What is chaos?

FractSurf - FAQ
Chaos is apparently unpredictable behavior arising in a deterministic system because of great sensitivity to initial conditions. Chaos arises in a dynamical system if two arbitrarily close starting points diverge exponentially, so that their future behavior is eventually unpredictable. Weather is considered chaotic since arbitrarily small variations in initial conditions can result in radically different weather later. This may limit the possibilities of long-term weather forecasting.

What is the Edge of Chaos (EOC) ?

Self-Organizing Systems FAQ for Usenet newsgroup comp.theory...
This is the name given to the critical point of the system, where a small change can either push the system into chaotic behaviour or lock the system into a fixed behaviour. It is regarded as a phase change. It is at this point where all the really interesting behaviour occurs in a 'complex' system, and it is where systems tend to gravitate give the chance to do so. Hence most ALife systems are assumed to operate within this regime.

How does it relate to chaos ?

Self-Organizing Systems FAQ for Usenet newsgroup comp.theory...
In nonlinear studies we find much structure for very simple systems, as seen in the self-similar structure of fractals and the bifurcation structure seen in the logistic map. This form of system exhibits complex behaviour from simple rules. In contrast, for self-organizing systems we have complex assemblies generating simple emergent behaviour, so in essence the two concepts are complementary.

Are Chaos Sorcerers the same as what you're describing?

FAQ
Up till now, all I've been focusing on are the philosophical aspects of Sorcery. The techniques are different. A Chaos Sorcerer's ritual includes making up a personalized sigil and then implanting that sigil in a Psychonaut fashion. My brand of Sorcery involves both the old fashioned techniques coupled with some of the new technology out there. Both brands of Sorcery seem to share much of the same belief systems yet they are different in application.

What is "chaos theory"?

Shane Ross: Frequently Asked Questions
Chaos theory is the mathematical field of study that attempts to explain the fact that complex and unpredictable results can and will occur in systems that are sensitive to their initial conditions. Such systems include weather patterns, the stock market, fractals, planetary physics, and the motion of some asteroids, comets, and even planets.

What's with the big hats on the Chaos Dwarfs?

Triple Skulls! Egad!
I don't know, but they look pretty goofy. Maybe that's what happened when that particular group of dwarfs started turning towards Chaos. Perhaps it's a social convention -- the more important you are, the bigger your dorky-looking hat. If that's the case, the High Elves have them beat.

What is Market AstroPhysics? And where does the Chaos come in?

FREQUENTLY ASKED

Question
Market AstroPhysics is the study of how the solar energy field affects markets. The basic theory is that the planets, moving around the sun, change the flow of ionized particles to the earth. These particles change the voltage on the ionosphere, setting up waves in the earth's electric field. These waves change the currents flowing through us, causing us to trade emotionally. This accounts for the 40% of market motion that is not due to fundamentals.

What is the philosophical significance of chaos theory to science and religion?

Chaos theory is based on the premise that there is no defined order in the universe. The universe reacts rather than is influenced by any order. Undefined order is not chaotic, it is simply undefined. This theory has profound implications for religion as it means there is no God to order the structure. Thus there is not purpose to the structure. From this we get a relative morality. What ever is expedient is ethical. There are no moral absolutes.

Can I cast Reign of Chaos if there are either no creatures or no lands in play?

Magic: The Gathering - Mirage FAQ
To play Reign of Chaos, there must be both a target land and a target creature in play. Just like with any spell or effect, you have to have all the legal targets to cast the spell or activate the effect. If only one target remains when Reign of Chaos resolves, Reign of Chaos still destroys the other target. Again, just like any other spell or effect, once the spell is successfully cast or activated, it will generate as many of the effects as it can.

How does Chaos affect the order of play?

Age of Renaissance Frequently Asked Questions
Players in Chaos are assumed to be buying zero expansion tokens and play order is determined in the usual fashion. Alchemists Gold, Civil War, and War! could not be played against a chaosed nation since they target a player and the player is no longer in the game. Pirates/Vikings and Rebellion could target the provinces of the chaosed nations since their target is provinces, not players. Yes, the played cards are still applicable on the turn that a player chaosed out of the game.
