question the obvious - round earth or not?
Muratus del Mur replied to Muratus del Mur's topic in Offtopic
@mrf : works just the same on a flat world. On a spherical world you would fly/drive in a circle around the surface, in a flat one it will be also on a circle...very very large one, so it looks like a straight line. In fact such a path would appear like a circle on the azimuthal equidistant projection used in navigation -
disclaimer: before going wild and into denial mode, keep in mind that all i am asking is for proof that the earth is round, not that it is flat .. if it is ..why not know how you know it is, right? When i was little i had this "mad scientist" old inventor living in the same building, that told me once, that the earth is FLAT..and he was very convinced and convincing about it.... but i was a little kid and over the years i ignored it and forgot it. Today i wanted to find a single proof that the earth is round... sometimes i like to question "the obvious" and know such "basic" things. ...but guess what... instead of finding some solid proof that the earth is a globe, i found lots and lots of info about how it is not.. ok...i kept digging... to find an actual proof that the earth is "round" ..because most "documentaries" about a flat earth that i stumbled upon where mixed with incomplete ideas and made by visibly disturbed individuals....so i wanted to find my own proof... there is a LOT to say about the subject, much more than i expected to be .. first i want to say that there is NO ACTUAL IMAGE OF THE EARTH FROM SPACE. All images present editing and even nasa admits its like that because they generated the image from multiple satelites...you can see no stars around the earth in such images btw. Someone please give me a solid undeniable evidence that the earth is round. ...and no ...a "science" book does not represent valid evidence. ---------- some notes: - the rising of the sun and moon can be _perfectly_ explained on a flat surface - old maps..actually not that old... are showing the earth as flat with the north in the center, the UN logo and military earth maps are still the same - over 20 generations people used the globe earth model based on theory and absolutely no evidence - then nasa presented the famous picture of the earth from space, that turns out to be computer generated afterall, and all pictures since then - commercial routes between very close points in the southern 'hemisphere' look to be incredible long on a globe model, but a direct route on the flat map they use for navigating. - acurved horizon line is curved because of optical properties of the observer, like your eyes, or photo lens. You can see a different curvature depending on the camera for example only thing i found so far as evidence for a round earth is this: - at long distance, you can notice tall objects partially obscured by the horizon (idk if this effect can be explained over a wide flat surface too) So.... hit me... i want solid observable or verifiable evidence that the earth is round :) sorry but a picture from space i can not verify myself... but i would consider it a decent evidence if such a picture would be produced by a civilian good luck digging!

This auction ends first, current highest bidder Ivorak 23g last call (if someone else bids higher the auction will be extended to allow all to see it)
-
just to clarify what i said, the tickets will continue to be given out on a regular basis (in fact somethign related to this will be announced shortly)...i was just saying that i will not give spender tickets in this period, not that i won't give them at all. Just needed to clarify this.
-
kind of difficult to make an offer...i have no clue what you are expecting for them.. (why not a public auction?) i'm interested if they are well aged...how much you want for them?
-
I think it was well organized ...i had absolutely no involvement with any organizing so i can freely say my opinion about this :) the christmas points ideea is really an amazing one, really well fitted, GREAT :)
-
if i understand right, the winner must get the exact numbers, right? so it might be that nobody wins , or many win, but there are just limited rewards. I was not refering to same person winning same thing, i mean if someone gets the numbers right, they should still win something... or at least thats how i see it I don;t want to flood the market with rare crits, just to sponsor a reward that is very unlikely to happen anyway
-
i thought about it, but i think because it has limited use its fine.... plus having a mod item doesn't make you a mod in any way, in fact it can be used wisely or get in in a lot of trouble, eventually its up to you. Now that i think of it maybe that many uses is too much? I don't know... I asked chew to review my auctioned items too, if he has nothing against it , and a good reason for 'why not' , i don't intend to change this auction. I think its a fun, risky, type of experiment. ps. i BET i will be absolutely abused with this item once released :))
-
(last one in this 'series') an other functional tool, oh wait, not one, but three! again, sold only as a pack, however don't get overexcited yet, for this one i am accepting only Top spender tickets. I have no idea what the equivalent in gold is for a ticket, or if anyone sells them, but if not, this auction is a good start. Mouth Sewing Kit (mod tool, 58 uses left) Independent Woodcutter's Axe (harvest branches, independed tool, Loreroot origin) - note to self, check settings Water Bucket (independed tool) - note to self, check settings Independent tools don't vanish from your inventory on shared item reset, they remain yours, and are your property to trade and do whatever. Settings might slightly differ from the shared item version Auction ends ..one day,...some day, but not to far, when it becomes inactive for a couple of days. I will wait enough so you can trade the tickets, make their coin equivalent and so on. You can also bid without having the tickets yet, but specify in how many days you will have them, assuming you know when you will trade for them Note: i am not releasing new spender tickets in this period (idk what chew does, or if its automated already), so the shop is not a solution to get tickets right now, you will have to trade because the weird currency i am asking does not have a clear coin equivalent as far as i am aware of, i reserve the right to close the auction without a winner if i consider the offer to low. Enjoy, good luck bidding!

