Yeah, we don't know his real name and weasel works as well for OOC, but what would I call him IC?  I'm assuming 'bots wouldn't use a derogatory nickname, but that's up the universe.
Speaking of which, I do have a couple borg related questions.

Spoiler: Aforementioned Borg Questions (click to show/hide)

How developed are robots in general?  We talking 50's ideas like fallout protectrons, or more I, Robot borgs?
How advanced is their AI?  Could they pass a Turing test?
What about laws?  Are they Asimov laws?  Is humanity just really trusting?
Are they commonplace?  Is it possible we'll find some civ 'bots or are they really just military grade or for the 1%?

Corai-Andrew Williams: Stay at the office building and converse with anyone else who stays behind.

Look out the window and attempt to see how many zeds are in the immediate area.

Zed 10.
Robots have got to be slightly more advanced, and they managed to figure out the humanoid walking problem. A few robots are self aware, or seem self aware, but robots aren't exactly good at communicating in human speech and often fail to understand idioms and metaphors, like I'm feeling down. There is a book im using called how to build a robot army. I usully follow that. Robots are extremely good at doing decisions and having stuff humans could never get., but long-term planning, subtleties, and whether someone is a zombie or a human is tough. They are about as common as they are today, except with more robots being commercial products (ex. more Roomba like robots) , and a lot more use of robots in the military besides drones. A few rich people own butler robots and stuff like that but they are rich.

If you have more questions, I started an OOC thread here: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=120241.0

Also, I'm sick, so my computer use will likely be very sporadic today.

Stay with the group, carefully scanning for threats, using his pistol if need be. Chat with Weasal a bit, with the aim of learning more about him, or better yet, getting him to take a belt or two of ammunition. Heavy stuff, bullets.

Oh, nice catch. Thanks

I'll need posts from tsukikoneri and borno by about 1 PM tomorrow.

See if there's anything valuable in the building that we may have missed.

That'll work too, I suppose. I was thinking of the faction that's neither Utopian or Military, the name escaped me

[mesor]

The sheet you filled out was for survivor.

[UristMcWanderer]

Ah, OK. Thanks, I was confused

[mesor]

Persus if he wants military and you don't mind having 1 more soldier I don't mind if he joins.

1 more person won't make a huge difference.
