- My edits
- My profile at Marathon's Story Forum; to the best of my knowledge, all the posts made there under that name are mine<ref>Except that one about Wolfenstein or something that Neoptolemus made back when I was an unregistered poster; but I couldn't find that with a search in 2008, so it may have been deleted.</ref>
- My other profile; same assurance applies.
[edit] Thing(s) I'd like to know
- The Credits screen for M2 says "Story: Jason Jones, Greg Kirkpatrick", but which one was responsible for the use of the term "ansible" on Where the Twist Flops? It'd be useful to know for Wikipedia.
- We know Bungie may or may not ever try to add to the Marathon story sometime in the future, whether in a game or by some other medium. If they did, they'd probably try to get Greg Kirkpatrick on the team, or at least consult with him about stuff. If not him, they'd probably at least look for some of the other Infinity team members. But what if they couldn't get any of them? Would they stick to ports and rereleases, or make a completely non-canon story?
- Even remakes of the games would require some reinterpretation of canon.
- This question assumes that nobody currently at Bungie knows what was really going on in Infinity, which I think is generally assumed.
- Would it take more than $15 to get Bungie to GPL the Gnop! source?
[edit] Other notes
- Oni is a sex game.
- I don't actually dream about a 2D Marathon anymore.
- I think I added the apostrophe in "Who just s'phtttttt?".
- I still think making redirects to related subjects is a good way to clean up redlinks, with the possibility of filling out the pages later. For example, Steve Israelson could redirect back to Pfhorte, and Aidan Hughes back to ZPC. The question hasn't been settled as of 2008 (see also Talk:Raul Bonilla).
- I also think the page Player-character would make more sense titled "Marathon's player character", with possibly a separate page about the player as an object functions in the Marathon engine. I'll probably go back and resume both of those arguments sometime in the future.
- Wikia seems to do a lot of hosting duplicate wikis. Apparently they actually have a policy about it.
- Apparently Rubicon X was originally planned to include animated cutscenes. That might be worth incorporating into the article sometime.
- I wouldn't have deleted the redirects at Alien Weapon, artificial intelligence, Assault Rifle, Fusion Pistol, Health Canister, or Marathon Trilogy, but I've already started a thread about that at Traxus talk:Standards#Redirects.
