Dilemma

Your point is very valid Dreamer, and taking into account Algol has been a bad omen star in the eyes of many throughout history it's only natural to think of a reason why would it be so dreaded a place, like being the prison of an all-consuming-evil.<p>And no, no one's telling you that has already been posted before, after all no poster here is under any obligation of following every single message word-by-word. <p>...they may type it, but I don't think they'll say it, not aloud at least. =P

So the Phantasy Star, Algol, is sealed. <br>In astronomy Algol means "demon's head," but is also called the Demon Star.<p>So wouldn't that mean the seal of the three (or two) planets sealed the Demon Star?<p>(please don't tell me that this is also posted somewhere else like before...) <br></blockquote><br>thats kanifty i never knew that before, the name makes a lot more sense now.

PS is being discussed on the net since 1997 or more, so chances are that everything was discussed at least once :^P

<blockquote><i>Originally posted by Dreamer</i><br>I saw something about PS names being related to mythology somewhere, (the place isn't coming to mind) so I thought I'd share a small bit of info.<br></blockquote><p>Quoted from the Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition:<p>Algol is a variable star in the constellation Perseus (in Medusa’s eye). Algol’s variation in apparent magnitude, from 2.06 to 3.28, is due to the fact that it is an eclipsing binary, with one component revolving about the other with a period of 2 days, 20 hr, 49 min. Because the plane of revolution is almost parallel to the line of sight, the star dims noticeably when the dimmer component passes in front of, or eclipses, the brighter component, and dims again very slightly when the brighter component eclipses the dimmer one; the primary minimum, when the brighter component is eclipsed, lasts about 10 hr. Algol is of spectral class B8 V and is about 105 light-years from the earth. The name Algol comes from the Arabic Ras al Ghul, which means “demon’s head,” and the star is sometimes called the Demon Star.<p>...also, in Algol-star-sytem.net, Louis Champ denotes that it is the jewish who know Algol as the "demon star". <p>EDIT: Heh, you just changed avatar as I was posting this, nice new face. <p>[size=small][Edit by ROMeo on [TIME]1108851236[/TIME]][/size]
