while watching one of my favourite show yesterday (the mythbusters...  ) i got this idea...
what SC myths are out there? i would have said beating a Chmmr with a ZFP or finishing the game without ever going to the starbase, but theyr'e not myths anymore...
i couldn't come up with anything, i'm hoping you guys might...

My favorite myth was always the cloaking device for the precursor vessel.

Neonlare:
well, technically the airlou could simply orbit a planet waiting for the chmmr to crash into it but i'm not sure you could fairly call that a victory
XR4-IT:
hmmm, care to elaborate? i have to say i haven't heard of that one.

yep, the BSS are definately a myth, but what about the Sa-Matra's Toruses of destruction?
well i can alos think of something that's not a myth but it would seem downright impossible - mining and getting all the bio's available on the starmap... but on the other hand if someone was crazy enough to beat the game without going to the starbase someone just might try this, i'm not sure if there is enough time available, though... what's the max amount of time you can get, anyway?

Minerals? If it's possible to hit every planet in the time limit (by loading up on fuel, planning your route, etc) And you only define "gather" as "put in a storage bay" you could gather everything, and dump them, leaving out the necessity of returning to the starbase. Of course, you'll not know the numbers to crunch until someone starts looking at the problem; and this one seems a tad too boring for anyone to want to try.

It is impossible. I got on a kick one game to mine/bio all the planets around white stars, and only got to 3/4 of the map before the end of 2158 happened.
The thing is though that there is about 100000x more RU/bio on the map than you really need to complete the game in a style accustomed to interstellar kings - I had about 750K RU at the time excess. So trying to mine / bio that much really is an exercise in pointlessness and stupidity.
