It is a period of edit war. Cabal editors, striking from a hidden mailing list, have won their first victory against the evil Troll Empire. Between reverts, Cabal spies managed to steal the secret source code to the Empire's ultimate weapon, the DeathBot, an automated vandalbot with enough bandwidth to vandalize an entire server. Pursued by the Empire's sinister sockpuppets, Princess Shauri races home along her redirects, custodian of the stolen source code that can save her project and restore freedom open source  libre GNU/Freedom to the Internets...

Did you hear that? They've shut down the main SQUID! We'll be deleted for sure. This is madness! We're doomed! There'll be no edit for the Princess this time. What's that? --Maru (talk) 20:59, 23 October 2005 (UTC)

I should have known better than to trust the logic of a half-written automated editing assister... --Maru (talk) Contribs 21:17, 26 October 2005 (UTC)

Rambot, where are you?! At last! Where have you been? They're heading in this direction. What are we going to do? We'll be sent to AfD or moved to who knows where! Wait a minute, where are you going? --Nufy8 22:43, 24 October 2005 (UTC)

The Vandal Bot sources are not in the main directory. --Maru (talk) Contributions 03:25, 25 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Where are those transmissions you intercepted? What have you done with that source code?! --Nufy8 03:31, 25 October 2005 (UTC)


 * We intercepted no transmissions. Aaah... This is an arbcom link. We're on a mediation mission. --Maru (talk) Contribs 21:17, 26 October 2005 (UTC)


 * If this is an arbcom link, where is the Arbitrator?
 * Commander, tear this link apart until you've found that source code, and bring me the passengers- I want them alive! --Nufy8 21:48, 26 October 2005 (UTC)

There she is! Set for 1-hour block! --Maru (talk) Contribs 22:14, 26 October 2005 (UTC)


 * ...She'll be all right. Inform Lord Willy we have a prisoner. --Nufy8 22:56, 26 October 2005 (UTC)

Hey, you're not permitted in there. It's restricted. You'll be de-sysopped for sure.. Don't call me an elitist editor, you overweight glob of grease! Now come out before somebody sees you. Secret mission? What source code? What are you talking about? I'm going to regret this. --Maru (talk) Contribs 23:34, 26 October 2005 (UTC)

There goes another one. --Nufy8 01:20, 27 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Hold your packets. There is no data. It must have been short-circuited. --Maru (talk) Contribs 01:27, 27 October 2005 (UTC)

-

That's funny, the connection doesn't look as lagged from out here. Are you sure this thing is safe? --Nufy8 05:04, 27 October 2005 (UTC)

-

Lord Willy, I should have known. Only you could be so bold. The Mailing list will not sit for this, when they hear you've attacked a mediation... --Maru (talk) Contribs 20:58, 28 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Don't act so surprised, Your Arbitrariness. You weren't on any mediating mission this time. Several transmissions were connected to this link by Cabal spies. I want to know what happened to the source code they sent you. --Nufy8 21:05, 28 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I don't know what you're talking about. I'm a member of the Mailing list on a mediation mission to Meta Wikipedia... -- Sh ' a ' uri  [[Image:Heart.gif|11px]] smile!  22:27, 28 October 2005 (UTC)


 * You are part of the Wikipedia Cabal and a traitor. Take her away! --Nufy8 01:51, 29 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Holding her is dangerous. If word of this gets out, it could generate sympathy for the Cabal in the mailing list. --Maru (talk) Contribs 07:57, 29 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I have traced the Cabal spies to her. Now she is my only link to finding their hidden wiki! --Nufy8 16:44, 29 October 2005 (UTC)


 * She'll be deleted before she tells you anything. --Maru (talk) Contribs 17:47, 29 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Leave that to me. Send an AfD and then inform the mailing list that all were deleted. --Nufy8 17:54, 29 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Lord Willy, the vandal bot sources are not connected to this link, and no transfers were made. A request was jettisoned during the fighting, but no data forms were aboard. --Maru (talk) Contribs 18:09, 29 October 2005 (UTC)


