Re: Darths and Droids III: Search Your DNA Report
Well, Lucas wouldn't do that because he made his money thanks to those rabid fans... And if they have fun with it... meh, whatever. It's not like Star Wars fans and Star Trek fans would ever get into a serious physical confrontation. So there's little chance there ever will be any real harm done.
That's a pretty dense planet... what is it made of? I mean, yeah, there's gravitational pressure that kind of makes stuff more dense than it should be but 64 t/m³?

Re: Darths and Droids III: Search Your DNA Report
The description suggests it was a gas giant that's had its envelope ripped off by its star, leaving only the core.
Iron, nickel, and heavy elements like lead and uranium, are what are present in Earth's core- similar may be true for the gas giant core, with the gravity, and weight of the original hydrogen envelope, having compressed it as much as possible.
Alternatively it's not a gas giant core at all, but a red dwarf/brown dwarf core- akin to a very small white dwarf star.

That was very dense- still, this thing is far smaller and denser.Marut-2 Avatar by Serpentine

Re: Darths and Droids III: Search Your DNA Report
Seems like a valid assumption, I guess... the again after the loss of the "atmosphere" I'd expect the core to expand rather violently... I'm too lazy to do any math on that, though. I guess NASA knows what they are doing.
Leia is pretty harsh on R2 considering he is kind of responsible for getting her rescued in the first place...
Also, running from battles is for cowards

Re: Darths and Droids III: Search Your DNA Report
Postdocs are typically temporary positions of about two years (after which one either manages to find a tenure-track / permanent position, another postdoc somewhere else, or flames out of academia and looks for non-academic work depending on the quality of one's work). So I'm guessing that we'll see a two year time skip and Episode 5 will begin with Annie and Jim coming back from wherever they're going.

Re: Darths and Droids III: Search Your DNA Report
Eh, I'm not too bothered about it. Skype is a thing. Very possibly they'll just drop a random comment about video chat and then continue on as before.

From the discomfort of truth there is only one refuge and that is ignorance. I do not need to be comfortable, and I will not take refuge. I demand to *know*.

Re: Darths and Droids III: Search Your DNA Report
No, I think the break is much more likely. Why else bring it up? Just for the sake of the real life? Then again, it is a bit weird this would refer to the end of Empire Strikes Back since that is the end of the next campaign. Maybe they'll leave after this and then they'll play again when Jim and Annie are back for vacation or whatever and then leave again before the final movie? I'm not sure.

Re: Darths and Droids III: Search Your DNA Report
Annie is surely in favor of Iceland. Less competition for struggling actresses there.

Re: Darths and Droids III: Search Your DNA Report
This OOC plot point is to explain why Han/Jim leaves right before the final battle only to tear-jerkingly return just in time to make Vader roll a 1 on his Pilot check because it turns out he doesn't need to leave for another couple weeks.

Re: Darths and Droids III: Search Your DNA Report
Did I miss something? Jim mentions "both" jobs are "overseas", and then he mentions Iceland and L.A. I thought they were Americans?

Re: Darths and Droids III: Search Your DNA Report
Well, there was also this comment:
"The line is a reference to Abbott and Costello's most well-known comedy routine, Who's on First? (For those of you not familiar with it and who would like to see it, there's a video here.) Despite being a distinctly American comedy routine, based around a discussion of baseball, it has entered the common consciousness of western culture - so much so that all but one of us Australians were familiar with it. "May you get EXACTLY what you wish for.

They need to give one of the villains an American accent to clear this up.

Re: Darths and Droids III: Search Your DNA Report
Oh god, I just had a dilbert comic flashback to this. The Elbonians were working on customer service and the supervisor said, "Remember to speak in your american accents!"
"Yee haw! Lets put the dawg in the Chevy! Look at the size of my missiles!"
"Uh, we only do it that way in the breakroom.""Interdum feror cupidine partium magnarum Europae vincendarum"
Translation: "Sometimes I get this urge to conquer large parts of Europe."
"If you don't get those cameras out of my face, I'm gonna go 8.6 on the Richter scale with gastric emissions that'll clear this room."
