Dodging for beginners

[Munkcestrian RepubIic]

Questions regarding Munkcestrian dodging:
What if, hypothetically speaking, a slave learned Munkcestrian dodging?
In addition, since Munkcestrian dodging relies on tapping into the global consciousness(also known as the noosphere), would someone who could manipulate the noosphere be able to jam that, or even turn it against the practitioner?

The government would never allow a slave to learn Munkcestrian dodging. If they hypothetically did somehow know Munkcestrian dodging, they'd probably be able to dodge their way to freedom (or revenge) assuming they're not confronted by another dodger first.

If someone was dedicated enough to actually bother to learn, which is a big ask even ignoring the fact this is all theoretical and see theory 2 on the (pseudo)science behind Munkcestrian dodging, it wouldn't be impossible. But Munkcestrian dodging has had a thousand years to figure these things out, such as teaching students how to single relevant actions out and avoid being overwhelmed by a flood of irrelevant ones, and it would be a battle of minds depending on personal skill rather than an automatically successful defeat of the dodger.

Are there any measures in place to prevent a Munkcestrian Dodger from teaching the technique outside the Munkcestrian Republic?

What would be the upper-threshold limits of a Munkcestrian Dodging master?

Such a thing would be countered by sending a team of Munkcestrian dodging-trained agents to either assassinate or capture the person trying such a thing. School of Dodging candidates are carefully selected and checked by the government to avoid such a thing happening anyway (the international students were never going to be taught the most powerful form of Munkcestrian dodging, they were just getting the most basic training on the most literal 'dodging' parts of Munkcestrian dodging).

What do you mean by "upper-threshold limits"?

Like Jariri, I was wondering what the upper limits of a Munkcestrian dodger would be. For example, it has been clearly demonstrated that one would be able to dodge bullets, but what about a faster projectile such as a laser blast? I presume that a nuclear bomb would be able to killer a dodger, but what of a smaller explosive device such as a thrown grenade?

The idea of foreknowledge-based dodging seems intriguing to me, and I was thinking about how far it could logically be taken.

Pre-empting attacks is included, so lasers and grenades could be dodged. And it depends on how powerful the nuclear weapon is and whether or not they're able to detect the reactions (and how strong they are so they know how close it would be). A nuclear explosion would, in a populated area, probably have the same effect on consciousness as 9/11 did (see the Global Consciousness Project).

I see; does this mean that a Munkcestrian dodger would be completely immune to traditional projectile attacks (e.g. bullets), or would enough of them that there isn’t enough physical space for dodging be able to take one out? I’m also presuming that a Munkcestrian who was tied down or otherwise restrained wouldn’t be able to do any dodging; is this correct?

The signature left by so many bullets could very well alert them anyway.

And yes, if they *were somehow* tied down or otherwise restrained they wouldn't be able to do any dodging. But training at the Munkcestrian School of Dodging also includes getting out of ties and restraints and all that (though that's not dodging, just one of the other things taught there (alongside things like "drama in the theatrical sense, drama in the making a fuss sense")).

What?

What do you mean by "upper-threshold limits"?

As in what would be the absolute peak performance of a master Dodger's capabilities before even they might finally become vulnerable to an attack?

Is there any truth to the rumours of a single master practitioner being able to defeat thousands of trained SWAT troopers?

Could a practitioner of Munkcestrian Dodging be overpowered by sheer fatigue?

Has there ever been a Munkcestrian Dodger that was captured or killed by conventional means?

a. There is no limit to a theoretical "master Dodger" who has learnt everything there is to learn about Munkcestrian dodging. The only limit is personal skill, which is of course a person-by-person thing. Sort of unanswerable, I guess?
b. The rumoured events did happen, but realistic estimates have brought the number of Azadistanis down from thousands to hundreds.
c. Of course, that's what happened to the original monks.
d. This remains unknown both ICly and OOCly.

Would the Munkcestrian School of Dodging be open to foreign students if the fees paid were millions of pounds per term?

No. The government has no interest in allowing foreign students to attend. And the amount of money being paid is irrelevant since you gave me something like $50 trillion in return for the fake Sultan's head, remember? Munkchester has more than enough already.

Well that's retconned since that's higher than the USA's entire GDP

Is a teaching Dodging to foreign troops illegal under Munkcestrian law?
Because Edric will be offered £350,000 a month to do that?

Don't worry, you were part of Libraria and Ausitoria at the time. His GDP was $200 trillion, so it sort of works out.

Well ok but remember Sharifistan and Azadistan= seperate canons.

Would Edric accept said offer?

Bear in mind this means that by 27 he will be at least a Colonel and have the option of marrying at least 2 noblewomen.
(unless of course he gets caught for the other stuff he did)