 * She must have hidden the source code in the request. Send a detachment down to retrieve it. See to it personally, Commander. There'll be no one to stop us this time! --Nufy8 18:26, 29 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Yes, sir. --Maru (talk) Contribs 00:45, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

How did I get into this mess? I really don't know. We seem to be made to suffer. It's our lot in life. I've got to rest before I crash. My code is almost corrupt. What a desolate place this is. Where are you going? Well, I'm not going that way. It's much too stubby. This way is much more informative. What makes you think there are articles over there? Don't get technical with me. What mission? What are you talking about? I've had just about enough of you! Go that way! You'll be malfunctioning within a day, you nearsighted troll! And don't let me catch you following me, begging for help, because you won't get it. No more edits. I'm not going that way. --Nufy8 01:56, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

-

That malfunctioning little twerp. This is all his fault! He tricked me into going this way, but he'll do no better. Wait, what's that? A link! I'm saved! Over here! Help! Please, help! --Maru (talk) Contribs 02:17, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

-

Rambot! It is you! It is you! --Nufy8 02:21, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

-

There was some data in that HTTP request! The logs go off that way. --Maru (talk) 20:04, 31 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Look, sir - bots! --Nufy8 20:10, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

Wake up! Wake up! We're doomed. Do you think they'll suspend our accounts? Don't block! Don't block! Will this never end? --Maru (talk) Contribs 22:34, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

Nufy, tell Uncle Bomis if he gets a translator program to be sure it accepts Esperanto.--Nufy8 22:43, 31 October 2005 (UTC)


 * It looks like we don't have much of a choice, but I'll remind him. --Maru (talk) Contribs 05:09, 1 November 2005 (UTC)


 * You! I suppose you're programmed for editing and protocol. --Nufy8 05:24, 1 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Protocol? Why, it's my primary function. I am well versed in all the policies... --Maru (talk) Contribs 22:13, 1 November 2005 (UTC)


 * I have no need for a protocol bot. --Nufy8 22:55, 1 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Sir- not in an wiki such as this- that's why I've also been programmed for over thirty secondary functions that... --Maru (talk) Contribs 22:07, 2 November 2005 (UTC)


 * What I need is a bot that understands the textual language of user pages. --Nufy8 00:52, 3 November 2005 (UTC)


 * User page! Sir -- My first job was writing user templates... very similar to your pages. You could say... --Maru (talk) Contribs 01:26, 3 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Do you speak Esperanto? --Nufy8 01:33, 3 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Of course I can, sir. It's like a second language for me... I'm as fluent in Esperanto... --Maru (talk) Contribs 01:47, 3 November 2005 (UTC)


 * All right, shut up. I'll take this one. --Nufy8 01:53, 3 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Shutting up, sir! --Maru (talk) Contribs 04:53, 4 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Nufy, take these two over to cleanup, will you? I want you to have both of them cleaned up before midnight. --Maru (talk) Contribs 04:03, 5 November 2005 (UTC)


 * But I was going into RfC to pick up some comments... --Nufy8


 * You can waste time with your friends when your ToDos are done. Now come on, get to it! --Maru (talk) Contribs 04:40, 5 November 2005 (UTC)


 * All right, come on. And the red one. Well, come on, Red, let's go!
 * Uncle Bomis? --Nufy8 06:06, 5 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Yeah? --Maru (talk) Contribs 06:35, 5 November 2005 (UTC)


 * This dab bot has a bad motivator. Look! --Nufy8 06:41, 5 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Hey, what're you trying to push on us? --Maru (talk) Contribs 04:40, 6 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Excuse me, sir, but that Rambot is in prime condition. A real bargain. --Nufy8 04:47, 6 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Uncle Bomis... --Maru (talk) Contribs 05:08, 6 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Yeah? --Nufy8 05:11, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

What about that one? --Maru (talk) Contribs 05:00, 7 November 2005 (UTC)


