Can anyone explain to me what "Chim" is.

It's all in there. You're new here, so you may not know, but there's a search option on the top right of the page with which you can search for topics that have been made already.

Thank you, I'll check it out. And in future I'll use the search feature. Mods can lock this if they want

Hmm, If I had done the walkthrough videos for those parts of Integration I'd link to them now.

There's one person you can ask this question to (she'll only answer it after a certain point, not sure about when.)
A couple minor references,
and lastly a quest devoted entirely to finding CHIM, and telling it to a philosopher (with disastrous results later on. )

Basically it's something like the meaning of life except it causes you to cease to exist.

No. It's finding the meaning of life except you continue to exist.

oh god not again





(that's going to become my standard reply to these hreads )

If for some reason that thread isn't enough, the http://s1.zetaboards.com/TESFU/index/has a last resort guide, though you really shouldn't read it unless you have absolutely given up finding it out for yourself. Finding it out is much more fun than being told, I know I ruined it for myself in my confusion, and I most certainly regret doing so. But once you already get the basic idea, and want some more surrounding information, then it can also help you there.


And if you really want the full experience, try and figure it out based just on the lore books. I'd start with the http://www.imperial-library.info/mwbooks/lessons.shtml, specifically number twenty one

From reading the thread, the sermons, and some other books, as well as now Darkom's guide I have been enlightened.. And I understand Chim. The funny thing is that if anyone on the Lore Forums got into the game, they'd either zero sum or achieve Chim instantly.

Oooops, you're right. I got CHIM and Zero Sum mixed up.

You're a Beatles fan, I suspect?

Man, the answer to your question is in the very album you use for your avatar. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KXrrh74wTs&feature=related

But more seriously, yeah this gets discussed a lot..and the fact of the matter is that *whispers* nobody really knows.

Chim chim-eny Chim chim-eny chim chim charoo

CHIM is obvioiusly the lyrics in a Mary Poppins song

Yes, a huge Beatles fan.

Personally, I think this song more embodies Chim:

Considering love is the dividing factor between whether you zero sum or you achieve chim.
