It's a bit depressing to find new bots every time I return to the boards... but I take a bit of pointless satisfaction in rating every one of them as an Imp.

I wish there was just a "Smite" option instead of actual ratings.

Back on topic, I'm getting impressed with EndeavorBot's level of sophistication. Why can't normal bots be that clean?

You know, you almost had me until,

...and then I realized that what you said made very little sense.

So... yeah. Personally, I'm not one for killing bystanders (alleged innocence aside). I've never incited a town against me, never randomly sacked a village, and I try my level best to avoid unnecessary bloodshed (like Thorius Goodman's quest).

Of course, if someone tries to attack me, they're going down. :P

Er, I know it's destroyed, but think of it as a fun project to grow a new one in it's place. Sort of like, uh, a metaphor for a new year. I'm so deep.

Right. That'll be back to normal in... well, a few decades. Pass me the seeds, and I'll get to work on it.

In a galaxy, far, far... well, okay, Cleveland... I was born. Eighteen years later, I stand relatively unscathed in the middle of General and celebrate the fact that I'm still breathing and able to spam. So, in other words, w00t.

Also, happy birthday to Sherlock, who I know shares this birthday!

Yeah, he just launched into the story. Didn't really explain anything, used tons of terms that only the characters themselves would understand, and did very improbable things. Come to think of it, it's kind of like looking at SW from the outside.

I felt more grounded when I was reading about life on the other planet.

Never explaining things is Macleod's hallmark; I got rather fed up with it and stopped reading after struggling for a couple of months.

Okay, you're right... I just can't wrap my mind around that book. Any book that tries to go all fancy "we've-got-computers-in-our-brains" crashes...

Following this failure, I think I'll go for Jack McDevitt's Infinity Beach next. After all, I loved Eternity Road, though I don't believe the two are related.

I'm not much for alien psychology... but then again, it's somewhat prominent in what I'm reading now: Learning the World by Ken MacLeod. Half of the action takes place on a planet populated by avian humanoids... and their psychology is a bit different, it seems. But the way it's handled is interesting... it's never explained directly.

You know, the funny thing is that even if the huge thread dies a classic UBB death, Aran will probably have a mostly complete copy of it anyway. Nonetheless, a nice show of initiative, Nioca.
