I have already PMed Cedayon, I will post on the OTF, and have posted on CGN about our faction, now we have the private forum. If I write a bit, can I PM it to you (Maniac) so you can PM anyone else you think might be interested? Thanks


BTW: Cedayon has said this

I would like to be involved, but I can't promise that I'll really be available to do much other than make suggestions on the private board and create improved s in TKG's labs. If that's ok, I would like to join, though I'll forego the cybernetic implants if it's all the same to the collective

[Drogue]

I have posted on the OTF but to little avail. Should I post on the AC - General and AC Multiplaying threads too? There isn't one on the first page, but I am no sure if it was ever posted.

Edit: Have just posted on both. I can't see one about it at all with a post in the last 10 days, and we want more players, so I thought it would be worth it.

[Cedayon]

If we have 8 active (ie voting) players, then we're only about 3-4 short of what the whole DG had towards the end of the first one

[Drogue]

You have a point. However, more would be nice

[Cedayon]

Well, I thought the recruitment problem over, and I came to the conclusion that several members of the University of Planet would likely wish to join the collective if they were given proper... motivation.
After going through some of TKG's laboratory data and running some simulations, I decided that the introduction of 's into the University would do the trick, so I constructed a program that would automatically produce them, with the intent of transmitting it to the University network:


Alas, a test run resulted in the breaking stasis and causing a segmentation fault... thankfully the subsequent dump of the fission core cut power to the bio-support unit caused the to expire before it could fully form and wreak havoc.

However, with the program's transfer to the UOP net, I think we should see some new recruits soon

(/joke)

[Drogue]

I think that's pretty obviously a joke

A great plan, you are learning from TKG well (or maybe it has turned the other way, and he is learning). Have you been studying Finland again? A quaint little place that was, I can't see what's so evil about it, but then I never was that good at guessing why humans thought things.

The one minor problem being that defections are not allowed Thus they could not join us.

[Cedayon]

I wasn't think of defections, per se, I was thinking of "Ahhhhhh!!! It's a , run away!"s ... and given our faction's similarities I calculated most of them would flee here

The point, however, is now moot, as the has entered an argument with Archaic... it might end before the heat death of the universe, but I'm not counting on it

[Drogue]

Or it might cause the heat death of the universe

[Cedayon]

Indeed, the has transmitted back the current code it's stuck in:

#include "Archaic.h"
#include "argumentAlgorithm.h"
#include "adHominem.h"
#include "strawman.h"
#include "baseballBat.h"

int main(Issue argument) {
   for(int n=0;n < 10;n++) {
	   counter(Archaic.getArguments(argument)[n]);
	   if (n + 1 > 9) n=0;
   }
}

This could take quite a while

[Drogue]

#include "adHominem.h"
#include "strawman.h"
#include "baseballBat.h"

That's too tempting funny

I am sure that if I understood code I would find it even more funny

[Cedayon]

The main problem lies in this:

if (n + 1 > 9) n=0;

The argument's only over when n reaches 10, but when n reaches 9 (Archaic's last argument), he just goes back to 0 (his first argument) and it starts all over again... eventually the counter arguments might fill up all available memory on the UOP system and it'll just crash, but that could take a while if Zak put as much RAM in that thing as I think he did...

I wasn't trying to stir things up between you and the Drones (honestly .... ..... ) when I posted this in the general forum 'Droneology 101 thread'

There was an old drone called Domai
who had a bar-code over one eye
which he tried to decipher
by sitting beside her -
Aki Zeta, who said - It's just Pi

I liked it A nice twist to the Ace one

uhm, can anyone download the attachment in the turn report thread (our private one, not the public one)? it says i dont have permission

until we can get markos to sort it out, can you email me the save drug?
