Other recent events have caused me to believe the apocalypse is upon us, so yeah, pigs and Granite tankers can fly.

oooo, so close! You got it backwards. The correct answer is to kick the tanker and have him immediately invited to another team of Group Flyers. That can be accomplished in maybe a second.

I have a screenshot, but someone said they were capturing the video and would get it up on YouTube.

LOL! In a related story, they got a Granite to jump with a bunch of kins also. They had 12 kins with Inertial Reduction and by Speed Boosting each other, they were able to double-stack it on the tank and he could get Superjump heights. I wasn't there for that since I didn't have anyone with IR.

Gawd, what are you, some kind of newb?

I don't know why everyone is so quick to disbelieve this, a Stone Brute was made to jump over on Pinnacle a while back. It takes a lot of Kins to overcome the -fly and -jump, but it can be done easily enough.

Alright, that's a much better explanation of how it was done, and a picture that is more believable to boot.

My issue with the other shot was there was no one near the Tanker, and it was taken by someone not on his team. I wasn't about to fiddle with perspective ingame to try and prove/disprove whether it was faked.

While your pic has no HUD, it at least shows a bunch of peeps with GFly and you give a realistic description of how to get it done.

Best evidence of all would be a shot from the tank himself or someone on his team, showing the buffs stacked on the guy in Granite. That's the best way to shut down skepticism.

The problem with images that don't have a HUD is the ease of demmo editing.

Pff, I could fake that easily. Replace the Enrage icon with the Group Fly symbol, pop a bunch of reds, bam, 18-stacked Group Fly buff image.

I highly doubt flypose emotes have even been made for the model. It would be like a lot of emotes you might try with a Shield out, just wouldn't work.

I really had to type "the guy flying in Granite" as part of that sentence for it to make sense in the context of this discussion? Really?

Well then, it's going to be a hard sell, isn't it?

Take it from the video geek - vids can be faked too. Thanks to the power of demoediting, I can give Sister Psyche the archery skills of Manticore, I can make Lady Grey throw sharks, and I can give Fusionette the appearance of more than two brain cells.

Making a Stone Granite tank fly? Bah. Child's play.

Personally, I think it is actually laid out in a completely supreme manner... you just change your power icons to mess with everyone on the boards so that they think otherwise.

There is NO amount of editing that can accomplish that. None..
