I’ve always wanted a thread like “The Anti Chatroom” thread, which was on MB before I got here. (https://musefanpage.com/blog/?p=86). I think it would be great, and I definitely think we should have another.

in January 12th, 2008 @ 22:02I thought the Anti-Chatroom was a good idea. It never quite worked the way it was supposed to, though, and nowadays the Incredible Morphing Chameleon Threads do pretty much the same thing. Still, GAPAs aim to please, and we’ll be happy to revive it if there’s a demand.

in January 13th, 2008 @ 07:55A friend of mine says her family used to call roadkill animals “wuzzies” — as in fuzzy-wuzzy and “what was it?”
Has anyone here read John McPhee’s long article “Travels in Georgia”? It’s in at least two of his collections, available at most libraries, and should appeal to roadkill enthusiasts.

in January 13th, 2008 @ 13:1810-*pies back* sorry, I’ve been somewhat busier this year, and I’m spending more of my internet time socializing with CTYers and sometimes spellers. (Yes, I do love MB, but those are people that I actually know but will in many cases never see again, or at least not for another 168 or 189 days.)
How about a Latin thread? I just started learning Latin a couple months ago, but I love it and I’m sure plenty of other MBers study it as well.

in January 15th, 2008 @ 14:21Oh, sorry for the double post, but I remembered what I would like a thread about.
We should have a thread about summer because it’s really miserably cold so I’ve just been sitting inside planning what I’m going to do once it’s over -12783 degrees outside.
I have a bunch of things I want to do this summer besides what we’ve planned with the family.

The Man For Aeiou
in January 23rd, 2008 @ 18:36note to the GAPAs:
in 2006, a land called museica was founded on this blog. it has ended up with more lands over time. now Agagabagabag is slowly taking the plot, if you will, over.
I feel that this ruins the fun of the land, the mystery of not knowing what is coming up next.
maybe the rest of the Blog does not agree with me. but some might.
please GAPAs, give us a new land to call our own, a museblog only land, a land to be the made of the best ideas on the blog.
when you read this, a new pie war will have started.
that pie war is based on someone’s book about there museworld life.
if you would, let us start again, a clean slat.
please.
the future of the blog depends on it.
please.
the musewolrd is collapsing

in January 25th, 2008 @ 19:07It is crazy for me to suggest a thread where people find what they think their username would look like and send in pictures? (Not real pictures of themselves, pictures/representations of their username) Like a kind of sort of
“guess what MBers look like” thread except in pictural form and they send it in themselves“Random Awesome Avatar picture thread” or something…I’m drawing a blank for names.

agagabagabag
in January 28th, 2008 @ 22:38How ’bout an ants vs. bees thred?
l’m fir bees, despite what Gary Havel says.
1. The fight might be a guerilla fight, where the bees quickly drop down, allow ants to crawl over them, fly to great heights, and then do tricks to drop them. Advantage: Bees.
2. Most bees live in social group, and therefore there could be an even fight.
3. As l said in 1, bees might not have to sting the ants. Even if they did, the reason that bees can only sting larger animals once is because their stingers get caught in the flesh. With ants, their mass wouldn’t give much resistance when they pulled out.
4. This one, Gary, only works if the bees lose, which they wouldn’t.

Okay, so everybody knows how we just had a very blah January, right? Everybody seemed to have some sort of problem they were working through.
Well, maybe we could have a “MuseBlog Advice” thread. Sort of like an advice column, where people could use alter egos so they wouldn’t be emberased about asking for help. And MBers could both ask for/give advice. I kind of imagine it like a R&R+Just Friends+Other Advice thread, except you have the option to be anonymous.
Anybody else like that idea?

in February 9th, 2008 @ 17:2396-The reason the GAPAs don’t want you to have other MBers’ emails is they don’t want you contacting people who might not be trustworthy. How would we get to this new place where emails are allowed, when the GAPAs would know they were allowed and wouldn’t let you tell us where it is?
Also, I think the GAPAs are right to have strict rules in place…
We have had a thread every day this month. Let’s see if we can continue, having another (NOT POINTLESS, MIND YOU!) thread created every day this month!

