  1. Re:you got it wrong on Star Wars, the Lost Interviews · · Score: 2, Interesting

    All I know is, if I were Obi Wan, I would have made sure Lord Vader was indeed dead on Mustafar!

    i didnt say that. probably you mis-replied ?

    but, yea, i would probably be able to kill him. Wait, remove the "probably" from the preceding sentence.

    "zarth" intended.

    as for the killing thing - you need to physically/spiritually harm a human being enough so that body will not be able to support conscious life.

    where is the body harmed in obi-wan's case ? no jedi in lore have died like that in any of the movies ?

    something else happened there.
  2. you got it wrong on Star Wars, the Lost Interviews · · Score: 2, Interesting

    zarth didnt take obi wan's life.

    remember the end of episode 3. yoda said to obiwan that there has been a way discovered to communicate from the afterlife, and the discoverer was qui gonn, his former teacher. and qui gonn contacted yoda. yoda said to obi wan about exile in tatooine, and there was training involved in it too. basically qui gonn taught obi wan about matters afterlife, how to come back to commune with the physical and such. obi wan have let vader "kill" himself, though, killing needs to mean more than just plain old evaporating into thin air.

    lore aside, what i most enjoyed from episode 3 and obi wan kicking vader's ass was the fact that all those vader/darth wannabees who scoured the games (swg, kotor, online offline any game), communities and etc babbling about how dark was more powerful, oooh how cool it was, darth maul was such and such, (he looks more like a punk, prodigy, hence bambinos envy him more, not vader) and how light side was just pathetically weak, ho ho ho, this and that, have their mouth shut up tight after obi wan kicking vader's butt in episode 3. then we have started to see quite a many obi wan avatars, toons, nickname variations in games and around the internet.

    in other "mafia states" you can go marching in the streets protesting the government, and with enough pressure you can take them down. in other mafia states, you can say "fuck you" to vice president of the country in front of 200 million international audience, then mount your bike, and cycle away.

    in russian mafia state, the slightest thing you say in the street against the government returns you as police brutality.

  24. It makes total sense on Second Life To Open Source Server Code · · Score: 1

    Just check out Ultima Online.

    Ea hadnt been cramping on anyone who is running devised versions of their server in different emulator communities, and as a result there are zillions of free ultima online servers around and zillions of people playing in those. Despite the fact that there are also a goodly number of servers that are letting people play uo with them for a monthly fee.

    But, almost all of them who keep on playing ultima online cease playing on free servers and goes signs up with osi, uo's official server at some later point.

    this is due to the fact that, inevitably mishaps this or that way happens in those non-official uo servers, your account gets deleted, your items get lost, features never get completed to reflect entirety of osi's service and such. so, sooner or later players who really get hooked up with up get fed up, and go sign up for an osi account.

    this is the only thing that has been keeping ultima online running for that long a time from 1994-5 to now, despite the fact that it was so outdated even 1-2 years after it came out.

    second life is following in its footsteps. they are going to open source everything, let everyone run a sl server, and when people who are playing in those servers come face to face with bugs, issues, mismanagement problems etc (note that running an 3 d online world server is much more demanding than running an uo server), they will do what ? go for the real thing instead, and go sign up with SL in its original source.

    simple as hell. fantastic marketing tactic.
