Suppose we don't start this argument again. Mad, Rand and Nameless seem to be reaching a deal, so let's let them do their thing.
That's not what it looks like to me. MM is protesting that Rand's comic just delays the end of FFF, so we should discard it, Rand is proposing lengthy solutions to the problem his comic caused, and Nameless had forgotten that he had been Put on a Bus for the final battle.


That's God-modding. :smallannoyed:
Doesn't count.

You acknowledged it as canon at the time. But then MM had Rand in his latest comic...

How about we just go by “I hit Threeshades and pissed her off” which was my original intent.

Just do as me and find a weird excuse (though I was the one drawing the comic with Keveak getting eated) or say it fizzled (and reality shifted your lunch or something):smallsmile:

EDIT: It's technically not godmodding since he didn't draw it effectig you only hitting you (so you could dodge it or something)

I didn't even know what was happening at the time, I was just focusing on how awesome MM Drew Nameless. :smalltongue:

Anyway it’s still god-modding.
Or in the next comic we can have someone ask Nameless

"I thought Threeshades Plain-Shifted You"
"I Came back while you were all distracted with the fight"

or something like that.

Which would mean it's not part of ABR continuity and so is non-canon. Righto.

Nope. Quite in ABR continuity.

It can just affect other continuities as well, and treats everything as a different continuity.

The plot-telelporter is actually kinda important to my character's backstory, and since it's already been in the plot, I really really must object to you writing it off as "it never happened because it's stupid".

Right, let's try this with diagrams.

Here we can see the main ABR continuity. I've left off SDSB and backstory comics, because SDSB would clutter it and I don't read most of the backstory comics, so don't know how they would fit in.
http://i194.photobucket.com/albums/z257/kerisrain/Plotaport2.png
This shows what the "plotaport" would be like if it were just a time machine. Simple, but can cause paradoxes. And you maintain that it isn't time travel, but we can use this for reference later.
http://i194.photobucket.com/albums/z257/kerisrain/Plotaport3.png
This is what I believe you mean the Plotaport is. It travels directly between the plots, without any movement in the x-axis, which is time in this diagram. The lower line is the same as the upper line, just shifted along in x and displaced in y. However, the shift in x should constitute time travel, as in diagram 2.
http://i194.photobucket.com/albums/z257/kerisrain/Plotaport4.png
This is what I think the Plotaporter should do. It fits within your definition of continuity shift, but the orphaned Plot 3 segment has no effect on the ABR continuity as a whole. It was created by the Plotaporter as a destination, and will probably be hell of a difficult for Mechafox to work out where to archive. Not that it wasn't before.

Shades of Gray
2009-05-31, 10:41 AM
Well that's a coincidence, I learned about all of that stuff just a few days ago, Keris.

So your saying that shifting plots has no relevance to the main plotline?

If we use time travel, then we can just say that the timeline branches off, the old one existing but not perceived by anyone in the new timeleine. One could travel to the other continuity, but that would require a plotaport, and thus it would be non-canon.

You're not quite right Keris. As Q stated, plotaporter doesn't effect time and jump only between plots, which means he can jump only to the part of plot which happens simultaneously with the plot he jumps from.......So if he jumps from FFF to P3, he can't change past much more than other participants of P3.....

But see, the act of simply jumping to another part of the plot changes space-time continuum. Even if it isnt time travel, the future has been iremediably modified on both the original location of the jump and the destination of the jump. Because in one universe there was a Q and now there isnt, and in another, a Q simply appears.

You have to look at this in a more abstract way.

Given that one of the main gods in the universe is plotus, then you can just say that it works because of his influence. He makes sure that everything works plot-wise, and tries to make it as interesting as possible.

I.e. If the plot would be cooler with a paradox, then there's a paradox. If the plot would be cooler if we ignored the paradox and went straight to action, then it is so.

Nope, there is nothing modified at all because it works only with plots.

We already know how the world will look when FFF starts, we can even tell how will FFF end. We also know how P3 started and when we have there FFF plot in the future, you can more or less tell how P3 will end.

Now there we've created two stationary and unchangeable points: The "beginning" and the "end" of plot. Given that, every action you'll do between these two points will never change the future plots at all because it always ends with "the end point of the plot"

In other words, you can't destroy the world in the P3 just because it's not destroyed in FFF.....

Thank Plotus for that...

