[OOC] Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>

Except that's bogus, considering most experiences are extremely similar, and there are only a handful of truly unique paths of circumstance.

Most experiences are similar -> Most universes are copies
Only a handful of truly unique paths -> Most universes are copies

Ergo, it's easy to do something new when not much has been done.

@Etcetera

I see now. I don't agree, myself, but I see. I was reading the thing that said most experiences are similar as a parallel statement to Sjin's.

Avis replied.

@Extra

I think I see where you may be talking about. You replied to Soul instead of me, so I didn't see it. I'll respond to it so you can continue tomorrow.

Night.

@Extra

Nighters.

@Galaxy Raider

What don't you agree with?

[HaltingBlooper]

Do I make a CS here and then put it in characters or what?

<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>

@Etcetera

What Sjin said, pretty much.

@HaltingBlooper

I wasn't part of the conversation really, so I'm not sure if our CS situation has been entirely resolved yet.

[Etcetera]

@HaltingBlooper

Read the rules, and then make a character sheet in the OOC before posting in the Characters tab. Decide that it's for you.

@Galaxy Raider

I thought you didn't agree with Liz.

@Etcetera

... I don't? Sjin didn't, therefore I didn't.

"What don't you agree with?"

@Etcetera

I'm so lost right now. Let me try to back it up a but then bring it forward some.

"Ergo, it's easy to do something new when not much has been done."

I say that almost everything has been done since there are so many universes out there in general that whether most of them are copies or not doesn't matter, since there could still be enough "original" universes to say almost everything has been done.

@Galaxy Raider

Oh, I see. I said this because I meant that what Sjin said was the explanation of what I don't agree with, not that I don't agree with Sjin.

@Galaxy Raider

But for example, there aren't that many human Earths, and most of those are so different, they'd be nothing like our world, or the RP world. And if each progresses at a comparable rate, there will always be advancements.

@Etcetera

Is this just a matter of how many universes we as players imagine there are that exist? Because my headcanon is that there are so many universes that I can't even begin to fathom a fraction of how many there are, but there aren't unlimited.

@Galaxy Raider

That is mine as well, and I believe David's.

This was to Mister Strange.

@whizzball1

Woooooow.

@whizzball1

I'm not understanding why one would think almost nothing has been done unless it's a matter of perception on every other aspect of this topic, then.

@Galaxy Raider

It is mine, as well. However, for each sources, there are at least millions of paths. And because of the very, very different ways each source can turn out, the surface has only been scratched for all the possible combinations.

@Etcetera

But even if the ratio if Paths to Sources is 1000000 to 1, there are still an inexpressibly large amount of Sources. In combination with how many times Sources have reset over however long Existence has been a thing, how many times Paths get screwed with by Tier Fours, and how much can be done over the "lifespan" of a universe, I'd say just about everything short of extra-universal events have happened.

Yup.
