I don't think the EVA suit that Alex was wearing made much use of zippers.
I never implied that it did. I was referring to them not cutting him out of his jumpsuit.

Re: Page 150 Discussion "Well, I haven't !"

What I want to know is why did the EVA unit get cut off but everything else was left in tact? He was suffocating, so they cut his suit open. That done, the emergency was over. Even if they had felt the need to cut him out of his clothes, they would have been fairly straightforward to repair. An ali...

Re: WIP Discussion (Part 1!)

I really gotta appreciate how what the characters are wearing really shows the dichotomy of both parties tech level here. I always have but now I've figured out what it reminds me of. It looks exactly like the pictures I see of US troops standing next to indigenous middle eastern soldiers. On the on...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread

I suspect that if humans are still around in 100 years, all the pop culture involving space soldiers running around doing important things with future rifles is going to look as campy as the pop culture involving space knights running around doing important things with laser swords. I feel that thi...

Re: WIP Discussion (Part 1!)

The fist bump does remind me of that thing that friends do where they mock insult each other, which ends up being effectively a sign of trust that someone can be unguarded around their peers. I wonder how the Loroi would react to the mock insults. Even to outside human observers this practice can b...

Re: Up coming games

I understand the motion sickness angle. Games since Half-Life 2 and onwards have all given me that feeling, though it's curiously not a problem with older games or slower paced stuff like MMO's. Since we're confessing about games we've never played, I couldn't get past Bioshock's introductory level...

Re: WIP Discussion (Part 1!)

Some people think it is a tradition that come from ancient times when people would check to make sure the other wasn't armed, but there is some evidence that it is also used to transfer personally identifying smells. I think its not checking that others are armed so much as you are putting the hand...

Re: Pages 114, 115, 116

I just noticed that Talon apparently misunderstood him. He said, she could call him "Ensign", which she apparently understood as "Enzin"? Does she think that is his name? It was explained before that ensign was his rank, I would think Beryl would have spread that around. Enzin is probably an accent...

Its also not a combat vehicle. So having a massive and unobstructed view of the shuttles immediate surroundings is entirely unnecessary.

Re: Confederations

The south was mostly agricultural while the north was shifting to Industrial. I would estimate the north would have likely had greater population as well since people in history tend to move toward centers of industry since that's where the jobs are plentiful. Could be wrong on that point. I have he...

Re: [Fan Fiction] The pale horse (Updated: 04/25/2016)

Then you CLEARLY do not understand what the word confederation means. Notice the word Federation exists with in it? The US government is a Federated government. During the US civil war the rebels had a Confederated Government. It generally implies a very weak central authority and a very strong loca...

Re: [Fan Fiction] The pale horse (Updated: 03/02/2016)

I think a confederation is the direction the TCA was actually heading in cannon. And why would it be an upgraded feudal society? The USA was a confederation before the constitution was written.
