  1. Actually the board is a multi-purpose one; it has to be able to represent any game that can fit in a 14 Ã 10. That's why I can't customize it too much, or even checker it; Shogi can be played here, but the bard is not checkered there. I have played a game already! See the score. (Please note: the game is written in algerbraic notation.)

Let's see: The regular one, the Berolina one, the Chinese one, the Weak one, the Quick one, the Steward... I'm out.
  2. Letters added for quick and easy reference. [a] Our given fauna here obviously won't support any atmosphere over about 15 atm, as it would squash most creatures into a pancake (or at least very squat and wide). I think I can fudge it all the way up to 6, maybe 6.5? As for air loss over time, you pretty much got this right. You handle atmospheres very well, I say. I'm always worried about the pegasi and their cloud-manipulating. Truly, it's kind of hard to drag clouds -- ever tried to bring a piece of fog with you? -- which means that a lot of the effects are going to be laid up on our poor little magnon, a subatomic particle that replaces the electron for magical purposes. More on that when I actually finished a part of it. However, axial tilt seems irrelevant to eclipses. Please refer to this diagram: Wot, no spoiler tags? If the orbits of the Earth and Moon (or in this case, Ponya and Yuet) are to be perfectly aligned (or to within perhaps 50', as the moon is 30' wide) then eclipses will happen more often. Although, that may mean that they lose a lot of the mystique among the locals, which may be a bad thing. [c] I too was a tad worried about the shallow seas and how they may be broken at times to create a world-continent that is significantly different from a supercontinent, but then, that may be the charm! By opening and closing land roads, we can allow crossings and biodiversity redistribution (mixing will reduce earthly biodiversity; separation will increase aquatic biodiversity). It may (must?) be a hot period now, which means it's now time for land animals to diversify themselves. In the end though, I'm pretty sure we'd have a relatively flat (compared to Earth) abyssal plains with enormously tall platforms coming up from it. It also supports the age of Ponya: old planets have more land due to aboveḡround weathering. ---- [d] Now: a global map! I originally proposed Equestria to sit somewhere down that dotted line there in "Haysia" (still novice pun master...) but with the current data I cannot be sure. You would notice that already, I'm filling in what the terrain might look like from space.
  3. I set the atmospheric pressure to 2.5 atm. Here's how I did it: The great bustard, the heaviest bird on Earth, weighs 21 kg. I guessed each pony to be about 30 ~ 40 kg. 21/40 = 2.025, so I played it safe and multiplied air pressure by 2.5. I think the max cap of how much air a planet can hold is close to Titan, an airmoon with 1.45 atm. Because Titan is 0.404 times the mass of the Earth, I guess that a planet with as much gravity as Earth/Ponya is 1.45÷0.404 ≈3.58 atm, which is the absolute maximum. Deep time will bleed the planet of its air.
  4. This is it. I finished my article on Ponya, the semi-realistic planet for Equestria to sit on. It looks glorious. A bit of background: after reading Planetocopia, I am rather interested in making everything make a little bit of sense. Now I have recognise one fault in Equestria: where's the rest of the planet? That's when I started filling in the form, doing the maths, and working on a lot of factors, until it finally worked more or less. I actually made a national map of Equestria at one point, which I may or may not post, due to incompatibility. Anyway, enough blabbering.
  5. Hey there Clickity! Yeah, before anyone else tells you, there's a couple of notes you might want to pay attention to here. Also, fellow Homestuck fan here!
  6. Oh, and I forgot: I made a physical board out of this one.
  7. The Derpy Drawing is over $2000.00! Now, earlier I calculated the price-per-square-foot like it's an apartment (because quite frankly it's doing what apartments do -- inflate incessantly). I'm going to do this: Input "(US$2001/(12.5 in. * 10.5 in.)) in HK$/ft^2" into WolframAlpha, and then... HK$17074.73 per square foot (Hong Kong dollars per foot squared) (at current quoted rate) I only slept through a night! Other currency conversions... JPY | ¥182349.03 per square foot (Japanese yen per foot squared) EUR | euro1524.64 per square foot (euros per foot squared) CNY | yuan14260.44 per square foot (Chinese yuan per foot squared) KRW | \:20a92.372 million per square foot (Korean won per foot squared) TWD | NT$63639.94 per square foot (Taiwan dollars per foot squared) SGD | $2723.09 per square foot (Singapore dollars per foot squared) USD | $2195/ft^2 (US dollars per square foot) CAD | C$2095.60 per square foot (Canadian dollars per foot squared) MXN | $25582.78 per square foot (Mexican pesos per foot squared)

    Hi!

    As it happens, I have the skeleton. Maybe we'll go and develop it further later on.
  9. As it happens, I managed to juggle between H/S and MLP. It was the MSPA fandom that got me over here, after all.

    Hi!

