The Heroes of Little Springs; Comment Section

Well, Prometheus was immortal and got his liver or something eaten out by an eagle everyday :p

there's a dude in the Bible that has a similar fate...don't remember his name though...i feel sorry for those people XD

okay, in all honesty, i am not knowledgeable in what the Crusader just did. so basically, he cut the power and went to see which lights came on first? and that's where he thinks the files are? can you explain this to me in stupid people talk because i honestly don't understand it. i mean, i kind of get it but i want to really know what's going on for my own sake.

then again, perhaps its because i read it when i was tired. i dont know, ive just been in a 'my brain is not fully functioning' mode.

Basically most buildings have a generator and then a back up generator. The regular one normally functions at all times. So it powers everything and if somehow it goes out (because of a power outage or being damaged or whatever) the back up kicks in.

When the back up kicks in, it doesn't distribute the power to everything evenly. It does sometimes (but I've done construction in buildings to know that they can be made to kick in and give the energy where it's needed most.)

So does that make sense?

Yes. So the Crusader's theory is that wherever the power is distributed first is ultimately the area where the files would be located.

Or one of the most likely places. That is if the information is on some kind of computer/super computer/computer lab.

Unless they're old school and have a big filing cabinet room, which I didn't get that idea when you had Quiver sneak in.

I've watched too much Batman apparently :p

I imagine they've got their old stuff in filing cabinets, new stuff on computers, and whatever their working on now they've probably got printouts and computers for the briefing. that's how i thought of it anyway. made sense to me at the time.

Alright, it's your story, I'll go along with how you detail/create it.

save it Lee. it was a screw up and im just old fashioned :p

Interesting, old fashioned = information is stored on computers. I never knew!

I have no idea what you're saying right now.

EDIT: also, who is the Crusader trying to get out? The men in the main room where the power's mostly down and not working properly or the Lieutenant in the office?

No one, as he didn't do anything to get them out. Whoever is inside the one computer room, he didn't go inside, because he didn't want to risk being caught. If that room has most of the power diverted to it for the computers, I also assumed power was restored to the lights in the room as well.

Wait what?

There's no one necessarily in the computer room with the towers. It's set up like this:

Filing cabinet room

Computer Room

Lieutenant's Office.

She is not in the computer room. She is at her desk with a computer, but she's not in that room. Nor is anyone in any of the offices nearby.

Oh well, anyway I'm having him check out the filing cabinets right now, unless there is nothing, then I'll make another post.

I'll post, i just wanted to make sure we're on the same page.

quick question: what exactly is in the bag the Crusader gave Quiver? is it like an assortment of his weapons or is it just lead....

It's just a small bag of shaved lead. Just leftover which he hadn't used in his flash bombs.

okay.

I've got a question after the second to last post. How big is Little Springs? I mean, from my understanding, even though it's called Little Springs, it's still a city.....so.....yeah how big is it? Cause...you said the skyscraper was unlikely to have....but it's a city....so why wouldn't there be a skyscraper?

I always assumed it's sort of like the place from Justice League, only there's a rural section, a city, and so forth.

i havent seen Justice League enough to know what you're talking about. I just think of Gotham from Dark Knight or NYC.

Well it's not just a full blown city, like New York. Think of a place that has everything to offer. The rural towns, farm lands, suburbans, cities, that kind of stuff. Just so we have more environment to work with for our stories.

So Little Springs isn't just a city? I thought Little Springs was only one location....like the city and then it has the rural towns and everything but that's outside of the city and probably has a different name.

No. Little Springs is anything but.

ok then.

I mean the story can branch out of the main Little Springs town eventually, but it would probably make sense to keep it close right now.
