Maybe its a clock. Because clocks tell time, and are circular. Degrees and radians are used to measure circles.

[GreatWyrmGold]

So me and a few other people are in the plug.dj room with PW, and... a person with the username "The_Sheep" joined for a minute, and played a video that was just a bunch of sheep... making sheep noises, whatever you call it.

But what was interesting is that they also posted in the comments- a long paragraph, something about people eating flesh, and the crying voices of dead gods.  Nobody thought to screenshot or copy paste it though.  Whoops.

Damn it you morons, didn't you think that that MIGHT be important, especially given the reappearance of the sheep in-game?!?
Sorry. But can you see why I'm frustrated?

I don't really think those are coordinates. Two numbers are insufficient to define a point in 3D space.

Actually, you only need one number to define a point (theoretically). That doesn't prove anything. Besides, it could be a surface coordinate (e.g, 17.3 degrees counterclockwise from east, 18 standard distance units away from a given point).

It could also be time when something happens, using a given reference body and a certain start point. 17 radians and 17.3 degrees totals to around two and three quarters of a full circle, which, with the orbit rate of, say, the Sun, would give us, oh... seven hundred million years, give or take.

Probably not.

Eighteen radians, not seventeen. And since both measure angles...why not just use one or the other?

It was up for all of 30 seconds. Deal with it.

Seventeen point three on the eighteenth radian. Not eighteen radians and seventeen degrees.
Also, for the same reason we use hours instead of seconds to tell time of day. Every radian is... 57 point something degrees IIRC.

Fixed that link for you.

Because I'm becoming increasingly sensitive towards places reposting other people's work. Amusingly, this looks like its some sort of bizarre chain here, with this video being a repost of a repost XD

Pff hahaha. Oh lord, the second I leave the cosmic farm animals show up to foreshadow the hell out of us.

I think the elder gods don't like my music taste.

Then again, looking at the shit we played for a while, that might not be surprising. 


... Say, pw, could we somehow bribe you into reposting here what that mysterious wooly mammal said?
Maybe, say, no tinker for a week? No VR for some time? A lollipop?

[syvarris]

You should think of a better bribe.  I've spent the last two missions coming up with Tinker ideas, and you are not taking the chance to act on them away now.

[piecewise]

I hope someone was reading.

Man ate of the flesh of god and thought themselves god in his stead.
Their hubris bore many great and terrible fruit.
The god of man's design and the tools of his actions, fruit of the tree of knowledge.
The malignant flesh and the pale comparison, fruit of the tree of might.

Listen, for the cries of dead gods echo through time and gain life of their own.

[Xantalos]

Sorry, I was in the middle of drowning millions of people.

[Radio Controlled]

Awesome. Thanks pw.

Now, what horrible price shall we pay in return?

[piecewise]

Awesome. Thanks pw.

I'll think of something.

[Xantalos]

Awesome. Thanks pw.

Well, Miyamoto might be a bit disadvantaged if all synthflesh in the galaxy suddenly goes rogue.

At least I won't be just a brain captured in a body.

Then again, the Avatar has it's own will, so I'll be screwed either way.

Maybe we should invest in mininukes embedded in advanced synthflesh bodies, if they aren't already.

[Xantalos]

Speaking of which, I should really find out what exactly Xan is before I go making plans as to my apotheosis.
