D&D 3e/3.5e/d20The forum for conversations specifically related to the rules and procedures of Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition, 3.5 Edition, or any fantasy game using the d20 system or a variant thereof (commercially published or not).
You're right about the mailman - it was intended for play. I've switched it.
The UPS Man and Magic Jar trick don't have builds yet(even though the UPS Man is a good guide, and the Magic Jar trick is really cool), so I can't add them atm.
The Psionic Sandwich is hilarious. I've added it with the two uberchargers.

Eh, the UPS Man build looks almost identical to the Mailman build, since they use so many of the same tricks. Just switch Empower and Maximize with Fell Frighten and Fell Drain, and replace Enlarge Spell with Searing Spell. Replace Ocular Spell with Blistering Spell.
Include the spells indicated in the OP. Done.
It was more of a variant than an actual independent build, using Greater Arcane Fusion to squeeze out a bunch of 1st level spells that automatically dealt 1-2 damage (depending on supposed immunities) and a negative level. Basically, enervation spam. Oh, and it was also spamming fear effects from Fell Frighten, which stack, and it would quickly make an opponent Cowering, so even if he didn't go down, he will the following round.
Team Solar was an actual game that got played so I don't think you can call that TO.
But that "actual game" was The Grinder ... which might have been explicitly advertised as a campaign for using TO in. I don't know for sure; I wasn't following it at the time.

Likewise, while the Cube was actually played, it was played in the Test of Spite, which I think was designed to test PO to the breaking point. The fact that the Cube was undefeated is probably a good sign it broke into TO territory.
Unrelated note: Should we add a section for "Missing In Action" builds for:
Neo-Terminator
Ghola Character
Outcharging the UberERCharger
Also, Tainted Scholar should probably be mentioned, as it is a famous way of easily breaking the game into teeny-tiny pieces.
Tainted scholar (and its previous iterations; tainted sorcerer and maho tsukai) isn't a build, it's just an extremely unbalanced PrC.