98, 100 – I think all of the writers need to figure out how to stop ALL the writing threads from dying. It feels like only 2 or 3 people are active on any of them, even though many come at the start, claim they’ll be active, since those people then disappear as soon as the thread is off the Most Recent Posts list.

Still, I must admit there’s a nice ring to Bovember. Discuss.

Robert Coontz (Administrator)
in February 23rd, 2008 @ 22:25(13) I think it would be fun to have 13 months of 28 days each (13 times 28 equals 364), plus one special “intercalary” (non-week) day (or two, in a leap year). That way, every month would be exactly four weeks long. If you started on a Sunday, then every month would have a Friday the 13th. It would be harder to translate from that calendar to the normal one, though.

It would be a lot more convenient just to follow your original play: rename the months of the regular calendar, and keep the number of days the same.

A series of pictures based on the posters for the Alien movies, except with the following variations:
1. “Alien” replaced in all instances with “Bunny;”
2. Green color scheme replaced in all instances with pink;
3. Pictures of xenomorphs replaced in all instances with lagomorphs;
4. Other Muserly elements such as Kokopellis added (optional).
And, last but not least:
5. Change tagline to “On the blog, no-one can hear you scream.”

in February 26th, 2008 @ 07:34(140) Not to worry, KaiYves. MuseBlog provides a haven for nitpickers: professional, amateur, and those in recovery. The calendar has been amended.
By the way, I’ll be thinking of you this weekend when I attend the annual astronomy festival at the local community college, which has a small observatory. I’m looking forward to being there in the daytime, too, so I can finally walk the entirety of the sidewalk solar system. On my last journey, I had to turn back when I reached Uranus, as the trek to Neptune seemed inadvisable for a lone individual that late at night.

Hypatia (yes, I am a neophyte)
in March 23rd, 2008 @ 17:23Could we write an aRRRticle? As in, everyone who wants to participate chooses a topic, researches it, and contributes. Or is that too serious?
I’m feeling very idea-ish today.
Could we have a thread for crazy expressions like “erk” and how we use them and what they mean.
And last but not least, my very wierd and dysfunctional idea:
Could we do something where we’re collectively writing the diary of some preson, but we don’t plan anything about the person. They could be a historical figure or an ordinary teenager or an adult or a cow or a hot pink bunny. We’d just write entry after entry without consulting at all and see how the story went, with each person adding elements to the character.*feels exhausted from typing a lot and thinking*

The Delphi Oracle (Formerly known as Hypatia and more appropriately known as Miss Procrastination and who is going through an intense name-changing phase)
in April 3rd, 2008 @ 16:49GAPA’S, could you please start a new poetry thread as the old one is dead? Dead as a doornail. Mind! I don’t mean to say that I know, of my own knowledge, what there is particularly dead about a doornail. I might have been inclined, myself, to regard a coffin nail as the deadest piece of ironmongery in the trade. But the wisdom of our ancestors is in the simile; and my unhallowed hand’s shall not disturb it or the country’s done for. You will therefore permit me to repeat, emphatically, that the poetry thread is as dead as a doornail.
Thank yee kindly.

And of course they’re all using different recipes which are open to different interpretations.

Olympiodorus of Thebes
Zhang Guo the Elder
Khalid ibn Yazid
Jabir ibn Hyyan
Al-Farabi
Artephius
Albertus Magnus
Roger Bacon (he’d be a good founder of the “scientific” branch)
Ramon Llull (love the name! He’s mainly occultist, and he was a contemporary of Roger Bacon, though younger, so he could have founded the other branch)
Jean de Meung
Pseudo-Geber (huh?)
Gilles de Rais
Bernard of Treves
Johannes Trithemius
Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa
Paracelsus
Basil Valentine (look up his recipe for the Philosopher’s Stone: it’s ambiguous as an object, but it could be useful)
George Ripley
Jacob Boehme
Edward Kelley
Johann Georg Faust
Jan Baptist van Helmont
Tycho Brahe (we’ve just GOT to use him: he could have secretly performed an experiment on his false nose to allow him to smell again )
Francois Hotman
Michal Sedziwoj
Arthur Dee
Edward Dyer
Elias Ashmole (again, great name: the fellow was rather unscrupulous, so if we have him discover the Stone, we could make him the antagonist)
Henning Brand
Isaac Newton
Claude Duval
Alessandro Cagliostro
Count of St Germain
Ernest Rutherford
August Strindberg

