Why not just have them start existing, or be created by a god, or something?

And why did you feel the need to give is a quasi-scientific-sounding explanation?

*shrug* I didn't make that part of the palette.

Probably for the same reason why you gave a scientific explanation against it.

In the IC everyone gets to post an scene, event or period. The Lens of eacht turn has to post two times (one at the start, another at the end) and one of them can be a Period with an Event inside it or an Event with a Scene inside it.

And remember, you can only post Events inside an existint Period and Scenes inside an Event.

I onlt gave a scientific explanation against it because it used a quasi-scientific explanation in the first place!

Guys, enough. One of the things about this game is that as long as it doesn't go against the Palette or something said before it, EVERYTHING is valid. So please, less discussing, more posting.

EDIT: I don't want to sound bossy or anything with this, but the sooner these kind of arguments are over (especially considering only one person is not ok with that part of the Palette) the better.

Can you put a link to the IC in the first post please? So people on the waitlist can find it without PTWing it.

[Rhyme]

Link on the first post now. Also, I believe the best is that we go with "no turn order" this is: The Lens posts the Focus and his scene/event/period, then everyone starts posting theirs and after a week or when everyone has posted (whatever is first), the lens posts again and then the previous lens (Gamerlord for the first turn, as he was the last one to join) posts the Legacy with its event/scene. Then the new Lens posts the new Focus and so on.

I think I'll wait a bit, let some others have a crack at worldbuilding before adding my $0.02.

[MrVoid]

Created change... I guess?  Not sure if I should add more to it, or if that is acceptable.

Sorry if you didn't like it GWG, but it's hardly a pseudo-scientific answer. It's not scientific at all. And FYI, the reate is more like 1 year = 1.5 million years. Anyway, reading the IC now.

How is this:

6) ...greatly speed up evolution...

not quasi-scientific? Which is, incidentally, what I actually said.

Science is, well, science.
Pseudoscience is poorly-done science, typically leaving out proper confirmation, thorough checking for other explanations, and similar.
Quasi-science is...well, I made it up more or less, but I'm basically using it to mean using sciency terms to try and make your magic disobey the laws of reality a little less.

PTW.

[Sheb]

Well, call it quasi scientific if you like then.

[Cheesecake]

PTW. Is there a waitlist by any chance?

[GreatWyrmGold]

Yes. It's for players who choose to drop out.
