In Response To: the right timeline an attack on GURPS (killing duck)

: Allright, after reading the macaddict intewiew with the
: Bungie man, it became clear to me that the GURPS
: timeline aint even a possble timelin theory any moore.

that interview is oooooooooold boi and even if it was correct the stuff you came up with doesn't make any sense

: one of the first thing to critizize with the GURPS
: timline is that there is no proove. GURPS dont tell
: why they have this theori.
: they just present it and many aslylumers just yes here is
: the answer.

GURPS says a lot of things..
Myth TFL and Myth II don't have proof of a timeline either

: But after reading that macadiict article i became aware
: that the old ASylum timeline was the most correct,
: because it dont conflict with any of the things the
: bungie man said.
: GURPS is an allright book, a good book. they describe the
: different races almost supremely,and i think that it
: is also in their race discription they have used the
: secret bungie files.

: I have also heard some people saying that Connacht ruled
: over the wolf age and that the sword age wa supposed
: to be dark, but if you follow the original timeline,
: the timeline that dosn't conflict with neither the
: article or the game, then you can see that the sword
: age was supposed to be light, and tada it was light,
: no problem there.

no..
each age is 1000 years it even says that in the game
the age corresponds with a hero or leveller and thus is either dark or light

: What GURPS does is that it takes the only age we have a
: good knowledge of and says the is an exeption not the
: rule.

because it had a leveller in it who should have secured the dark victory and killed alric before dying

: let us now see what happened in the dark wolf age and in
: the light sword age.

: wOLF AGE.
: Balor appears
: Muirthemne is sacked.
: Cath Bruig fell.
: Balor infiltrated the east and the west.
: balor build up an enermeus army.
: Balor conqured Gower, a land that is an outpost, that
: means that there is a strong military activity.
: also it means that Cath burig used alot of power trying
: to stop balor before he reached the mainland cath
: bruig.
: Balor took over the myrmidioans
: civil war in the west.
: evidence indicates war between Cath bruig and the west.
: population became poor because of the wars.
: Deciver switched over to the dark.
: watcher teamed up with Balor
: Soulblighter temaed up with Balor
: Shiver teamed up wit Balor
: etc. etc.

whoa...
this is WAY WAY WAY WAY wrong dude
first of all the Wolf age is the age of light it says that in the game
this is the time period where Connacht was ruling over the Cath Bruig empire
Yes Balor probably showed up sometime during the end but he did NOT destroy Muithemne until the beginning of the Sword Age..

: sword age.
: Alric rises.
: dark progress is stopped after 17 years in the west.
: balor is killed
: watcher is killed
: shiver is killed
: deciver almost killed
: faceless man killed
: bonesplitter killed
: soulblighter killed
: deciver killed
: shiver killed again.
: the dark collapses.
: the west is united.
: economic progress during the peace.
: peace between fir' bolg and humans
: peace between Trow and humans
: Cath bruig rebuild, alric new emperor.

this is pretty much right except Alric rose sometime during the Age of Light..
He was the king of the province back then
The Sword Age began when Balor appeared and sacked Muithemne and destroyed the Cath Bruig empire

: actuelly the only weird thing is Soulblighter viontly
: attack on the west.
: but that can be explained by the fact that Soulblighter
: and deciver survided, so alric didn't defeat all evil.
: so what i am saying is that Alric first won when he
: killed Soulblighter.

not really..
all Alric needed to do was kill Balor however Balor was supposed to have secured the dark victory by then
perhaps he did, that is why Soulblighter tried to destroy the world.

: so here it is the orrigianl and coreect time line.

: 1. Era

: name-----light/dark----hero/bad guy----east/west--year.
: 1.age unknown--dark---------unknown---------
: west-----0-500
: 2.age axe
: age--light--------unknown---------east----500-1000

: 2.ERA
: 3.age
: unknown--dark--------unknown-------east-----1000-1500
: 4.age age of light Tireces west 1500-2000
: reason
: 3.ERA

: unknown--dark-------Moagim--------west-----2000-2500

: Wind age--light----Connacht------east-----2500-3000
: 4.ERA

: Wolf age--dark-----Balor-----------east----3000-3500

: sword age--light----Alric-----------west----3500-4000

actually you are way off
here's the timeline

Axe Age/Golden Age of the Trow - dark
Age of Reason - light
Wind Age - dark
Age of Light/Wolf Age - light
Sword Age - supposed to be dark

: there it was the only weakness of this is that we dont
: know the names of all the dark ages, but i know why.
: imagine
: you being a peasent in the wolf age. your village is
: burning and muirthemne is sacked. now would you think
: "i must remember the name of tha old dark
: age" no you dont
: you forget the old evil ages and think about all the
: light ages , because you know that someday the light
: will come again. That is also the reason why we only
: remember then name of one evil lord and that is
: Moagim, the explenation on this is that Connacht is
: still rembered as a great hero ( especcialy in Myth
: TFL) and when you know conaacht you also know the
: tales of the enemy i fought aginst.

this would make sense if it were true

: then we have the first Era nothin exept the name of the
: axe age is remembered from here, but it is also 3500
: years from the sword age to the first evil age. none
: of you knows the names of 4000 year old heroes, and
: especcialy not if your nation was overun by an evil
: lord every thousand yers right.

: oaky that is all i have to say about that, and if any of
: you belive in the official bungie sources more than an
: RPG book then this theory would seem correct, but if
: you thrust GURPS better than the official games and
: official bungie sources then you can't support this
: theory.

except you neglegted stuff from the game and went by that old interview more

: but the GURPS people have one thing left and that is that
: bungie accepted the book, i think i know the reason
: why: allriht bungie thought it was a good book for RPG
: wich is what the book is meant for, and the timelien
: is a theory, and BUngie wouldn't say that that theory
: is some shit rewrtie it.

: GURPS is a book of theories a guiding line, not a fact
: book!

: the banned and exiled mighty: Killing duck
: whos finger are falling of

okay sorry to destroy your little theory here

even if it was the way it was said in the interview
Each age is STILL 1000 years not 500
the cycle happens in Milleniums not in 500 year periods
So then the first have of the age the leveler comes and kills everyone and the second half a hero comes and saves the day
