h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

... . strides over to megacheda and rips his invisibility cloak off. .. . .

aha!!

...It's a tea towel, fluffy.

Well Stargate's a sci-fi but's it's hilarious in places as well. Go on youtube and search for it. It's the longest running sci-fi show in america. Then there's stargate atlantis a spin-off. Anyway every 100 episode they do s poof for instance the 200th episode in season ten they did a spoof of star trek, farscape, etc. see it all on yotube searh for stargate 200.

Give me some credit, everryone else takes it off me.

Physics. That's a problem. For example, Harry Potter magic and Discworld magic work in different ways. We'll have to find a way around that...

oh (looks at tea towel) sorry (tosses it back)




weeeeeeelllll

how are the disc world and hp magic different?

Oh who cares taht much axi. if we can't work it out it doesn't really matter, stuf in games doesn't ahve to work in real life.

also... i believe star trek is the longest american running sci fi show... stargate is pretty new in comparison

In HP, magic is there to be used straight away, and anyone can use it. In Discworld, a spell has to be memorised and put into a wizard's head, then it is good for one use only. Also, staffs need to be charged through meditation etc where wands don't. And it seems that only the senior wizards can used magc in any significant manner. And the eighth son thing And Sourcery.

And the Rites. They seem to be another form of magic...

i thot the witches are pretty well pretty good at spells

<space.
actually.. the witches are the ones that are the magicians................

the wizards are not worth a hoot

Granny is, but when have Magrat, Nanny or Agnes done 'proper' magic? And besides, they use Headology a lot more than magic.

are you getting all this stuff from a game... is there a discworld game?

Three. And no I'm not. Believe it or not, all this is from memory.

ok and i just finished hp and havent read a pratchett book in months... forgot the wizards forgot everything

Haven't finished HP yet, and I haven't read a Discworld book in a few weeks, but I have the Almanack with me now.

oooo an almanac

you said a few days ago in my jk rowling thread you'd finished it ...oh that was tongue in cheek huh

guess what... it is slow at first.... but it picks up and the ending justifies the slow meter and pace of the first half