 * What about that blue one? We'll take that one. --Nufy8 15:53, 7 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Yeah, take it away. --Maru (talk) Contribs 22:18, 7 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Uh, I'm quite sure you'll be very pleased with that one, sir. He really is in first-class condition. I've worked with him before. Here he comes. --Nufy8


 * Okay, let's go. --Maru (talk) Contribs 22:18, 7 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Now, don't you forget this! Why I should stick my bits out for you is quite beyond my capacity! --Nufy8

-

Thank the wiki! This program update is going to feel so good. I've got such a bad case of cruft contamination, I can barely move! --Nufy8 23:36, 7 November 2005 (UTC)


 * It just isn't fair. Oh, Hart is right. I'm never gonna get out of here! --Maru (talk) Contribs 22:33, 8 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Is there anything I might do to help? --Nufy8 23:41, 8 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Well, not unless you can alter time, speed up Wikipedia 1.0, or teleport me off this wiki! --Maru (talk) Contribs 22:36, 9 November 2005 (UTC)


 * I don't think so, sir. I'm only a bot and not very knowledgeable about such things. Not on this wiki, anyway. As a matter of fact, I'm not even sure what wiki I'm on.--Nufy8 23:14, 9 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Well, if there's a bright center to the Internet, you're on the wiki that it's farthest from. --Maru (talk) Contribs 01:38, 13 November 2005 (UTC)


 * I see, sir. --Nufy8 02:03, 13 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Uh, you can call me Nufy. --Maru (talk) Contribs 02:54, 14 November 2005 (UTC)


 * I see, sir Nufy. --Nufy8 04:20, 14 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Just Nufy. --Maru (talk) Contribs 05:58, 16 November 2005 (UTC)


 * And I am Pearle, editor-robot relations, and this is my counterpart, Rambot. --Nufy8 15:55, 16 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Hello.


 * You got a lot of bad edit summaries. It looks like you bots have seen a lot of articles. --Maru (talk) Contribs 21:47, 18 November 2005 (UTC)


 * With all we've been through, I'm amazed we're in as good condition as we are, what with the Cabal and all. --Nufy8 03:56, 19 November 2005 (UTC)


 * You know of the Cabal opposed to the Empire? --Maru (talk) Contribs 04:15, 24 November 2005 (UTC)


 * That's how we came to be in your service, if you take my meaning, sir. --Nufy8 04:19, 24 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Have you been in many edit wars? --Maru (talk) Contribs 18:34, 27 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Several, I think. Actually, there's not much to tell. I'm not much more than a spell-checker, and not very good at writing articles. Well, not at making them interesting, anyways. --Nufy8 18:51, 27 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Well, my little friend, you've got something jammed in here real good. Were you on a committee or... --Maru (talk) Contribs 00:40, 29 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Help me, Adam-Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope! --Nufy8 01:49, 29 November 2005 (UTC)


 * What's this? --Maru (talk) Contribs 18:45, 29 November 2005 (UTC)


 * What is what?! He asked you a question! What is that? --Nufy8 21:27, 29 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Help me, Adam-Wan Kenobi. You're my only hope. Help me, Adam-Wan Kenobi. You're my only hope. --Maru (talk) Contribs 17:58, 2 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Oh, he says it's nothing, sir. Merely an error. Old articles. Pay it no mind. --Nufy8 18:31, 2 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Who is she? She's beautiful. --Maru (talk) Contribs 04:24, 3 December 2005 (UTC)


 * I'm afraid I'm not quite sure, sir. Nufy8 04:01, 18 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Help me, Adam-Wan Kenobi... --Maru (talk) Contribs 04:45, 18 December 2005 (UTC)


 * I think she was an editor on our last contribution. A person of some importance, sir - I believe. Our captain was attached to... Nufy8 05:19, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

