Little secret: The CPU schematics shown in the PDF file are from the Sega Genesis. The company is out-dated in more ways than one. Wink

Ahh! So Eric has had his 'special needs' engineers working on an outdated chip design and forging the benchmark tests to make it look astonishingly good. But as the chip is about to go on the market, he knows he can no longer keep up the lie. So he 'claims' that the chip was stolen, and leaves evidence implicating everyone else in the company. They'll get arrested for industrial espionage, Eric's 'revolutionary chip design' will never get returned, and he'll take the big insurance settlement and move to the south of France (with a janitor he's recently fallen in love with).

It all makes sense now Very Happy

If you don't think that I can't keep this up indefinitely (or at least until I get bored), you obviously have never read one of my guides. I recommend the Monster Hunter Club guide. I was in rare form there.

Winner! Razz

For mega-bonus points: How many employees did Elizabeth sleep with during her three-year "secretarial" efforts at Jasper-Tech?

Seventeen - but that's because she counts the UPS men. It's the brown shorts.

42.

It's the answer to life, the universe, and everything.

Including this.

FYI, Puzzle Experiment #3 has been pushed back to next Sunday. I have finals on Tuesday and Wednesday, and have been far too busy studying for those. Again, thanks to everyone who participated in #2. I've learned a lot so far! Very Happy

Finals are NOT an excuse. Jail or hospital. That's the only ones I'll accept. Or hungover. Good job on this Omega. You've also shown a lot of creativity and role playing ability in the Pastry Wars thread. I'll think you'll be good at this after you take a few more knocks... Great way to learn.

That's kind of contradictory... I thought it was implied that when finals come around...

Yes, by "studying" I really mean, "procrastinating until the night before to cram." I don't have the time to do anything other than nothing. Wink

This was definitely a big improvement over the first one, and fun to boot. I'm ready for more.

And screw finals - just thinking about them is going to dredge up old nightmares tonight, like suddenly remembering I have a final for a class I've never attended or forgot to drop. I can do without those.

I've always been meaning to ask you this Toasty: do you dream in Morse code?

Morse is probably too simple for him >_>

I graduated from college two years ago and I still wake up from nightmares where I forgot to study for a final or didn't write a paper. I always feel really panicky for a couple of minutes upon waking until I realize I'm done with school. Then I smile, snuggle back with my stuffed Super Mario, and go back to sleep.

In the really good dreams, the Morse decodes to a Vigenere cipher. Very Happy
