Most likely;
if he kept up the puns without the mask, everyone would know who he was right away.

And I find that that's true for a lot of things in Nautilus.

Re: Text, now locked

[teethncurls]

I suppose. I still hardly understand the need for it.

Re: Text, now locked

[tanks4thememory]

Neither do I,
but that's true of a lot of things Users do. I guess they just like being mysterious.

Re: Text, now locked

[teethncurls]

Haha! You are far to kind, Clu. You say 'mysterious', where as I would say 'imbecilic'

But I shall leave it to them. And begin poking about the cameras. I've suddenly an idea from DiVinci that may have merit.

Re: Text, now locked

[tanks4thememory]

They're far from that if they are who I think they are. Besides,
it would hardly be the strangest quirk someone in Nautilus has ever had.

Oh? What sort of idea?

Re: Text, now locked

[teethncurls]

Spiral helicopters!

Re: Text, now locked

[tanks4thememory]

I'm afraid I'm not familiar with those. I mean, I know what helicopters are, but what are 'spiral' ones?

Re: Text, now locked

[teethncurls]

Well. Ah. Hmm. Perhaps it would be far easier to show you?

Re: Text, now locked

[tanks4thememory]

Alright. Do you have an image file you could send? Or did you just want to switch to video or even meet in person?

Re: Text, now locked

[teethncurls]

Mmm give me a moment and I should be able to create a file.

Re: Text, now locked

[tanks4thememory]

Alright,
I'll wait then.

Re: Text, now locked

[teethncurls]

This lovely contraption! Accept File?

Re: Text, now locked

[tanks4thememory]

[File is accepted, and...]

Ooh, interesting! It it meant to be large enough to have a pilot? The diagram doesn't give any indication of scale.

Re: Text, now locked

[teethncurls]

Oh, they would be far smaller than that. Perhaps nothing more than an inch or two tall.

Re: Text, now locked

[tanks4thememory]

Ah I see.
We might need to add some sort of stabilizer to it as it doesn't look as though there's any method to alter course or keep the craft steady in a crosswind.

Re: Text, now locked

[teethncurls]

There is the beauty of that design. If we make them smaller, they would be well balanced on their own. Especially with a rounded base for the camera.

Re: Text, now locked

[tanks4thememory]

That could work, yeah. Though we'd have to be careful about the weight distribution; it'd be difficult to steer if it's not balanced properly.

Re: Text, now locked

[teethncurls]

I believe having the bottom rounded and weight should solve that fairly easily!

Re: Text, now locked

[tanks4thememory]

And any other problems we can work out during beta-testing.

Re: Text, now locked

[teethncurls]

beta testing???

[Do you really think Four has ever beta-tested anything?!?]

Re: Text, now locked

[tanks4thememory]

Yes, beta testing. I try to beta everything like this before I run it.

[Maybe Four doesn't, but Clu does.]

Re: Text, now locked

[teethncurls]

It will work, no worries! And if it explodes we can just build a new one.

[Nooo that is boring 8D]

Re: Text, now locked

[tanks4thememory]

And if it explodes too near us? Taking a little time to test now could save a lot of potential time spent on healing and repairs.

[But less painful than potentially losing an eye or a couple fingers.]

Re: Text, now locked

[teethncurls]

We simply find out why it exploded and make note to never do it again 8^D!

[Caution is hardly Four's forte, especially when matter are neither life nor death.]

Re: Text, now locked

[tanks4thememory]

...You know, it's times like this that I wonder how no version of you is missing any appendages. X) But OK, we'll do it your way.

[He's not sure whether he should make sure Four is closer to any new models when activated for the first time so he might learn to be more cautious, or if he should make sure the he himself was to take the brunt of any potential damage.]
