Well, I think he'd have trouble talking outside of time.

Not if he's talking to another time being.

Would time beings be able to operate outside of time? I would think not. I mean, without time, what would they be?

Our inability to understand how and why they can talk doesn't mean they can't.

Creature that is two dogs, your understanding of Time, the absence of Time, the beginning and end of Time, and the relationship between all of them, is too limited for you to understand the answers to your questions. Experience Time as you are able, moment by moment, and enjoy it as best you can.

OK, I will begin processing results on Monday, the 13th. I will try to have results out by the end of the 15th.

Hmm...

I'm happy to post my write up from my turn, but I'm not certain if even this little bit is allowed. I would hate to post, only to have to rescind it.

Fist, is Culo going to post these comments related to your own delusional reverse-time conversations for the WHOLE GAME?

'Cause it's totally in character, but damn... I'm just going to start ignoring anything Culo posts from now on.

A question born of ignorance...
Is each turn a full year? Or did Turn 1 coincide with a new year, but that is not the case every turn?

Yep, one turn is one year. At least for now.

While we're at it, I assume that this world has standard Earth characteristics? Four seasons, sun that travels from east to west, etc?
