Universe V's Ooniverse

Post by Alex »

G'day Commanders,

A wee thought on the difference of physics between the Universe and Ooniverse.

Never mind the usual star trek, blake7 or any other SiFi series that try to hold the Uni (one, singular) verse. somewhat near reality.
The Ooni (Mmmm. wonder were that prefix comes from?) verse takes none of that into consideration. As it should not.
It is a game afterall.
Maybe and certainly for my farthings worth (if you remember farthings your showing your age. UK only.) the best tdm (tdm=This Damn Machine) game of all time so far.

If you don't mind 'mind bending play with physics, try Dr Who.
Only the longest running SiFi series in the Universe, dunno if it's shown in your Ooniverse.

Back in the 60's I already missed the first few Dr's.

Great stuff to streach your imagination. And ideas of "real" physics.

So Please do not ruin my fun in my Ooniverse by putting your universe in to it.

My Ooniverse;
Heaps of thanks to all the commanders that know how to write oxp'rs. and don't worry about physics of the Universe.
Think of the Tardis... So much for apparent size!

Just to make some of you smile, a quote from a 4 your old that didn't/wouldn't/couldn't want to undsrstand the adults around her.
I am her uncle.

"T.U.F.F. Tough"

I feel the same when other prog.writers try to impose Universe physics on the Ooniverse.
LOOK OUT!!!

I'm afraid I do remember farthings... and the first Dr Who.
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills
And any survivors, their debts I will certainly pay. There's always a way!

Why be afraid?
The start of imagination.
Keeps libraries alive.
Solutions to light speed.
Ooops Ooniverse.
Universe..
History teaches imagination becomes reality.

"The Man On The Moon"
"Under The Sea's"

All were fantasy.
Once upon a time,

Never give in, Never give up, you too can fly a Ubber ship of you choice or an adder for fun, with heaps of rust.
Your choice, your fun.
LOOK OUT!!!
