Anyways, get to work! Those first-time RPers on the Pokemon X Board are faster than you!

That could work too, also I was waiting for GX, but I guess I can do Pearl first and Jet later.

So should we wait for GX so that Arcturus and Pearl aren't too far ahead of everyone else, or should I just do the mountain climb?

I say do the mountain climb, and have them explain the time difference by Arcturus speeding up Pearl's relative time, sneakily assisting her.

That could work. Although Rhea will be suspicious that she finished so fast, and Arcturus does not want to get on her bad side. But they probably won't get caught.

Or if he does get caught, he can just make the excuse that he just wanted her to finish in time to see the finale of Tafl vs Alucard.

SMEX, the way the relative time dilation works is that it may have seemed like 30 minutes to Pearl, but it was actually like five minutes to everyone else.
Do you want it to be that 30 minutes passed Pearl time or actual time?

Actual time. The way I rationalized it is that even though Pearl was going faster, her brain couldn't process it and saw it as normal time.

That's how it usually works. Ex: Person A is has his personal relative time increased. Person B does not. Person A sees Person B move very slowly. Person B sees Person A move very quickly. 5 Minutes pass for Person A. 1 Minute passes for Person B. Also, they may be moving at the same speed when walking or running, but it appears that Person A is faster than Person B, when it is just that Person A is running at the same speed over a longer period of time. Also, it doesn't affect momentum. If Person A strikes a wall with a force of 500 Newtons, no matter how his personal time is affected, the wall will take a force of 500 Newtons. Also, a video to help: www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-a-JGr1C2I

Yeah! Science B****!- Jesse Pinkman
Although I did know that. I am trying to become an engineer after all. Plus I love Sci-Fi so I look this stuff up for fun.

My father's a nuclear engineer, and my paternal grandparents are both engineers, with my grandmother being a chemical engineer, and my grandfather being a civil engineer (he studies dirt).
I either want to be a psychiatrist, a voice actor, a screenwriter, a nuclear engineer, an author, and/or an indie game developer. Though, psychiatrist and voice actor are probably the most likely ones.

I don't have any family (That I know of) in the business, but I've always held an interest in how things are made. Personally I'd like to see what kind of games you could make. Or at least hear the concepts.

One of my ideas was like a Bionic Commando meets Metroid idea. Basically, a sci-fi setting in which the character, who's armed with a highly advanced mechanical suit with a very powerful and versatile grapple beam, must secure a number of artifacts to secure the future of his species. It would involve lots of power-ups, and it would focus mainly on the mechanics of the grapple beam, like using it to move around, solve puzzles, defeat enemies, and all sorts of stuff. However, that's not my main idea.
Anyways, you know that name Nathaniel? That's foreshadowing to whenever we do a sci-fi RP. It will be one of two characters, depending on the setting of the RP.

I come from a long line of scammers and people who live off of welfare checks. One millionare and a few that were amazing at trading (but refused to use that ability to better their lives), but they're generally considered the black sheep of the family. It's not hard to see why I want to better myself, pretty much anything is an improvement...

Hey, don't worry. You've told me that you're really smart. You'll make it out there.
Anyways, do you know of any good colleges near your area that have good psychology programs? There aren't very many around mine, and the best ones that I could find are either in Texas or CMU (My parents both attended CMU, and my brother hopes so too).

Both Georgia and Georgia Tech are pretty prestigious. I'm probably going to Berry if I can, because that's my best chance at getting a scholarship (meaning I can actually afford to go to college). They have a great music program (and bald eagles), as do a few others in the area, but Berry is one of the best and my piano teacher has had at least three of her students get scholarships to Berry. What kind of college are you looking for? Could a smaller one work? There are a lot of colleges here in Georgia, and some are fairly easy to get accepted into, such as KSU.

I'm really looking for anything with a good fine arts program (I'm an actor, a singer, and a pianist/FHornist though I'm not very good at either anymore, but I'm a better actor than anything) and a good psychology program with a good writing or engineering program if possible. It's not urgent, since I'm still a high school freshman, but it's still helpful.

Berry allows you to major in psychology, and it's got good programs for the arts. Maybe you should look into it. Rome has some things to do if you're downtown, but it's still kinda secluded, and definetly not an urban setting.
I'm pretty lost when it comes to finding statistics on the quality of their psychology program, so you'll have to do that. But whatever you do, no matter how enticing it is, DO NOT go to the University of West Georgia. DON'T. That place is a bad school in the middle of nowhere, and a waste of your money and time.
