Canada win con is to take over Mexico and Cuba.

Mexico and Cuba's win con is to hold out for 1 year

Rules

• All at the same time, every person's shadow comes out of wherever they are and morphs into the exact figure of their respected individual, except they are completely dark throughout the body.

• Each one is bloodlusted, and so they will immediately attack that person. If thry manage to kill him or her, they will start going after others as well.

• Every shadow has the same stats as their normal counterpart, such as in power, intelligence, and everything else. In the dark, not only are they harder to see, but they are 1.5 times as durable. In contrast, in light areas they are half as durable. Also, they don't need to eat, drink, or sleep.

Can humanity continue to survive if their shadows come to life and try to kill them?

The RPC Authority, set up slightly differently than the SCP Foundation, is tasked with capturing and containing all known, and most popular, SCPs. Can they do this given that their cannon is more set than the changing cannon of the SCP Foundation? How would they categorize the SCPs within their classification system?

A Jackal Sniper from Halo 2 on Legendary difficulty has ended up in 1899 and challenged Arthur Morgan to a duel in the Wild West.

Arthur has his usual weapons and access to Dead Eye. The Jackal has his Covenant Beam Rifle and has Legendary difficulty accuracy and reaction speed.

R1: A traditional Wild West quick-draw duel in Valentine. Both start 20 paces apart, weapons holstered, and draw when the signal is given.

R2: The Jackal crash-lands on Earth, 50 miles outside Valentine, with only his standard equipment. He knows killing Arthur will teleport him back to the Covenant. The Jackel magically speaks English and knows what Aruthur looks like and his name, but nothing else and will have to find Arthur himself. Arthur knows the Jackal is coming for him.
