See, the only ones making assumptions here are you guys.Chiclo wrote:But it is relevant. If she didn't know about Maxim and saw that Shadowman died in 1999 and just assumed it was Jack, she could have been telling him about Maxim's death.ManofTheAtom wrote:If she did it was irrelevant since she didn't meet Maxim, she met Jack Dominique Boniface.Chiclo wrote:Really? They show the records that specifically say "Jack Boniface died" and not "Shadowman died"?ManofTheAtom wrote:No, the records say that Jack died. Read Unity.Chiclo wrote:The records say that Shadowman died. Not Jack.
Jedi posts gifs. And they are funny.
I'd love for this to go on forever, but I've got to go to work here in a bit.
Read the comics, the answers are there.
I just remember Elya mentioning them. And saying that Shadowman dies in 1999. Did she know about Maxim and if he survived?
Or were the records wrong about his secon name? Was his second name really Chuck but he didn't want to tell her that she got it wrong?
You're the ones assuming that there was ONE record with Jack's second name, profession, and heroic deeds, and a completely SEPARATE record that said how he died.
In all likelihood, ALL the information Elya got came from the same file.
So, since that file was right about his second name, his profession, his heroic deeds, and the song he was writing in his head at that moment, WHY would it be wrong about how he died?
The records were 80% right about who Jack was, so why would that 20% be wrong?

Can't find reference to Jack anywhere in the comic.
But more interestingly page 2 panel 3 - Geoff: There's lots of stuff messed up in the timestream cause of that war and it's up to us geomancers to set it straight
There is your proof MOTA. The timestream is messed up and nowhere does it say all problems were all sorted and all is well in the world.
but if it is all a dream as X-O says, how can any evidence be conclusive?

If the timestream was messed up, how come 81.81% of Rai #0 came true as shown?

Using no facts at all? That's impressive.Chiclo wrote:Jedi has some good points and is raising more doubt that Jack died in 1999 than you are encouraging the certainty that he did.ManofTheAtom wrote:Which means that it makes no sense at all. Jedi's just making absurb suggestions because he has no proof to support his agument, and he knows it, he just can't admit it.Chiclo wrote:Failed attempt to break up Jack and Elya.ManofTheAtom wrote:What would she have to gain by doing that?jedimarley wrote:Alright. These records you speak of. Could have Mothergod fudged these records of Jacks death knowing of Elyla's growing infatuation with him?
Makes as much sense as Chewbacca, a wookie from the planet Kashyyyk, fighting alongside the Ewoks on the forest moon of Endor.
You must like taking him at his word.
Had I known how worthless facts are here, I wouldn't have bothered to quote from one single comic.

I would ask you if you could show those inconsistancies, but I know you won't bother.Drift wrote:There are inconsistencies in the timestream. It is the ultimate get out clause. They can do whatever the *SQUEE* they want with it because history is in flux.

If Maxim died, then why do the records say that Jack died?jedimarley wrote:Don't forget Maxim.ManofTheAtom wrote:The remaining 20% was proven right in Rai #0, where it says that Shadowman died.Drift wrote:If they were only 80% right then they are not right. They either are right or they aren't.
Jack and Shadowman were the same guy

Give me examples of the inconsistancies in the timeline.Drift wrote:It tells you that there are inconsistancies in the timeline because the timestream is *SQUEE*. Rai # 0 page 2 panel 3.
Let me remind you of the rest of the passage. It goes something like "and it's up to us Geomancers to put it right"
Rai #0 is a map of the CORRECTED timeline after the Geomancers fixed it, NOT of the incorrect timeline.

If the VALIANT Universe is the world outside our window, then CNN is the the news source.

No, what I said was that the only relevant sources are those from the comics, not those found on the internet since they have no bearing on the sources used by the characters in the stories.Drift wrote:It isn't irrelevant because that is from the real world. It is an actual piece of history because the document has been made. You said saying fiction is not a way to explain things so he is using something that really exists
Unlike the sources Grg is using, every souce of information in the VALIANT Universe was proven RIGHT. I've already posted multiple examples of this before, and he knows I have, and he knows that they exist. He also knows that he's either too lazy to find any source from the comics to counter what I showed him or he knows that they don't exist.
It's much easier to be an *SQUEE* and be lazy, than it is to actually open the comics to read what's in them.
It's not that surprising since most people on the board are in it for the economic benefit, not for the stories. They'd be fools to damage their investment by reading it.
