She's not an exile in the strictest sense. Neither is she a 'machine program'. But she has characteristics of each, and she can't be pigeonholed into one or the other. She may be the mother of the Matrix - realising humanity needs choice t...
The anomaly was inherent in the equation - in that everything had to come down to Yes or No, Good or Bad, 0 or 1 - essentially 'Accept the Matrix or Not?' It was a choice available to everyone at a nearly unconscious level, so most simply...

Knowledge is power. He was clearly a program with knowledge in the first place, then was exiled to the Matrix - most exiles come through the Merovingian, so he had the wherewithall to do it all by himself. It was early on in the Matrix cyc...
Interesting topic Tefnutt wrote: This is a question I have had for quite a while, and which I need to be answered so that everyone agrees, as I am using it in an upcomming story. What happens to the code of your RSI, or that of an unknown...
I'm hoping that all reward items are co-ordinated with one another, so that you can wear a 'reward outfit' rather than having a totally mismatched one.
I realise that this may be seriously over-thinking it and going beyond the bounds of 'fitting it into the film'. But let's assume that each succesful cycle was roughly 100 years. That makes 600 years between the failed Matricies and the pr...
Incredible, and to think I decried Anome when I first heard about this - now things have become clearer. Cypherites, if you want to go back to sleep so badly, DO SO. But it was your egotistical, arrogant belief that you could force a man o...
I find it helps to watch the Animatrix with the sound turned on, and listening to the dialogue. I can't see why people wouldn't get the Animatrix, it was all pretty well defined O_o
Mr Rhineheart's speech was brilliant scripting. It's effectively a synopsis of who and what Neo is, or will turn out to be in the film. They're telling you exactly what the film is going to be about, without telling you. It's fun to rewatc...
Here's something that's always bugged me. The Keymaker states that the only way to get to the room of doors is to disable the power, open the first door, then find the second and open it. But ... Firstly, Smith is in there when they arrive...
Smith was already incredibly powerful. The Agents were feared by the Awakened - who in turn were far more powerful than any normal human being. Smith was a sort of god-like figure all along, he was just bound by the rules of the system. Wh...
It couldn't be a new One. The One was the 'sum of remainder of the equation' at the centre of the Matrix's programming, that allowed him the control he demonstrated. I imagine that his control of the sentinels was simply some sort of partl...
The time between sexxoring and annihilation of the Logos was a matter of hours. There would barely be a baby to save. If she was pregnant before that, she would never have left Zion for Reloaded/Revolutions - nobody who is carrying a child...
More money than sense then, no offence to Warboy I have a Dell 2001FP and it is the bees knees, dogs danglies, whatever you want to call it Their new 30" widescreen looks hawt <3 I've seen dead Maxtor and IBM (though now Hitachi with bette...
Actually a dual-GPU card does exist (I think it's dual-7800 cores) from .. ASUS? may be mistaken. There are no dual-7900 cards, and the dual-7800 that does exist cannot be run in SLI, and I think it also has to run in a specific motherboar...
Wow, only just read all of this and it's pretty darn impressive!! Not sure if it's been said, but in the first post I picked out something - may just be me being picky/semantics/whatever. You state that the concept of the One was created,...
I still don't quite "get" the rules governing transferring things between hostile/non-hostile. I'm not a PvPer. I have maybe 130CQs. Yet I got to 50 without thinking "man this is hard coz of everyone ganking me all the time", and it's also...
These latest events are disturbing. Naturally those who cannot see but five minutes in front of their faces will see this as a wonderful occurance - the end of the Matrix that they have longed for, with no regard for the ultimate survival...
The Children of Zion (Vector) are in the process of moving to a new home on the web. As part of this I've been archiving all our Roleplaying/Literature and moving it to its new location. This forum is free for all to read, but if you wish...
How has the XP changed? I ask because you said within 2 hours you got to Level 5 - under the old system (assuming you collect all the tokens for the Industrial Clothing) it takes me about an hour to get to Level 5 just killing NPCs. I'd im...
"It is time." Agent Gray intoned, placing a hand on LostProphet's shoulder - he had seen Agent Pace use such a guesture as a measure of comfort, for what it was worth. "There's nothing to stop me from just turning right around as soon as I...
