  1. When Phyllis is flashed, he is insensitive and mocks her. Having to fire an employee leads to him agonizing for a day to the point where it’s worse. He puts Dwight in charge of Health Insurance because he doesn’t want to make hard decisions and upset others always. He hits Meredith with his car, then causes even more embarrassment by taking everyone to the hospital to try and force her to apologize. Diversity Day. He almost triggers a Union-shutdown of the branch in response to a women’s meeting. He ruins Christmas because Phyllis is Santa. His cold sore leads to him telling every partner he has an STD, rather than going and checking it out. He proposes on a 4th date. Immediately reveals Stanley’s affair, by calling his wife. When branches merge, everyone except one quits. The one who doesn’t quit had to go to therapy. Scott’s Totz.
  2. Michael Scott is bad. On a cruise ship he announces that the ship is sinking, leading to people jumping over. He sprints out of a burning building before his underlings. He does not, in fact, stay calm. In order to demonstrate the problem of depression, he almost ends himself. He creates a Golden Ticket contest that loses the company money. He is stressful where his underlings have heart issues by being near him.
  3. Benny’s biggest strength is that he has toon invulnerability. Any wacky obstacles he should be able to overcome.
  4. I think Marvin is much more straightforward in how he has “created a suit of armor.” AM wiped out humanity and then went into manipulating them. There’s not really evidence that he could shield everyone. Marvin has specifically accomplished the setup.
  5. I’ll repost what I did on the other Marvin matches: Whenkidnapped by the bellicose Krikkit robots and tied to the interfaces of their intelligent war computer, Marvin simultaneously manages to plan the entire planet's military strategy, solve "all of the major mathematical, physical, chemical, biological, sociological, philosophical, etymological, meteorological and psychological problems of the Universe, except his own, three times over", and compose a number of lullabies. Marvin is strong here.
  6. Unfortunate for Buddy. He’s good at spreading cheer, just not on that scale.
  7. Kathy Bates asks him to do that “because she can’t stand to do it herself” and sets it up so that he looks at fault. He is excited about it, but he isn’t helping them rehabilitate. In the real world, Michael Scott would be fired ten times over. Any time he is asked to keep a secret, he immediately spills it, he blunders every single task he is given and is kept afloat by a series of miracles. His solution to his branch facing downsizing is to karate fight Dwight, his reaction to sleeping with his boss is to immediately reveal it to everyone, his pitch to keep his branch afloat is a documentary style movie put together on iMovie, his reaction to a gay employee is to kiss him. All of these are PR nightmares and would cause damage in a real setting. What Michael is apt to do is repeatedly remind everyone of the zombie problem and then cause even more issues. There is little evidence of Michael doing anything more than being a decent salesman but a truly horrific face of anything.
  8. That was a different scenario. Sabre wanted him to be the fall guy. Far more often (the watermark episode) Michael Scott is the last guy you want trying to rehabilitate your image. He gets awarded Employee of the Year by the company to try and rally morale and then makes things worse. Michael Scott is not going to be good at covering up or distracting a long term problem.
  9. This is what I was trying to articulate earlier. Battle Beast is actually fairly bad for this category. The Road Runner is going to Meep Meep and get out of there and that’s going to be all Battle Beast needs to just shake his head and go in search of worthy fighters.
  10. Battle Beast seems likely to ignore Road runner. Not really an opponent who will give satisfying combat.
  11. I think Jigsaw has more possibilities. I’m not sure the recognizable aspects of Kevin M.
  12. I think Michael Scott is a PR problem and will almost certainly do something to goozle Umbrella Pharmaceuticals. Dig Em is fun and will help be a distraction.
  13. Fair enough on the training for the scenario. I was thinking to account for which one would train more effectively. It is true it doesn’t account for that in the scenario. I still think Jordan has the ability to get through this victorious.
