Yes but you are for stating the already stated

...Just as many have... :|

It wasn't that you stated what had been said previously. It was the way you said it; as if we were idiots for not thinking of what you were saying (which wasn't exactly original, in any case).

If I['m going by the first time I played MO, then Maggie is alive. I gave her my lungs :p.

There is nothing to suggest that she NEEDs Gabbit lungs, it's just that their lungs have a less stronger chance of being damaged.

hmmm... I wonder why exactly Gabbit lungs are perfect for glukkons in the 1st place. Besides, how would a new glukkon or even a gabbit lung work for someone so big? It would be to small to work.

Don't forget that most of a Glukk's 'body' is made up of his legs under a suit. Their actual core is quite small.

You mean, aside from the fact that she has lung cancer and is on life support?

indeed the size would be perfect:

On the other hand Maggie is a bit bigger ;)

Even if I suppose they could use some other creature's lung, the ones of the Gabbits might be more compatible with the Glukkon anatomy, and cause less rejects.

Just try to put any annimal lungs in a human body, you'll see it won't work :p

You can put pig heart-valves in humans though.

Maggie may be bigger than normal glukks, but it's probable the Vykkers would still treat her the same as they wouldn't have much knowledge and experience to do with treating a Queen. It's also possible that her vital organs are the same as a drone and the extra body mass is all to do with reproduction.

Xavier 02-01-2006 11:21 AM

yep I totally agree with you

for that pig heart-valves that's what I meant, you can perhaps put those pig-heart valves in the human body, but I doubt you can put a... (random guess) ...dog's pancreas.

Of course you can put a dog's pancreas in the human body. The person would most likely die soon after but I'm sure you could get it in there. :)

Which is why no-one is suggesting putting a Slog's lungs in Maggie. Gabbit lungs have been found to be a particularly replacement, just like pig valves.
