My computer's causing problems yet again
The computer is going away for repairs tomorrow and you will have to look after this wiki alone for some time, sorry.

Proxima Centauri 14:00, December 29, 2009 (UTC)

The computer's down yet again but I've got a small standby computer that should deal with the problem till the old junkpile valued friend is finally repaired properly or replaced. Proxima Centauri 12:13, January 6, 2010 (UTC)

Liscensing
Thanks for the warning, I already deleted the image from my text  The Valader,   Talk/  /Contributions  21:23, December 29, 2009 (UTC)

Yep, you can  The Valader,  Talk/  /Contributions  22:00, December 29, 2009 (UTC)

I couldn't read your message
I'm on a public computer that runs Net Nannie and Nannie doesn't like your message, it's quite frustrating. The IT Centre where they don't run Net Nannie is closed till after the new year. I can access Talk:The Start of Eternity/0 where you can tell me anything important, please avoid anything  that Nannie will call, "Chat room". Proxima Centauri 15:51, December 30, 2009 (UTC)

Does that mean that you cannot read your own talk page from the computer you are using? Assuming that is the case, I'll post my comment from yesterday to Talk:The Start of Eternity/0. --JWSchmidt 15:58, December 30, 2009 (UTC)

Wonderful news! They’ve featured The Aliens of the Flaming Red Sun, thanks for helping. Proxima Centauri 19:40, January 2, 2010 (UTC)

The Start of Eternity
Do you like my adaptations to The The Start of Eternity? Proxima Centauri 14:00, December 29, 2009 (UTC)

A robot with post traumatic stress disorder
I’ve finally bought a small back up computer so I’m not offline every time I get computer problems. No, I didn’t read the meta and didn’t have time for that when I was limited to public computers but I worked out an idea about the robot that is developed out of Gohrlay’s brain and I hope it can be fitted in. Gohrlay the robot is very much like Gohrlay the human but human Gohrlay is dead. Robot Gohrlay owes an unpayable debt to human Gohrlay who died to give her life and as they are both atheists robot Gohrlay doesn’t hope there is any reward in store for human Gohrlay in any afterlife. So the debt can only be repaid if robot Gohrlay carries on with human Gohrlay’s work the way human Gohrlay wanted. Robot Gohrlay wants to do this but has human survival instincts as she was developed from a human brain, she fears death like a human. Robot Gohrlay has all the memories of human Gohrlay and remembers the terror near the end that I added today. She understands that if she if she’s caught doing human Gohrlay’s work she’ll be reprogrammed as a dangerous robot or deactivated. She knows what execution is like and knows there’ll be no nanites to ease her through it. How can she face death a second time? How can she fail human Gohrlay who endured so much to give her life? Proxima Centauri 20:27, January 2, 2010 (UTC)

R Gohrlay gets herself a boyfriend shortly after she has a complete body and can ..... The scientists even gave her a maidenhead as they weren’t sure if she was a virgin, she was clearly more interested in displaying herself than in forming attachments while Doltun’s death ceremony and cremation destroyed any evidence. The man’s called Spleve. When I started I wanted to call him Steve but if it’s set in the past Spleve is a good name. I hope I can fit that in somewhere after section 15 but it will take me time to read up to there. Spleve helps R Gohrlay handle bad memories and flashbacks from what she remembers of Human Gohrlay’s past. Spleve also helps remove that (troublesome?) maidenhead. Where can it fit? Proxima Centauri 20:55, January 3, 2010 (UTC)

This page may inspire you to represent Neandertal people in art. This one's good too. Proxima Centauri 18:27, January 4, 2010 (UTC)

New page
I'vv created a new page, The Start of Eternity/0 – Vortex as The Start of Eternity/0 was too long for old brousers. If you don't like the title please feel free to change it. Proxima Centauri 17:15, January 11, 2010 (UTC)

Finish
I've finished most of The Start of Eternity/0 and can't think of much more to add for the moment. Do you feel like looking at the story and seeing if you can improve it? The story is roughly the way I planned it and if you alter it you won't interfere with anything I'm planning to write. 18:35, January 14, 2010 (UTC)

An Atheist facing death
I hope you're pleased with this emotional adaptation which should show readers that the story is powerful right from the start, sometimes I feel comapassion for poor little Gohrlay dying in the scanner as if she were real. I've also tried to show how an atheist can face death as too many Christians, especially Christian fundamentalists try and say that for an atheist dying must be terrible. How far have I succeeded? It's difficult because, Can you suggest improvements? Proxima Centauri 19:11, January 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) if I try to show the dying atheist completely fearless that's unrealistic as almost all human beings, believers and others find violent death a terrifying experience. We know this from people who expected to die and survived.
 * 2) if I try to show the dying atheist frightened then Christians can say that atheists can't face death.

