    So a handful of Pikalites, say 30, can produce about 27.5 GW? For an average .917 GW per Pikalite? That seems like a lot for a being that has to continue trying to live as well. And living things need to eat as well...

    Of course, if they can only produce .917 GW each, 1 second of energy isn't that useful I'd think.



    Keris, 1 Pikalite = .15 Dol or is it 1 Dol = .15 Pikalite? And were'd you get that from?

    My phrasing was messed up, as was my interpretation of my hastily scrawled figures. I meant 1 Pikalite = 4 Dol.
    A handful is usually ≈5 (the number of digits on one hand). That would put it at 5.5 Dol per Pikalite, but I decided to err on the side of caution and go for 4 Dol per Pikalite. That means 1 Pikalite is about 0.15 of the total 27.5, which is where my erroneous figure came from.

    This puts the output of each Pikalite at a very impressive 4GW.

    Heh, now Keris is only half evil. Redemption is a wonderful thing. Or so I'm told.

    The latter is correct.

    Yeah, as you might recall, I ran into... difficulties last time when attempting to attain true evil status. And odds are, the № of the Beast is actually 666. The earliest records we have (Irenaeus in the 2nd century) says it's 666, while the 3rd century manuscripts say 616.

    I THINK one of the Old Star Wars CCG's turbolaser cards had some lore text that mentioned it fired ionized gas, but I don't know if I even have the card any more, or if I traded it to a friend back when they still made the game.

    Ok then, I use 4 GW. I'm going use Stoichiometry for convertions. Barrel of Oil Equivalent is the amount of energy a barrel of crude oil can produce. (42 USA gallons) Work in spoilers.

    We are left with .65 Barrel of Oil Equivalents per second. That's 1 Pikalite producing the same amount of energy as 27.3 gallons of crude oil in one second. That is a tremendous amount of energy for something that small, especially if it can sustain that output.

    That also raises the question of why not just use ~80 Pikalites to run their experiment, what ever it is

    Yeah, forgive me, but that just doesn't sound right to me either, Keris...


    EDIT: Off-topic, is anyone else tracking the development of TOR?. The waiting is already starting to get to me, and I've only been tracking it for a few days. I'm Korin Hyvek on the boards (Incidently, that's the name of my current avatar, and the smuggler I hope to create once the game comes out).


    ON yet another off-topic train of thought, does anyone else play the Star Wars Roleplaying game?

    Third- and fourth-century versions are not older than the second century versions. Ergo, the older one is 666.

    Yeah, it looks like Lying goofed somewhere there. He should probably shift the decimal point left a couple of digits in the last panel.

    It's a world where you can reconstruct a mountain by saying a word but small yellow guys aren't allowed to produce a lot of energy? (it could be their form of magic you know) besides using your own people as a power source when you can use another method is cruel (I assume they where in a hurry and thus couldn't wait for the last Dol to be available by other methods in the comic)

    What's the word that allows you to reconstruct a mountain?

    Also, how do you know it's cruel? If it is indeed something natural to the Pikalites, why would it hurt them when they produce electricity?

    Magic has physics too, after all...


    To be honest, though, pikalites generating that much from what appear to be entirely biological means does not make sense, and ruins my willing suspense of disbelief

    Straining to produce as much as possible could, but otherwise, no it shouldn't.

    They say there will be a red planet named broccoli passing by making everything die and at the same time the solar system will align the milkyway's equator and that will cause us to get sucked into the black hole in the galactic center.

    So it will probably be very painful or not.

    I don't believe it, certain religious organisations have announced the end of the world at least thrice last century (they announced it would happen in times in that century too) and it hasn't happened yet.

    Yeah I'm saying I don't believe i it so it will happen, yay reverse psychology and bad logic!

    Anyway, I think the picalites could get their power from the same source as mages do.

    Yeah. They don't make Apocalypses like they used to. I mean, what do you say when a guy summons Middle Age, Drunken Scuffle, Just A Cold, and I'm Hungry Let's Get Pizza. You know he's trying, but it's just no the same.

    You think it's 2009 after Christ? But that means They captured you all in the sick illusion of a twisted reality while sacrificing you one by one to their cruel gods! Get out when you can!!

    Oh no, it found me, I must get away! See ya.

    Issue: You're assuming that your definition of "handful" is the same as that of the Pikalites.

    Given their population figures it's possible their "handful" slang term is actually equivalent to a hundred or more Pikalites.

    Even if "handful" means a literal handful of Pikalites, it's still probably more than 5, especially since they're talking to a Medium-sized creature and are probably Small or Tiny-sized creatures themselves.

    tiny, compared to the size of kobolds and other small sized creatures that came across FFF, ABR and generally everything OotS style so far.

    Third- and fourth-century versions are not older than the second century versions. Ergo, the older one is 666.
