Regarding Operatives code numbers for IC stories

GeoModder · July 4, 2004, 08:34

Kody proposed to write IC stories for publication in the public forum Pholus Magazine. I propose (for participation in this) that the interested ones of us chooses a code number so instead of using a nick, this code number can be used. Some of us already have choosen one. Edit this post and give yourself a number when interested. 001 and 007 are to remain open.

001: honorary code for our beloved spiritual leader Roze.
002: 'M'oderator Hercules
003: Sinder Makahlua
004: open slot...
005: DataJack FlameFlash
006: Datajack Icarus
007: honorary code for DataJack James Bond
008: open slot...
009: Infotrader/Infiltrator GeoModder
...
020: DataJack AdamTG02
...
024: DataJack Fallen Angel

...
042: Sinder Enigma_Nova

Edit: Write-in at some slots...

Can't we make our own numbers, like 133.7?

GeoModder · July 4, 2004, 13:43

The point is that we know about who of us we're writing, and the other factions can only guess. Any other faction member seeing your choice would simply know it is you, Enigma.

Enigma_Nova · July 4, 2004, 13:51

Wouldn't that be a good thing, to be known?
If you wish to give me a number, either make it 042 or 133.7 .

I won't be writing the IC myself; I'll just pop in from time to time to nitpick about how I've been incorrectly portrayed.

I'll tkae 003 thanks ^^

Enigma_Nova · July 4, 2004, 14:01

GW with the edit, Geo.
I hope 042 isn't -too- predictable...

Whoops: best go and edit other thread

How about a code for a fallen angel?

Hercules · July 6, 2004, 16:15

Now that would be 666.

Snowflake · July 6, 2004, 16:20

You know being not so familiar with western culture, does 666 mean death? Or unlucky? Or what exactly?

Enigma_Nova · July 6, 2004, 17:21

It's the number of Devils and Satan and stuff.

Snowflake · July 6, 2004, 18:00

Oh my. Hercules you are not suggesting I'm the devil himself?

Enigma_Nova · July 6, 2004, 19:19

The Devil herself.

No, just a demon of some sorts.
You could be the Archdemon of Threadjacking.

Snowflake · July 6, 2004, 23:44

I was merely asking for a code.

Makahlua · July 7, 2004, 01:05

It's the 'number of the beast' and allegedly a sign found on servants of the devil. At least that's what they thought a few hundred years ago, and it's kinda stuck in European/American Christianity

Enigma_Nova · July 7, 2004, 03:01

Dumb stuff happens like that.
Numbers don't mean anything beyond their numerical value,
save for certain numbers (1337) which have become as words.

Hercules · July 7, 2004, 05:03

The devil/satan was originally an 'good' angel but then became a fallen angel.

Hercules · July 7, 2004, 05:18

Honghu:

You used to be, 12, then you became 333333333 ( Three hugger) and now you are 024, ie always under 25.

Enigma_Nova · July 7, 2004, 11:15

...Three hugger...
/me slaps Hercules around a bit with a large trout

Thank you Dear Hercules.

For the tangent: 666:

Sign of the devil: one less than perfect (777). The sign of the Antichrist, those who do not allow themselves to be marked will not be able to eat, buy clothes, etc.

Some Biblical scholars now theorize that the mark of the beast could be a universal world currency... money is the root of all evil, after all. Money = power... power = corruption...

And I very much like the number idea!