Did you know that I'm a woman? Did you create the character of an atheist woman facing death so I could identify with her and develop the story? Proxima Centauri 18:56, January 14, 2010 (UTC)

Speculation about R Gohrlay
Is R Gohrlay the only robot or human guardian in Eternity? Wouldn’t a team of guardians with R Gohrlay leading be more efficient? Interactions between team members could add to the story. Since R Gohrlay was developed from human Gohrlay’s brain she would probably suffer loneliness as a human would and will want companions

At first R Gohrlay is very much like human Gohrlay as she was when she died because human Gohrlay’s brain was used as a template. R Gohrlay can learn, if she couldn’t that would be very inefficient but learning to overcome human Gohrlay’s weaknesses goes against her programming and is a slow laborious process. Perhaps R Gohrlay even needs new circuits to avoid human Gohrlay’s weaknesses. Eventually R Gohrlay becomes the strong character shown in the later parts of the story. How long it takes her to develop her stronger personality is flexible, it could be as short as ten to twenty years or as long as one or more human lifetimes. You decide how it takes her to become the capable leader and I’ll write the stuff where R Gohrlay is like human Gohrlay.

We’ve discussed that R Gohrlay has Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and suffers flashbacks when she feels as if she were enduring human Gohrlay’s execution. The way I imagine it these flashbacks become less frequent as R Gohrlay’s character strengthens. Eventually flashbacks are no longer a serious problem for R Gohrlay and only happen once or twice every century or so. Despite this when R Gohrlay feels helpless this can trigger a flashback so R Gohrlay needs assistants to deal with critical times when she can’t easily find an answer to something and could suffer a flashback. R Gohrlay’s very last flashback could be if she voluntarily gives up consciousness or know her consciousness is ending for any reason. I’m not sure if she that will happen but if she does she will suffer a flashback and won’t be sure if she is R Gohrlay in whatever situation she loses consciousness or if she is human Gohrlay dying in the scanner, she will know she is losing consciousness for the last time. Like human Gohrlay R Gohrlay will become peaceful at the end, that would round off the story nicely. Proxima Centauri 15:59, January 16, 2010 (UTC)

Skydisk
I started Skydisk Cult but didn’t write too much as I guess you have your own ideas. Proxima Centauri 12:10, January 6, 2010 (UTC)

Can you give some idea how you were planning to develop the Skydisk Cult so I don't write anything that goes against your plans? Proxima Centauri 19:03, January 14, 2010 (UTC)

Doltun
It’s time that I go back to The Aliens of the Flaming Red Sun and Scientoligeist - The Curse of Xenu. I don’t much care one way or the other whether Doltun lives or dies so perhaps I should take a break from The Start of Eternity while you decide. Proxima Centauri 18:29, January 17, 2010 (UTC)

I've decided, Doltun is suffering a terrifying Near Death Experience and will live to tell about it. Is that OK with you? Proxima Centauri 19:21, January 23, 2010 (UTC)

Spleve
You wrote, ''“I think it would be more realist (and interesting) to slow things down. Having a period of time during which R. Gohrlay develops a relationship with Spleve would be a good way of doing that.”'' Have you any idea where to fit Spleve in? Proxima Centauri 19:34, January 20, 2010 (UTC)

Problems with organization
Hi

Could you please help me with organization of chapters and other content for my novel, or should I wait for doing more chapters?  The Valader,  Talk/  /Contributions  01:22, January 12, 2010 (UTC)

Ok, I decided to take your advice, thank you sir  The Valader,  Talk/  /Contributions  16:09, January 12, 2010 (UTC)

Question
I want to vote for Star of Eternity as featured fiction, but I don't know if it must be completed before I could vote for it its because its a very very good science fiction novel, but I did not see it in nominees of any month or year, could be nominee or?  The Valader,  Talk/  /Contributions  18:10, January 14, 2010 (UTC)

Ok, if you need help in something let me know  The Valader,  Talk/  /Contributions  04:05, January 15, 2010 (UTC)

hmmm
almost 4 years on... do you suppose that a collaborative learning/research environment utilizing wiki-technology is a failed idea? Emesee

Thanks
I am working on a computer with a large leverage of power, some computer with the following:

1. A personality.

2. Great Powers, including
 * Telepathy
 * Time Control
 * Powers to Possess a Body
 * Large amounts of Information
 * Ablity to create Programs and Viruses

3. I also want it maybe thousands of years old.

--Catherine 20:01, January 18, 2010 (UTC)

Also, what in that story you told me of? Does it have anything about a computer becoming filled with life? --Catherine 20:27, January 18, 2010 (UTC)

I looked on it. Your story has time travel. Umm. I saw about R. Gohlray, a robot with telepathic ablities. She is intresting. I want my computer to be interactive as well. Have you heard of the television series Cyberchase? There is a computer on it named Motherboard. Go to this video to see this computer. I know it is a childrens series, but I want a computer modeled on Motherboard, a interactive computer but powerful one. --Catherine 23:21, January 18, 2010 (UTC)

It takes place in the real world. But my computer is to bear a similar resemblance to the "Motherboard" person, but without a computer virus and with a high degree of powers and skills. --Catherine 00:13, January 19, 2010 (UTC)

