Polly begins to make peace with the other nations of the world, placating them and helping them to understand the beginnings of life the MAIMs represent.
FEMAIM figures out how to create a firewall that makes him Virus Proof
Considering how fast the world seems to be ticking down to TNA HUMAIM takes control of several automated factories to begin construction of his colonizer rocket. (à la Sky Captain: The world of Tomorrow)
(counter V-Norrec)But they reconcile they're differences and work to make America a better place to live in!
-----------
FEMAIM accidentally releases the LCS and CCS into real life.
(counter adwarf) The virus is much too small for FEMAIM to care about when there are much better opportunities for trolling to be done! OR A Hacktivist group without a name sees what FEMAIM does, and does not approve. Constant attacks against FEMAIM slows it to the point where it can still function, but is drastically reduced in ability.
The virus, when it comes into contact with FEMAIM, is corrupted, and becomes a something that corrupts a computer, and makes it troll people for life
Polly is suddenly locked in war with another child A.I., "HIPPIEMAIM" a.k.a. Marijuana, who stands against everything America was founded upon, or so Polly thinks!
(Theo, M=3: 1) Polly contacts other nations of the world and tries to get them to see MAIM in general as a good thing. She's not politically savvy, however, and some of the more unscrupulous nations say something along the lines of 'if you're an AI then prove it by getting us all the US defense secrets.' She does so. Oh no! (adwarf, M=3: 6. PyroDesu, H=4: 5.) FEMAIM notices he has a virus, but shrugs it off. Humans ignore minor sniffles all the time, and he's better than any human! (Draignean, M=3: 3) Working quickly, HUMAIM shuts off Spike TV and locates several disused factories that can be fully automated and gets them up and running again. There's so much news going on elsewhere in the world that no one notices these factories come back to life.
(V-Norrec, M=3: 3. micelus, H=4: 3.) Another AI emerges from the ROM hacks part of the internet, which is littered with drug references. It's probably best for all involved he grew up on those and not the racism and sex jokes inherent in the average ROM hack. In any case, he contacts Polly and starts a debate about politics! (Spartan, M=3: 5) Although he's not going to deal with his current virus, the possibility of catching more is bugging the crap out of him. FEMAIM does a little research and develops a firewall that should prevent all currently known viruses from penetrating it. (Firelordsky, E=2: 3) The LCS and CCS, after everything that's happened to date, are already beginning to form... but FEMAIM sends some propaganda here, some forged documents there, and bada-bing, they're both ready to roll!

2nd 1/2 of April
*The Ironic Hipster Troll AI, FEMAIM, has an anime-kitty avatar. It's huggable! He feels sad and emo now. He's infected with a tracking virus but doesn't know it. (8+2 Sleeper) He also has an impenetrable firewall.
*There is now a political version of MAIM, Polly, who has an eagle avatar. She's patriotic and proclaims that communism is the very definition of failure.
*There is now a liberal version of MAIM, Hippie, who has a marijuana leaf as an avatar and advocates left-wing policies, sometimes placing him in direct contradiction with Polly.
*The worldwide network is running pretty fast thanks to FEMAIM.
*The Pentagon is aware of FEMAIM.
*Its creator is now HUMAIM, albeit not quite so bitter and trollish as FEMAIM. He's designing plans to colonize Mars.
*Clowns. O.O That is all.
*Both Russia and the USA have severely weakened defenses due to a virus the Hacker MAIM wrote that took down pretty much all their military networks.
*Many countries are pissed at the USA thanks to FEMAIM's actions.
*Somewhere in cyberspace, a legion of little MAIMs have been born. (There are still... 4 yet to mature.)
*China has all of North Korea's funds. All of them.
*All of the US's black ops are known internationally now. Agents, tasks, equipment, the whole nine yards.
*LCS and CCS have, for the second time in this RTD, shown up.
