I’m not terribly familiar with Discord, the only things I know are that

  1. A lot of Star War Galaxy of Heroes guilds use it (I don’t)
  2. A lot of Nazis were recently removed from it

With that said, can anyone explain to me why you would need to use it for this place? Why can’t you just post whatever you’re talking about here?

I presume the real time aspect of chatting with everyone else is the appeal. It was fun when there was a chatroom when you livestreamed TRM a few years back. Some other sites have a “shoutbox”, which is similar to IRC in look and feel, but no way to know who’s actually there unless they say something.

I’m waiting for video chatroom technology where we would all be in little boxes like some giant Brady Bunch title sequence. 😉

Unless I’m missing something, I’m guessing uploading the DVD files to MEGA would be faster than snail mailing a disc.

We’re in the same geographic area more or less. And my pal Jaxxon likes his physical media. Also, our internet is slow as a turtle.

I lament the trilogy discs won’t look similar, but we need to track down Boba Feta to make a cover.
JEDIT:Apparently he already did a mock-up for one some time ago.

As they were established earlier in the movie, I’d say no. Luke still has to make an almost impossible shot to destroy the DS. Han just buys him a little more time. If Obi Wan’s ghost appeared to Vader and caused him to crash into his wingmen, then it would be a Deus ex Machina, as Force Ghosts weren’t established yet.
