So now that there a millions of aisha, how does that interact with the ulfmind? Option a) ulf's brainchip only tracks one specific timeline, only one aisha is in a universe with the ulfmind and the millions of others experienced an abrupt disconnect (but actually this is happening to a near infinite number of chipped ulfs and we are only able to see the ones still connected) Option b) aisha's chip also causes the new ulf to be networked as well, so the ulfmind is growing at the same rate and ulf can see that there are suddenly more ulfs Either way seems like aisha is very visible and in trouble, unless ulf is too preoccupied fighting the angels

Splicer posted:The chip isn't causing timeline splits, it maintains a connection between naturally splitting timelines as they diverge. Divergence is happening constantly without chips maintaining connections. The entire universe is multiplying every moment, they're just not talking to each other.. The chips only are connecting specific timelines. So when we have 2 ulfs we have communication between A' and B'. Those are two timelines out of an infinite number, so at any moment an infinite number of ulf As split off, and can no longer talk to B, since only A' is connected to B'. In a week the orphaned ulfs would start off a new network, presumably. In almost every universe ulf A suddenly realizes he can't talk to ulf B, but since we were anthropically following A', none of that ever came up until now.

Splicer posted:You have Ulf A' and Ulf B'. Ulf A' splits off an exponentially increasing number of Ulf Ans and Ulf B' splits off an infinity Ulf Bns. Each Ulf An maintains contact with the matching Ulf Bn. So, basically, you are saying the entire gestalt of multiple parallel worlds forks simultaneously and in perfect sync, rather than each universe doing its own thing randomly?

Splicer posted:They fork constantly. "Every moment our universe splits into a gazillion other universes". Plenty of Ulfs to go round. Yeah but if they weren't in perfect sync, you'd end up with the networks mingling or breaking. Also if the brain chip only connects two fixed timelines and fails in any offshoots, the probability of being in a universe where the chip worked is 0, it's only the anthropuc principle that makes us follow this Ulf. Since the other chip testers before Ulf were nonprotagonists, we didn't see the 2/infinity timelines that were linked together.

some plague rats posted:Oh and another thing that makes for a good fight scene: the Jackie Chan principle, even if it's a fight to the death between deadly enemies you're allowed to make it funny. TESB is a great example: everyone is having so much fun, and it's infectious, and it makes the serious moments like Luthar getting run through hit way harder. But before then the corpses getting launched, and the swarm of simps, and nose guy realising they're in trouble because this guy looks cool, and noodle boy getting actually hurt and immediately just whining about it, they give the whole thing a sense of fun that's really hard not to like The other Jackie Chan principle is that the environment where people are fighting should matter.

The obvious solution is to make a wand out of cardboard and fight back with your own plausible deniability magic.

Dieting Hippo posted:I've got my theory on that, The Scepter of Death's simulation only simulates a ~6 light year radius sphere around it. Because the stars themselves are not simulated giving light off, the light that was traveling within the simulation at the time it started runs out at the 5y 318d mark. If its reasonably earthlike, wouldn't a few of the nearest stars still be visible?

Pacifist magic only allows you to cause the deaths of little things, and in the past spells bave resulted in the scepter being used, without Lyndon forgetting them. The only concluaion is that this entire world is miniaturized inside the gem on the scepter.

Ditocoaf posted:I thought he only lost his pacifist magic if one of his spells caused or enabled harm. Which is interpreted very broadly, but: I don't think he ever used a spell to touch the scepter or enable someone to touch the scepter, so I don't think his magic would associate itself with the scepter deaths. He first gets the scepter by candifying the sealed box it's held in. He would never have used the scepter if he didn't cast that spell.
