  Ok then, I'll start in F8.
  
  You go first.
  
  Also, you are scanned by Detect Evil.  Please tell me...are you evil?
  
  EDIT: I have blindsight covering the entire arena, so please tell me your starting location and visual description as well.
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Thelas: Okay, starting location is E3. My  spectral hand  will start in E6.
  You see a human wizard of about thirty years of age, seeming to come right out of one of the universities of magic.
  Unfortunately, you also see 7 other copies of him.
  He has a ring on each hand and carries a single shuriken in his hand and two (!) backpacks on his back. [Not sure how he does that, really.]
  He is also wearing a cloak and a belt.
  First turn actions:
  Spellcraft DC 17/21 to identify (I'm not sure if metamagic adds to the DC as if the spell was of higher level).  
   Spoiler 
  It's a quickened touch of idiocy.
   
  . The spectral hand begins to glow with a dark light before moving to F7 and touching you. Touch attack (I assume my BAB and STR apply normally to this.):  (1d20+7)[ 15 ]  No save, but SR applies.
  No SR and attack hits:  
   Spoiler 
  Take  (1d6)[ 6 ]  INT, WIS, and CHA penalty.
   
  .
  ----------------------
  Next, I'll cast a Spellcraft DC 21  
   Spoiler 
  Greater Dispel Magic
   
  . Dispelling effect: list all buffs (or just how many, I guess) that I can dispel.
  OO:  
   Spoiler 
  Belt of battle for a standard, using my move.
   
  .
  ----------------------
  Then I'll whack you with a Spellcraft DC 19  
   Spoiler 
  Enervation
   
  .  Ranged touch attack (ray)  (1d20+8)[ 17 ] .
  No save, but SR allowed.
  No SR and attack hits:  
   Spoiler 
  Take  (1d4)[ 4 ]  negative levels.
   
  
  ----------------------
  Lastly, I'll five-foot-step to D2. End turn.
  ----------------------
  Also, since you're buying equipment during the first turn (though before I move), I'll remember to (OO)  
   Spoiler 
  put a greater dispel magic (several days before) into my ring of greater counterspells.
   
  . My spellcraft is +24, so if it's below DC 25, don't bother spoilering it.

  EDIT 2: Also forgot my altitude: I'm flying at 40 ft unless I say otherwise.
  EDIT 3: Forgot to say I'm not evil. So here's your formal declaration of not-evilness.
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Olo Demonsbane: Well, the two touch attacks miss and your dispel...just...doesnt work.
  
   
   Spoiler 
  Countered with Ring of Counterspelling.
   
  
  
  My blindsight sees your mirror images and raises you one...they dont work.
  
  
  Across the room from you stands a tall man encased in glowing gold armor.  In his hand he wields a Giant Flail that glows brightly.  EDIT: And there are 9 of him 😛
   
   Spoiler 
  Move, Single Attack, White Raven Tactics, Spell Theft...
   
  
  
  He runs across the room at you and swings his flail once.
  
  Attack  (1d20+25)[ 37 ]  melee touch attack
  Damage  (8d8+25)[ 56 ] 
  
  After that, he makes a sharp gesture with his hand; it begins to glow softly, then more and more as your magical protections are drawn to it.  (He casts Spell Theft.)
  
  Please list all of your buffs.
  
  
  My turn is not yet completed.  The rest of it will be determined after learning how many buffs I steal.
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Thelas: That's a spell and/or spell-like, right? Level, please?
  And is it NOT a touch spell or area spell?
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Olo Demonsbane: Yes, 5th level.
  
  Its a targeted spell.
  
  Let me guess...you had spell turning up?
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Claudius Maximus: He does, and it bounces. A while back, Doc Roc ruled that this completely turns the spell around (Thelas acts as the caster and gains stolen buffs, but you use your CL and all that). This would be the third time this particular interaction has happened AFAIK.

  Since you mentioned buffing took a long time... have fun with all your dispel rolls, if I guessed what the spell does correctly. (Not in SRD, and I don't think I have the book.)
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Olo Demonsbane: Well, one of the times it bounced back was against me...or both of them, I dont remember.
  EDIT: It was both.  And both times afterwards I got hit with a feeblemind 😦
  
  I am prepared this time.  The spell does nothing.
  
   
   Spoiler 
  Countered by Ring of Counterspells.
   
  
  
  After his spell fails, he continues whacking you with his flail.
  
   Attack   (1d20+25)[ 26 ]  touch attack
  Damage  (8d8+25)[ 63 ] 
   Attack   (1d20+25)[ 36 ]  touch attack
  Damage  (8d8+25)[ 64 ] 
   Attack   (1d20+20)[ 28 ]  touch attack
  Damage  (8d8+25)[ 70 ] 
   Attack   (1d20+15)[ 20 ]  touch attack
  Damage  (8d8+25)[ 71 ] 
  
  End Turn.

  Quote: my first post of the actual battle (last edit: before your post following it).
  EDIT 2: Also forgot my altitude: I'm flying at 40 ft unless I say otherwise.
  How are you hitting 40 ft up? If you are actually hitting me, that's match. If not, though...
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Olo Demonsbane: Forgot to mention, sorry: I have wings.
  
  You're character didnt seem as unoptimized as you made him out to be.  He had a spell turning up, and had good tactics...GDM is a great spell to open with.  I just HATE getting my buffs dispelled and got a few things to defend myself against it.
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Thelas: Okay, good game.
  How do you have two spells from the ring? Is it something other than the one from the MIC I'm using, or do you just have two of it?
  And how are you getting touch attacks for [toomany]d[morethan6]+[alot]?
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Claudius Maximus: Olo: how did you cast two spells per round, every round?
conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Olo Demonsbane: I have 2 rings 😁  I am considering using Spell Immunity for Dispel Magic.
  
  As for my attack...I have Persisted Wraithstrike to give me touch attacks, Greater Mighty Wallop to increase the effective size category of my weapon, Large size due to Persisted Righteous Might, 30 Strength, Ferocity of Sanguine Rage for extra damage, GMW to give myself a +4 weapon...etc, etc.
  
  Tl;dr: Buffs.
  
  EDIT: Claudius: The secret of my build:
