  1. :wp:Hello One and All! Your Local TST Broker Here!:wp:

    First off I would like to wish everyone a happy and joy filled MD Birthday. 

    Secondly I wish to welcome you all to the first ever and one of many more to come, TST auction hosted by me. 

    In the assumption that many players will come back to celebrate with us all and the new players will have the chance to experience their very first Birthday with us I've decided to run my first auction as Credit Ticket Broker. So go out and about trade, buy, sell those TST because I have a great piece for auction this time. I mean you all know me I am a collector of the finer things so this is a chance to give others the opportunity to gain something a little nice. 

    This time I will be auctioning a nice and rare...

    Well wait first lets go over the fine print and rules shall we? 

    :char_briskness:Rules::char_briskness:

    1. Bidding Will Start At 00:00 Of MD's First Birthday Date.
    2. All Bids are to be made on this topic.
    3. All Bids are to be in the form of TST Only.
    4. Payment Must Be Delivered at the End of Auction.
    5. Bidding Ends at MD's Last Birthday Date, Plus 24Hrs From Last Bid

    :lvl3:Auction Piece:lvl3:

    The Piece for Auction this Period is a Creature ID # 6 AKA a Darkling! Thats right folks you all have the chance to own your very own Darkling!

    Bones -> Headless Skeleton (Later to be combined with a skull for a full skeleton)

    YES, i love this, can be a way to assamble a skeleton and then later on use the combiner to create a skeleton creature

     

    This is what i meant in my post :P there is already CID 19 maybe finally bring it out? its skeletony

    Bushies > orange JUICE (absolutely a yes, this will make it interesting because bushies are hard to gether when anyone can steal your progress . I like the use of bushies, but maybe not orange juice, but something related to bushies otherwise. Juice is by definition something that expires and it will be to expensive to make just to expire, unless it offers a significant advantage?)

    By MD item definition Bushies  are from oranges (MD is slow so I can't look (its not loading) but i'll update the post) so unless we change the definition to go along with the new concept..

     

     

  3. Okay Mur I found a few keys points which intrigued me not to answer but elaborate in a sense your question. While you ask if the earth is flat or round I have come up with the answer that is is neither "technically neither." Rather the earth is known as an Oblate Spheroid which by definition is "A body that is shaped like a sphere but is not perfectly round, especially an ellipsoid that is generated by revolving an ellipse around one of its axes." So what I am trying to say is give you yet an alternative to what you view as the only 2 possible forms flat or round. 

     

    the following is the Cartesian equation which is used to calculate an Oblate spheroid's dimensions.

     

    For a spheroid with z-axis as the symmetry axis, the Cartesian equation is

    The ellipticity of an oblate spheroid is defined by

    NumberedEquation2.gif
    (2)

    The surface area of an oblate spheroid can be computed as a surface of revolution about the z-axis,

    with radius as a function of Inline4.gif given by

    NumberedEquation4.gif
    (4)

    Therefore

    (8)

    where the last step makes use of the logarithm identity

    (9)

    valid for Inline17.gif. Re-expressing in terms of the ellipticity then gives

    (10)

    yielding the particular simple form

    (11)

    (Beyer 1987, p. 131). Another equivalent form is given by

    NumberedEquation8.gif
    (12)

    The surface area can also be computed directly from the coefficients of the first fundamental form as

    Inline18.gifInline19.gifInline20.gif

    (13)

    Inline21.gifInline22.gifInline23.gif

    (14)

    Note that this is the conventional form in which the surface area of an oblate spheroid is written, although it is formally equivalent to the conventional form for the prolate spheroid via the identity

    (15)

    where Inline24.gif is defined by

    NumberedEquation10.gif
    (16)
     

     

    I'll have more ideas tomorrow
