The age old debate - Is CS based on Earth?

(for the first post)
Thanks for the Movie Linque :D

Anyways, I left the evolution issue for the fact that even I believe the chances are as slim as they can be, yet if you look carefully, every so rarely I've mentioned the possibility of rabbits evolving through inter-racial mating, but that would be possible only on a pseudo-earth or somewhere else totally as you say. But this again is totally against the theory that CS may be on Earth, so I agree that Mimigas are definitely a unique race if CS is our world.

And if it was a pseudo-earth then rabbits may have not existed in the first place. Yay! Evolved Rabbit theory is almost proven false! :D

Though I think the cloaking theory is a bit iffy, Jenka has no reason to waste more energy on cloaking the island when she uses enough already just to contain her insane brother's powers.

I still maintain that CS takes place on one of the 12 Colonies from Battlestar Galactica.

Mimigas are just humans that lived on the island. For some reason Misery turned them into that.

No. From my experience playing the game, it's clear that Mimigas are plain Mimigas. A new species, derived from rabbits or rodents whatsoever, but they are not humans. They did say they hate humans. I know this is a fail, but somebody help me with the pics so that it happens

Misery turned both Sue and that-guy (can't remember his name) into Mimigas, so it is possible that the island was full of humans at one turn and Misery turned them into Mimigas.

And just because they hated humans doesn't mean they couldn't have been human once their selfs and hate all other humans because of what they become.

Talk to the fisher guy at Mimiga Village and you'll know your theory isn't likely to be right.

You just named what the entire game and what people talk about the game is about.

And it still doesn't change the fact that almost every idea and theory is far-fetched, what is your fucking point?

That you're making mutch less sense than Jacob does when he says the Doctor kept the mimigas caged to rape em, coz he does have arguments to trip the debate in his favour

Okay, granted you have a good point there, but it's more the tone in which you put your ideas forth that's repulsive. Note the difference between "she has" and "she might have", because that doesn't give others the idea that you're saying 'your statements are all wrong, because this is fact and fact itself'.

She might have turned humans into mimigas and wiped their memory. Is that better?

And you shouldn't diss my theory because you don't think it's true. You don't see me running around dissing your theory because I think they're wrong.

I didn't diss any theory, I said it's unlikely and unsupported by fact <_<

But I agree that I might've gone a bit overboard there, taking nothing back from my previous post that you needed to change how you deliver your theory.

But there is also no fact that the mimigas evolved.