Yeah, I know that time travel goes through the fourth, but the Plotaporter does not.

Maybe another way to explain this would be through webcomics.

Webcomic RGB has a character with a plotaporter.
Webcomic CYM has something a character is RGB would find useful.
Both webcomics are occuring/being drawn/running at the same time.


To a reader, it would appear that RGB has jumped over to CYM (sometimes called a crossover). Breaking the fourth wall means the characters in the story/plot know that they are IN a story/plot of whatever medium it happens to be.

In our case, it just so happens that CYM (Plot 3) is ancient history to RGB (FFF).

Isn't time the 6th?

I think universe is 7th, or something silly like that.

To be honest, the tesseract looks 3-D to me... It's really hard to visualize it being on a different plane/dimension, since the real world is only 3 dimensions (plus time, which can't be represented in more than one place at any given moment).

I just said that it went through the fifth (or some higher number) because I know what the previous four are (it's plausible that the fifth could be something like this in a fictionall universe right), not that the plotaporter goes through the fourth.

Yeah, but Q said it wasn't time travel. Hence the orphaned continuity.

But P3 is in the past of FFF. Either he went back in time, or he went to a different continuity. And the participants of P3 aren't changing anything, they are defining it.


edit: And also you've used inaccurate diagrams for this kind of situation....
How so? It's not to scale, but I didn't think it would need to be.


The way I understand it, Q's Plotaporter teleports him through the fourth wall, essentially what your third image does, except for having them be the same universe. Parallel universish thing.
Yeah, in this case the parallel universe is the Non-Canon P3 segment. It would actually have stuff before it, but it wouldn't lead on to another FFF, as he won't be affecting the future (as it's not time travel).



To be honest, the tesseract looks 3-D to me... It's really hard to visualize it being on a different plane/dimension, since the real world is only 3 dimensions (plus time, which can't be represented in more than one place at any given moment).

The deal with the Tesseract is that all the faces are on the outside. That's why it's 4D, not 3D, the drawing is a 3D representation.

But P3 is not concurrent with FFF. While they are being written simultaneously, they actually exist in different points within the same timeline. One cannot travel between them without moving along this timeline, so for Q to have not done so, he cannot have moved to P3. Instead, he moved to a facsimile of P3, in which he made alterations to the course of things. These alterations do not affect the main continuity, because they are fundamentally separate.

Incidentally, here are a couple of things that Q's plotaportation screws up:
Spaceships. While it is assumed that P3 had space craft, they are intended to be a recent innovation, Fort Longcat being the pride of a nation, and one of the only space-faring craft. If spacecraft were common, then a substantial part of the population would be able to escape the Cataclysm, which didn't happen.
Making Szilard the Richest Person in the Whole Universe. Obviously, this is going to cause huge ramifications to the economy in P3, due to the sudden influx of currency. Szilard is also now has no reason to continue working as an investigator for House Haalu, which would write him out of the plot. He's also apparently gained detailed knowledge of Arcane Incarnations, who are mythological bogeymen in P3, and given a piece of technology magical abilities, despite P3 being a low magic setting.

The clown-headed plot teleporter has already affected plot 3, but the plot teleporter considers it completely different to FFF and makes both things have nothing to do with eachother.

So basically the plot teleporter exists in every plot, but it doesn't effect the connection between them except that it sends characters between them.

Also, what a weird coincedence that neither of us seem to be online at the same time. Isn't that weird? :smallconfused:

But P3 is not completely separate from FFF. It is a prequel, and part of the same continuity. That's what it was created to be, that's what it is.

If it's P3 canon, it's part of the history. If it's not P3 canon, it's not. That's why I said we should have it taking place in an orphaned segment of P3, as on diagram 4.

Except it's not. At least not according to the guy who invented the clown-headed plot teleporter.

Apperently, everything stands on it's own. The only reason people in sequels remember anything from the first thing was because, when they were conjered into existance, they were given all the memories of the past thing. So, hypothetically, FI for example would stand on it own universe, and all the characters would just be clones given the memory of the past thing. Apperently the plots aren't actually in the same universe. Any connection was placed there to imitate a connection and coninuity is an illusion. According to this nut.

This theory, however, is the only way we can explain the invention. It moves, not to a different time, but to a different, completely unrealated universe. This universe is altered, because of the teleporter's involvement, but the future segments, being in another universe, aren't affected.

