Re: 2013/08/28 - Giving An Earful
the prediction came up because the sunday before last was exactly 3 years from Tarot giving it. We were hoping Rick would actually show it in the time period that "3 years from now" would cover
Re: 2013/08/28 - Giving An Earful
Isn't the fact that she tends to hang out with them frequently a good reason? Besides, the prediction it was supposed to happen now in August. Plus, some people were talking in the thread "characters death" that Rick had confirmed on twitter he had planned something about that but I guess it was a lie.copper wrote:Why is the prediction about Sabrina coming up? She never once appeared in this arc, was never mentioned in this arc, and it was not hinted at.
I doubt it. The deadline was supposed to be set on August 18th.copper wrote:Is this going to come up every time any character is near water from now on?
Yeah but he could have said something like a balloon ride instead. There was no need to mention a waterpark if he had no intention to use it.copper wrote:Just because they are going to a water park means nothing.
Or maybe she was just being friendly with Peanut.copper wrote:Also, Grape does not mind water rides.
Re: 2013/08/28 - Giving An Earful
Heh, naw, she likes water rides...
And three years rarely means EXACTLY three years to the day.... if I say in a year, I do not mean to this very second, and I doubt you would either. Not to mention the fact that that is three years in real time, not comic time. I have no idea how long ago that was in comic time. Am I mistaken? I know the two come close, but there is a difference.

I think each arc starts with comic time and real time being the same, then the comic time advances as the story dictates.

I believe Brent is correct.

also, I think when someone says "x years from now" or "x years ago" it usually means "x years ago/from now, give or take a month or two"

Housepets! could also operate under cartoon time, where multiple years pass in-universe despite time actually not passing.

Yep, and it is that give or take a month or two that comes into play here.... I am sure it will come up before the end of the year if Rick meant it to happen.

You know what, there is one thing that was never fully addressed about this arc, was that the Soul Shattering Prophecy or not?
Re: 2013/08/28 - Giving An Earful
And I didn't get what was the alluded protocol.

there was no protocol, it was just an arc title Rick came up with.
Re: 2013/08/28 - Giving An Earful
A meaningless title? That's so cheap!

I choose to believe that the whole "Wake Up" thing is officially titled (like in Heaven Law Books and stuff like that) the Gallifrax Protocol, because it is cooler that way.RandomGeekNamedBrent wrote:there was no protocol, it was just an arc title Rick came up with.
