Those numbers say nothing; The value of stats differ from game to game.

This implies, quite correctly, that my mind is dark and damp and full of tiny translucent fish.

Huh? He has 20hp maxed D (that number means something 12 bit processing limit iirc.) maxed speed (256 is the magic number which is used for speed and hit saving processing, it's all an 8 bit game can process iirc. Hell if you get 255 in Final Fantasy VI and get one more it wraps back to 1.

Just the fact that it has 20 HP and high D and speed is enough.

@26 I've never played the games and I can tell 4096 seems a little absurd for defense.

Yeah, a defense measured in thousands when the other stats reach dozens is pretty clear it's hard to kill.

Fight smart, not fair.

Well, yeah. I don't think the trope namer makes for such a good image; it's basically Just A Slime And A Caption. I would be in favor of finding a webcomic example; surely a trope this common has been parodied in the plethora of gaming comics.

Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!

I believe #24 is clear enough. I never played the series myself, but it gets the idea across. True, the value of stats vary from game to game, but the gaps between the variables do the job well.

The words above are to be read as if they are narrated by Morgan Freeman.

Clock is set...the King Slime pic is going up when the clock's up unless someone's got a better suggestion or a serious objection before then.

Hearing no objections, King Slime is up, potholed, tagged, and captioned per an earlier suggestion (DQZ?) Locking up.
