He's not much better than you Akrene. If you're gonna say something, don't just Troll. You can tell him not to double post, but say something that contributes to the conversation. Your post count doesn't need boosting that badly.

I can't believe that Barti has the same number of votes as Jabor. Who the hell voted for Jabor? And why are people so sure that Faquarl will win? And what the hell is Barti doing on just three votes?

Doesn't Bartimaeus make several comments throughout the first book to the effect that Jabor would whip him? Doesn't Faquarl make some... er... similar comments? And Barti doesn't seem keen to go to head-to-head with Faquarl, either. I think, based on Faquarl's and Bartimaeus' reactions to him, Jabor would probably win. I think he'd just swallow them both whole and take a post-pradial nap.

Personally, I think that Jabor would go all crazy with Detonations, yeah Barty might hide himself and wait for one to win, yes Faquarl would be much more powerful and actually have strategy. Faquarl has a pretty good chance to win, not so much Jabor, unless all his Detonations know out both Bartimaeus and Faquarl, and Barty would win from luck; he does most of the time. Or Bartimaeus would accidentally find a crack in the cube and free all of them. That's the only reason all three fight together in a brawl and all survive. And Bartimaeus is more powerful then you people think; battle of Al-Arish, he almost single handedly took out most of the utttuck or how ever you spell it.

Barti would outsmart them. as usual. remember in AoS when he set Farqual on fire? like that. :D

Yessssss... But that was totally and utterly adventitious. If it was just the three of them in a totally sealed silver or iron box without any tools- "mano a mano", as it were- I'd still have to go with Jabor.

In an open arena with all sorts of "foreign objects" (as the WWE likes to call them), I'd totally pick Barti.

...because he rocks!

An open arena...Faquarl would have more power though, because he said he works better in open space, which is partially the reason why he likes kitchens (and he likes sharp thing)!
Jabor is too stupid. Sorry to say that pensive is not a noun. You must have difficulties logging in huh? :lol:
Edit: And I still say Bartimaeus will somehow win by luck, or find a crack in the cube.

Yesssssssss.... but remember the jail break from AoS? Jabor devours all those... um... big huge guys and when he finds out Bart is a bit like "oh crap, I'm gonna die, I totally can't beat this guy?"

Mmmm- I think Barti would outsmart Faquarl. He seems to be good at the speedy retreat, too.

But, yes, a crack in the cube does seem to be just the kind of thing Barti would find. He's got luck like that.

Mmmm, I don't have too much trouble logging in. You can call me Dina, if it makes it easier.

Jabor's the most powerful of the three, and Bart could survive only by outsmarting him.

Bart would win. Not becoz of his strength, wit or other talents. He'll win cause he is damn LUCKY!!!
Here are my reasons:-
1. He alone (of all demons) had 3 (three!) masters to care for him. Affa etc. loved by Ptolemy are dead, hence not included.
2. He has survived hundreds (no, thousands) of times when he ought to have died.

Hurray for Bartimaeus!

As have the others I'm sure.
Remember, Faquarl was in the Trojan War, that couldn't have been a picnic.
Just evening out the field here.

Heres the standings:
Strongest: 1. Jabor 2. Faquarl 3. Bartimaeus
Smartest (or sly) 1. Faquarl 2. Bartimaeus (most people would argue about the first two) 3. Jabor (unanimous).
Funniest: 1. BARTIMAEUS 2. and 3. Jabor and Faquarl can fight over that.
Luckiest: 1. Bartimaeus 2. and 3. I can't really say, I don't know that much about Jabor and Faquarl's history.
Most experienced: I say three way tie.
So really, Bartimaeus has the best chance of surviving. Perhaps not winning the battle, but surviving is Bart's thing.

I think Faquarl was funnier than Jabor, because after all, Jabor didn't say much. He just screamed "BARTIMAEUS!!!" a lot.

:lol: I find that funny, and a bit disturbing.
...Please just forget what I said there.

He did, didn't he? I've been giggling uncontrollably for, like, the past three minutes. Because I realised that you're soooo right. He's like Billy's mom from "The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy," screaming about sasquatch.

...That was a random and potentially humiliating reference.

BHut positively appropriate!!
:]

Bart's the smartest!

That is why I said people would argue about the first two. The only reason I put Barty at just second (really, he and Faquarl tie for first) is because he thought he went back to the Tower after he escaped it. I find that unlike him.

hmph. Everyone makes mistakes. Farqual wasnt smart enough to forsee the fire thing was he?

Who could have? Would you foresee someone suddenly putting you on fire?
Anyway, I edit my standings. Sly is now a seperate thing and I say Barty is one, then Faquarl then Jabor.
