First of all, I'm not even remotely Loyal and have no clue where you got that idea.

Secondly, Rose says it in this conversation:

Quote:

EB: oh, rose, did you know that we are supposed to be creating a universe with this game?
TT: Yes.
EB: i think that's pretty neat!
TT: It is, in principle.
TT: But it won't happen.
EB: so you believe the trolls then?
TT: It's not a matter of believing them.
TT: The writing is on the wall. Literally.
EB: it is?
TT: This session was never meant to bear fruit.
TT: It's barren, so to speak.
EB: that's a bit of a bummer!

As for Aradia's comments, she most likely meant that their universes were influencing each other rather than creating each other, as the trolls' progress through the mission was heavily guided by Rose's GameFAQs updates, which lead to them taking actions that caused those very updates to happen in the first place, as well as countless other consequences of a massively convoluted stable time loop.

I agree that the kids' session didn't create the troll universe (although I have a decent theory running for what could be happening if it did), but as far as precognition goes, I think pretty much all bets are off once the scratch happens. I very much doubt that ANYONE has seen beyond that. Even Aradia, whose precog has proven extremely accurate.

I don't believe you!

And we still don't know how accurate rose's info is. Given the choice I'd prefer to trust Aradia. Though I may be misinterpreting what she said. Yeah, probably.

Still, it's a possibility, at least. It'd work pretty well, plot-wise and narratively.

I actually do intend on starting one when things die down.

Would anyone be interested? If I can get like, 6 people, then I'd do it. I've had experience GMing before, believe it or not, and a good amount of them lasteda while.

I doubt any of Rose's info is WRONG, but maybe incomplete in some important ways. Aside from the matter of the scratch, the thing about precog in time travel stories is that you rarely get all the details, and some of those are pretty important. Take Legacy of Kain: Defiance, for example. Moebius and the Elder God were exactly right: Raziel DID rip out Kain's heart and enter the Reaver. Obviously that must have been a win for them, right?

Or it could be that ripping out Kain's heart only killed him temporarily and also removed his main weakness, and Raziel entering the Reaver turned it into an unstoppable god-slayer.
