Revision as of 04:21, 2 November 2007 by Baatarsaikhan (talk | contribs)
This is a verbatim of a very, very old version of my game SpellMaster. I wonder what purpose it serves here? --Tom 13:33, 1 November 2007 (CET)
- I think the Academy of Knowledge wants to preserve all knowledge of the world, however old. This is a record of the ancient world, and provides a little glimpse (both IC and OOC) into how things once were... --Anaris 13:53, 1 November 2007 (CET)
- You're right Tom, it is. Back in 2004 I looked up Spellmaster and found some info, copied it down, and have been toying with it in RP ever since. As far as Danaris's comment, he's right. All knowledge is preserved if we can find it, even if it's old. Not that all knowledge is readily available of course, but many will find their way in here over time. --Dalakar 14:59, 1 November 2007 (CET)
- I think it's somewhat cute. In the manner that we these days look into old texts and read about 'aether' and 'unicorns' and the like. And we shake our heads and say "Ah, we were so ignorant back then. Aether was a subconscious rejection of vacuum and a unicorn was a rhinoceros. And we know so much more now! Like how quantum mechanics explains everything!"

- (Cue a thousand years from now: "Ah, we were so ignorant back then. Believing in such things as consciousness and quantum mechanics...") - Baatarsaikhan 03:21, 2 November 2007 (CET)