White light. Blurred shapes faded in and out of view, somehow familiar yet not. "Do we have a stable signal?" said a voice, floating whimsically as the shapes around him bobbed and weaved and melted into one another. "Not yet. We're runnin...

Nel eyed Agent Gray suspiciously as she stood with him and Baku in the small office in Kedemoth. "Thanks to the data you've provided us with from the opening of that door, we've traced remnants of code at an exit point to what went through...
"So," Baku began, "What exactly is going on this time?" The cigarette was dabbed into the ashtray, as if it carried something more significant than an old woman smoking herself into an early grave. "Honestly Baku? This one's a bit of a mys...
Nel's car drew to a halt suddenly, the driver giving a strong blast of the horn as it did so. Picking herself out of the footwell, she rapped on the glass partition. "What in the hell is going on ..." The doors clicked open and Nel was pul...
Baku waited, somewhat nervously, on the bench next to the Mara West hardline. The door opposite him opened and a figure strode out to meet him. "Agent Gray, thanks for coming." "I must admit, this is a little ... unconventional." Baku dipp...
The 'phone' began to ring onboard the Behemoth. Baku snatched the headset up and clicked the 'accept' button. A high pitched screeching noise burst from the headphones and he immediately tore the headset off again. The operator appeared ba...
The car came to an abrupt halt. LostProphet and Nel stepped out and looked up at the Ascension Monument, specifically the door at the top. "I always wondered what that was for," he mused, rolling the warm key around in his pocket. "Many th...
"Be calm," a voice said as Prophet struggled to rise, "We have restored your Self Image, but you have not yet fully healed." LostProphet opened his eyes. His head was resting in the lap of a pretty young woman, and he smiled weakly. "Who a...
Prophet landed awkwardly on the terrace of the Kedemoth West building and blew out a breath, trying to ignore the pain in his feet. The soles of his poor excuse for shoes had been torn away about ten jumps ago and his feet were now blister...
Baku stood on the Operations deck of the Behemoth , arms folded nervously as his operator - along with every other CoZ vessel at Broadcast Depth - ran a scan of the Matrix for LostProphet. "**bleep**." he said as the screens turned blank m...
"You little **bleep**!" LostProphet exploded as he stumbled into the corridor. He swung around and felt his fist connect with Grayscale's chin. "Maybe I am," he responded from the floor, "but recognition of the fact is not going to help yo...
The room was silent, the only sound came from the pyres burning out on the street below, and some sporadic gunfire in the distance. "Say that again," PBlade said, finally breaking the silence and gently moving Echosnare's gun away from Gra...
Heh, thanks for not chewing me out I was going to make a suggestion (more of a peace offering idea) but I'm sure it is: a) Against company policy b) Likely to placate the playerbase and yet upset the impatient ones You have a production sc...
I like to think that I practice what I preach - that is, not complaining too loudly about problems and asking for pie-in-the-sky ideas because I know that you guys don't have a massive team and unlimited budget. But I'm disappointed. IMO,...
The light was gone now, the MegaCity plunged into an oppressive, smoggy darkness. At least it was in Westview. The fires dotted around Rogers Way cast eerie shadows over decrepit buildings and cracked asphalt as unidentified beasts of the...
Flood stood before his master, fists curling and uncurling nervously as the Merovingian swallowed the contents of his cocktail glass. "Now then, Flood," he placed the glass on the arm of the large red leather sofa, "our plan comes to fruit...
Luneran's fist slammed into the so-called Elite Guard's chest and he staggered back into the wall, the umistakable, sickening sound of a shattering breastbone making him grimace, before a swift sky-high sidekick implanted his head in the p...
**24 hours earlier** "That's me in the corner, that's me in the spotlight, losing my religion" Echosnare shot a glance at LostProphet, sitting beside him in the front of the 1965 Lincoln Continental that currently cocooned some of the Chil...
I like this idea, suggested it in private. CR2.0 isn't *just* about tactic scores now, but players are still stuck in that mindset. Removing the opportunity to focus on it - at least in the short term - should help people (by force, perhap...
Sony isn't poor. But no corporation, no matter how well-off, will run something for free when it's a cash-hog even WHILST people are still paying for it.
