Heh, I know all about constellations, took Astronomy in freshman year. Whole bunch a myths learned there, like The sotr of Artemis and well some other :P.

Anyway, guys , I got a great idea. Y'know how we've been wanting to make a flash in the past but have had no inspiration for it? Well, now Tom's got this thing called the power of three, where teams of three come together for a game. Read teh post if you don't know what I'm talking about. Anyways, we could have a contest to determine who gets to be the team, or split into little groups of three ourselves, and really help promote the club with some epic Greek-myth themed games! Here's one - (This might be used in my team, copyright IS MINEZ!) The world is coming to an end, because Hades, Poseidon and zeus are combning to wipe out man foreverz :(. So Perseus, Hercules and Theseus combine to save the world! See where I'm going? Interested? I'll make a site where we can collaborate on ideas if ya want, I'll put in the details to Matt later if we're interested. Respond ASAP!! We have three weeks for an idea, so HURRY!

Yeah, have you read the Iliad yet?

I think we read that, yea.

Ok, I will shut up now.
Does that mean you wanna join? :3

Hmm... I'll consider it. ;)


Hope you'll stick around.

Well, if I'm not in TOO much trouble this weekend, I'd be glad to join the conversation here!

You know, why do Egyptians even worship those gods, so far those gods havent done shit for them.
And the myths they have don't even make sense or are even good ones, they're all evil and deathfilled.

I can say the same for Greeks, but the myths they have, they DO make sense, and the gods do sometimes help the people.
It's mainly the Heroes though, but their myths and battles are worth getting excited about, not feeling dreadful at the end.

A game would be even harder to do...?
Especially in groups of 3 and not a crew project.

But I guess it's up to Matt. :)

Oh and by the way, your idea.
It's a great idea for a game, but you do know that if that's going to happen successfully i'd sell that game for money, You'd have to redraw backgrounds, walking animations, actionscripts, enemy's actions.
It's too much. Especially for a group of three.

Sorry. :(

Well quite a lot of myths were about solving puzzles and using your brain, rather than just pure braun. The greeks were like that.

T be a Greek or Roman god, you need to have either done some epic deed to save the world (Greece) like Hercules, or been born with power, Zeus.

By the way, are there any programmers out there? we have art guys, music guys but no programmers> =<

Not really.

The fact that the Egyptians didn't attack had nothing to do with being afraid of angring the Gods.
Rather, the cats tied to the shield symbolised the Godess Bastet, who was kind of like Hera the Godess of family life and welfare.
The symbolism has it that way such that attacking the cats would be like attacking your own family. consider it like people pasting the photograph of your wife and kids on their equipment. It is even hypothesised that the Persian held the family of the Egyptians captive and used them as hostages. This message was sent by binding cats to the shields.

Ancient people did not like the idea of angering their gods that much. But there is far more to the Egyptians than just fearing the Gods and doing everything in favour of the gods.

These guys were frigging mathematicians!

Also, in case of the Greeks, they were even less religious. Of course, the downfall of religions probably peaked at the roman times, after which everything came down and Christianity flaired up out of the darkness.