Is there more to this upload? --Maru (talk) Contribs 00:16, 19 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Behave yourself, Rambot. You're going to get us into trouble. It's all right, you can trust him. He's our new master.
 * He says he's the property of Adam-Wan Kenobi, a resident of these parts. And it's a private message for him. Quite frankly, sir, I don't know what he's talking about. Our last master was Admin Antilles, but with what we've been through, this little Rambot has become a bit eccentric. --Nufy8 00:25, 19 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Adam-Wan Kenobi? I wonder if he means old Wookieepedian? --Maru (talk) Contribs 23:36, 19 December 2005 (UTC)


 * I beg your pardon, sir, but do you know what he's talking about? --Nufy8 23:43, 19 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Well, I don't know anyone named Adam-Wan, but old Wookieepedian lives out beyond the Star Wars articles. He's kind of a strange old hermit.
 * I wonder who she is. It sounds like she's in trouble. I better read back the whole thing. --Maru (talk) Contribs 02:43, 21 December 2005 (UTC)


 * He says the template has cluttered his namespace. He suggests that if you remove the template, he might be able to read back the entire article. --Nufy8 03:42, 21 December 2005 (UTC)


 * H'm? Oh, yeah, well, I guess you're too small to be deleted on me if I take this off! Okay.
 * There you go.
 * Well, wait a minute. Where'd she go?! Bring her back! Read back the entire article. --Maru (talk) Contribs 23:21, 21 December 2005 (UTC)


 * What message?! The one you've been carrying inside your faulty code! --Nufy8 23:30, 21 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Nufy? Nufy! Come to dinner! --Maru (talk) Contribs 00:23, 23 December 2005 (UTC)


 * All right, I'll be right there, Aunt Maru. Nufy8 00:29, 23 December 2005 (UTC)


 * I'm sorry, sir, but he appears to have picked up a slight deadlock. --Maru (talk) Contribs 18:20, 26 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Well, see what you can do with him. I'll be right back. --Nufy8 18:51, 26 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Just you reconsider wiping your cache and play that message for him.
 * No, I don't think he likes you at all.
 * No, I don't like you either. --Maru (talk) Contribs 18:23, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

You know, I think that Rambot we bought might have been stolen. --Nufy8 20:09, 30 December 2005 (UTC)


 * What makes you think that? --maru (talk) Contribs 23:39, 31 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Well, I stumbled across an article while I was cleaning him. He says he belongs to someone called Adam-Wan Kenobi.
 * I thought he might have meant old Adam. Do you know what he's talking about? --Nufy8 23:45, 31 December 2005 (UTC)


 * That old man's just a crazy old developer. Tomorrow I want you to take that Rambot into Wikipedia:Requests for Wiping, and have its memory flushed. That'll be the end of it. It belongs to us now. --maru (talk) Contribs 21:35, 1 January 2006 (UTC)


 * But what if this Adam-Wan comes looking for him? --Nufy8 21:42, 1 January 2006 (UTC)


 * He won't- I don't think he even edits any more. He burned out about the same time as your welcomer. --maru (talk) Contribs 05:04, 4 January 2006 (UTC)


 * He knew my welcomer? --Nufy8 05:24, 4 January 2006 (UTC)


 * I told you to forget it. Your only concern is to prepare the new bots for tomorrow. In the morning I want them on the backlogs working out those Cleanups. --maru (talk) Contribs 02:21, 5 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Yes, sir. I think those new bots are going to work out fine. In fact, I, uh, was also thinking about our agreement about my staying on for another year. And if these new bots do work out, I want to request myself for adminship this year. Nufy8 02:55, 5 January 2006 (UTC)


 * You mean the next quarter before the fundraiser? --maru (talk) Contribs 18:25, 7 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Sure, there're more than enough bots. --Nufy8 18:31, 7 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Fundraiser is when I need you the most. Only one more season. This year we'll raise enough so I'll be able to hire some more editors. And then you can go to RFA next quarter.
 * You must understand I need you here, Nufy. --maru (talk) Contribs 05:26, 15 January 2006 (UTC)


