Hey Shard -- Here's a blast from the past:

http://geocities.com/buenos_weyr/dragonsize.html

This is a length/wingspan chart I drew up ... I think in 2000.
Using the meters size as "erroneously" recorded in the DLGtP.

[Shard]

Yup, that's the one I was thinking of. HUGE goddamn dragons.

[Shard]

Can you imagine a Pern in which timing it was used responsibly to rally all the Weyrs of Pern EVAR in fighting thread -- you'd have Weyrleaders from all Passes convening in conferences during interval time and conferring back and forth; Wings being sent from Interval time into Pass time to help with heavier falls (as recorded)...

It would be both messed and cool. XD

It would work really well, though. No one even would need to know where or when they were going, just "follow the star chart". They'd then return to their own homes, there wouldn't really be worry of overcrowding.

[Dray]

I'd imagine that different Weyrleaders would have different times that they'd get summoned so that they didn't (LE GASP~) meet themselves. XD Can you imagine meeting someone as an elder first and then as a young, up-and-at-'em Weyrleader the next time? XD Lolz.

[Shard]

I think choosing candidates would involve finding ones who either didn't care, or took it in stride better.

They'd be so vain.

"Look at that dashing bronze rider! What a charming fellow he is! You can see his sparkling grin from here!"

"....that's YOU, you jackass."

"Yes, yes it is. "

[Dray]

XDDD Oh, that would be fun. Hard to wrap my head around, but fun none the less. (You know, I don't have any bronzeriders! I never could get into their head-space!)

[Shard]

Just imagine the most egobloated stereotypical macho man, and add a bomber jacket.

[Xenoqueen]

O_O ::Star Wars: KotOR geekness kicks in, has a revelation::

Machismo... Bomber jacket.... omg you mean the archetypal bronzerider is Atton Rand?!

For the first time ever I find myself WANTING to write a Pernese candidate! XD

[Dray]

XD Oh dear.

I guess I <i>do</i> have some of those... they're just... not really fit to be candidates. :D I always thought they were good wherry-fodder~

(Also: GAG, I can't imagine being in a Gold flight. D: That many egotistical bastards wanting to rut would be like... "Oh lol, invite the football team in plz~!" XPPPP I think I'd be a green rider. XD)

[Astra]

This thread makes me want to write Pernese candidates really bad D: But I caaaaan't, I have hooooomework. Plus I still need to page the dragons I've got! But still. Soooo tempted. I think Cy's got her new Weyr up and running... *ponders*

[Dray]

Do some framework for stories and take five minute breaks to write them up (and add new points if the plot's changing!) XD Ba ha ha ha.

[Yakima]

LOL...guess we all have different ideas of bronze riders. I give guys like that blues...if they're lucky.

Not all my "bronze"riders are typical....actually. J'ren is still green and kinda flimsy (god...he better be ready to take control when K'man dies....heh...of course, that won't happen for a LONG time...); A'bion is kinda the same way. K'man (Mixuith is the size of a 3rd Pass bronze...actually...) is the keep-to-himself kinda person but knows how to lead and take control. B'torl is really my only rider who is a downright jerk and thinks he's 'all-that'. *whaps B'torl on the head* I haven't have all 'good' bronzeriders, right.

I need a bitchy-type goldrider now, to stir up the Queen's Wing. Synde and could have fun with that one...I mean...urg...never mind I said that. Kahii would find the worst chore to do...

That's my two Marks...cents.....
