  • The six months have more or less passed. Does anyone know if Blake actually went thru with this? Last I heard, he was doing programming on Civ IV Colonization. Specifics were lacking, although, as a guess, I would suspect he was programming the AI once again.

    • In egypt, I once saw a muslim woman, in full fashion (meaning that black cover-it-all-piece-of-cloth - shador ?) riding an old motorbike with a passenger attachment at the side.

      EDIT: @ blaupanzer: I guess he did go, but when he arrived at the temple, instead of the other monks, all he found was a bunch of unwashed, long-bearded nerds, sitting on their hair, playing BTS, who only looked up with confused, searching, but empty eyes everytime they heard the sound of buddhism spread, as if they wanted to say ´there´s something familiar about this sound, but i quite cant figure out or remember what and why´. Those brief seconds of doubt and confusion were then always followed by returning total attention back on the screen and a constant mumble that went something like ´two more axemen and he´s dead meat...´ or ´no stone, no pyramids...´... Remarkably, they all played seperate SP-matches...

      What happened to Blake after that is yet unknown... Most probably he spent the whole time since then wandering around aimlessly, sobbing ´What have i done ?! What have i done ?!´...

        • yeah like that. didnt know the word...

          EDIT: And now i know, too, why the AI always seems to prefer Buddhism over Hinduism. Despite the fact, that ´insiders´ claim, that the chances for each to be picked by the AI are equal, the AI in my games always goes for meditation first. I can only guess, that Blake managed to slip in some code there, that went unnoticed by the other devs, to leave a personal footprint...

          • Hmm.. I missed this. Not too strange since I haven't been around here in ages it feels like.

            Anyways, if you haven't left yet Blake.. good luck and all. Not sure if you remember me by now but I was involved in the whole stella polaris thing as well..

            Anyone have any idea if he actually left?