    Yes, shipping is tons of fun. I'm working on a Flutterdash fanfic, and thinking of a TwilightxPinkie fanfic Maybe when we get enough, I'll make a shipping diagram.
  11. When I tried the test, it got IN??, but the other two numbers are so small (12 and 1!) that I got to say, I could be ambivalent in these cases.
  12. Fuh, you'll make my brain explode. :S Not that I don't mind reading, but if something feels too overwhelming I might shy away from it. Well, I'd recommend you reading up on the The Index first. It'd make getting around (or at least understanding what this thing is) a lot easier.
  13. Small nitpicky things: there's a cedilla under the K, ķ. It doesn't matter all that much, though! (I have to make my own keyboard to accommodate this and so many other special characters...) ---- Oo! I have too many aliases. Let us count the ways... [*:3nkxnhbb]Iso (The International Standards Organization variant) by a majority; [*:3nkxnhbb]Isor (The Ambiguous Rhotic-end variant); [*:3nkxnhbb]Isora (The Hairdryer variant), by a ~20% proportion; [*:3nkxnhbb]Isoraq (The Ira* variant) by a very small niche of people; I can't remember most of them but this shortening does exist; [*:3nkxnhbb]Isoraqa (The Continued Pyramid variant) only once, and followed by "dude". Memory evades who exactly said that; [*:3nkxnhbb]Isorakathingy [description wisely avoided]; [*:3nkxnhbb]Isoraķaþeð (The Misused Thorn variant) is a mistake but I glossed over it sometime; and [*:3nkxnhbb]Isoraqathedh OR Isoraķatheð (The Proper variant) rare but happens. Mostly by quoters and those who have character map. [*:3nkxnhbb]Isoraquathedh (The Affected by English variant) see above. Also affects any Xaxex trying to pronounce "q" and even most speakers. (Direct copy-pasted and adapted.) ---- Yup, that's my old 1.* thread all right. Now that you'd mentioned MSPA forums, I have a presence there too, and my current art thread is here. ---- If you're interested in my conworlds/langs/whatever, you can see that I also have a wiki where you can see everything I have done. You will notice that a lot of things are not filled in and it needs to be massively expanded, despite 100 pages of stuff.
  14. You know something? There is something called a griffin in Chess, except it's more often spelled Gryphon in that context. It moves like a Ferz one time, and then continues in a Rook direction. Link to moveset. Because of that, it's worth more than a Rook, so why not make it a Rook-piece (placed on a1, k1)? Luna would be equally weak, and I'm probably not lying about a Day; it is nAnD, a non-jumping Alibaba. (Compare it to a Knight and see what I mean.) She's bound to one square in four. Anyway, we now have four or five potential pieces; I'll dream up a couple and put on a list later.
  15. Because there's only enough room for 7. Unless you want her as a promotee... (Extra irony: Celestia's a hobbled Knight; Luna may be a hobbled Day.)
  16. As I said elsewhere, wherever I go I drop a chess variant. This here is MilpFim Chess, because I like pronouncing acronyms all silly. â•â€Ââ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╤â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╤â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╤â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╤â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╤â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╤â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╤â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╤â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╤â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╤â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╤â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ• 8 â•‘ a ââ€Â‚â–“râ–“ââ€Â‚ f ââ€Â‚▓À▓ââ€Â‚ i ââ€Â‚â–“tâ–“ââ€Â‚ c ââ€Â‚â–“iâ–“ââ€Â‚ À ââ€Â‚â–“fâ–“ââ€Â‚ r ââ€Â‚â–“aâ–“â•‘ â•Ÿââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â€â•¢ 7 â•‘â–“pâ–“ââ€Â‚ p ââ€Â‚â–“pâ–“ââ€Â‚ p ââ€Â‚â–“pâ–“ââ€Â‚ p ââ€Â‚â–“pâ–“ââ€Â‚ p ââ€Â‚â–“pâ–“ââ€Â‚ p ââ€Â‚â–“pâ–“ââ€Â‚ p â•‘ â•Ÿââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â€â•¢ 6 â•‘ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“â•‘ â•Ÿââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â€â•¢ 5 â•‘â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ â•‘ â•Ÿââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â€â•¢ 4 â•‘ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“â•‘ â•Ÿââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â€â•¢ 3 â•‘â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ ââ€Â‚â–“â–“â–“ââ€Â‚ â•‘ â•Ÿââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â€â•¢ 2 â•‘ P ââ€Â‚â–“Pâ–“ââ€Â‚ P ââ€Â‚â–“Pâ–“ââ€Â‚ P ââ€Â‚â–“Pâ–“ââ€Â‚ P ââ€Â‚â–“Pâ–“ââ€Â‚ P ââ€Â‚â–“Pâ–“ââ€Â‚ P ââ€Â‚â–“Pâ–“â•‘ â•Ÿââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â¼ââ€Âۉâ€Âۉâ€Â€â•¢ 1 â•‘â–“Aâ–“ââ€Â‚ R ââ€Â‚â–“Fâ–“ââ€Â‚ Πââ€Â‚â–“Iâ–“ââ€Â‚ T ââ€Â‚â–“Câ–“ââ€Â‚ I ââ€Â‚▓Π▓ââ€Â‚ F ââ€Â‚â–“Râ–“ââ€Â‚ A â•‘ â•šâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╧â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╧â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╧â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╧â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╧â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╧â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╧â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╧â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╧â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╧â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂ╧â•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ•ÂÂâ• a b c d e f g h i j k l I have given the main characters a place on the chess board, basically.

  17. Well, that, and maybe also , , Sb, Ne and Fire.

  19. Hi! This was also one of the ways I came in, but it took a couple of other elements to come in.
  20. Hey, so I guess I should drag this in. A lot of my stuff is indexed. In this place, you would notice that a lot of these index starts with 4.05.*, because that's the dedicated number for MLP stuff. I'm also writing up the Chess Variant and when the time comes I'll post it over.
  21. Wow, it'd take a while to see what permissions I have and which ones I don't have. In the meantime, I'd be a bit busy laying out the planet statistics for Ponya.
  22. How long does one take to have a signature? It doesn't seem to be an immediate thing.
  23. If you're not sure what that is, it's your old Pseudoan greeting. It doesn't matter all that much. Well, what can I say? I'm Isoraķatheð, amateur-novice conlanger, conworlder, musician, author and maybe chess-variant-maker. Every time I get hooked on something, I will inevitably make something out of these , well, occupations. In fact, I have already finished MilpFim Chess and made a semi-functioning planet for Equestria to live in. I may post this later! For now, I'll just get the feel.
