Knotnu's introduction

Welcome to my introduction!

I like my Knotnu name because most of the time I like pranking my friends with it.
A beginner worldbuilder so the link bellow will show how beginner I am.
Which me the beginner worldbuilder would ask:
  1. How does one world becomes 2.2x bigger than the Earth?
  2. What is world building (still trying to discover more)
  3. Why are there tags bellow and can I use it over here in the intro (not planning to)?
  4. And I think that is all I have for questions
Some other unrelated stuff that isn't worldbuilding that I still love:
  1. Love exploring
  2. Computers
  3. Coding
  4. Drones
  5. Fixing computers
  6. Making a site

I think that is what I want to show for now.

Welcome!

1. Depends a little on what you mean with 2.2X bigger. Generally, it's thought that having a radius of about 2X earth is about the biggest rocky planets can get, so 2.2 times the earth radius is about the upper limit of what you'd find. If you mean in terms of mass, then that limit sits at about 10X earth mass, so you'd be good there. Though as with everything, there's some variation possible.

As to how it happens, simply in the same way all planets form. When a star is formed, the left over material coaleses into planets that orbit that star. Depending on how much material a forming planet gathers it becomes bigger or smaller. That's pretty much it really.

2. world building is the broad term that refers to everything a writer does to invent the setting for his story. This can be as broad as what the world looks like, flora, fauna, magic system. But also as small as what the four different streets are called that make up the small vilage the protagonist grew up in.

3. not sure. I always assume they just happen.

Good to have you here
There are plenty of world builders around here [shyly raises a hand].
