  1. You add one onto the level requirement from the previous requirement so the level req from body to cosmic is 7 from cosmic to chaos is 8 from chaos to nature is 9 from nature to law is 10 from law to death is 11 from death to blood is 12 and from blood to soul is 13 so soul crafting should be at level 90.
  2. The barman in Canifis says that Lord Drakan's castle is to the South-West. Not exactly sure how far to the South-West though. With the abyss anyhow it won't really matter how close it is to the bank. I wouldn't even dream of going directly to the Death altar to craft deaths without abyss.
  3. I can remember Paul claiming that the 'honestly' was actually meant to be 'honestly we are working on carpentry' and not 'honestly it will come out at the end of the year'.
  4. Well it's known that the blood altar will eventually come out and I was begining to think that the blood altar could be associated with Lord Drakan's house in Morytania (with vampires being associated with blood). The Devious Minds quest is the start of a multipart storyline much like the multipart story line in Ardounge leading to death crafting so I was thinking it may eventually lead to the opening of Drakan's castle and/or blood crafting.
  5. Tip.it Homeworlds If you are interested in meeting fellow tipit users in-game then why not use one of our Homeworlds. The Tipit Homeworlds are an entirely optional way of meeting people who also use Tipit. The general idea is that the majority of Tipit users will use these worlds on a regular basis and this will hopefully increase the chance of them seeing one another in-game. [*:tm56h8s4]The Tipit Homeworld for F2P is World 7 [*:tm56h8s4]The Tipit Homeworld for P2P is World 99Using these worlds is entirely optional and i'm sure some people will have reasons for not using these worlds but knowing other Tipit users in-game will hopefully make a much more friendly community within Tipit. Tip.It Team Cape Want to easily be recognized by fellow Tip.It'ers? Then wear the official Tip.it Team Cape! [*:tm56h8s4]The Tip.It Team Cape is: Team 39 - Green.[hide=How to get your Tip.it Team cape!]All you need is 50 gp. If you are worried about dieing in the wild (not much of a problem anymore) then only bring the money! Here is a map to Simon: [/hide] Visit this thread for more information: !~The Official Tip.It Team Cape~Team 39-Green~Post Pics Here~!
  6. At my university the lights automatically turn on when you walk in and turn off when you walk out. Motion sensor on the door or something i'm guessing.
  7. This has got into a discussion about aliens actually visiting earth which is more fantasy than fact. I think he meant alien lifeforms outside our planet. Discussing aliens visiting our planet is just silly.
  8. Yes definetly in the Universe and I would say maybe in our galaxy as well (intelligent life that is). The easiest way of an alien detecting us is if the aliens cast a radio telescope upon our solar system and it would show extremely high radio transmissions coming from a rather average star. Although the aliens would have to be within around 100 light years of Earth for them to detect it as global use of radio started around 100 years ago and as radiowaves are just like light except with a lower wavelength they travel at the same speed as light. We tried using the same technique to detect aliens but we haven't found anything but that's most likely because if there were aliens out there they'd move onto lasers etc instead of radio as it's much more efficient at transmitting. Europa is thought to have a huge ocean underneath 1 mile thick sheet of ice, kept warm by a molten outer core which rotates around the inner crystal core. They even crashed Gallileo into Jupiter deliberately so as not to contaminate Europa. Imagine if they sent a probe to Europa, drilled through the 1 mile thick of ice and sent a submarine into the ocean and it got eaten by a huge sea monster... now that would be a good movie.
  9. Well apart from being possibly dangerous I definately don't see how this would even be viable. All that the sun is emitting is electro-magnetic radiation, cosmic rays and solar wind. The solar wind and cosmic rays are protected by our atmosphere but the electro-magnetic radiation (infrared, light, ultraviolet light etc) do not contain nutrition. Plants and cyanobacteria are the only organisms which can convert energy out of the electromagnetic radiation using chlorophyll and we don't have chlorophyll. The plants only get nutrients from the soil. By saying that it only works by looking at the sun suggests we have chlorophyll in our eyes and only in our eyes; we don't.
  10. Sounds like a good spell however I think magic already has enough weird spells like entangle and teleblock. It would make mage too good maybe have it at 95 - 99 magic.
