When I first started this thread, I was doing it as a way of creating a home of sorts (a homeless shelter, if you will) for ideas of mine that had no place to go in the real world.
Unlike a lot of people here, I like to be ultrarealistic with my ideas, and that means NOT utilizing fiction (i.e., no alternate timelines or "what if" scenarios) or anything that is pure blue sky and nothing more. I like to set up my ideas as if they could realistically happen. But when other things happen in the real world that compete for that spot, I will usually try and work around them if I can, or maybe try and change up my plans accordingly. But sometimes, there's just no way for the ideas to work without having to utilize fiction.
One thing is that I like to use Google Maps to try and see how ideas would fit before I actually work on them. The problem is that a lot of times, the ideas are often bigger than the space that's available. While most people here just carry on with their ideas regardless of space, because the blue sky process is all that matters, I like to be more realistic than that.
That's what this whole thing boils down: me not liking to resort to pure fiction. Even ideas that are set in alternate timelines utilize imagination.
I think it also doesn't help that there are no other places for me to go to post my ideas except here. I've tried posting on Reddit or DeviantArt, but they went nowhere.
Incidentally, I also posted about how Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway could realistically fit in Disneyland Paris' Fantasyland (
