Shadow's right, Tony. Do NOT watch that disk. I'll watch it myself, and see what's up with that. I'm already working on re-warding my comp.

Kon-Tiki, I want to be there when you watch that... I've got much stronger personal defences than you do, all things concidered.

KonThaak · Post by **KonThaak** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 1:25 am

Much appreciated. I checked the tracking on it; it'll be here tomorrow... I may or may not be off. I'll give you a call if I am.

Don't worry about me Shades, i've got a nice circle of protection drawn up and...wait a sec, how did I know how to draw up the protection circle.

Anywho, i'm just gonna finish up some other preparations and then I plan on watching that disk.

Thankfully, I can still travel. I know it's cheap, but using the Astral to pop between locations speeds up travel times very well.

You need to teach me that trick Adama.

You know, based on what I've heard of the Astral Plane, I'll keep my boots on the ground.

AdamaGeist · Post by **AdamaGeist** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 1:59 am

Concidering what I've learned of the Astral Plane, I'd have to say you're wise in that decision, Bert.

As much as I'd like to see Tabitha more often, i'll stick to Earth. :wink:

Shadowstalker · Post by **Shadowstalker** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 2:08 am

She took you on trips through the Dream Stream mostly, a very differant place than the Astral Bert.

Bert_the_Turtle · Post by **Bert_the_Turtle** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 2:11 am

Yes, I know that. I also know the two are closely connected and that going to one means hitting the other eventually.

Shadowstalker · Post by **Shadowstalker** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 4:07 am

There are points where you can pass from one to the other, this is true but they are still vary differant places.
I am getting the feeling you spent more time with Tabitha than I thought there Bert?

Are you a little exposed while astral though?

Bert_the_Turtle · Post by **Bert_the_Turtle** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 11:42 am

I've been studying in my spare time.

Kolya · Post by **Kolya** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 12:39 pm

So is that a 'yes'?

Bert_the_Turtle · Post by **Bert_the_Turtle** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 12:42 pm

Come see the stack of books cluttering my home and decide for yourself.

Kolya · Post by **Kolya** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 12:47 pm

I think this thread is cursed. It prevents people from giving me answers or something for a while.

I will just go smack one of our guys around, and have him explain it to me in Russian.

Kolya · Post by **Kolya** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 1:19 pm

Wow. Sounds like you got rid of the discs just in time.

Too bad about the others though.

Shadowstalker · Post by **Shadowstalker** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 1:22 pm

Don't smack anyone to hard Kolya. In answer to your question thou yes most people when hey enter the Astral are a little exposed.
In the Case of those who use Astral Projection they take nothing with them but their own ablities, and you have to worry about your silver cord as well. In answer to the obvious next question of "what is a Silver Cord?". The Answer is a link between your physical body and your projection, and it is a weak point that if cut, and it can be cut. will seperate you from your body to a point of not being able to find it again. End result you are dead. It is possible even if the cord is cut that you could find and return to your body but it normally requires help.
Walking into the Astral physically is an option but it also has dangers. First off is can you walk back out. There are points where one can cross from our world to the astral plane without need of a third party wizard or such but they are dangerous, as sometimes they are one way.
There are Items that can allow passage as well but they can also be a danger particularly if you lose it.
Oh and the last bit if you go into the Astral physically most normal weaons won't work there, at least with out some meta-physical tweaking.
Does this answer some of your Questions Kolya?

That covers it pretty good, thanks Shadowstalker.

Holister · Post by **Holister** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 2:02 pm

Tony, hi, and your a horse's ass if you think the stuff that goes on here isn't real.

I have been a member here for a few months now, I have seen shit that goes way beyond explantion. Usually those things have alot of teeth and claws and want to eat misguided eggheads like for breakfast.

Kolya · Post by **Kolya** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 2:05 pm

Am I walking on water yet?

Shadowstalker · Post by **Shadowstalker** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 2:07 pm

No not yet Kolya, but you may float a bit better.

Shadowstalker · Post by **Shadowstalker** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 4:16 pm

Just realized I missed a comment from Tony. Tony if you still have the remains of those disks I would like to look at them. I may be able to tell you and others what was on them? KT i am going to be in the area if you still wish to watch that disk I would like to be there as well if you don't mind?

GhostSpider · Post by **GhostSpider** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 5:36 pm

Whoohoo, kegger at KT's house!!! :lol:

Just kidding.

Your disk arrived today Tony. I still intend to view it. Jusst need to find the time.

Shadowstalker · Post by **Shadowstalker** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 5:38 pm

Saves KT the time and swats GhostSpider upside the head. SWAP!!!

Ron Caliburn · Post by **Ron Caliburn** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 7:47 pm

So just to repeat the most important thing said in a few pages

DON'T VIEW THE DISKS!

Shadowstalker · Post by **Shadowstalker** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 8:49 pm

I am going to assume that is ment for anyone thinking about checking on the disk? What about my idea of checking on the remains of the disks Tony fried?

Kei Nakamura · Post by **Kei Nakamura** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 9:02 pm

What about decrypt, decompile, and analyze? I already have the thing started in a system that should be able to seperate the individual layers of data, display them in binary, hexidecimal, ect. Do I need to start looking for a new lab computer?

If I find anything odd with the data I will of course be requesting an analysis by specialists.

Kolya · Post by **Kolya** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 9:10 pm

binary death.

Be very careful. And consider burning it all down right now.

Kei Nakamura · Post by **Kei Nakamura** » Fri Apr 27, 2007 9:25 pm

the silver and cold iron glyphs, sigils and runes in that thing cost me a small fortune, are you certain that will be necessary?