I think we should set at a date that falls within the “real” lifetimes of the maximum number of alchemists and bring the others in with the stone or some other sort of potion. Besides, there’s something more dark and shady, and, therefore, at least in my mind, though I might be off mark here, better suited to alchemy about, say, the Middle Ages or some other bleak period…

in May 4th, 2008 @ 18:00Here’s a bit of info on John Dee.
“He left Manchester in 1605 to return to London. By that time, Elizabeth was dead, and James I, unsympathetic to anything related to the supernatural, provided no help. Dee spent his final years in poverty at Mortlake, forced to sell off various of his possessions to support himself and his daughter, Katherine, who cared for him until the end. He died in Mortlake late in 1608 or early 1609 aged 82 (there are no extant records of the exact date as both the parish registers and Dee’s gravestone are missing).”
This gave me an idea for an opening scene in which Dee, on his deathbed, tells his daughter an important secret.

The scientists see the occultists as backward, superstitious madmen; the occultists see the scientists as narrowminded, snobbish morons.

And anyone who’s “dead”, but can’t possibly be left out, we can include via a version of the Philosopher’s Stone which lengthens life, transfigures it, or some other form of continued existence that is not true immortality (I assume that no perfect version has yet been discovered). How’s that?

in May 11th, 2008 @ 21:35Let’s lay some ground rules for the use of magic in the Alchemy RRR. This is how I envision it. Suggestions? Changes? Questions? Criticism? Howls of rage?
First: Some magic is necessary- there is no way one could transmute base metals into gold under accepted natural laws. Having said that…
Second: In my opinion, this should definitely NOT involve Harry Potter-style magic. Semi-steampunk/alchemy/Stuart England, yes, but no sorcerers tossing multicolored fireballs at each other.
Third: Magic should be an entirely tedious process- simple cantrips often take a half-hour’s preparation. As a result of this, there is virtually no large-scale magic used, because the preparations might take several centuries, even if you could find the necessary materials.
Fourth: Scientific alchemists shouldn’t use magic at all, while most occult alchemists should direct it towards gaining knowledge, such as creating homunculi (or trying to), prophesying, clairvoyancy, and necromancy (for the reckless, desperate, or completely insane.) Which, of course, is all directed towards finding the recipe for the ever-elusive Philosopher’s Stone.

POSOC & Mim
in May 14th, 2008 @ 18:39That reminds me: I’m going to have to list the alchemists we might include. Here we go:
The year is 1660, and the English Restoration under Charles II is just beginning.
Elias Ashmole- currently 43 years old. He resides in London and is married to Lady Mary Mainwaring, although it is rumored that he married her for her estate rather than for any attraction. He is engaged in a catalogue of the Bodleian Library’s Roman coins, avidly pursuing alchemy and botany on the side. (A little bad news- his works were avidly studied by Isaac Newton later in life, which wouldn’t have happened if Newton and Ashmole were bitter enemies. Therefore, we have to either give up Newton as a main character or give up Ashmole as villain. I suppose we can just make him an unpleasant ally of… *researches* Well, well, he was something of a moderate.)
George Starkey- currently 32. He is a citizen of the New World, born in Bermuda, but he left the Americas ten years ago and now lives in London. He is vehemently on the side of the scientific alchemists and despises the occultists.
Hennig Brandt- currently 30. He lives in Hamburg and is affiliated with the scientific side, but he is scorned by his fellows as an amateur. Little do they know that in less than a decade, he will discover phosphorous.
Isaac Newton- currently 18. He has just been sent back to the King’s School at Grantham, thoroughly happy with his lot, and glad to get away from the home of his twice-widowed mother (who was attempting to make a farmer of him) to finish his education. He is a quiet fellow, with few friends, and enjoys devising mechanical contrivances. Though unmarried, he is engaged to Katherine Storer, step-daughter of William Clark, the apothecary with whom he lodged in his earlier years at the School.
Claude Duval- currently 17. Not really an alchemist. Get rid of him.
It looks as though Starkey, Ashmole and Newton are going to play major parts.

