Nothing like that in heaven or earth. change to Krynn Title: Re: Quick Fix Post by: master on October 28, 2005, 12:45:59 am I think 'earth' means 'land' and 'Earth' is planet. It could be wrong though.
Title: Re: Quick Fix Post by: jAx on October 28, 2005, 06:48:03 am yes Earth is "our" planet...Krynn is there's. It's the planet Krynn Continent Ansalon in which our graceful mud takes place. Earth has nothing to do with it what soever.
Title: Re: Quick Fix Post by: jemma on October 28, 2005, 07:02:49 am Where is Krynn? Next to mars? The moon? I think that's the question too?
I think 'earth' means 'land' and 'Earth' is planet. It could be wrong though. Maybe earth is just another word for Krynn? :) Title: Re: Quick Fix Post by: jAx on October 28, 2005, 07:10:30 am can't be so
Title: Re: Quick Fix Post by: jemma on October 28, 2005, 07:36:49 am why
Title: Re: Quick Fix Post by: jAx on October 28, 2005, 08:08:54 am cause Earth doesn't exist in there world...and we dont' call earth, another name just cause we think we want to...please don't be stupid Jemma
Title: Re: Quick Fix Post by: Caleb on October 28, 2005, 08:28:47 am we refer to earth as the ground, the dirt, the soil. It can easily be so.
and i think its correct. I have spoken. Hear me roar. Title: Re: Quick Fix Post by: k0rh on October 28, 2005, 11:13:56 am cause Earth doesn't exist in there world...and we dont' call earth, another name just cause we think we want to...please don't be stupid Jemma YEAH! Change 'earthmaw' to KRYNNmaw and 'earth-based attacks' to 'KRYNN-based attacks' :) Title: Re: Quick Fix Post by: jemma on October 28, 2005, 12:39:31 pm cause Earth doesn't exist in there world...and we dont' call earth, another name just cause we think we want to...please don't be stupid Jemma we refer to earth as the ground, the dirt, the soil. It can easily be so. and i think its correct. I have spoken.

Change 'earthmaw' to KRYNNmaw and 'earth-based attacks' to 'KRYNN-based attacks' :) It was a simple question Lord Flirr, and a fair one. Title: Re: Quick Fix Post by: jAx on October 28, 2005, 07:52:58 pm YEAH! Change 'earthmaw' to KRYNNmaw and 'earth-based attacks' to 'KRYNN-based attacks' :) It's different there though, that refers to the ground...so a name for that must be developed. Title: Re: Quick Fix Post by: Niano on October 28, 2005, 08:11:37 pm Ok, try to think of the context its used in. Nothin like that in heaven nor earth. In that statement, its not using earth as in ground, it means nothing like that in heaven nor this planet, and its using the name earth for this planet. I agree, logically it should say, Nothing like that in heaven nor Krynn. Just my two cents.
Title: Re: Quick Fix Post by: Nierth on October 29, 2005, 12:55:23 am Oh! What a long discussion. Dont be so small-minded=) Let it be earth, why not?
Title: Re: Quick Fix Post by: jAx on October 29, 2005, 02:51:24 am Small minded is letting it stay "earth"...*sarcastic voice* creativity MUCH!! ::)

If you want to get all technical on it, has anyone actually ever heard a reference to "heaven" in Dragonlance? My understanding is the Abyss is something like hell, for those who committed too many crimes in life, or perhaps who wish to stay temporarily or permanently (reference: Huma has a place in the abyss, according to Tanis, the Shadow Years), and for anyone else, they either roam freely or pass to the next stage of existence in their spiritual journey. No heaven, as far as I know. So, if it's really so irritating that you need to complain, why not make it something like Nothing like that from the deepest sea to the tallest peak. or something similar? Personally, I don't mind it as it is. A spell wouldn't talk to you anyways when you cast, this is just communicating the knowledge gained from it :) Title: Re: Quick Fix Post by: Niano on October 31, 2005, 01:19:53 am Actually, there are references to heaven being mentioned, in the sense that someone looks to the heavens for insight, or some such whatnot in the hoo ha.
Title: Re: Quick Fix Post by: Sir Solan on October 31, 2005, 01:33:21 am In that case, the heavens means the sky. You commented that in this case the "earth" is not referring to the ground, but to the planet. So, heaven isn't referring to the sky, but to heaven. Also, note that it's "in heaven", not "in the heavens". So, if one has to be changed, the other should be too, or change neither ::)
