We thought you are God of mercy. We understand your greatness and we feel that you do not require everyday worship like Tassadar. You will always remain First God to us.
But Googlie did become God before you Tass ? Therefore he is First God.

He is not!
Obviously you use the old system.
Download Tasslove.exe for the new system.
Tass is merely assistant-to-God!!!
Hmph! Have you seen Googlie build the magifiscent temples all around planet?
Have you seen Googlie destroy these temples, and then bring them back to life?
Have you seen Googlie turn your citizens into organics?
But most importantly of all....Have you seen Googlie punish you by taking away all those Hiverian women in your closet? HMM?
And losing your most precious faction!!??

Diana sigma-8 the vice-president of the corporation
Leading anchor Tom Breakaw and talk show host Conan Omicron Brian

Your anchor tonight is Tom Breakaw
Good Evening everyone.
Every once a while we ponder how free we really are. You with your personal function and duty and the cyborg next door with his. We here at Acta Binaria have recently been thinking a lot about our freedom as a News Network too. Not long ago our new Informations Function declared ABC to be annexed to the state run 3-D. After intence talks between him and our president Kassad omicron-9 the ABCs independency was secured with contract signed for 100 years. Also situation of KHO an independent organ of ABC has been solved and they status remains as is.
We have here to comment this deal the vice president of ABC Diana sigma-8.
-Good evening Diana and welcome to the show.
-Thank you Tom.
-You must feel like a great burden would has fallen from your shoulders to use this archaic expression.
-Very much so yes. I think this was a great victory for the independence of reporting and news casting. Now we can concentrate on practising good journalism instead of worrying about the heat from the cabinet.
-In fact the corporation is run by a member of the cabinet, Second Function kassad omicron-9. Does his presence interfere with the journalistic freedom?
-Not that I or anyone else has noticed. He doesnt tell us what to say or anything like that. If you think he is writing this right now too, your wrong. He doesnt like write what we should say and what not to say.
-I see, Thank you for your time Diana Sigma-8.
-Thank you Tom.

Your God Get's His Own News Agency! By: Your god, of course.
On Wednesday it was announced by I, your savior, that the Communist Novosti Obsluzhivani would become an independant organ of the ABC News Network.
"It's a historic day for all of us. Imagine God running news about Heaven, Earth, and Chiron! This is going to be much better than that....whatever the vile one has planned. Let's all read KOH!" Said a proud disciple of the Lord God at the Daily Tithing Meeting in the CyConian Procreation Unit.
People celebrate the independance of the KOH - News Agency of the Lord God!
But what will become of 3D? The Lord cares not. However now all CyConian citizens will be free to read fair and balanced news from Chrion's #1 source for news - KOH!

All CyCon soldiers, Love the Lord God Tassadar, For he is our god. We denounce false gods, And pledge our life to our god, The Lord Tassadar.
Give a round of applause for POEMWRITER.DLL, an extension of WORSHIP.EXE which you download every day!
Well, that's it for now. Stay tuned for another issue of KOH - Chirons source for fair and balanced news: KOH! Of course, when your god feels more creative.

But, doesn't this mean that GodGooglie is more benevolent for mere mortals then? And that you, as Assistant God, still have to learn the true meaning of being a 'God'. Remember, you have your Communist Background to dispense of...

Sigh, when will you halfhuman learn to use your brain. If you only half watched the history of Pravda, you'd know that Pravda IS independant.
/me starts calculating and assessing the above remark, a solution is computed after 1,34196 sec.
The following output has the highest probability of completiness on your remark:
- Most CPU citizens are no longer halfhuman, and those not are off course allowed to stay as they wish (I refer to citizens in PUT and PEACE sections of CPU).
- I partly agree in your remark of not using our whole brain. Their is a tendency to use our implants more offen then our biological counterpart since it works quicker, gives overall better assesments and solutions to everyday hazards.
- Be assured that we tripplecheck every remark that catches our attention, and in doing so the last part of your response has given the assessment that Pravda is indeed independant, but only from the majority of Hive citizens, in short, the leading 'class' of your society prints in Pravda, but not the common citizen.
But still, I loved reading it...

The beauty of being both organic and cybernetic is that we can have enhanced feelings. The love we cybernetic-organic beings are capable of is no longer limited to only chemical causes of purely organic organisms. The love we can have is much enhanced by logic of digital processing of data, by its efficiency and greater capabilities. Organics may have only a tiny 'feeling' of it - when using some of the devices, external devices, such as a telescope, or simple hand-held calculator, or glasses to fix eye vision problems. Organics negate many of the technological devices making them stronger and allowing them to understand the surrounding world better, yet still organics use those devices.

Now I wonder if the Hive will risk setting up a 'state-independent, not funded' newsmagazine.
Perhaps the true difference of Police State and Democracy can be seen now...
I think of purely independent "Planetary Newspaper". no control by any faction, maybe even kinda underground. "Free Zone" where no war could reach, where members of all factions, even those fighting with each other, would have neutral ground to speak freely. However nothing like 'Planetary Council' voice - where politics might have played main role, but something where a simple member of each faction or factionles human, drone, cyborg, of conscious xenofungus branch or "revolutionary" mindworm which instead of planting horror in victims brain would plant melodrama or comedy or romance for its unlimited love for people, would be able to speak, write.....
something like "Freelance Voice of Planet"

This response does not seem consistent with the background literature on Prime Function Aki Zeta 5 in SMAX. I seem to recall that the Prime Function spoke of the superiority of the loss of passion and artistry of "right side brain functions" as part of the transition to a cybernetic lifeform and what she felt was the desirability of this transition. The reduction in population growth the Cybernetic Consciousness receives in the game is consistent with this conception of the faction's character.
