[quote=@Raindeer] +1 #nevergiveupneversurrender [/quote] GalaxyQuest, you say? [@Double Capybara] Interesting race details. As Mihndar said, you may post now. [quote=@Mihndar] See, the thing is when I don't want to make a decision I defer it to a higher authority. The only higher authority is Aweirdgamer. Which basically makes it a democracy. A democracy in which you appear to have lost, dear fellow. [/quote] It feels odd to read this, yet the logic holds. Also, even with the original Civ RP, I don't think there was a timeline followed very strictly. [quote=@Neruu] Well part of history is not knowing exact dates of certain events that are so far back to not be recorded. A time keeping system I think should be more IC than OOC. Races that engage in regular interaction such as trade adopt similar time keeping systems to better coordinate trade, something like that happening. Look forward to IC in future that could involve various races that develop historians trying to align events in timelines. [/quote] I remember there was a story about this in the original Civ RP. It began somewhere around this page: http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/list/1350/34469.page . I don't remember much of the details but parts included a mystery of the history not resolved even IC.
