Thanks Neoteny

Interesting! Glad you could get some use out of an old picture.

Well put. I can't say you're making the wrong choice, honestly.

The point is that for all the flak, all the admonishment, all the threats of "we'll-come-get-you!~" no one does anything. Ever. And it's pathetic. No one has ambition, no one has goals, no one has morality anymore. Or maybe no one believes...

One hour under all of your noses. And it successfully detonated. If anything, this was more of a social experiment than a part of the actual campaign, but I'll be damned if it didn't work past my expectations anyhow. Pathetic. Simply pathe...

You can speak to me whenever you like, in whatever method you prefer. The mission will continue regardless of words, however.

The Trust - Zion

What makes us different from the majority of Zion? We could give a good goddamn about where wireframe people and interface programs come from, what they are, and what they do. We don't trust a program to do the job for us. We don't trust a...

These are the greatest reasons for a merge/transfer. I've wished I could transfer to Syntax for over a year now, pretty much ever since Machinists disappeared from Recursion, since I've noticed they're a mostly class element over there. I...

The Watchmen

According to that article, those who saw it were perfectly happy with it. Sounds like it'll play better in theaters, and work better for the big screen in my opinion.

I have spoken with Qui personally and at great length about his choice to stop. I can only approve of his decision. As I never intended to involve anyone beyond myself in this mission, it will continue as planned.

Hm. I don't entirely know what to make of these images I've received. It seems like the one near the box may have gotten his attention and he simply found the one by the bench. As far as I can tell the one near the box went off, though. Wi...

Halloween Masks, 2008 ** Potential Mask Spoilers **

I got Seraph, Shimada, and Cryptos from zombies. They seem to be the common ones this year. No luck with Veil, Oracle, the Merv, or the unknown seventh just yet. Snagged a Trainman from a pumpkin earlier, though.

[11.2.5] Mach mission feedback thread: "Antigenic Sin"

It is activatable. But according to the mission it's consumable, and I've only got one, so I'm not using it for no reason. And yeah, hopefully this or something similarly nice will find its way into Zion/Merv hands.

[11.2.5] Zion mission feedback thread: "101"

Honestly? Weak. Just like every Zion mission since the end of chapter 8. There was a sense of "you're going to find something out!" only to get a "knock knock." and nothing more.

It's better not to do escort missions at that level. The gang members will just eat 'em up.

The quests and org rewards sound promising. The change to events does not sound promising at all, and, to be brutally honest, neither do low-rent cinematics. I can understand the frustration with events getting dull, but I think there's a...

[11.1.3] Zion mission feedback thread: "Atypical"

I agree, this mission really had much more of a sense of Zion breaking new ground than some of the older ones, which were sort of casting Zion as one step behind (i.e. everything learned from the misson amounted to either nothing, or thing...
