Uh, what does Compcent run? And what is a supercomputer going to do with a hand-to-hand combat specialist? Or a boozehound?

umm train people, run simulations

You really can both sig it.
But... That would break the laws of sigging! We can't have everyone running around with the same quotes. IT MAKES THEM UNFUNNY FASTER!

I only chose a Technician character because of some game character I chose to base it on because I ran out of ideas.
An example of something my guy would say or the game character said.
"What did you break this time?"
"Is it me, or are everyone's heads growing out of their asses? Nope, it's just me."
"What you got for me sonny?"
"Goodbye laddie."

My take is that CompCent has a massive body of knowledge, but limited and literal programming. It does not know what would be relevant to this unknown event, so creates sub-processes with very random and varied knowledge.

Who knows, fermentation may be useful.

Sure, keeping in mind that while you can fuck with other processes, your entirety resides within a database that CompCent has complete control over.

Run? Like what OS? You don't know. You could ask. It probably won't tell you.
No, I mean what is it installed in? A spaceship? A city? A giant robot, in which case a hand-to-hand specialist would actually be useful?

That is four submissions so far. One more and we begin.

Glacies, do you have one to submit? You reserved a spot earlier. If not, take your time. You will go on the waiting list when you are ready and can be voted in or will come in when needed.

You don't know yet. You are the first generation, and start with basically no information. You will ask questions of CompCent and try to figure out what is going on, why you have been created, and what you should do.

I picture my character as a bugged program, just as capable as the others but lacking the urge to do anything except drink and muck around unless he absolutely has to do it.

Fine with me, and I will likely work stuff like this into the story.

I tend to do that. Detail = good, there are no bad ideas.

Designation: Sonetto
Specialty: Poetry
Description: Appearing as a marble colored man with a permanent scowling expression. Sonetto's role is that of an artistic thought process designed to look at all questions from a different viewpoint then usual. Prone to long periods of thoughtfulness, Sonetto regurgitates a limited number of haiku already within it's database, as well as improvising it's own (rather poor) poems.

Onto the waiting list you go. You will come in when CompCent decides to create you, or when others vote you in, or when someone is wiped.

Process Designation: Lu-0(Logic Unit zero)
Process Specialty: Physics
Process Description: Appears as simply a clear floating crystal, only possessing any shape at all so that the others have something to speak to. Lu has no respect for authority, and is quick to dismiss any plan he thinks useless. Still, he is not above random guesswork if logical paths of inquiry have proven useless, and while he works slowly he will not stop until the problem has been found, fully understood, and solved.