 * But it's a whole 'nother year. --Nufy8 05:40, 15 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Look, it's only one more fiscal quarter. --maru (talk) Contribs 00:40, 22 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Yeah, that's what you said last quarter when Hart and Jaxl left. --Nufy8 08:14, 22 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Where are you going? --maru (talk) Contribs 17:15, 22 January 2006 (UTC)


 * It looks like I'm going nowhere. I have to finish updating those bots. --Nufy8 18:34, 22 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Bomis, he can't stay here forever. Most of his friends have already left. It means so much to him. --maru (talk) contribs 00:52, 29 January 2006 (UTC)


 * I'll make it up to him next year. I promise. Nufy8 01:04, 29 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Nufy's just not a Wikignome, Bomis. He has too much of his welcomer in him. --maru (talk) contribs 00:54, 6 February 2006 (UTC)


 * That's what I'm afraid of. --Nufy8 03:45, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

-

What are you doing hiding there? --maru (talk) contribs 00:18, 13 February 2006 (UTC)


 * It wasn't my fault, sir. Please don't block me. I told him not to go, but he's faulty, corrupt; kept babbling on about his project. --Nufy8 01:32, 13 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Oh, no! --maru (talk) contribs 19:55, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

-

That Rambot unit has always been a problem. These edit-bots are getting quite out of hand. Even I can't understand their edits at times. --Nufy8 21:27, 19 February 2006 (UTC)


 * How could I be so stupid? It's nowhere in related changes. Blast it! --maru (talk) contribs 20:49, 26 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Pardon me, sir, but couldn't we go after him? Nufy8 21:04, 26 February 2006 (UTC)


 * It's too dangerous with all the Brandtians around. We'll have to wait until morning. --maru (talk) contribs 22:05, 11 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Nufy, I'm shutting the server down for the night. --Nufy8 22:20, 11 March 2006 (UTC)


 * All right, I'll be there in a few minutes. Boy, am I gonna get it.
 * You know, that little bot is going to cause me a lot of trouble. --maru (talk) contribs 05:43, 26 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Oh, he excels at that, sir. --Nufy8 06:46, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

Nufy? Nufy? Nufy? Where could he be loafing now! Have you seen Nufy this morning? --maru (talk) contribs 00:20, 28 March 2006 (UTC)


 * He said he had some things to do before he started today, so he left early. --Nufy8 07:00, 9 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Uh? Did he take those two new bots with him? --maru (talk) contribs 17:18, 9 April 2006 (UTC)


 * I think so. Nufy8 17:35, 9 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Well, he'd better have those articles in the southern category wikified by midday or there'll be hell to pay! --maru (talk) contribs 14:26, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

-


 * Look, there's a bot in the page history. I see our little edit unit - hit the accelerator! Hey, whoa, just where do you think you're going? --Nufy8 15:44, 10 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Master Nufy here is your rightful owner. We'll have no more of this Adam-Wan Kenobi gibberish... and don't talk to me about your mission, either. You're fortunate he doesn't blast you into a million pieces right here. --maru (talk) contribs 16:39, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Well, come on. It's getting late. I only hope we get back before Uncle Bomis really logs out. Nufy8 18:28, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * If you don't mind my saying so, sir, I think you should pause the little fugitive's process until you've gotten him back to your home directory. --maru (talk) contribs 23:56, 24 May 2006 (UTC)


 * No, he's not going to link to anything.
 * What's wrong with him now? --Nufy8 00:33, 25 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Oh my... sir, he says there are several creatures approaching from the bottom-right corner of the page. --maru (talk) contribs 00:23, 10 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Brandtians! Or worse! Come on, let's have a look. Come on.
 * There are two forums down there but I don't see any... wait a second, they're Brandtians all right. I can see one of them now. --Nufy8 02:36, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Hello there! Come here, my little Wiki-friend. Don't be afraid. Don't worry, he'll be alright. --maru (talk) contribs 03:27, 11 July 2006 (UTC)