  11. Right, and in any case, just this theory doesn't provide any way to predict which features will dominate, simply because the environment and the species are too complex to make any logical conclusion out. So my original point remains - the theory of evolution doesn't predict anything. Yep the main reason it's unpredictable is because it's totally random; meiosis and mutations occuring within genes are entirely random. There are many ways of becoming a different species for all we know dolphins could of evolved a biological outboard motor. We can't predict such things because they are entirely random. However although you cannot describe what a future species may look like and what features they will have you can assume where and how a species could develop. My personal assumption is that there would be a new species developing from humans on different planets such as Mars if and when we colonize it I mentioned this in another post but because of isolation from Earth and Mars the two groups of humans don't interbreed and due to different factors on Mars natural selection occurs after millions of years on mars and causes a new species of human to evolve. It's also possible that technology will stop this from happening though.
  12. No, that is something more to do with supply and demand. I think. :? Natural Selection is when something like a bird, adapts itself to a changing enviroment. For instance, if a type of bird kept getting eaten while it was sleeping at night - that species might adapt themselves to become nocturnal. Evolution would happen when a species has to adapt so much...they evolve into a different species of animal. Theoretically its how humans came to be. Actually, adaptation isn't entirely the right word for the process. The genes of a species as a whole don't change, it's mutation in the individual genomes that cause evolution. The most adapted genes will be passed on and become dominant, the least adapted genes will die out. The species as a whole doesn't evolve, it's the mutation of the individual genome that makes the difference. Right, and eventually the whole species changes. And eventually, the species changes into another species. I don't understand how what you said is any different than what I did. You just used bigger words to say exactly what I did. :roll: Your explanation sounded like the species adapted to its surroundings by doing something throughout its life to bring about the change. Also you should note that Natural Selection does not involve Speciation; the separation of sub-species. An example of evolution is the early dolphin when it developed it's fins because a mutation caused one dolphin to have a deformity - a primitive fin. This 'deformity' allowed it to swim better and catch more fish for it's offspring and ensured it's success. This mutant could create much more offspring then the others and it's 'deformity' was passed on to it's siblings. This occured much much more over the millions of years and created what is now known as a dolphin. This happened all over the planet with all species and that is what evolution is.
  13. This board is only for non-runescape talk, use the help and advice board for questions relating to RuneScape or the graveyard help and advice board.
  14. Yep runesmithie sent the correct link.
  15. Just found an interesting article on wikipedia about how the human species - H.Sapiens were thought to be heading towards a more aquatic life, much like dolphins did when they were land mammals. It occured in South Africa about 300,000 years ago when two groups of our ancestors; H.erectus were split up and isolated. One of the unproven facts was that we were developing into an aquatic mammal like dolphins and whales, with early humans (still as H.erectus) living near the sea with large tidal currents. This caused speciation to occur as the other Homo erectus group headed for dryer plains whilst the other group headed for the swamps and seas. There's many reasons why we are believed to of been heading for a more aquatic life; [*:3alr4rjp]We have little or no hair compared to other species of land mammal. When dolphins and whales evolved to live in the sea they lost their hair as well. [*:3alr4rjp]We have the ability to breath in sharply and hold our breath (manual overide of an autonomic process of breathing). Very few species can actually hold their breath. [*:3alr4rjp]Compared to other species we have 10 times more fat than the average land mammal. This is thought to be the early development of blubber as lots of other sea mammals have. [*:3alr4rjp]Human babies have a protective film around them making them waterproof and the umbilical cord can actually feed a human baby with oxygen allowing them to breath underwater so long as they are still attached via the umbilical cord. Also the normal human mating procedure is much like the mating of 2 dolphins or sea mammals and not like our other ape ancestors. [*:3alr4rjp]The human brain requires omega-3 fatty acids to function properly the only known source of omega-3 fatty acids in natural surroundings is in oily fish. [*:3alr4rjp]Sweating and tears are also mainly in humans and not in any of the other primates. The reason for sweating and crying is not only to cool down but to lose excess salts from absorption of sea water. This is a very much unproven theory and as there's no proof (mainly because waters and the tides do not preserve bones well) it has been disregarded. I still thought it was quite interesting though, interesting enough to post on tipit anyhow :s
  16. My opinions on religion have been mostly good however I in know way believe in such a thing. Religion accounts for alot of charitable work and tradition which surrounds a religion, for example christmas in christian countrys creates a happy mood for everyone regardless of whether they believe in it or not. Evolution is based on fact and therefore is the most reasonable explanation for our origins. Religion would have a very good place in explaining the unexplainable in physics. For example religion could be used to explain what happened before the big bang what is the outcome of our universe and extra terrestrial life. However religion can only explain the unexplainable until it becomes explainable through science. Because most of the leading religions today were forged in a time when little was known about the world, the origins of life were explained through religion because there was no proof otherwise, however now that they've been explained through evidence and fact people are still clinging onto these old views of origin even when the truth is still staring them in the face. The reason I see why people would pay so much ignorance to fact is because they've been taught the religion at a very young and impressionable age. Below the age of 5 the human mind is still at a very suseptable state and thus if an adult comes up to a child and tells them something is true and taught as if it is fact then that child will grow up to believe in such a thing regardless of how unproven it is.
