Surface Scientists calculate impending doom

Mar 30th 2009 - 11:10 AM

All systems continue to be on full alert today, and our teams of scientists and brave astronauts are working like crazy to find the source of these disturbances. One thing remains clear though, the stabilisers are rapidly failing and the core temperature of the Planetoid is… scaring us.

Reports arriving to us from surface scientist Kimura by way of the comments indicate some frightening statistics:

Anyway, I’ve had the Supercomputer calculate the orbital paths of the Planetoid, LittleBigPlanet itself, and the MyMoon and InfoMoon. Here’s what it came up with:

  • 25% chance of hitting one of the moons, either destroying the moon or the Planetoid;
  • 10% chance of hitting one of the moons, BUT instead of destruction, knocking the moon out of orbit and causing the Planetoid to assume a new orbit;
  • 30% chance of creating a 5000-sackmile-radius crater in LittleBigPlanet;
  • 5% chance of getting a binary orbit with one of the moons, swing around in a stable figure-8 path;
  • 20% chance of catastrophic failure (the Planetoid hits a moon, the moon hits LittleBigPlanet, and the resulting collision sends sponge and rubber fragments flying off into the rest of the LittleBigGalaxy);
  • 15% chance of the collective Rocket thrust of all the Pods being enough to get the Planetoid back into its orbit;
  • -5% chance (yes this all equals 100%) of a team of sackpeople getting into Lyoko and deactivating the tower that X.A.N.A. is clearly using to crash the Planetoid, then using a Return to the Past to fix everything. Of course, what he wants with LittleBigPlanet is a mystery in itself

That pod idea sounds worth a try, we’re gonna get to it. In the mean time, maybe we will have some more cake news to keep us distracted?

Oooh err look over here, part 3 of The Bonus Round on Gametrailers, featuring Alex Evans. (Thanks Robin)

WTF

PS-Im not a virgin anymore VAGINA CITY

Anchor

this reminds me of Camp Hyrule.

Anchor

Starting to lose what little interest I originally had in all this BS

Anchor

Previous posts were good - this will ruin the anticipation for many people, what a shame.

Anchor

o comon we know its a joke allredy just admit it

Anchor

i know that post! I saw it in the comments of some other news! i still think it’s most likely that we all die a horrible fiery death. want some chocolate? anyone?

Anchor

On wednesday we’ll know if not it’s not a joke!

Anchor

Looks like a loada crap to me.

Anchor

Three things that this looks like.
A. they have had some system errors and they didn’t want most people to worry which is why they put it in a sort of code.
B.Theres a hacker and they put it in code to stop the hacker from realizing that theyre calling out for help and stopping them
C.This is a long planned for april fools joke which isn’t funny any more and the only problem is that it isn’t Aprils Fools Day yet
This is what I think these posts could be about
Check out my PSN id. Its Raving Ape. Play my levels

LittleBigPlanetoid has been bought by LittleBigPlanet…

Anchor

were did you here this jason frost if so awsome

Anchor

I don’t think this is meant to be a joke. It’s just an interesting little story. No need to get all fired up over it.

Anchor

“30% chance of creating a 5000-sackmile-radius crater in LittleBigPlanet;”
eerrrmmm…Oh cock

Anchor

wasn’t there a rumour of a 200AD patch from the leaked image of the whiteboard conataining patch details.

Anchor

i am so lost =/

Anchor

Woohoo! Bruce Willis is gonna save them!!!!!!!

Anchor

uh oh! quick, everyone to the warehouse, we need to get into lyoko!

XD that one refrence cracked me up, i haven’t seen that show in a long time!

Anchor

Okay. i used my super computer to see how many pods it would take to lift Littlebigplanetoid back to orbit. Assuming the planetoid is about 7 tenths the size of the litlebigplanet, and each pod is about one tenth the size of the Planet and has just enough thrust to keep it in orbit, it should take probably at least 70 just to stop the planetoid and at least 100 pods to lift it up by maybe a few miles, and at least 150 to lift it back up to where it original was. hopefully my calculations are correct and we can save the planetoid!

Anchor

W00T!!!! Bruce Willis wil save the universe! Again!

Anchor

what the heck ! did any of u guys see that spaceman on top ?

Anchor

♫Leav-ing, on a jet plane. Don’t know when I’ll be back again…♫

Anchor

lalala la la la la la… la la la la la la la-la!

We’re so close to destruction…

We were researching the gravitation effects of Dark Matter, when we discovered that we could use this energy to fuel our rockets.

However, the Dark Matter was too powerful, and the rockets fired too hard.

The Dark Matter has begun to drain the LittleBigPlanetoid’s heat energy, and I fear that it may soon be too late.

Anchor

Man, this is really annoying now and unfunny. Just stop.

Anchor

Theres only one thing to do when faced with inevitable Doom…


...Have a random concert!!!!

Anchor

Oh..my god we dont care about this stupid crap all we want is news and updates! why do you think we come here? just to hear “core tempurature rising” no thats not what we want. we want news!!!

Anchor

It was funny at first BUT COMON THIS IS THE STUPIDEST !@#$%^& THING JUST SAY ITS A UPDATE OR SOMTIN ps it might be new pods