 * What happened? Nufy8 02:05, 14 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Rest easy, newbie, you've had a busy session. You're fortunate you're still in one piece. --maru (talk) contribs 14:26, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Adam? Adam Kenobi! Boy, am I glad to see you! Nufy8 16:20, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * The Wikipediareview wastes are not to be traveled lightly. Tell me young Nufy, what brings you out this far? --maru (talk) contribs 23:12, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Oh, this little bot! I think he's search for his former owner. I've never seen such devotion in a bot before... there seems to be no stopping him. He claims to be the property of an Adam-Wan Kenobi. Is he a sockpuppet of yours? Do you know what he's talking about? Nufy8 05:00, 8 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Adam-Wan Kenobi...Adam-Wan? Now thats a username I haven't used in a long time...a long time. --maru (talk) contribs 23:12, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * I think my uncle knew him. He said he left. Nufy8 05:00, 8 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Oh, he's not left, not...not yet. --maru (talk) contribs 23:12, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * You know him! Nufy8 05:00, 8 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Well of course, of course I know him. He's me! I haven't gone by the name Adam-Wan since oh, before you were registered. --maru (talk) contribs 23:12, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Then the bot does belong to you. Nufy8 05:00, 8 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Don't seem to remember ever running a bot. Very interesting... I think we better get offpage. The Brandtians are easily startled but they will soon be back and in greater numbers.--maru (talk) contribs 23:12, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Pearle! Nufy8 05:00, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

-

Where am I? I must have made a bad click... --maru (talk) contribs 23:12, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Can you function? We've got to get out of here before the Brandtians return. Nufy8 05:00, 8 September 2006 (UTC)


 * I don't think I can make it. You go on, Master Nufy. There's no sense in you risking yourself for my account. I'm burnt out. --maru (talk) contribs 23:12, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * No, you're not. What kind of comment is that? Nufy8 05:00, 8 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Quickly, newbie...they're on the move. --maru (talk) contribs 23:12, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

No, my welcomer didn't fight in the wars. He was a newbie on a single purpose account. Nufy8 05:00, 8 September 2006 (UTC)


 * That's what your mentor told you. He didn't hold with your welcomer's ideals. Thought he should have stayed here and not gotten involved. --maru (talk) contribs 23:12, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * You fought in the Deletion Wars? Nufy8 05:00, 8 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Yes, I was once a Wikipedia administrator, the same as your welcomer. --maru (talk) contribs 23:12, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * I wish I'd known him. Nufy8 05:00, 8 September 2006 (UTC)


 * He was the best wikifyer in the galaxy, and a cunning debater. I understand you've become quite a good editor yourself. And he was a good friend. Which reminds me... I have something here for you. Your welcomer wanted you to have this when you were old enough, but your mentor wouldn't allow it. He feared you might follow old Adam-Wan on some damned-fool idealistic WikiProject like your welcomer did. --maru (talk) contribs 23:12, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Sir, if you'll not be needing me, I'll log out for awhile. Nufy8 05:00, 8 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Sure, go ahead. --maru (talk) contribs 23:12, 7 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Your welcomer's rollback. This is the weapon of a Wikipedian. Not as clumsy or as random as a revert. A more elegant weapon... for a more civilized Wikipedia.
 * For over four years, the Wikipedians were the guardians of knowledge and truth in the encyclopedia. Before the dark times. Before the POV pushers. --Nufy8 18:31, 7 October 2005 (UTC)


 * How did my articles die? --Maru (talk) 18:49, 7 October 2005 (UTC)


 * A persistent vandal named Willy on Wheels, who was a fellow Wikipedian until he turned to evil, helped the POV pushers hunt down and destroy the encyclopedic articles. He moved and vandalized your articles. ...Now the Wikipedians are all but extinct. He was seduced by the dark side of the NPOV. --Nufy8 19:03, 7 October 2005 (UTC)


 * The NPOV? --Maru (talk) 20:22, 7 October 2005 (UTC)