Get it?

No, we can explain in a similar, but slightly different, method.

The destination plotline is not separate from the original, because that destroys any notion of continuity the sequel may have. And if we continue your premise to a logical conclusion, then each comic exists in a vacuum, and the plot falls down.

Instead, a separate, orphaned, plotline is created as you use the Plotaporter. It is called into being in a vacuum, like the plotlines you describe, but the original continues.

Depends on the model of the Universe.

For the sake of argument, assume you could travel back in time. Because it's a lot easier to explain with, let's assume you want to go back and time and kill your grandmother so you can't be born.
Steps and events taken place in order
1) You go back in time
2) You find and kill your grandmother
3) You cease to exist as a result
4) You never existed during when you were SUPPOSED to go back in time and kill your grandmother
5) Nobody murders your grandmother, and nothing stops you from existing
6) Hence, you just did absolutely nothing. :smallcool:

Another way to look at it.
1) You successfully go back in time and kill your grandmother
2) Absolutely nothing happens.

My favorite way of looking at it.
1) You successfully go back in time
2) You find it impossible to get yourself in a position to cause lethal damage to your grandmother
3) Frustrated, you back to your time. Nothing changes.

The way I see it, no matter how much damage anyone from the future does in the past, it will not change the future in any way, shape, or form, because you were SUPPOSED to go back in time in the first place, you were SUPPOSED to skrew everything up.

Because stable time loops are not necessarily a part of the ABR universe.


For the sake of argument, assume you could travel back in time. Because it's a lot easier to explain with, let's assume you want to go back and time and kill your grandmother so you can't be born.

OR, you go back.
You kill your grandmother.
You go back to the future.
You have no identity in the future, as you were never born.
The scientists there wonder who the hell just stepped out of the time machine.

OR, you go back.
You kill your grandmother.
Guess what? That wasn't actually your grandmother.

OR, you go back.
You kill your grandmother.
Your father meets someone else, as your mother was never born.
They give birth to you. (similar to the one above).

1) Because then the event would've never happened, which it totally did happen.

Incidentally, here are a couple of things that Q's plotaportation screwed up:
Spaceships. While it is assumed that P3 had space craft, they are intended to be a recent innovation, Fort Longcat being the pride of a nation, and one of the only space-faring craft. If spacecraft were common, then a substantial part of the population would be able to escape the Cataclysm, which didn't happen.
Making Szilard the Richest Person in the Whole Universe. Obviously, this is going to cause huge ramifications to the economy in P3, due to the sudden influx of currency. Szilard is also now has no reason to continue working as an investigator for House Haalu, which would write him out of the plot. He's also apparently gained detailed knowledge of Arcane Incarnations, who are mythological bogeymen in P3, and given a piece of technology magical abilities, despite P3 being a low magic setting.

1) A time paradox would fold over on itself. The results are rather...mysterious. Unlikely to ever happen. :smalltongue:

2) The person you killed wasnt your grandmother? And the person was already murdered long before you were born. High probability.

3) You have no way of killing your grandmother. High probability as well.

4) Your father meets someone else? You wouldn't have had a reason to go back into the time machine when you did, so your father would not have needed to move onto someone else. Hence, argument 1 occurs. Extremely Unlikely.

5) All different time-dimensions have their own separate universes. You successfully murdering your grandmother would have zero repurcussions except in that single time-dimension. You'd still exist and your grandmother would still live (assuming she's still alive by the time you travel back in time in the first place) once you returned.

Well, I could just make a comic to render your plotaporting in P3 non-canon and get it back on track, but I'd have thought you'd rather work out a way to keep it.


1) A time paradox would fold over on itself. The results are rather...mysterious. Unlikely to ever happen. :smalltongue:
Divergent timelines, and the time machine moves between them. Not impossible.


4) Your father meets someone else? You wouldn't have had a reason to go back into the time machine when you did, so your father would not have needed to move onto someone else. Hence, argument 1 occurs. Extremely Unlikely.

You kill your grandmother.
Your father meets mother #1.
Cycle repeats.

Well, apart from being the obvious target for any thief in existence. And whoever is going after House Haalu, should he invest any of his money.

And Fort Longcat was an Aperture Science project, while Uncle Szilard is a freelancer working for House Haalu.

