I remember hearing about it once or twice. Isn't that based on these StormTroopers missing the Rebs in the Star Wars films, due to graphic effects?

That, or to 'clone madness' from (IIRC) the Thrawn books, which caused clones grown too fast to become unbalanced.

Thanks, GeneralTactius.

Lonestar, which version were you talking about? The Thrawn clone madness, or the Stormtrooper 99% miss rate on Rebs in the films?

[Sovereign]

By the way, I forgot to mention that....

Franky, in case you forgot, the code name "Lavender King" is about the personal meeting that we discussed about last year.

The missrate.

i am curious, does anyone want me to edit any of my old posts in the Datalinks thread and possibly in other info threads...?

Mellian's back, out of the blue!

Franky and HistoryGuy posted a BAC story post each, within the past two weeks.

Me posting about 3 or 4 story posts within the space of a month.....

What is the world coming to?

[Mr. President]

How did you know that Mysidia is my favorite Final Fantasy city?

Hi Mellian, long time no see! What exactly did you have in mind regarding the Datalinks posts?

[Sovereign]

Heh. I have ESP, Prez. Fear my Q-like powers!

J/K

I have ALWAYS wondered if all the Final Fantasys were linked or connected. I came up with several theories, but they didn't pan out.... so I decided to resolve it once and for all....

Have a Goa'uld from Stargate transplant humans on the FF2 world, then have them spread to the other FF worlds thru Stargates... and the Bahamut dude is in EVERY FF game... so I said, why not have the Goa'uld named Bahamut...

I DIDN'T WANT ANYONE TO KNOW WHERE THE HIVE HOMEWORLD IS YET!!!!!

WTF am I supposed to do now?

[GeneralTacticus]

Ask Lonestar to remove the offending post?

[Mr. President]

I generally think that our story needs a little spontaneity from time to time. That's okay.

However, what we're talking about here is a major plot issue. This is the kind of thing that needs to be discussed with the writer in question. I can understand why Franky isn't happy.

Perhaps . . . we need some sort of middle ground. What if the spy records the information on a disk or some such and casts it adrift in a pod?

That way, the location of Hive Prime remains secret now, and we have the possibility to reveal its location in a future plot?

[Frankychan]

Yes, thanks for seeing my side. Sorry if I sound kinda pissed, but I discussed this with Sprayber a long time ago...

And for now, I would like to keep it that way. I'm willing to make a lot of concessions, but that won't be one of them until later on, when things start to go bad.

[Sovereign]

Franky, here's an idea...

If Lonestar doesn't change anything...

You could have the spy believe that he was actually on the real Hive Homeworld, when in fact, it's a dummy one. A fake, if you will.

The REAL Homeworld remainds hidden.

Just a suggestion, bro.

[Frankychan]

That's a pretty good idea!

I'm not mad, I just wanted to get everyone's attention...so if anyone thinks so, my bad.

I'm willing to work this out (cause we've done this numerous time before) so whatever Lonestar wants to do, I'm up for it.....but I don't want it's location revealed until we're near the climax to the Hive plotline.
