[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mark Nguyen: [QB] [Spoilers through season seven] That's not a bad idea.. It's already strange enough that the address has to be keyed in in a particular sequence. Mind you, the "coordinates" system has been basically invalidated by seven years of the show - Jackson's theory established in the movie doesn't hold true here, and in the series was probably just lucky that he got it right the first time. Indeed, it's shown in the season seven finale that at least some symbols are used as an alphabet by the Ancients Likewise, I'm thinking that Ra somehow disconnected the Abydos gate from the gate system, possibly somehow isolating it from the other gates and system lords. It was basically his own private naquadah mine there anyway, so maybe he tried to use the gate exclusively to himself for a period. This would explain why the Abydos gate didn't go anywhere with the addresses from the cartouche that Daniel discovered. When Apophis came through in the premiere, the gate re-established communication with the network and re-aligned itself to work with normal addresses. Likewise, the Alpha gate on Earth would eventually re-align once it was reactivated enough times (once in the 40s and once in the early 90s wasn't enough). The Beta gate was probably active as recently as 1000 years ago, and wouldn't have as severe an alignment problem especially as it was hooked up to its DHD. Mark [/QB][/QUOTE]
