Well my logic says that if you can build one, you can build two. DUHHHHHZ.
Huh, and here I thought that The Escapist forums users would generally be MORE mature than GameFAQs. I guess I got unlucky here.la-le-lu-li-lo said:
Anywho, in order to counteract your illogical logic, I will say that my question clearly states that you have a single time machine. A second one was not introduced or even mentioned, hence it does not exist, and if it did, it would take another fifty years to build.
Seeing as you said to create two time machines, and the first one took fifty years, the second one would also take another fifty years, by then the inventor would be long dead. Also, take into account the fact that the creator is not going back in time until after your second time machine has been built.
Your scenario is not possible in my stated question, thus it remains impossible.
Or perhaps I'm thinking far too much into this at five in the morning.
You certainly might have been thinking too far into it... I was certainly kidding, and I apologize for being ridiculous and not taking your question seriously. /:ThePostalGamer said:
I won't disagree with you on that first part. No need to apologize for not taking it seriously, it wasn't meant to be in the first place. As a matter of fact, I don't think this topic was supposed to have anything in it taken seriously anyway. :^P
I should be the one apologizing about my first sentence in that post, I went a bit overboard there. I won't make the "five-in-the-morning" excuse here, that was just out of line.
(If you're wondering why it took me so long to reply, it's because my internet was recently upgraded and my modem seems to be unable to handle it, which led to it not being able to connect for more than a minute per day.)

Upon considering that, I figured it meant that the Falcon was powerful enough a ship to compress the space between the points of the Kessel Run to 12 parsecs.RatRace123 said:

There's no such thing as either, However, taking conservation of momentum into account, the immovable object will have to move to some degree. The momentum has to go somewhere, and it'll transfer it to the entire planet it's connected to, moving the planet, and by extension, the object. Don't try and counter by using the planet as a fixed frame of reference either: It'll still accelerate in that frame.Anchupom said:
