Sad that even though the cube is bigger, the ISD still beats the living shit out of it.

From the other thread covering this same topic of scaling.

But funnier.

And it makes the cube look tiny. Hah, Walper!

Sorry. My bad. This is the site I was thinking of. It has most if not all of the various sci fi ships, including Star wars.

Yeah, that's the one with the so called "official" sizes for the SSD, DS1 and DS2. Bah. Also, he has the Whitestar at 400+ meters.

Apart from these errors it seems good: particularly the bit about being able to move the picks around and all.

Yes, that was a cool site, Gothmog, even if the size of the Executor and the Death Stars are off.

With one shot, even.

Please email him, all of you, stating the new canon sizes and their sources of origin.

He knows that he's wrong. The problem is that he finally caved into popular pressure after constantly being harassed by moronic fucks crying about how he got them wrong, despite putting up links to SWTC proving himself in the right.

Illuminatus Primus · Post by **Illuminatus Primus** » 2005-01-24 04:44am

SOURCES OF ORIGIN, blockhead. Since popular opinion weighted with EU sources drove him to change, the revised EU sources should be pointed out to him. Explained quite plainly that the official sources moaned over by those cretins have been replaced.

Spanky The Dolphin · Post by **Spanky The Dolphin** » 2005-01-24 04:48am

Are you calling me a blockhead?

For all I know, he could be aware of the curent status, but he'd probably keep it the same just to avoid the deluge of harassment.

So we precipitate a deluge of harassment to get him to get it right.

It can't hurt to push back. And since he's given no awknowledgement of change-of-status.

And yes, I called you a blockhead. I'm obviously familiar with the site here, and he clearly articulates cognizance of Saxton's site, but we all know things have quite changed since his original edits.

Spanky The Dolphin · Post by **Spanky The Dolphin** » 2005-01-24 05:46am

I see no reason why you had to call me a blockhead. I didn't do anything.

I wrote that post in terms of readibility by the general audience, not just to you, so that's why I covered things that you personally already knew.

I've been called worse, but this time I feel calling me names is completely unwarrented.

Crown · Post by **Crown** » 2005-01-24 05:59am

Look guys could we not get into a cat fight over a missunderstanding?

For those of you who care about the correct sizes of SW ships (particularly the Executor), do as IPrimus suggested. Email the web master, cite the updated official holocron, and reference the SWTC.

Be polite, be sucinct, and point out that the official statement now matches the observed film evidence.

Crown.

Maybe I missed something but where else besides the OT:ITW has the Executor and DSII been corrected? Some of the posts I've read here seem to imply a deluge of new material that uses the correct information but I haven't seen any actual sources mentioned.

And have been, several times by myself and other members of this board. He hasn't replied or changed the figures, and I first emailed him months ago....

The Death Star I was corrected in the OT: ICS, and the AT-AT was fixed in the OT: ITW.

And then, of course, there's the films themselves...

Lord Zentei · Post by **Lord Zentei** » 2005-01-24 09:15pm

We can at least try and get him to post both versions: the old "official" size and the revised canon size... along with a screen capture or two from ESB. That way people can see for themselves which is the more accurate.

BTW: Spanky what's up with the new title?