  17. After violin which I already play I would say piano - playing the piano would allow you to play the synth, accordion to a certain extent, organ, keyboard and any other instrument which has a piano type interface.
  18. Wow i really thought alot about this, Uhm, this is silly but, I'm positive that we will have telekenetic powers, some people claim to have them, maybe they have just evolved, and we are all slowly beginning to? - I put this in a bad way, i dont really have time. Your putting science (evolution) with fiction (telekinesis). I don't see where the energy comes from to move an object by electrical impulses in the brain. Evolution doesn't keep making us better until we have superhuman abilities all evolution does is make us adapted to the surroundings we live in long enough for us to reproduce.
  19. I think alot of newer fillings are made of glass and powedered resin these days which aren't metal at so it won't work. It will only work if it's a mercury filling against aluminium.
  20. Not sure if anyones done this before but if you've ever had a filling and for whatever reason you've eaten foil (it's bound to happen through the course of your life) you get quite an extreme pain at where the filling is. I was quite curious as to why this happened and it actually works with any metallic element supposedly the filling (normally mercury) acts as a battery. The alumnium foil and the saliva in between the foil and mercury filling causes electrons to pass from the aluminum straight through the saliva because of the salts in the saliva, into the filling and straight into the nerve and as your body works upon electrical signals the brain interprets the electric signal as pain. But yeh for those of you which haven't put a metal on a filling I wouldn't recommend it, I think it might just be aluminium though and not all metals.
  21. I had a filling once but I decided not to have local anasthetic and that was quite painful especially when the drill went near the nerve.
  22. If you want a topic locking quicker PM the a mod about providing a link to the topic.
  23. Max speed today a manned space craft has got up to is 40,000 km/h. If for example we invented some new type of engine, say antimatter propulsion or nuclear fusion propulsion it wouldn't really increase the speed much - would save a lot in terms of fuel though. So lets say a normal Mars to Earth 'bus' travels at 60,000 km/h (no idea if this is the true speed of an antimatter engine). But the distance from earth to Mars is around 45 million miles so it would take a good 2 months of just travelling in space so i'd guess any travel between the 2 planets would be used only in times of real need.
  24. If the current species - h0mo sapiens survive for long enough for an evolution process to take place it certainly won't happen on earth. On earth we inhabit just about every single place and we've used our brains to adapt without any physical changes by making clothes, houses, air conditioning, cures for diseases etc. To be honest though I don't think humans are that successful, being self aware and being intelligent doesn't guarantee the success of that species. Bacteria have been around for 4.5 billion years much more intelligent species have evolved since then but have died out. If there was a new species of human to evolve it would be from the colonization of other planets. For evolution to occur there has to be isolation of the 2 groups (so that they don't interbreed) second there has to be some kind of environmental factor which influences how they live or reproduce. My guess is the next human species would be from Mars (once we colonize it). Very slight differences in atmospheric composition and gravitional differences could cause a species change considering that people wouldn't be constantly trafficked from Mars to Earth as it would take quite a while to get there.
  25. New violin just got delivered, been playing the violin for 12 years but it's the first electric violin i've played :) Suprisingly it sounds rather good considering it was much cheaper than my ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâã400 normal violin, although there is the problem of it needing to be near a guitar amp. Oh and I think it looks a little better than the normal violin.
