  1. Oh, Dr. Maxis didn't know of Griffin Station or the multiple successful experiments there. Well, in my thoughts, anyway. The amount of effort Dr. Richtofen had to put into it by smuggling materials and such out of the other members labs seems like too much hassle if he had clearance for it already, and the MDT would have been declared a triumph long before the outbreak and plan came into things. I'm more concerned with the idea that they had computers BEFORE the station was built, and they were common knowledge to 935 at large back as early as 1939, even. I forget which radio made me think that the computers were around at the time (I'll check that in a second), but the fact that they are present at Griffin Station is what made the idea click. I... sort of doubt Dr. Maxis truly being for the human condition, but that's for another place. It just seems to me that if they had all of those things, gathering some funds together in order to stay independent of government influence wouldn't be terribly difficult. Not even giving the whole picture away, the idea of a fully working circuit board of that level, plus data storage, would have been phenomenal. I mean, the Datenbediensteter exists, which means there was a computer around for him to use it with. Beyond Mr. Zuse's level of complexity in even his latest models (Thank you for that lovely read, Steeler), to the point of 21'st century levels of late 20'th century at earliest. The amount of money a private contractor would pay for a tiny, life-changing piece of technology that wouldn't even be a whole invention would be phenomenal, without getting in the way of the whole "international coalition of scientists" fun they had going. Other scientists could have worked it out who were not affiliated with the Group, and they get a crud load of royalties. I mean really, funding wouldn't have been nearly as big of an issue if Dr. Maxis had thought of it instead of- Not the place, but you get my point. Those computers were a gold mine. It would have helped humanity. It might not have sold as well with war brewing as it would during peace time, but it still could have had a major impact while allowing neutrality.

  2. Hey, maybe they just liked the speciality Severed Arm Style the designers gave them. That rotting flesh smell just really helps the room's energy out. Now that I think about it, and checking the radios, it seems like they had them way back during the first MDT tests, which is before the deal was finalized. I guess that Group 935 might have valued secrecy that much, but if Dr. Maxis felt that way, that Nazi Party deal would never would have happened. It just seems really conflicting. Either Maxis is a dirty, filthy, annoying liar with no idea of what good conduct in a scientist is while lying through his teeth in the 935 handbook to lure international scientists into a trap (my current choice), there was another reason for them making the deal, or they didn't believe that tech with no immediate war applications would sell nearly as well with that storm brewing on the horizon. Any other ideas?
  3. There's something odd about the systems that Group 935 had on Griffin Station. The base was built in the forties or so, with technology and scientists from that era. Obviously they didn't time travel for them, since Richtofen didn't invite Gersch to the project. Yet, when you explore the base, the computers all seem to be far beyond the level of the time. Potentially storing AI, holding music files which in total are probably larger than the entire storage capacity of early computers, activating and supporting a Casimir mechanism, the list goes on. Now, we know that 935 was highly advanced, right? You can't throw a stick without hitting some fancy machine that one of their members created. It just makes me wonder: If they had that amazing technology so many decades early, why wasn't it shared with the world? If the scientists had invented them pre-Nazi deal, and Maxis truly believed in the group ideals, it seems like he would have chosen to release the information. Those profits would be able to fund the group many times over. If it was done post-deal, it still could have helped Group 935 with their experiments (I can't imagine those materials came cheap or easy from smuggling it out). Their goal supposedly was to help the "human condition", wasn't it? ..Oh dear, I rambled on quite a bit, huh? Did that make any sense?

    Hiya!

    Thanks for the welcome, everyone. I've done everything but the last bit of Moon, but only because I need to do it with my friends so they won't get mad. As for it being discussed to un-death, I welcome the concept compared to what I'm used to!

    Hiya!

    Thanks, Killall. That was really helpful. The whole brain system seemed sort of weird without the explanation. Yeah, that's a medic, Hellhound. It's usually my role and I like Starcraft, so might as well use a nice picture.

    Hiya!

    Hi, CODZ forums! I'm a lurker by trade, but this place has coaxed me out of my little hole. My name is Lucinda, and I'm a sixteen year old story obsessed female, with a love of seeing zombies explode into chunky salsa after giving them names. Started playing zombies in Black Ops last January or so, and zoned straight in on the delicious science conspiracy goodness, with this place as my giant archive. Nice to meet you all.
