Anniversary Event the Second: Screenshots.

Superb, Phantom. Simply superb. My biggest problem with the event is I'm not level 50. What does that mean? No PvP! Noes! And going to Mara C and asking for a beatdown is often taken too far.

[7.1.3] Okay, we're gonna make some DJs - Syntax - 3/22/07

Meh. I honestly don't see anything wrong with it. A slightly demented program who likes to have fun. And he's the freaking Effectuator. He brings back the balls to canon. The Matrix is a simulation where rules change, bend and get destroye...

The Feasability of Reinsertion

I don't think the Machines control who rejects the system and who doesn't. They tolerate the 1% for the sake of the system. Depending on whether they accept their old life or wish for a new life changes alot. For a new life, things have to...

Death of a program.

"Do you think that's air you're breathing?" While the scene isn't entirely embedded in my mind, I think one of the points of the scene is the fact that the brain is completely fooled into believing it's breathing, making it real - similar...

Do we really want Neo alive?

I have to agree with Trax, to a degree that I was going to say the same thing, there and there abouts. Except end of beta, for I wasn't there. I just listened on RFZ. So now I'll just hum. Hmm-hmm-hm-h-hmmmm.

[6.2.4] I can release you from this, Owl - Recursion - 12/11/06

Disgusting. While punishing the fallen is a simple fact of life, keeping to your word is required, lest everyone turn into savages. The clear dominance the Merv had over the Owl shows you that he would have told him, the Merv's lies or not...

Who let the zombies out? (Groan,GroanGroanGroan)

You mean Chernobyl? I must admit, I thought it'd be part of the city. And it'd kind of make sense after Niobe and Ghost, well, pulled the plug on the Matrix power plant, if you remember.

The Other Side of the Looking Glass - Friday, October 20, 2006

Seems obvious to me. Not only is the idea of stocking water and medicine in a disaster zone always suggested, antibiotics = get rid of zombie-ness, and; holy water = Well, time to go Father Grigori on their arses.

Dismayed!

I kind of see the point. My issue is not with RP (I'm not an RP'er... to a certain extent... Not the point), but the fact that people's motivation is the reward, not the opportunity to gain insight into the other organisation, or fill in t...

Image Retrieval - May 24, 2006

I would find it much more intriguing if that location was reached via a white door, than just a hardline. That would add some paranoid intrigue to the proceedings. As an aside, I actually experienced a bug the other day. When I went to sel...

Neo's phonecall

I was under the illusion the phonecall was directly to the system, though in hindsight it may have been to some security service directly monitered by the system.

Awakened points?

Ideally, you need to level all your abilities. Yes, that means it will end up costing you more each level, but that's just how it works. Of course, technically you don't have to level your abilities, you'd just be insane not to.

Previous versions of the Matrix

Yes, he did say that it was simply the way he preferred to count them. As for the duration of the iterations, I'd put it as about 70-80 years, assuming that the Zion Council were the first freed to restart the cycle.

Time Gap

I think it'd have to be a bit longer than that, for a number of reasons. First and foremost, as the Commandos are all but confirmed to be exiled Sentinels and such, I don't think the Machines would render them obselete so quick (and they w...

Merovingian house - not a construct

It's probable it's some of the Effectuator's magic workings. It took some highly technical tools to get us Machines to even detect him, so it's probable that the same can be said for the chateau. As for the undetectability of Neo, Programm...

The Witch

Anything which manages to parody Jack Thompson AND have him Smith-ficated is canon enough for me. But as for the redpill claims, that was probably just a bit of the ol' smack-talk the Merv be laying down.

I'm not sure the One is the error itself so much as the solution to the error. And the intention of the Oracle was to prevent the loss of all the lives when the system crashed upon itself, because the Architect couldn't think outside the b...

Valid points, but not entirely. I believe the Oracle said something along the lines of "You felt the source, but weren't ready for it" (also, remember this was after his meeting, therefore he should of gone to the source already). I could...

Both excellent points, especially the latter, I didn't think about that (plus, what with some of the Akido-based buffs in-game, it's a big possibility).

Ahem. The Special Agents were also the viral-child of Smith/DE. He infected the Agent spawn protocols. As for Gray, he has already been checked, by the Protector Program. Does no-one ever review the facts?
