Could always wish you were a mantis shrimp

Probably wouldn't help; apparently there are reports that say that mantis shrimp's 16-dimensional colour space is a disadvantage where seeing even the simplest things becomes a chore.

Certain birbs and insects can see ultraviolet, though it also means you're probably seeing an ultraviolet haze all around you equivalent to how the sky is blue and your effective render distance is substantially lowered. (What if Silverstream, Gallus, and maybe Ocellus wrote a secret message in ultraviolet?)

EDIT: Assuming griffon is raptor plus big cat, Gallus wouldn't be able to see much UV if at all, unless it turns out that cats can also UV...

Yeah. it doesn't see colours the way we do - rather than processing into a single colourspace, it sees each channel independently. On the plus side, on top of the 16 colour channels, it can also detect polarized light (linear or circular) and can focus on three things independently - per eye.  Humans have yet to make anything even a fraction as complex - so, as usual, it is a case of Mother Nature taking a look at human ingenuity and saying "hold my beer a minute guys, I'VE GOT THIS....."

Hmm. So, why are the CMC already together in S01E01 if they don't meet until E12?

Probably because the plots of later episodes weren't written yet. Episodes 1 and 2 were pilots so a lot of the time with pilots they don't actually expect a series to be picked up.

So, uhh, this happened...

This is the 2th skillcape I ever got. Took me just under 11 years considering I first started playing Runescape in February 2008. (The prayer cape I got about six months ago and I have a screenshot of that, too; DXPW helped a lot there, as much of a lagfest it was on the most crowded worlds.)

Ah well, its near the end of the week. Was there any news? I remember you were worried about a role change...

*hands the grey pone a fresh coffee*

[Longhaul 6,470]

*gratefully accepts the coffee*

No changes.  It has, however, been a crazy week, and I'm glad it's almost over.  If I can stay awake through tonight, I'll be fine.

Well, no news is good news then. Hope the coffee helps

[Longhaul 6,470]

We'll see.  If it gets to be too much, I'll leave early.   Fridays usually wrap up quick anyway.

I have an account I don't play, as previously stated - but nowhere near a skillcape in anything.

I don't get anything - as I don't have any skillcapes
