Say whatever you want, but try to talk about stuff rather than just being a complete and utter goof. Keep in mind that while this thread has no official topic and there is no character minimum here

Wanna know something? This is how I write on other forum sites:

 

 

 

I had an 8C D2 in mind, but never gotten to texturing it; It'd clearly be more to your taste, and would make for another hole to fill. There is a mirror image of the same piece, which would also make sense for half of the piece... I see the validity of having a merge zone before or further down the line, but...

 

The most obvious problem with "Shiftling" ramps is that they're hard to modularise to achieve half-and-half setups (half and half 6C A2 Half-Shift and 8C D2 Half-Shift, 6C D1 Half-Shift and 6C A2 Half-Shift). Compared to its S-network brothers, 6S ramps accompanied with 8S ramps are infinitely modular. Currently, there's two Shift-type Ramps available: The 6C D1 Shift and 6C D1 Inner Shift, both of which are perfectly symmetrical in regards of lane count.

 

To make it all modular, you'd need to "cut up" a bunch of different ramp interfaces, which would quickly lead to the old-school MIS all over again. Of course, if it were a Flex setup, it would be more or less of a cakewalk to modularise and ease the burden of having an excessively large tab ring, but it exceeds the 5x5 INRUL footprint, and would need a lot of RUL-2 code. At best, it's more theoretical than doable right now.

 

And by the time all of this diagonalisation is done, diagonal crossing puzzle pieces will be totally obsolete. :) Another tab ring gone.

There is something else I wanna point out about the idea of having an RHW-(X)S A2 exit ramp and an accompanying RHW-(X+2) A2 entrance ramps. Disregarding the current complications with C-networks, if you take that idea further to apply to every width of RHW, you'll get the following pairs:

 

- RHW-4 and MIS

- RHW-6S and RHW-4

- 8S and 6S

- 8S and 10S

- 10S and 12S

 

However, if you tried to make it so that the 12S has an accompanying RHW-(X+2) network, that would mean a 14S. An Ultra-wide. It almost seems that this is why the "oldspeak" RHW-4 C-ramp was named as an RHW-4 ramp, despite it having a 6S mainline network.

 

Regarding an Ultra-wide the same way a TuLEP would be, it doesn't sound impossible to integrate, but there would need to be further discussions regarding all other Ultra-wides.

Versus to how I write in terms of literature:

 

After about an hour of searching through all of the usual places, such as Sugarcube Corner or Carousel Boutique, Ganaram stopped at the last place he expected his friends to be at: Twilight’s library.

 

And, truly indeed, he was right as he could hear their voices as he entered the tree-like structure: A green-coated earth pony stallion with a vividly blue mane and a grey-coated unicorn stallion with an equally-grey mane, but with a red streak.

 

Electrobolt and Jade were their names; Two ponies who befriended Ganaram after his first arrival at Ponyville. Electrobolt was standing upon Jade’s back, trying to reach for a book that Electrobolt was after:

 

“... Just a little higher, man...”

 

“Any more and you’ll break my spine.”

 

“C’mon, Jade, just a little more...”

 

Amusing was the situation that the two ponies were in, but not so much to Ganaram; He just found it somewhat awkward to watch two ponies stacked one upon another trying to reach a book. To him, it was more of a “How many ponies does it take to screw up a lightbulb” kind of situation...

 

“I... I think I got it.”

 

... And Ganaram felt like he needed to interject:

 

“Hey!!!”

 

The sudden reaction to Ganaram’s voice was enough to upset the balance of the two stacked ponies, and they both fell down in a giant cascade of books onto the floor. Ganaram replied:

 

“I thought I’d find you here, because I couldn’t find you anywhere else.”

 

The unicorn, half-buried in books and half-buried in Electrobolt, responded:

 

“Great,... Now can you help us out?”

 

Ganaram replied:

 

“Well, I really wish I could, but I have to get something over at--”

 

The voice of a mare cut off Ganaram’s statement from right behind; It was Twilight, annoyed by the mess of books that Ganaram induced:

 

“You’d better, or else...”

 

“I mean, uhh,... Of course I will...”

Whenever I try to play Simcity 4 on my potato, a lagfest always ensues... And to think we were talking about concentric potatoes in multivariate calculus...

Oh, did you know if you reverse the statement "Say yes", you get the same statement back? It's like Wii U, JoJ, SuS, No one, WoW, and LoL, and MoM.

Anything else I can talk about, other than RPs (because that's never gonna happen...)?

 

Feh. I can never remember the r63 names :

But thanks.

 

Rainbow Blitz, Elusive, Applejack, Dusk Shine/Shimmer, Bubble Berry, Butterscotch. Don't ask me how I know; I just do.

I can recognize a pimp when I see one, and holy damn that one is a strong pimp

 

I know. But that's what they named him.

Solaris is a cool name, though
