But maybe only once.


Where do you get this? Surely the chances of anything six-dimensional looking like anything three-dimensional is zero?

I was referring to the different three dimensional planes in the sixth dimension...I think.

Well, you know what would be awesome? If there are humanoid aliens. Because we have a common ancestor who traveled the stars, formed colonies, civilization died out or something, then colonies were isolated. Eventually, they would evolve to fit their environment. That'd be ace.

1. this is not a spawn , it is sub-zero my favorite fighter from the mortal kombat series.

well , after sometime i found out i didn't believe in aliens cause i thought my religion says they don't exist , but i got it all wrong , i found out that my religion says they surely do , and there is also a big chance that there are many different kinds of them.
there are still what we don't know on our planet , what about outer space?
yes , aliens do exist.
and alien magi is one of the worlds most famous aliens , as smart as abe , as powerful as stranger and ofcourse as odd as munch:D.

So you suddenly change your mind like that that quick because of something small like that? Very fickle.
And Alien Magi is an idiot.

Give it a few hundred million years, considering we're barely able to successfully get onto the moon, seldom attempt to live on other planets, which would require enviornment suits or domes or something anyway, so I doubt evolution to fit the environment of those planets is plausible. Maybe planets somewhere else, if we survive long enough to be able to reach them.

Yes, it's much more likely that this is the only inhabited planet in an atleast 93X93 billion light year Universe.

Larry Niven's Known Space anthologies and stories would interest you.

3 dimensional in 6 dimensional ? I am starting to go shit , what do u mean by that weird stuff? and changing my mind because of my religion isn't something small , and as for alien magi he isn't an idiot if he isn't already a genius.

Take a flat piece of paper, that is a two dimensional plane, now take the world we live in, this is a three dimensional plane. Take another piece of paper, what you have now are two two dimensional planes sharing occupancy in a three dimensional universe, scale this up to six dimensions (Which string theory tells us is the point where we can fold space time upon itself) and we should have an infinite amount of our 3d planes in this 6d continuum.

Roll saving throw and take 6d-20 damage.

Bullet Magnet 09-06-2008 03:23 AM

Enough spam, Nemo.

Nemo 09-06-2008 04:32 AM

Sorry, that's just what I immidietly thought of when he said "6d"

abe619 09-06-2008 05:02 AM

well now i understand but u told me stuff i already know , i know the whole world is 3d and papers 2d but what i didn't understand is the 6d part

Zerox 09-06-2008 09:28 AM

I think the concept of a 6D universe is beyond the human brain, if such a thing is even possible. Visualising 4D is virtually impossible as is, if that is possible either.

abe619 09-06-2008 10:11 AM

i think 6D is impossible cause what makes 3 extra dimensions above the first 3?

God does. amirite?!

Bullet Magnet 09-06-2008 01:54 PM

lol

We are beings of three dimensions, and can barely understand a fourth (time), but higher dimensions of space are theorised and can be mathematically understood.

If I may take this opportunity to shamelessly plug my blog.

Havoc 09-06-2008 03:26 PM

Aliens exist and if they are even a bit smarter then us they will stay the fuck away from us.

Hate to break it to you son, but a sheet of paper is 3d too.

Jordan 09-06-2008 04:05 PM

As far as I know, nothing can be 2D unless it's a game designed to be. All objects have a width, height and depth, and without all three, it will cease to exist. See Abe619, paper is still thick enough to be 3D, though it's still not that thick. Come on, common sense here.

Bullet Magnet 09-06-2008 04:18 PM

Well obviously. It was an analogy designed to make a complex concept easy to grasp by way of making it incorrect enough to be understandable by the human mind.

abe619 09-06-2008 04:47 PM

well atleast their are virtually 2D.

used:) 09-07-2008 07:03 AM

Are you saying this is what paper looks like?

abe619 09-07-2008 08:58 AM

because it's on pc it's 2D , however , if u print it itwill be 3D

Bullet Magnet 09-07-2008 11:27 AM

Yes, the physical object will be 3D. However, the image will still be 2D. The image on our very retinas is 2D, god dammit.

Strike Witch 09-07-2008 11:33 PM

2D-fruity?

Hobo 09-11-2008 04:13 PM

2D or not 2D?

Bullet Magnet 09-11-2008 06:26 PM

I just can't win, can I?

Strike Witch 09-12-2008 12:44 AM

You're not trying hard enough.

Don't believe in you, who believes in me.
Don't believe in me, who believes in you.
Believe in you, who believes in yourself.
