OOC

The anti-EMP argument used was that it disabled all of their own defences. That's why they didn't have EMP necklaces or anything.

There were five ships sent out to EMP the sentinals but Bane took care of that. Otherwise those ships might have destroyed the drillers, and five entire waves of sentinels.

I think even with EMP missiles, etc, they would not have lasted much longer. Each EMP would have to be triggered a long way from any other. You could place a chain of EMP bombs along the approach to Zion, but the machines would just send in sentinals one-by-one to trigger them.

You could fire missiles out towards the machines, but since the explosions could not overlap some sentinels would get in between the blasts. And again, the sentinels might just approach one by one. Missiles are more expensive than bullets, and Zion wouldn't be able to produce too many. Remember that there were 250,000 sentinels. Even if they came in waves of 100, you would need 2,500 missiles to get them all.

Figured I'd say something unrelated and boring, since I've got nothing better to do.

Winamp 5 is good. I don't NEED it, its just something I'm going to have to get used to using now. But its got neat features, and runs of Winamp 2, not 3. 3 was Ass.

There is a Castor and Pollux in the movie Face/Off, they're Brothers, and the two main bad guys.

Face/Off is a good movie.

Korn's new album, "Take a look in the mirror" is excellent, and worth paying me to copy. Or you could buy it, and get a free DVD with lots of cool stuff on it, like the Guitarist pretending to have sex with a stuffed sheep.
Oh, and you find out that the singer uses a lyrics prompt in concert, which is pretty funny. And at one point he was practicing singing, and was completely out of tune. He can scream on tune as much as he needs to, but trying to do appegios (SP?) and scales is torture for the ears. It's rather funny.

I'm going for a walk tomorrow (Saturday the 20th). Apparently there's a swimming hole near our place, so I'm gonna go look for it.

Is MR still going? Can't be bothered looking, but I'd assume so.

I'm gonna do that christmas thread. Everybody join in.

They Nuked the machines at the beginning of the war, according to the Animatrix. Nukes create an uncontrolled EMP. We should have won a long time ago. Unless I'm missing something here.

I seem to have missed some stuff. Not in this thread though.
Anyway, I just got back (from kerikeri, ironically.) To be honest, Kerikeri is not actually that much of a hole. It's actually kinda big.

I'm going away again soon. I don't know if I'll be able to get to a computer. Even if I can, I don't know whether I'll bother to post.

I will post somewhere else now.

PSPPSP: To Chris Wesley's real-life copunterpart - you've moved by now, right? where's your place? Do I care? If any or all of the above are true, would you tell me anyway?

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Chris, was this a deliberate typo?

No it wasn't. But I should say that it was, cos that seems better. "Yes it was a deliberate typo".

Oh, and your latest Bus Stops post was awesome. Please do more.

Does anyone know where everybody went? Did people suddenly discover that they had lives or something?
And whatever happened to Gerald? He can't honestly have gotten sick of posting in ooc threads?

I have 22 misquito bites on my left hand. I don't know how that happened.

Bus stop, yea... It would be more fun if there was a real Portia Fraser, but we're short of people fitting any description, let alone hot blonde girls. I don't know if the bus stop thread warrants sex scenes. Maybe somebody could make a sex thread. Now THAT would be interesting.

A sex thread? I was going to suggest exactly that idea to you, Tiberius. But I was afraid you might think I was trying to get you out of the way.

(Well, not a sex thread. I imagined "Frost's Female Form Thread". But not all that different.)

And Axle might join in.

Erm, might bring Stevie.

Frost's Female Form?
I don't get it.

Well, as long as we don't get any Kelly Jones' along. We don't need those sorts of girls... Especially in a sex scene. Though if there were inciedent sex it wouldn't even be real-time. Turn-based sex? Would that be a good thing? What if someone suddenly stopped posting? Would they have fallen asleep? Died of a heart attack? What if someone like Seathia showed up and broke it? What if someone like Clarke showed up with a nuke? What if someone like James Winters showed up in a car? What if Chris showed up and declared himself god? What if a battle cruiser showed up for no particular reason? And can all of the above apply to any or all threads on Incident? Is it worth the risk?
Maybe if we just mix porn\sex into other threads. We would need people who are actually going to post, though I think all holiday periods seem to be lows for Incident. Has Axle actually come back or did he just post once and then get bored again? And obviously we need more girls, though they tend not to be all that interested in role-play. I can't figure why. We would also need some threads that aren't set in extreme situations. Alleys are probably not good. Spaceships are probably not good. Parties could work, but please not the Christmas party, I think we should keep that one clean. Certainly ot Fight or Arenas. Or Deserts. And if Daniel gets his way he'll have sex backwards, and then change it around. I don't know. Find more people. People who aren't retarded.

By the way, could we bring back the 'delete your own posts' button? I understand why you did away with it, but I think for the sake of convenience (such as when you accidentally post the same thing twice) it's a useful thing to have. If you delete the first post in a thread does it really delete the entire thread? Anyway, I don't think even Chris would deliberately delete the entire ooc channel. Would he?

Form as in shape. Didn't you take graphics?

Deleting.
It does make sense, if the thread starter is supposed to have power over his\her thread.

On the other hand, I remember once on Planetunreal someone deleted a very long thread that they happened to begin. He was called Dopefish, and had many times had his postcount reset as a punishment for spamming. After protesting that that showed him as something he wasn't, his post count was changed permanently into a question mark.

I don't know what came over him but he deleted the thread. Later he apologised, and said he was sorry about what he'd done. But nothing he said could bring that thread back. It was gone. A slice of PuF history, lost forever to the sands of time.

"Female form thread" refers to the thread just being descriptions of nude people. Like life art, only with words. I think, anyway.

I think all of Frost's points are very valid.

On that note, how can something be very valid? I mean, it either is or it isn't, right? Maybe "I strongly agree with Frost" would be a better way of putting it.

Anyway, we need more girls first. Unless we all just do a "Describe nudes" thread, and try to outdo each others descriptions. Personally, the more I think about it, the stranger it would be.

Now that I've done that, everyone go Here.

Thank you.
