(??:??)pwnz2much: friendly contact with pwnz0 in your relative future (??:??)pwnz2much: strictly speaking, it shouldn't be possible, given what pwnz1 and i know of this timeline (??:??)pwnz2much: by our calculations, the only chronological agent that should be able to influence pwnz0's attitude like that is himself (??:??)pwnz2much: but for that to happen, he'd need time powers already... (12:37)Admiral Pancake: What if he... warmed up to us in the future, and then decided it would be advantageous if we started working together earlier? (??:??)pwnz1ng: thatd DEFANITELY fork the timeline (??:??)pwnz2much: exactly. pwnz0 voluntarily working with you was never in your relative future... but then something in his past happened to change that (??:??)pwnz2much: pwnz0's present (from his perspective, the future from yours) attitude changing cant cause his past (your present) to change, or his future attitude would never have changed in your present (??:??)pwnz1ng: now, there COULD have been going to be a timeline fork... like, if we will engineer a situations that forces him to work with uss, he could have been going to have changed his mind in his past/your... future but lses futre (??:??)pwnz1ng: but idont even need to do the math 2 say that's irreconciable (??:??)pwnz1ng: and we know taht dindt happen because a fork'd change ur temporal coordinates (??:??)pwnz1ng: and then u'd lost contact with us, which isnt happen (12:40)Admiral Pancake: ...right. Frankly, it amazes me that you can keep all this in your head. (??:??)pwnz2much: if you lived in a post apocalyptic wasteland with no other people around for miles except a bunch of mad max ripoffs (??:??)pwnz2much: you'd find a project to throw yourself into, too (??:??)pwnz2much: but my tragic backstory aside, this a) confirms the existance of a hostile time traveler and b) gives us an angle on 'em (??:??)pwnz1ng: id like to grab some conspirators in ur past 4 a scheme (??:??)pwnz1ng: hehehehehehehehehehehe (??:??)pwnz1ng: and weve found a way to turn that against his friends /message --file=amazing_badass_apshodel_scheme.txt Admiral_Pancake
(??:??)pwnz1ng: the titles only a little bit hyperbolic (??:??)pwnz1ng: shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
"Frankly, it amazes me that you can keep all this in your head." Good lord, I agree, but gosh Pwnz2's response cracks me up but also makes me feel bad for him... At least his mad max timeline still has unichat! (Also Asphodel shenanigans incoming! D: ) edit delete reply
But then, he's got no means anymore to travel back to the past to prevent himself from becoming a time-traveler.
If future Pwnz0rz wins, he loses the means to win and therefore loses, and therefore he gains them back so he wins just to lose again?
I'd be cliché if I said I've got a headache, so I'll simply state that this situation seems "mostly harmless".
Where "mostly" reads roughly as "not at all". edit delete reply
