When you enter any room and you're looking into said room, when do you ever consider the far side of said room the front? And why would that be any different for the Oryx room? Oryx is in the back of the room.

  • 1.) it's not a room. 2.) it's not a room.

  • So when your in a classroom and the teacher says face the front of the room, you turn around and look at the door in the back?

  • Wherever you enter the room from is the technical front of the room. Wherever they orient their desks and everything becomes their version of the front but the room itself still goes front=door and back=far side. Because you always move front to back.

  • It's not a room. It's closer to a deck or porch. When you exit your house into a desk or porch, are you in the front of it or the back of it. I personally prefer to think of it as an auditorium/amphitheater. If I had front row seats to view Saturn in that area, they'd be on the opposite end of the area from where we enter. Therefore front is closest to Saturn and where oryx initially makes an appearance and back is farthest from Saturn and where the doors are.

  • The auditorium example is a good way to look at it. I still say that Oryx is in the back of the room, though ;)

  • As long as everyone on the raid team is on the same page it doesn't matter what you call it. I was on a team that labeled the platforms 1 2 3 4 with 1 being closest to the entrance on the left and 4 being farthest on the left going counter clockwise

  • What if there are two doors into said room? Doors do not determine front/back, focal point does. Oryx is the focal point, hence Oryx is front.

  • But if we were to enter a room together and stand by the doorway and I told you to go to the back of the room, you're going to walk to the other side of the room.

  • No, I would go opposite to the focal point. If their was a TV in the room I would go to the opposite side from it (the TV).

  • So when you walked into school, sat down at your desk, and your teacher said "alright class turn towards the front of the room" you did a 180 in your desk and faced the person behind you like a dumbass?

  • Depends on where the door is in relation to the teacher. If the door is adjacent to the teacher's desk, then yes, that makes sense to say "come to the front of the class".

  • No. What the argument actually is perception. There is no answer. I showed you a definition of when front isn't what you said. Works in movie theaters, schools, pretty much anywhere that has a point of focus. Front is perspective. That's why you don't say front or back. It's close and far. Or SeaReapers platform. Don't be the guy using the retarded term.
