@githubphagocyte worldbuilding.SE is a strange beast, destroying the ~~earth~~ ~~solar system~~ universe is okay, but put up a great white against a million weasels and that somehow crosses a line...

@FutureHistorian You have been asked not to ping random users to answer your questions. Posting the question is fine but repeatedly pinging people is annoying. If people are interested they will answer you.

In fact, let me generalize that: if you have review privileges for any queue, please check the queues on meta occasionally. The orange number doesn't light up until there are a few items waiting and reviews are relatively rare on meta. So, please check to see if there's anything requiring action when you get a chance. Thanks!

@Gryphon Obscenely is so subjective, and a really high bar to clear. You start, and you think, yeah, that's pretty obscene, but then the next guy is like, "hey, you call that obscene? Hold my beer and let me show you what I can do with elven midgets..."

Universe Factory - Medium: When nature beats you to the punch

posted on January 30, 2018 by HDE 226868

World builders often have startling capacities for imagination. Yes, you need to think hard to, say, design realistic geography for a planet, or create a new language, but even so, we have biases arising from our own experiences. In some ways — small ones, perhaps — we remained bound by what we observe around us on Earth. Coming up with new life-forms, whether carbon-based or not, requires a bi…

@AndyD273 Listen to me very carefully. I don't know who you are, and I don't understand your question. If you want me to cast a re-open vote, I don't have the rep to do that. But what I do have is a very particular set of skills. Skills that I have acquired over a long career on other SE sites...