...Okay, bad example. But still! It'd be like in FFF and Nameless is randomly considered to have never existed because somebody thinks he doesn't make sense!

And another reason why your logic won't work is because the Plot Teleporter CAN'T use time travel! Because somebody threw a time-bomb thingy to stop all time travel, and it worked anyway! If it had anything to do with time, the Qs would've stayed in FFF! So there!

Okay, just a suggestion:
There is a deity of Time. Whenever someone screws with time, he gets mad and sends powerful agents, who are capable of creating 'fold' in time which effectively remove something from any continuity, causing you, while going to kill your grandmother, to suddenly disappear and being sent right back/being destroyed/being sent into an alternate dimension.
Just a random idea. :smallcool:

I know fiction writers normally use other kinds of time travel (most are more of a D-jump than anything) but there's only one right way of time-travelling (while staying in the same universe):

Everything you do has already happened because it's IN THE PAST and if you tried to kill your grandmother in the past then she should in the present that you came from already be dead, and if she weren't the you can't kill her.

All those where the future is changeable must be in another timeline (then doing stuff would help create the future of that one but the one you left would be the same)

Also;
@Q: Keveak has time-travelled (when he returned from teleporting out of the shade's stomach) so it is possible in Avbaroy, I'm pretty sure Nameless has too.

Fact: The entirety of P3 happens as part of the history of 3F. If an event happens in P3 it will have happened in 3F.

Fact: The plotaporter cannot travel in time.

If you plotaport to the actual canon P3, it won't work. It'd be like someone who can't go left or right trying to go like ten kilometres left. This is why the 'alternate continuity' or whatever works. Your P3 won't be in the past, so you won't have to time travel.

I'll just say that it's fourth-wall breaking. That it travels Q outside comic FFF, into the Giant In the Playground Forums (just to emphisis how this isn't a time warp) and into the comic of P3. It accepts the two has different stories, but it allows Q to be a part of both stories equally. There is no alternate timeline.

All right then, let's try this:

Option 1: You have moved, via the plot teleporter, to P3 proper. This is a transition of ~ -1530 years in the n-axis (time), and who knows what in the x-, y- and z- axis. This is time travel, and upsets the plots.

Option 2: You have moved to a separate continuity of P3. This is a transition along the "φ"-axis, which is the axis along which the fourth wall lies.

Yes. It can. It is traveling to a different FRIGGEN PLOT-

......

You know what? I'm tired of expalining. I've expalined how it has absolutely nothing to do with time again and again, but does anybody listen to me?

I'll just say that it's fourth-wall breaking. That it travels Q outside comic FFF, into the Giant In the Playground Forums (just to emphisis how this isn't a time warp) and into the comic of P3. It accepts the two has different stories, but it allows Q to be a part of both stories equally. There is no alternate timeline.

You know why?

Because the Q's COULDN'T TIME TRAVEL! They would've been stopped by the time bomb!

Now please, can we drop this before I lose what is left of any sainity I have?

So he ain't travelling through time but is still in both FFF and a plot going on thousands of years before? Please don't get mad at me:smallfrown:

Also; Why can't I be the one losing sanity:smallfrown: I never am

It's okay, there. I suppose I'm really not expalining it properly.

But I will see to it that someday, hopefully, with it's role in my backstories, that someday people will see the logic (yes, I haz logic) behind the invention.

But then again, maybe not. And that wouldn't be anybody's fault but my own.

Humans have crappy vision, so when there's all colours in the sunlight our brain only see it as white. If there Had been fewer colours then we couldn't see them (stuff absorbs certain colours and bounce back others, white is when all are bounced back and black is when none are)

No, it's kinda white, really. Apparently, it's actually every color, but all of it is lost along the way or something bizarre like that.

The emission curve for the sun, modelled as a black-body of temperature 5780K, has a peak emission at ~500nm. This is in the cyan/green region. Hence the sun gives off predominantly green light.

It appears orange/yellow in the atmosphere because the blue light is scattered by the atmosphere, which is why the sky appears blue.

However, the spread of frequencies emitted by the sun encompasses the entire spectrum, and a black-body is steeper before the peak, so the curve as a whole appears to have a yellow tint. But the modal colour is green.

The colour of the sun is 250-2500+ nanometers (apparently)... this is usualy green or yellow or even a blue-ish colour.

EDIT: However, technically speaking the sun is every colour.
At least every colour we can see.