an other set of items, again i need _only_ gold, coins or notes the auction is for the entire package, not considering any offer for individual items of this package Decorated skull Angien cufflinks Marble Chessboard Mosaic Skull Blurry Shard of Glass Jar of fly wings Green stone all are common items (i don't remember if some are from the extinct set or not), sold as they are. auction will end when it becomes inactive for too long, or sooner if i have the time or need the gold faster.
-
Here is a nice package of themed items, the auction is again only for gold coins/notes, and is for the entire package only, not for idividual items in the pack Muratus's Bottled emotions Muratus's engraved ring Muratus's autograph Drop of blood (might be mine's might be not, depends who gets it and for how much the auction will be) Acousticremains stone (1 use) Toxic Concoctions Book (usable cauldron instructions set, however to be considered non functional. i never got to set it up properly, but still a nice rp item, Necrovion origin) Never forget bracelet no fixed deadline for the auction, will end when it gets inactive
-
apparently i ran out of gold, so i will put up some auctions till i 'refill' my quest sponsoring budget  auction item: Imperial Arcane Card Deck (functional item)  accepting only gold coins or notes  auction deadline: undefined, i will pop up one day and pick the highest bid, might be in a day or two or in a month, idk, probably sooner  p.s. don't overbid just because its "my item", has nothing out of ordinary to it except what it already does. checkout the other 3 auctions too
-
if needed or you want, i can sponsor the main rewards (supplement them as needed with the same type of reward) in case it happens someone wins the big prize twice
-
can't wait to see the results of this :D :D

There is a series of short documentaries that describe complicated physics concepts in easy to follow way. It is probably not that easy to follow, you actually have to watch it several times to understand it, but much much easier than reading thousands of pages or listening to hours of boring lessons. This is like a crash course to this stuff, in 10minutes you learn a million things, your mind will explode. MOST important is to actually watch the other movies in the series he is referring to... i just give you one to start from, but you can search the others and watch them in chronological order if you are interested in the subject: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YycAzdtUIko&feature=iv&src_vid=D3GVVkPb3OI&annotation_id=annotation_684721481 Now...WHY do i post such a thing HERE in this topic... well.. this is the best presentation of such a thing from a geometrical point of view, and geometry means in a more mystical sense rules that govern also symbols. This is long and too deep discussion.. not the point now. Knowledge of this sort helps build a foundation of a certain sort, a foundation that can be reached in many ways, but its so far for most. In sotis i aimed towards that, but on a different route, much more subjective and role focused ofc. Just watch the movie and remember to see the related movies, even if they seem easy and obvious, actually understanding the simple and obvious things will make a huge difference when complicated stuff comes. I am so glad i found them, finally a scientific way of explaining "we just are"...and "nothing exists" ... its also first time in my life i actually understand why there is a limited speed of light, lol (different episode). You will notice he is not deviating from the scientific view, even if some conclusions are quite obvious and reach the more subjective mystical views he is not discussing them ... this is very good. Have fun

Happy B-day Chewett!

Happy Birthday allmighty Wookie!! :) -
update: server will be down for an other hour (complete shutdown)
-
New server hardware should be amazing really, nameserver propagation will probably last for a few more hours but theoretically all should be fine now. The speed improvements will be however visible in a day or two due to the query cache loading based on what you do most. thank you all that messaged me, i could sleep in bed not in front of the computer due to this :)) And thank you chew, today i learnt a lot from you :D:D check email and thank you for the ultra fast response as usual. PS we do not have a server admin, we have a code guardian! beware! bmmo is also up but not visible everywhere yet due to dns. ..what else...ah yes 12Ghz(!!) cpu power, 12Gb of ram ultra fast SSD storage crazy yea, totally not needed but come on, its fun to have that no? :D On a fast check google sais page speed score of 90/100 ...i thought its a joke but its real, not sure how many sites have that :))))) google itself has 95/100 :)) again, i was unable to check md because here is not loading yet but for some of you should be already fine....if you see errors , shout, sms me, etc. Enjoy :)