in May 14th, 2008 @ 20:51(287) Yes, perhaps you should decide what to do about the Mystery RRR before starting anything new. Mysteries have more specialized requirements than some genres, and this one might benefit from starting again with the level of planning you’re doing for the Alchemy story. But I’d advise against rushing into a new RRR until some decision is made about the fate of the old one.
This is not to say the two can’t co-exist at some point. Right now the mystery has yet to catch momentum, however, and a starting a new RRR right now would put an end to it, I fear. At least that’s how it looks to me.

in May 15th, 2008 @ 17:57301-Huzzah! Thank you, kindly!
I am going to be honest here. The Mystery RRR is really not working. It doesn’t seem to have clicked properly with enough people to get really underway. I would help more, however, the only mystery stories I like are logical Sherlock Holmesian ones and this RRR seems to be gearing more towards the thriller end of the spectrum. Unless, we get a sudden upsurge in posts, I don’t think it can make it. If nothing happens within, say 5 days, I vote we turn it into the alchemy RRR. How does this sound to everyone?

in May 15th, 2008 @ 20:12Can we have a history thread? I know there was one in days past, but it doesn/t seem to be open anymore, and methinks lots of MBers might appreciate the oppurtunity to rant about histor (ical events, y homework, etc). Actually, it might be better to turn it into a general (need a better name) academics thread, where we could discuss math, science, history. Not school and projects, the actual subjects themselves. We could share quirky facts, good sources, elucidate ideas…

Just for the general information of anyone visiting this thread: the Mystery RRR is becoming a Watergate RRR, probably? If you have objections, are interested, hate the idea with a fiery passion, or have something relevant to say about it, pay a visit to the Mystery RRR thread!

in June 5th, 2008 @ 20:28You know what might be uber (double dots over the u)? A thread called something like, Book Life. It would be an RPPG-ish adventure through the pages of a book that most people had read (if we couldn’t settle on one, we could combine two). We’d take part in adventures, hold conversations with the characters… AND We’d minimize (or eliminate completely) spoilers.

We should make a math thread. You know, a place for people to post hard homework problems or post nearly impossible problems to try and stump the rest of the MBers. The Space thread is trying to accommodate math as well, and it’s annoying. Also, is there a Quotes thread?

Beatlesrockr(10piepoints)&Hiejayko
in June 7th, 2008 @ 19:46can we have a pointless post thread? You know, for the people who feel like saying something that does not fall under any of the threads up?
Or could we have a thread were you try to visualize life in a different perspective, or try and visualize life from another persons/things view? Example, you see a bunny chewing on your rosebushes and you scare it away. Life in the bunnies point of veiw (if it were intelligent):
The gardens of these giant bunny scarers are delicious. It’s just so hard to try and get at those succulent flowers. ! the coast is clear! Here is my chance to get dinner! *run and nibble on a rosebush* mmmm, the first time I had roses since 4 months ago! YUM! Oh no, here it comes. It has a big stick! Oh I have to run! No where to hide! Oh, help! *runs off as person yells at it adn throws stick at it* that was close! I think I twisted my ankle while dodging that stick.
I know, it’s not the best example. And don’t feel sorry for bunnies. I just made that up. Bunnies who look fat, don’t take mercy. Ones who are starving, leave carrots instead of letting them eat your plants!
But the best thing would be to make another Random Factoid thread!