Outline
Can you write something about the powers my computer can have? I would love ideas. --Catherine 14:27, January 19, 2010 (UTC)

What I mean about Time Control is the ablity to alter and govern time and space, to change historical events, and to rewarp Einstein's theory of relativity (or change it through action). --Catherine 15:37, January 20, 2010 (UTC)

Redosian Empire
A user would like me to comment on Redosian Empire but I'm very busy researching the Near Death Experience and writing it up. Do you have time? Proxima Centauri 19:17, January 23, 2010 (UTC)

Response for JWSchmidt
This is a sort of alternate history, in which the European Union and non-member states within Europe merged to become one, since they wanted one identity. JW, check out that game I linked on that story, play it on the map number and nation I did, read gameplay instructions, and then, there you go. --Catherine 23:58, January 23, 2010 (UTC)


 * No I am asking you to play the game as Redosia, on the map number I gave you. Also when playing expand throughout the island you start on, send ships to land at Gutemala City and Bejing, and sign a non-agression pact with Violetnam. Make sure you stay calm and organize your defenses. Reach the coast on the other side and then take over Bluegaria. --Catherine 01:22, January 24, 2010 (UTC)

Why?
You are not interested! Not interested! Shame. I wanted you to play the game, because you expressed interest in my work. But now I see. Come'on, play it one time, just one time! --Catherine 02:10, January 24, 2010 (UTC)


 * For one time, please play THIS game. I am only asking you of one thing. --Catherine 03:51, January 24, 2010 (UTC)


 * Have you even responded to my previous question? I would love a answer. --Catherine 22:09, January 24, 2010 (UTC)

related readings and video...
umm.. thanks. : ) Emesee

seperate question
Can you like develop more ideas for me on my Redosian Empire? If not, then. --Catherine 00:35, January 26, 2010 (UTC)


 * Please put your thoughts, and a throughly detailed crtique of the content I have on Redosian Empire so far. --Catherine 00:37, January 26, 2010 (UTC)

Quote:


 * But, a common thing in the Wikipedia health care world is the "badmouthing" of what are called Alternative Medicine health care paradigms, professionals and activists. Another word for "badmouthing" is defamation, and defamation is actionable in the Courts.  Specifically, in  the case of a health professional, refer to the "defamation per se" Wikipedia definition which reads: (Note the red highlighted words).


 * ''"The four (4) categories of slander that are actionable per se are (I) accusing someone of a crime; (ii) alleging that someone has a foul or loathsome disease; (iii) adversely reflecting on a person’s fitness to conduct their business or trade; and (iv) imputing serious sexual misconduct. Here again, the plaintiff need only prove that someone had published the statement to any third party. No proof of special damages is required."

have a nice day. Emesee :)

Start of Eternity name
I was thinking, at the end of Isaac Asimov's novel: "the end of eternity", the last paragraphs shows a remarkable point:

"This is is it, this was the end of Eternity, and the start of the infinite"

Just an opinion, since the sequel doesn't have an official name, could the title "The Start of the Infinite"  be a choice ?

what do you think?  The Valader,  Talk/  /Contributions  05:32, January 31, 2010 (UTC)

Sorry to cause you problems over The Start of Eternity, I’ve been grieving over the story where I worked so hard. I can’t keep it if there’s a risk it could contribute to somebody’s death as the Samaritans suggest. See Why do people take their own lives? which suggests that glamorising suicide can do serious harm. Proxima Centauri 17:24, February 4, 2010 (UTC)

Will you please go to the discussion page of It's a Girl-Empress Alexandrina. Read the story first and then comment on what I got so far.--Brenda Young 22:18, February 5, 2010 (UTC)

Feedback
I know you have much work to do, but fit in time to feedback on Smithlandian Empire when I have the first segments completed. --Catherine 01:56, February 12, 2010 (UTC)

Hey...
Hey, I was wondering if we could get some infoboxes up about games. Like say the game infobox, like information about it's name, platforms, realease dates, etc. And maybe some level infoboxes about the individual levels of the game. Maybe some character infoboxes as well. Would really be awesome. Thanks. --Kluutak 04:53, February 12, 2010 (UTC)

Can you make some please? --Kluutak 05:10, February 12, 2010 (UTC)


 * Game Infobox
 * Level Infobox
 * Character Infobox

Well this is the closest thing I could find to a original idea wikia. I can't find any wikia about Game Fanon. =( --Kluutak 05:15, February 12, 2010 (UTC)

No. -_- That is not what I'm looking for. I'm looking for a wikia about writing original ideas, not fanon about pre-existing games. This is all I could find. If you don't want to make the template infoboxes, you can tell me how to and I can. --Kluutak 05:23, February 12, 2010 (UTC)

Yes. Similar. Probably one with more info. Can it be edited? Like if I were to post it on my character page would I be able to edit it and put more fields in? Also do you have any for games, or game missions? Because I didn't see any. --Kluutak 05:40, February 12, 2010 (UTC)

PS: is there a way to align it on the right side of the page?
