((I gotta believe it's kinda weird for Rarebit to do those set up screens where he's the only one doing everything))

Hmm...interesting. It almost seems like someone messed with the Morpheus sim's programming; first he stops obeying the General, and now he seems even more off.

And, please, no offense, Rare, but if you're going to ignore NightTrace for questioning Pace's authority, the least you could do is ignore all of the spammers at events like these. I'm not going to lie - they made the event look cheap.))



I agree completely! 
I do to. Especially about the part where I get ignored for following what my character would do.

He totally has a point.

The Elite Commandos in the construct are linked to individual Sentinels in the Real.  The Merovingian had warned the General to stay in designated areas and otherwise obey orders, or there would be consequences.  It seems to me that the Effectuator reached into the chest of an Elite Commando and stopped his heart, thus "killing" the Sentinel in the Real.  An example to the General to stay loyal, I'm sure.  The thumbs' up is merely the subordinate reporting a mission accomplished back to his superior.  The Merovingian's interest in power sources points to his plans to expand his influences in the Real.

Our engineers are working on ways for Holographics to distinguish between Machine Sentinels and Merv Sentinels, but for now we are assuming that the ones that run from a firefight are the Merv's and the ones that keep coming are the Machines'.  In a way the General did us all a favor by tearing the Machines' Sentinel army down to the manageable size it is now.  The small pockets of Sentinels on patrol haven't kept us from establishing secure broadcast positions.  The Rocket Propelled Grenade EMPs are working very well... the squiddies scatter when we fire them and, although the EMP blast range is small due to the limited power supply on board the RPG-EMP, the speed at which the shock wave advances usually catches a few and downs them.  The advantage of a ranged EMP blast is that our own systems are not affected.  I'm glad we took advantage of the peace time to prepare for war, otherwise we would have been stranded every time we had to resort to blowing an EMP.  Thanks to the research necessary for powering the EMP defenses of New Zion, the RPG EMPs are a success.

(((As for the rest, please use Xfire or the other IMs to call in troops who aren't already jacked in when we are needed to sway the outcome with numbers. 
Also, as I've plead before, during Live Events: stay in character, role-play and say relevant and/or dramatic things, or .... be quiet. 
Ruining events for everyone else is the height of juvenile behavior; quit it.)))

"Combined with a form of fusion, the machines had found all the power they would ever need..."

This is a very old discussion.  Do the machines (mechanicals, not redpills) even need human-generated power at all or are they just being efficient by not letting it go to waste?

"You won't let it happen.  You can't.  You need humans to survive."
"There are levels of survival we are willing to accept."

Why then keep nearly 8 billion in the pods?  What's the real reason the machines need humans and seemingly need to control us?

Ponder...

I think the best explanation that I have heard as to why they need man kind hooked up to the pods has to do more with fusion than the power they generate. Fusion is a very complex process and it would make sense that the combined computing power of the humans hooked up would be able to control the process better. Censerving the other energy they output would just be efficient.

I'm going to agree with ignoring the people who spammed, thankfully I wasn't one of them. I said like 4 things >.>

I think I put about five people on /ignore on both characters, which is probably some kind of record.

Yes, the spam was bad and the perpetrators got ignored, lets not waste this thread on them.
The Merovingian's questions cause some concern regarding location of the fields generators and exactly what form of energy. Obviously the imposter was unable or unwilling to release the information. Possible outcomes from knowledge of these facts would have to be looked into.

((PS1ON, where did you get that info from? A past LE or latest Zion Crit?))

((I hadn't had anyone on ignore until this event.  How pitiful.  I think I'm gonna be a little more easy with the ignore function now.))

Funny, that's about how many I wrote down to /ccr.

Not so much the spam annoyed the heck out of me, but the Machinist who kept coming in and turning off the lights in the room.  It's one thing to verbally disrupt a live event, but to VISUALLY disrupt a live event is beyond belief.  My jaw dropped.  If I were Rarebit I'd 86 that mofo so fast it would have made his head spin.  I mean, if it were up to me, you do that, you eff with my live events, and you are pretty much banned from the game.  You're outta here.

 God these are times when I wish this was a hostile server.  That *CENSORED* would have been on so many KOS lists his mind would reel.

 ((On edit:  I suppose it isn't too late to send in a /ccr.))

((Wait, I'm confused... the Merovingian finds Morpheus's story about the Pods odd? I sense a pattern. First a big twist about reinsertion (that it isn't done), now one about extraction.))
