Universe Sandbox Geyser Basin [Incomplete/lolwut]
« on: July 06, 2012, 08:38:29 PM »
Spam Geyser
Type: Cone

Located just off the boardwalk, Spam Geyser erupts erratically, usually one or two times a day. It erupts in series, so when it is in the eruption phase, it will usually splash onto the boardwalk for hours at a time, annoying park visitors. It has a 40 second cycle where the eruption jets from three different vents. At the lowest point of the cycle, the eruption can be as low as one foot high, on the jet furthest from the boardwalk. About 30 seconds later, it can reach heights of 4 to 5 feet, but will quickly subside as the pressure inside the geyser is released.

Before and during an eruption of Spam, nearby geysers in the Explosive Group which are geologically connected underground, including Srsbizniz and Explosive Geysers will either fail to erupt or their eruptions are significantly stunted.

is this representing awl of us

Srsbizniz Geyser
Type: insert nueist name here

Located twenty meters away from the boardwalk, Srsbizniz Geyser erupts on average 0.9 times a day. It erupts at extremely predictable times and is one of the largest geysers. It will erupt almost exactly on time every 1 day, 55 minutes and 12.78 seconds. When it erupts, the plume can reach as high as 39.6 meters, the second tallest in the entire basin. It has four vents, which it erupts out of each time. All of them erupt to the exact same height. The eruption's height follows a classic bell shape if graphed. The average length of an eruption is 2 hours, 3 minutes, and 38 seconds, with an eruption being as short as 18 minutes, 12 seconds, and as long as 19 hours, 35 minutes, and 56 seconds. It is affected by the Spam Geyser and will sometimes have very small eruptions when the Spam Geyser is going off.

Almost but I was thinking I would have a better name. Like Catalyst Geyser.

Also that would probably be a cone.

Explosive Geyser
Type: Fountain

Originally an inactive hot spring, in the year 455, a large earthquake shook the Universe Sandbox Geyser Basin, causing changes in geologic activity in and around the basin. After the earthquake, this hot spring began filling up with water and overflowing. With temperatures of 117 deg. C, the scalding hot steam from this geyser causes impressive eruptions on average every 9 days for about an hour to 75 minutes. Sometimes, shortly after an eruption of Spam Geyser, Explosive can be seen splashing jets up to 3 meters high, even when Explosive wouldn't normally be ready to erupt. These minor eruptions can cause the major eruptions, which normally jet water up to 45 meters, to be less powerful. These large eruptions have deposited a large amount of sinter around the pool, the heated water carrying it killing several nearby trees.

Explosive Geyser was named for the noises that can be heard coming from the underwater vent. Similar to Sawmill, located in Earth's Upper Geyser Basin, it makes a thumping sound, except it is several times louder. It also frequently makes what has been described as a "loud growling sound" during its eruptions.

To detect an oncoming eruption, watch for an early eruption of Spam Geyser, if this eruption persists for more than 2 eruption cycles (about 15 hours), it is likely that an eruption of Explosive Geyser is going to be soon. Although larger and also connected, unlike Spam, Explosive Geyser does not affect Srsbizniz.

Several other minor geysers affected by Explosive are located nearby, including Vatallus and Praetiam.

A smart one you are.
