Hey Greg,

In previous posts, you said if BIONICLE was to come back, it wouldn't start out where you left off (Powers That Be and Yesterday Quest). However, assuming that it did come back, would you finish those stories so that people would get the transfer from those two stories into the new story?

How do we know alternate universes don't exist? There has long been a theory that every time you make a decision, another reality is created in which you made the opposite decision. That is the basis for pretty much every "what if" story out there. There is no proof that they DO exist, but there is also no proof that they don't.


But then there would be a colossal ammount of alternate dimensions, so much so that one of them would have penetrated ours in some way before now.

 

 


Yes, there would be ... a potentially infinite number. Most likely, they would vibrate at a different speed than ours, making it impossible for us to make physical contact or even be aware they are there. So 1 alt. or a million, the odds don't really go up that we would make contact with one, because the tech required to do so does not exist and probably won't until goodness knows when.


Also, these parallel universes would be in different space-time dimensions, which could mean that you can have another six Earths right on the spot where our Earth is, they would just be in different dimensions.

By the way... I didn't know you were so interested in these things Mr. Farshtey Smile, like physics, alternate universes, string theory and so on ...

An alternate dimension couldn't "penetrate" our dimension, since it wouldn't exist on the same physical plane as ours. We would have to find some way to access it ourselves, and, as Mr. Farshtey said, we don't have the technology to do that yet.

If the victoms will power is stronger than that of the shooter, will a Makuta Nynrah Ghost Blaster still work?

How much of a Bionicle's boody is mechanical?

If we might be able to acess it ourselves at one point, then it logically follows that by now a technologically advanced alternate dimension would have been able to access ours by this point. If there is an infinite number of AUs, then there would be one that is filled with beings set on destroying every other dimension. We would have collided by now.

1) Actually, what I said was, if BIONICLE came back and if it were my decision (which it would not be), we would not pick up where we left off.

 

2) Depends on if LEGO wanted me to do so, and if the new story needed a transition from the old one. Not knowing what a new story might be it would be impossible to predict.

You're assuming this civilization would even know to go looking. None of our scientists are working on tech to access parallel dimensions, so no reason to assume another dimension would be doing that. They might regard it as just a theory too.

Oh, I see...

You know, I could discuss all day about these things, but we would need another topic for that Joking

But there would be a paralell dimension where people decide to not regard it as a theory, decide to pour all that resources into paralell dimesnion resource, making the right descisions along the way. And in at the very least one world, they would decide to travel to ours.

Hello again!
So, I know that the Toa Metru never had to find Masks of a Power and, as a result, only used their default masks. But I was wondering- theoretically, since Vakama was a Mask Maker, if he had the tools and supplies could he make whatever Kanohi was needed for the team to use (i.e. making Kaukaus to do long searches under water or Haus to fend off Vahki patrols), right? I know that he did this with the Vahi so I was just wondering.
Thanks! Have a nice day!
