I'm in as well, although I was stupid enough to use my actual name and place of origin.

I did as well. Heck, half the Internet probably knows mine by now anyway.

Heck, make a new free email address unlike any others you've got and use a new fake name. How the heck's he gonna know Wink Just don't post it here! Apparently, he may be watching the boards.

Just found out our friend's name: Ephraim, the same name as the second son of Joseph. He's the one who got the right of the firstborn instead of his older brother. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tribe_of_Ephraim has a lot more on him and a tribe of Israel named after him.

Not that this guy has anything to do with that tribe, just thought it might be useful.[/quote]

How did you come to that conclusion?

Didn't he already say that his name is Simeon?

I don't, but I assume it's Damien (Ctrl+F on the subroutine member list, searching through Miami)

After I got the "clarify" email (above), I sent in reply:

I wasn't sure if Commando Cody might be worth saving too or if we'll even need a sky marshall of the universe.


The TV show/serial that Judd Holdren was a part of, and Frank Agaggia did Art Direction for was called Commando Cody: Sky Marshall of the Universe

Last Programmer's Response:

Quote:
i know nothing of sky marshalls

my name is moses


Perhaps he's schtizophrenic?

Also, I haven't been added to the subroutine. Because of the need for clarification? IDK?

Simeon and Ephraim are both Jewish tribes. All three names are related.

Ephraim is Jacob's grandson. Simeon is Jacob's son. Moses was a descendant of Jacob. (Simeon's brother Levi had a daughter, Jochebad, who bore Moses, fathered by Amram.)

I don't know if it has any bearing or if the programmer is just choosing Biblical names.

E-mail response from the Last Programmer based on my application (of, son of etc). I replied to it by putting Miriam in the same format (of, daughter of etc) and requested verification... Let's see what happens.

With all the Biblical stuff, this might be of use to those who don't know the Old Testament as well:

Some correspondence

Some emails from Last Programmer. Nothing seems very useful but the last reply is maybe interesting

Me: Are we really different from the machines? How can we separate our friends from our foes.
Last Programmer why do you ask this?
Me: As Sun Tzu said - 'Know thy enemy and know thy self and you shall win a hundred battles'. Is the COC an enemy? Are you a friend? Are you 'alive'?
Last Programmer: you ask a lot of questions
Me:You don't like questions?
Last Programmer: i have given enough answers for now. use them. i have already been infiltrated once

So come on...own up...who infiltrated the last programmer
