Beyond Alpha Centauri:::: Discussion Thread 4

[History Guy]

Guardian-- Hope you can find some time. I'm looking forward to seeing what you will do.

Sprayber-- Is there still room for the Morganites on your page? I was hoping that you could take all the stuff I have on the datalinks and put them on your Morganite section (i.e. bios, timelines, diplomatic stuff, Cepheleens, and Black Shadow). Perhaps you or someone else could even find a good logo for MI. Something like the original one, but perhaps with three suns in the backround, representing Sol, Alpha Centauri, and now Castor. Thanks!

History: There is indeed lots of room for Morgan stuff.

As for a logo. Right off hand.


What about this?

[History Guy]

Hmmm...I like it...perhaps you could add three yellow orbs behind it to make it look like the stars. It'd look good on a black backround...doggone snappy in fact...

Sprayber,

I'd like my stuff to be put up on a website like yours.

But I'd like to know how I'll be able to update information, add new technology, new characters, changes in faction relations, etc?




And also, if my stuff goes on your website, how can I edit it? Do I have to get a program or what?

I apologize, but I'm not that proficient or well versed in creating or editing websites

Lemme know!

Well I can edit things for you or

go to this site Geocities/Yahoo

Creating your webpage is as easy as point and click. All you have to do is use the simple tool bar at the top and you have it made. Everything you see on my site was created with the toolbar.

when you get to the Geocites site just choose the Yahoo! PageBuilder and it can walk you through the steps. It helps you download stuff from your computer and gives you some preloaded templates if you choose them. Best thing is its free up to 15mb. which is plenty. The stuff you see on mine takes up 2mb. When you want to access the Geocites page just go to the Yahoo main page and click the link there. You also get a Yahoo. mail account. If you already have yahoo male then you can just use that id as your Geocities id.

History Guy: I'm setting up an account for Morgan I.

Sovereign: I'm setting up an account for University

I'll pm you both with your passwords and security questions. I will of course be happy to help answer any questions that you have and help out if until you get the hang of it. It won't take long cause it is real simple. This way you guys will have control over your pages.

Anyone else that would like me to do the same, just let me know and I would be happy.

[Sovereign]

Sprayber,

Thanks for the help bro!

I'll try working on it tonight or this week. Then you and Franky can link up my website to yours, that is, if I can get it done


By the way, I have strong evidence to back up my Quantum Technology. Storing light is feasible with today's technology. Scientists have already succeeded a month ago, and its only 2002. 700 years leaves a LONG time for improvements and refinements to that technology!

(sigh) I tried to open the website that had the article on this very thing, but its down or deleted. I'm pretty sure any hard-liners here will be able to find info about this on the internet with Lycos, Yahoo, or Google.

Besides, this is a viable technology. We can somewhat split light today with prisms and whatnot, as well as change light waves, bend light through water, glass, or other materials, relfect light with mirrors, generate light via lamps and electricty, shall I go on?

I have several more solid reasons if anyone disagrees with me about this technology.


Anyways, laters,

Academician Randius

That would be great but don't forget Kass's page

http://personal.phpoint.net/nortti/bac.htm

or the Main Site

I think the main thing is to come up with a way to somehow limit the techology so that it does't get too over powering. Remember what started the FTL wars on chiron all those years ago. We expect the University to be slightly more advanced. Just try and limit it by how much and we won't have a problem.

Linking to Apolyton

Oh and guys. For those that link to Apolyton, be sure it is linked to the main site and not the forums. MarkG and DanQ prefer that the main site be linked.

I'm, thinking of setting up a Saturnian site but that's in the future....

BTW I am very concerned that in Lonestar's post, Controlled Singularity is menitoned! How the F*CK??? What about the rules we set up ages ago (look up the explanatory LMP's post somewhere in the first threads) that said no SIgnularity but maximum Quantum? And how the hell do you reach CONTROLLED SINGULARITY before all the advanced techs???



Yes I am nit-picking but Mellian is right in saying that we are ignoring and hypocricising the earlier rules we set. Perhaps a little reminder is necessary...

Silence, I think that you could maybe consider the idea of the Believers spreading their version of Christianity to ther factions! This could cause conflicts on Saturn and other Sol colonies...

Beg your pardon. I do not intend to create a controlled singularity in the immediate future, if at all.

Point of the matter is, if you have advanced nanites, then you have a working understanding of Quantum Mechanics on a scale we (now) do not. The only way for "real" molecular-sized Nanites to exist is use through Quantum Computing(that is, accessing all 32 quantum states of a electron).

You can't say someone has the know-how to build quantum computers but not create a multiple-state event. It's ...unfathomable.

Again, I have no intention of creating Singularity-based weapons/feats of engineering.

If you still wanna get up my ass about following today's known rules of Quantum Mechanics, I'll drop the matter, and put up a post concerning Jedi Knights and/or BeneGesserit to satiate your "more fiction, less science!" bug.

[History Guy]

Errrrr...well...to tell you the truth I'd prefer not to be running the site myself. I was under the impression that you were managing the site. If it's too much trouble, don't worry about it!

Thanks anyway. I am not good at all when it comes to running website...computers aren't really my thing to be honest.

[Sprayber]

Cybergod, Lonestar. Take it easy. Let Lonestar explain what he intends before we get on his case.

Lonestar: Don't even joke about bringing Jedi into this story. Next you thing you know we will have Ewoks and the whole story will be down the toilet.


History: check these out.
