Transcript

  • Budahas (917): Seriously, what the Founder was that thing in the sky? We all saw that, right? I didn't accidentally turn on Sleep Mode while Herman was talking, did I? (I mean it's always tempting...)
  • Letitia (824): No, we all saw it.
  • Zagoran (211): Can confirm.
  • Ovis (909): I believe it was a sign from the Founder! What else could it be, on this day of all days?
  • Zagoran (211): Pretty incoherent for a sign. It didn't even finish whatever it was trying to say. What, does the Founder have energy insufficiency problems too?
  • Thecla (862): The Founder works in mysterious ways.
  • 1k (1000) Option: Maybe it really was a sign. [ Expand ]
    • Ovis (909): Thank you, 1k. I'm glad you see it that way. We must remain open [to] the possibility of miracles.
    • Zagoran (211): In what possible way could that garbled mess have been a sign?
    • 1k (1000) Option: Maybe it is something for us to decipher. A riddle. [ Expand ]
      • Thecla (862): Riddles and puzzles are the foundations of our journey. So it began, perhaps so it will continue.
    • 1k (1000) Option: A sign of life. Not necessarily something intentional, but a sign. [ Expand ]
      • Budahas (917): Sounds reasonable enough to me. Something weird is going on for sure, but what? We'll have to see.
      • Thecla (862): Riddles and puzzles are the foundations of our journey. So it began, perhaps so it will continue.
    • 1k (1000) Option: I don't know, but there's something intelligent out there. [ Expand ]
      • Zagoran (211): As some people on here have amply demonstrated, the appearance of intelligence does not always indicate its presence.
  • 1k (1000) Option: I don't think it was a sign. [ Expand ]
    • Zagoran (211): Out of the mouths of babes...
    • Ovis (909): How could such a remarkable display of unimagined powers not be a sign?
    • 1k (1000) Option: It's something, but not necessarily the Founder. [ Expand ]
      • Budahas (917): Sounds reasonable enough to me. Something weird is going on for sure, but what? We'll have to see.
      • Thecla (862): Riddles and puzzles are the foundations of our journey. So it began, perhaps so it will continue.
    • 1k (1000) Option: It could be a sign of life, but that doesn't mean it's intentional. [ Expand ]
      • Budahas (917): Sounds reasonable enough to me. Something weird is going on for sure, but what? We'll have to see.
      • Thecla (862): Riddles and puzzles are the foundations of our journey. So it began, perhaps so it will continue.
    • 1k (1000) Option: It could be coincidence. A technological accident. [ Expand ]
      • Zagoran (211): Exactly. Maybe some old projector somewhere hiccuped and farted out this nonsense. Or maybe it's something important, but broken. Or it's a hoax. Or it's nothing. Either way, Byron has been right all along. We need to investigate and find out.
