The only reason why I'm double posting is because nobody is replying. And I've got yet another one:

Ah, another RPG. Are you sure he made that, or is it just that it is his account? It's strange how those two RPGs relate to each other.
OK... what's an RPG?

Shocamefromebay,
That is a very random
Haiku, very good!

I've got another splendid ending! 
Voldermort comes back from the dead again and kills every single person in Hogwarts. Harry and Voldermort have a fight that ends with Voldermort dying- but one second before he dies, he kills Harry.

That's got to be the longest name I've ever seen!
#111 Re: Dark Discussions at Cafe Infinity » The Nine Planets » 2007-05-30 19:55:30
I think there's thirteen planets. Eight big ones, three dwarf ones. The new dwarf planets are Eris, and I've forgotten the name of the other. Also, Pluto has three moons now; Charon, Nix and Hydra.

I'd rather go for a nice shade of lilac or white.

This website is one I have bookmarked myself. I'm quite into Astronomy, and this website provides information and links. The link is http://seds.lpl.arizona.edu/nineplanets/nineplanets/ if you're intrested. And here's a part of an article on Neptune:
After the discovery of Uranus, it was noticed that its orbit was not as it should be in accordance with Newton's laws. It was therefore predicted that another more distant planet must be perturbing Uranus' orbit. Neptune was first observed by Galle and d'Arrest on 1846 Sept 23 very near to the locations independently predicted by Adams and Le Verrier from calculations based on the observed positions of Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus. An international dispute arose between the English and French (though not, apparently between Adams and Le Verrier personally) over priority and the right to name the new planet; they are now jointly credited with Neptune's discovery. Subsequent observations have shown that the orbits calculated by Adams and Le Verrier diverge from Neptune's actual orbit fairly quickly. Had the search for the planet taken place a few years earlier or later it would not have been found anywhere near the predicted location.
More than two centuries earlier, in 1613, Galileo observed Neptune when it happened to be very near Jupiter, but he thought it was just a star. On two successive nights he actually noticed that it moved slightly with respect to another nearby star. But on the subsequent nights it was out of his field of view. Had he seen it on the previous few nights Neptune's motion would have been obvious to him. But, alas, cloudy skies prevented obsevations on those few critical days.
Neptune has been visited by only one spacecraft, Voyager 2 on Aug 25 1989. Much of we know about Neptune comes from this single encounter. But fortunately, recent ground-based and HST observations have added a great deal, too.

I'd much rather go with the old look, but the new one's quite good, I suppose 
You could make it into a scene at the beach, and the 'Welcome to MathsIsFun.com' sign could be a beach sign and 'No fishing' in letters underneath. And add a few fat palm trees, turquoise sea, white sand and people mucking around. That would be so cool!
#116 Re: Help Me ! » differce equations questions » 2007-05-28 18:40:55
Half of this stuff looks confusing, but I'll see if I can work it out. For the third question, I'm guessing that it's answer D or E. And I'm just guessing. But I can't help you with the second and first, and I'm very sorry about that, but I don't even know those.
Oh, and welcome to the forum, Natashabaker! You're making a good start on posting

#119 Re: Dark Discussions at Cafe Infinity » What shape is the universe? » 2007-05-27 19:55:37
Ah, black holes. You may know this, but there's a black hole in the centre of our own Milky Way Galaxy. In a few hundred million years, the black hole will swallow Earth, and then people will be shrieking for help. Who wouldn't, when you're about to be pulled into long, thin strips and squashed down until you wouldn't exist?
#120 Re: Dark Discussions at Cafe Infinity » Harry Potter, Voldermort and the other that survives. » 2007-05-27 19:51:20
Are you talking about the seventh and last book of the Harry Potter series? Well, if you are, J.K Rowling did say she would kill two of the main characters. In the fourth one, the Goblet Of Fire, Cedrick Diggory is killed by Wormtail, Voldermort's minion. I'm guessing that all the main ones die, and Harry kills Voldermort, but one second before Voldermort dies, Voldermort kills Harry.
#121 Re: Dark Discussions at Cafe Infinity » What shape is the universe? » 2007-05-27 19:37:20
This may of been talked about earlier in this topic, but I'll say it now. Scientists have come up with two ways the Universe might end; either it will explode with a Big Bang like it was created, or all the galaxies pull together to form The Big Crunch. Before you all hide under your beds and shriek for help, don't worry, this'll happen in trillions upon zillions of years.

That sounded like a speech to me
If there was a cheering and clapping smiley, I'd use that right now! But, I forgot to post that in the Suggestions And Comments part of this forum

There are three people called Shut Up, Manners and Trouble, who go down to the beach to have a game of Hide-And-Seek. Manners hides behind a bin, Trouble hides behind a fat palm tree and Shut Up tries to find them. Shut Up bumps into a policeman who says, "What's your name?" and Shut Up replies, "Shut Up," the policeman says, "Where's your manners, in the bin?"
"Yup," Shut Up replies, as he finds Manners hiding in the bin. "Are you looking for trouble?!" The policeman yells, and Shut Up says:
"Yeah, I've been looking for ages!"

#125 Re: Jokes » This joke isn't even funny. I made it up! » 2007-05-18 16:11:45
When I was nine, I made a show on Microsoft Powerpoint about jokes that weren't funny. I brought it into school on a memory stick, and when the teacher saw it he cracked up laughing! By the way, did you think those up randomly?
