Current Need info, so might as well throw a bottled question into the ocean of statuses... What are some features/ideas/etc. that YOU want to see in a monster taming/raising game? All genuine ideas welcome.

@Dane, I need you to talk to a physicist and a psychiatrist, in that order, twice.

"The worst thing you can do to a character is to make them aware that they're fictional." Ironically, the character who would say this is from an RP I'm not in anymore... Funny, that.

Just like in JJK, explaining the joke makes it funnier. Luckily that's built into this one.

Jimbo that's not right. Humans are a social creature, there's not a single one who can truly survive on their own. Even those who seem to be able can only do so because they learned from others.

I think I'll just go ahead and make a Master then too, instead of trying to find someone to only make a Master, that way I don't mess anything up logistics-wise. Do I just post the sheets here when they're done or PM them, and what's the most needed Servant Class right now?
I'd be interested, but I do have a question. Would it be possible to play a Servant but not play a Master? Not as in a Servant without a Master, I'm just not very good at RPing a Master in my experience. :L
I could probably write up a CS for any class that's still needed, so whatever's still open.
And there goes the discussion.

I find that nothing else ends a discussion faster.

Random states of Code cannot violate logical principles in any case (though Code isn't the purpose of this discussion, since it's not about MR) because that would be able to allow a condition to arise where you're asserting something that doesn't make sense to be true. It's fine to say "this universe could not exist unless these 99.99999999999999999999% odds line up, but because of Code they do" but it's not fine to say "because of Code, we can have a statement that is true that is also false" because that kind of a statement cannot even be properly parsed. It's as intelligible as saying "the sky ate the color of four ocean grandmothers increasing halves." There's no universe where that condition can be true because the condition doesn't make sense.

I think what you're getting at here is a universe with a different set of axioms, which is absolutely fine. Any system can "exist" as long as it's self-consistent.


Can I have a piece of your hair?
<Snipped quote by The World>

If you remove the foundation of logic, all claims become meaningless. I can claim that whatever you propose is false for the sake of it and there isn't anything that can falsify that. Logic is the only way to reach a conclusion, and you can't reach the conclusion that an illogical world can exist without the use of a logic-bound reasoning system, which forbids the former's existence.
There is no order without logic. Every idea becomes an isolated entity floating in the sea of nothingness, a place where I can just as easily destroy the notion of any other universe with the simple declaration that they don't exist, easily as you can create them.

<Snipped quote by ZAVAZggg>

It is fun to think about. I think that when discussing logic, the conversational idea of what is "logical" (what makes sense to us given the facts we know) gets conflated with the definitional view of what is "logical" (what we can derive given a set of premises and axioms).


Except I've got a logical foundation with Code for anything. A universe full of random states of Code still functions. Again, just because it exists doesn't mean it's worthwhile. If Tier Five went around destroying universes that don't make sense then that's fine and good but they aren't doing that anymore. It's highly unlikely that life would arise in a logically uncentered universe unless done by a deity, so...

There's also so many things we can't even think of that would make something logical that we wouldn't consider logical. I had another point but I forgot it. :/
<Snipped quote by The World>

That doesn't make sense though. Our entire perception of reality relies on the fact that we accept logical derivations to be true. If we suddenly decide that they don't have to be, in this universe or in any other, we lose any ability to make sense of our own universe. As far as the world is concerned, if a conclusion isn't logical, it's false.

And while you could claim otherwise, if you remove logic's ability to determine definite truth, it's impossible to prove whether or not your own claim is true. It's unfalsifiable, which is a fallacy (which I suppose also wouldn't matter if logic is stripped of its power?).


"It's unfalsifiable, which is a fallacy (which I suppose also wouldn't matter if logic is stripped of its power?)."

Now you're getting it~

We're dealing with other universes, it's ALL unfalsifiable. Logic is just how our brains are wired to manage shit, and our brains are fucked. Just look at how our eyes work, our brains are bullshit.

For example, there's no way anyone is going to go to a universe exactly like ours except where gravity works in reverse, but that doesn't mean it can't exist in Existence.

<Snipped quote by The World>

Nothing can create an internal logical contradiction. No system imaginable can make 2+2=5 and leave every other axiom alone.


"Imaginable." They absolutely can, we just can't properly portray it.
<Snipped quote by ZAVAZggg>

I'd disagree with Dark on that front, since it would only be possible to include universes with legitimately possible physics systems. Those with logical contradictions wouldn't be able to exist.


They can still exist even though they're not logical. The whole point of Code is that literally anything is possible somewhere.
