: Can't we *all* just get along? :-P
My foot! :-)
: Well, I still think we can look beyond all of that to get
: the good and rich information within.
It's like trying to decipher a piece of ancient parchment…that's in a different language we don't know…and burned… I'd prefer being in a pitch-black dance hall wearing ultra-dark sunglasses and try to still find an attractive dancepartner…snowball from Hades anyone?
: We don't actually know too much about what happened. I
: guess this point does have to be conceeded, however.
: The endorsement just doesn't hold up, but there is
: still a lot of good information, and looking beyond it
: to get what we want is good enough, and canon.
Nope, it's not. The good is far too tainted by the bad.
: We can look beyond that too, to the good and detailed
: information.
Too hard and too impossible without knowing what to look for. It would be hard as hell even with the orig. docs. in hand.
: Nice anology, but mb we should keep from such descriptive
: ones, if you know what mean? :-) I still think what we
: want can be withdrawn and held up.
Sure. You won't get anything from the pile except what we already know is truth from the game.
: True, but until Myth III, GURPS is canon and good.
Nope, MJ said no, so we are helpless until then :-).
: •••
: But in reality, it's false. We're talking about reality,
: and no one cares about legality anyway.
: .endpoint
Mb I do?
: As the canon list showed and described, only the ingame
: texts are the most pure and the most believable of the
: story (of course, they are admitadly heresayings from
: that world, but we understand and compensate for
: that). There is no canon besides ingame.
And what Bungie approves is nothing nowadays?
: Agreed. However, Bungie is dead. All rights of Myth were
: given to Take 2, which were then handed to MJ. That
: means that what MJ approves or disapproves of,
: publically, privately, legally, is the only thing now
: with any real legal, technical authority on anything.
: MJ disapproves of GURPS and contradicts is. Bungie no
: longer can say anything either way against or for
: anything Myth at all. It has no say anymore. Since MJ
: does and says GURPS is not ok, it's not ok anymore, if
: it had been ever. Myth III is coming out in October,
: and then our story will be revealed. Until then, GURPS
: is useless.
Ah…this is the clincher. There is nothing beyond this. All other points are trivial in comparison, on either side. GURPS has no berring beyond MJ, so…it's over; pretty much what Forrest already said. gg :-)