It needs red, green and yellow (basic colors of light apparently) to allow us to see all colors (we can't see the mix of red and yellow if there's no red) is it possible that it could be there somewhere?

Also, should he have been "frozen" in 1026, then he would have lived to see the end of the Age of Dragons, and may have experiences of that era. You may want to pick his place of origin carefully, should he be part of ABR canon.

I said medieval (and 1526) so no, not ABR and I'm pretty sure that won't work either, think Avatar the last airbender like accident (he got caught in a storm and his powers kicked in and saved him by freezing him for a century) not awakened Chutulhu and got cursed like (I'm aiming for magic to be rare for the obvious reason that people hated the crap).

My apologies, I had assumed medieval fantasy. But even if magic is rare, he could still be enchanted. It depends on how rare, and what his powers are. You haven't given us much to work with.

Anyway, this is a comic set in 2026, with a 500 year old character? Could be interesting.

"How is that not clichéd" or "How is that not a cliché?" are the correct forms, cliché being a noun, while clichéd is a derived adjective.

And it is fairly cliché. But Keveak only specified alternatives to being frozen, and we have limited options here.

Tecnically it's more 2001 but no-one is that specific (mad science might be involved) and her (What? can't I try something new) powers are pretty much low magic with powerful outbursts (she can light a candle or call a book to her by will but stuff (mostly non-lethal) blows up if you scare or anger her) She is also one of the few who can use magic at all (at least of those who's gonna apear in-comic)

Then just have her have been in moral peril, and her magic sent her forwards as a reflex action. It could either have sent her almost 500 years forwards by accident, or perhaps it took 500 years for whatever was threatening her to die away.

I think her powers freezing her down is more plausible than time-travel.. Which sounds powerful enough to just kill them instead of wasting energy (it's basically just humans anyway) That and there's other results from it that work best with the frozen-style thing (I was hoping for an equivalent of the freezing thing, I just can't remember another non-lethal preserving method) But thanks for the help anyway:smallsmile:

Technically, cryonics isn't generally non-lethal. It's not been proven to work for any sustained time period of useful length, due to problems with chilling the entirety of the body simultaneously. Then the body must be thawed evenly as well, making resuscitation almost impossible. Most attempts at cryonics with modern technology bet on technology advancing to the level where the person can be brought back safely while the person is frozen.

I think a breach in the space time continuum could work, or you could go for an obviously magical transitional state, like turning to stone as a statue.

The trouble is, the thawing out can be what kills the subject, if not done evenly. You'd need to include magic, or advanced technology, at that point, which would apply to a petrified subject as well (or a soft/golden needle...).

Magic is the reason to it so I hardly see the problem (they did the same thing on Avatar even though it has nothing to do with bending that he ain't frozen) and petrification is starting to sound like a good idea.

Emotional. It's usually characterized by self-pity and sorrow, so...

It's also a terrible genre of music.

I agree on this :smalltongue:

How do you describe normal?

Because, if you consider normal to be like the majority, and the majority of us is insane, then you wouldn't be normal.

If you consider the rest of us insane and yourself sane.

Mina Kobold

He wouldn't even be the only sane person:smallbiggrin: I could, if I got crazy enough to see the thruth (whatever that is) I get pretty close when standing outside looking at the moon (it was after midnight so I might have been a little tired)

Yes but normal is the majority of the world, if he is like that and is here then he's a normal guy here. (else it gets confusing)

For the record Q, it's not that Cal was aiming for you in particular, he doesn't actually know where the rest of the heroes are and so the citadel seemed like a good place to look. It's just that Q happened to be there and stuff.

Response coming, probably after I finish my exams.

So Calamity is looking for the heroes and wants revenge on them? You could've said that in your comic. It certainly seemed like he was going for Q. How was I supposed to know that? :smallconfused::smallannoyed:

In any case, do whatever you want, but I kindly request Calamity to stay for the karaoke. It'll be epic. :smalltongue:

I believe I have also added a character for FI other then the Q pair. I had planned Nath Bortak the gargoyle to be on UNA, possibly brainwashed. Just while we're on the subject.

I also think I may make another character for FI, but I'm kinda fence sitting on it, hard to tell if it's a stupid character idea or not.

When my new character idea is fully baked I might show it to you all to make sure whether it is a cool character or not.
