"UNDECIDED" on Article 119. Use by the Makuta would be impractical as they have the ability of telepathy. Use by their lieutenants or other non-telepathic beings would be far better, but I feel that technological communicators would seem out of place in the Matoran Universe.

Once again, however, using telepathy over long distances is strenuous for the Makuta, as is with using all thier powers for extended periods of time. So, another method would have to be used to contact each other at long distances. Also, the positioning system is a much more accurate way of telling where you are in the universe, and where everyone else is.

TT

There's no evidence to support that claim. The only examples of long distance telepathic communication is by Gorast to Teridax and Teridax to Icarax and none of them showed any sign of fatigue. As far as a positioning system goes, is it really needed? I mean, a quick telepathic flash from a Makuta would confirm another's position. Use by the Makuta would be pointless and inefficient.

Perhaps, if this was utilized by non-telepathic beings such as their lieutenants or servants I would support this.

I vote "AYE" to Articles 113-118.

I must however...

*Swoosh*

...use my "Staff of Veto" on Article 119. The Article is very unrealistic and serves no purpose within "The C.I.R.C.L.E. Universe".

118- AYE. I'm guessing this is the same as Tarth's Septit?

Yes, it is indeed the same word that appears in the Epic " Shadows In The Reflection ".

The proposal is for the meaning of a word, not anything else. No need to worry about what the Gardiak are, as I'm trying to get people to forget them for the newest installment of The Outbreak.

Aye to everything but 116 and 117. Sorry!

113:Aye

114:Aye

115:Aye

116:Aye

117:Aye

118:Aye

119:Aye. If the Matoran can make machines and technology, then Makuta ought to be able to build cell phones.

113/114 - Aye, both sound intresting and there is no reason to appose either.

115-118 - Aye, all of these seem reasonable.

119 - Nay, change that Makuta's servents and lieutenants and I would certainly vote Aye on it. Makuta are telepathic you know.

I've edited my original comment to change my "nay" vote on Article 114 to "aye", as well as my "undecided" vote on Article 117 to "aye".

I'd like to change my vote on Article 119 to nay. The Makuta can communicate telepathically, after all, among other things that makes this device seem irrelevant.

I will change my vote on Article 119 to Nay, seeing Ausar's point. Telepathy is much better than a GPS Cell Phone.

one-hundred-thirteenth - "AYE".

one-hundred-fourteenth - "AYE".

one-hundred-fifteenth - "AYE".

one-hundred-sixteenth - "AYE".

one-hundred-seventeenth - "AYE".

one-hundred-eighteenth - "AYE".

one-hundred-nineteenth - "NAY".

Makuta can do so without the use of technology.

Aye

Nay it seems way too long for a war.

Aye

Aye

Aye

Aye

Nay, Makuta have the ability to use telepathy. Why do they need communicators? I could understand if they gave them to beings within their organization to use with eachother but a Makuta wouldn't need such a device to communicate with anyone.

Nay it seems way too long for a war.

But the inhabitants of the Matoran Universe live for a while longer than humans, so this would seem more like a prolonged war to them, not an extremely long one.

Nay it seems way too long for a war.

Not true. A war between two factions can last for a very long time if both sides are well supplied, commanded by cunning leaders, and a hundred other things. The Brotherhood/Dark Hunter War lasted for a thousand years. I don't see why the La Nui Civil War can't last twice that.

Nay it seems way too long for a war..

Let's look at this from a purely mathematical stand point.

Humans may live up to one-hundred years of age or so and, although most do not survive that long, some do. Comparatively, Toa can live to be more than one-hundred-thousand years old. (100,000/100 = An Adjustment Factor of 1,000)

Next, consider the Iran-Iraq War. It was considered quite protracted and bloody by modern standards and lasted for roughly eight years. Using the aforementioned adjustment factor, the BIONICLE equivalent would be an 8,000 year war, and the Iran-Iraq War certainly wasn't the longest war in Human History, by comparison the Cold War would have lasted 45,000 years!

In other words, a two-millennium long La Nui Civil War is roughly equivalent to a human war of two years or so, which is about one-quarter of the duration of the ongoing "Operation Enduring Freedom" in Afghanistan.

I would also like to change my vote to a nay on Article 119 since, as pointed out, the device would be fairly useless for a Makuta given the powers they already have.
