Americans are dumb. But I'm sure [chat] will provide better answers, right? Poll options are listed in order of least to most difficult, based on the... above poll, I guess? Not all animals are represented... I didn't include household pets because I'm not a fucking monster.
Yeah I need two clarifications:
1. Is all of [chat] teaming up
2. Is the animal typical of its species or is it “the strongest” of its species

Wait another one

1A. If all of [chat] is teaming up, is the fight lost when the first chatter goes down or only after all of us perish

Wait fuck I already voted….plz answer anyway
1. Just one [chat]ter, but you may choose a champion. (1A is moot)
2. The animal is as strong as the [chat]ter believes themselves to be as a specimen of humankind.

    Goose and eagle are the only two I could take. This is not based on fighting ability, really. Just that I could grab, hold, and fall on top of these relatively light and fragile animals. It would not be a glorious battle, I might lose an eye, and I'd rather resolve the conflict in literally any other way.

    But I am confident and I don't think doing a Dunning-Krueger here

    This reminds me of Fight Night Round 3 on the 360, which had a fun character creator. A friend and I made versions of our other friends in it to use and had great fun playing it. Eventually we got drunk enough that playing was hard, so we just let the computer play each character.

    And then we bet on it.

    So we were betting real money with each other while the CPU played Fight Night Round 3 against itself using created characters that looked like our friends.

    It was awesome.

    When I was talking to Hahnsboo about this very silly poll, we were discussing "What are even the terms of this fight? Like, if one of the birds fly away, is it a draw or a win?"

    Mostly, we were discussing "Who the FUCK thinks they can even harm an elephant with their bare hands??"

    a single well placed punch would literally kill almost every bird in existence regardless of size
    mine you not every bird at once
    just the particular bird of choice that is currently being punched

    Both of you are highly motivated to kill at least one of the other and will not flee for five minutes. No prep time. If one of you is more injured than the other but both of you will live without medical attention, it's a draw

    I'm not sure that, bare-handed, I could actually do anything of note to a king cobra. I think you'd have to get teeth involved tbh to score any kind of damage at all, and I dont know if I am prepared to bite a live cobra.

    I can win a fight with any venomous snake as long as they are not allowed to sneak up on me and as long as I can declare victory before the poison takes hold.

    DK would rather argue with an eagle: confirmed.

    This exact poll came up in [chat] one time, when the poll first came out. But I don't think [chat] weighed in on it in poll form.

    nah, you just grab it by the end of the tail and swing it around your head enough so gravity does the work so it can't coil up and bite you and then WAM, right against the ground

    An elephant that is highly motivated to kill you seems like an incredibly scary thing.

    Jokes on you, I've never been motivated, let alone highly motivated.
