This is the OOC thread for my upcoming forum game CompCent. I am bored, so want to run one.
IC ThreadYou are a group of creative sub-processes created to advice CompCent, an AI with a vastly superior intellect but who is bound by very tightly programmed strictures, blocks, and priorities. It has encountered an Unknown Event, something outside of its ability to process or respond to, and has created you in order to evaluate the event and advise possible courses of action and threat analysis.
You will post your process profile and the first five to respond will get in, the rest will go on a waiting list.
This is a roleplaying challenge, not a roll to dodge or anything like that. You are here to interact and have fun. That said, I would like some level of seriousness. Keep in mind you are dealing with an entity who is very literal-minded and has no sense of humor. Erratic behavior, failure, or worse will qualify you for immediate deletion and you will be moved to the back of the waiting list while a new player is brought in. New players can also be voted in, if the existing processes think one of them will be useful in resolving the current problem.
When created, you appear in a very basic virtual space within CompCent's memory core. You have 'physical' bodies in this space and can create and interact with tools here, but they have no bearing on the real world. As advisors, you are barred from interacting directly with any physical machinery and start with absolutely no knowledge of where you are, what is happening, or why beyond what CompCent will tell you upon your creation.
