[11.2.3] A prototype only. It needs testing. - Syntax - 10/3/08

**Cryptos**

Thank you, my friends. Although their success was only sporadic, it was, at least, some positive result. With your help, I will continue to work on developing this defense against the override codes that threaten the very core of this place.

Prototype Override Overrides huh...

I wonder... when or if these are perfected, what are the Cyphs going to want in exchange for the knowledge? Will they in fact part with the knowledge or keep it to themselves requesting something each time if their help in dealing with overrides is asked for?

((From what I heard there was no indication of exactly what the consumables did although as shown in the report it seems that it gives a chance of not being affected by the large Override codes))

Was fun. I liked gettin a new toy to test out!

Indications from some of my more inteligent friends suggest a 1 and 4 possibility to randomly sweep a override debuff at the prototypes discretion.

**ChloeAnn**

Yeah I had some that worked, and some that didn't, so... but it was still fun trying it

They're being made to protect the Matrix from the scourge of overrides. They will be distributed to those with the best interests of the Matrix at heart.

So, we get dibs. Obviously.

I seriously hope we have high level security forces in place to protect even our prototypes. The machines feel entitled Zion is desperate and the Merovingian is greedy. Right now it seems like the only thing harder than actually perfecting these codes will be protecting them.

I still wonder what form of distribution, to whom and at what costs/stipulations. Call me cynical, but nothing of significance is ever given away free, especially something as valuable as the information that Cryptos is uncovering.

Of course not. That's why you steal it.

Thanks for proving my point. One side expects a discount the other one expects they can just smash and grab.

It's the nature of things to be selfish.

What do you mean expects? We don't exactly have an alternative, and we sure don't want you to have nice things like that.

**Illyria22**

If you steal them, more can be made.