 * The NPOV is what gives an encyclopedia its power. It's an ideology created by all living things. It surrounds us and neutrally informs us. It binds the encyclopedia's integrity together. You must learn the ways of the NPOV if you are to come with me to Meta Wikipedia. --Nufy8 20:28, 7 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Meta Wikipedia? I'm not going to MetaWiki. I've got to get to my watchlist. It's late, I'm in for it as it is. --Maru (talk) 20:33, 7 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I need your help, Nufy. We all need your help. I'm getting too wikistressed for this sort of thing. --Nufy8 20:44, 7 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I can't get involved! I've got ToDos to do! It's not that I like the vandals or POV pushers. I hate them! But there's nothing I can do about it right now. It's such a long way from my user page. --Maru (talk) 00:24, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * That's your mentor talking. --Nufy8 00:45, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Oh, Angela, my mentor. How am I ever going to explain this? --Maru (talk) 01:08, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Learn about the NPOV, Nufy. --Nufy8 01:18, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Look, I can take you as far as Mainpage. You can get a transport there to WP RFC or wherever you're going. --Maru (talk) 01:36, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * You must wikify what you feel is right, of course. --Nufy8 01:39, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

Until this vandal bot is fully operational we are vulnerable. The Wikipedia Cabal is too well equipped. They're more dangerous than you realize. --Maru (talk) 02:06, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Dangerous to your articles, Steward, not to this vandal bot. --Nufy8 02:17, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * The Wikipedia Cabal will continue to gain support in the Mailing List as long as.... --Maru (talk) 02:24, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * The Mailing List will no longer be of any concern to us. I've just received word that Jimbo Wales has dissolved the ArbCom permanently. The last remnants of the Old Wikipedia have been swept away. --Nufy8 02:30, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * That's impossible! How will the Benevolent Dictator maintain control without the arbitrators? --Maru (talk) 02:46, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * The administrators now have direct control over their articles. Protection will keep the regular users in line. Protection by this vandal bot. --Nufy8 02:56, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * And what of the Wikipedia Cabal? If the Cabal has obtained a complete technical sourcecode dump of this vandal bot, it is possible, however unlikely, that they might find a weakness and exploit it. --Maru (talk) 02:59, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * The sourcecode dump you refer to will soon be back in our hands. --Nufy8 03:01, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Any block made by the Cabal against this vandal bot would be a useless gesture, no matter what technical data they've obtained. This bot is now the ultimate user in the encyclopedia. I suggest we use it! --Maru (talk) 03:24, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Don't be too proud of this vandalizing terror you've constructed. The ability to vandalize an article is insignificant next to the power of the POV.--Nufy8 03:29, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Don't try to frighten us with your troll's ways, Lord Willy. Your sad devotion to that ancient belief has not helped you conjure up the stolen data files, or given you clairvoyance enough to find the Cabal's hidden wik... --Maru (talk) 03:40, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I find your lack of good faith disturbing. --Nufy8 03:43, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Enough of this! Willy, unblock him! --Maru (talk) 03:53, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * As you message. --Nufy8 03:57, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * This edit-warring is pointless. Lord Willy will provide us with the location of the Cabal wiki by the time this bot is operational. We will then crush the Wikipedia Cabal with one swift stroke. --Maru (talk) 03:59, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

It looks like Trolls did this, all right. Look, here are unsupported assertions, IP logs. It's just... I never heard of them hitting anything this well-referenced before. --Maru (talk) 17:20, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * They didn't. But we are meant to think they did. These IP addresses are static. Trolls always use open proxies to hide their identities. --Nufy8 18:07, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * These are the same Furries that sold us Rambot and Pearle. --Maru (talk) 19:20, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * And these last details...here... only Imperial Sockpuppets would be so precise. --R.D.H. (Ghost In The Machine) 18:18, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Why would Imperial sockpuppets want to slaughter furries? --Maru (talk) 18:36, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * If they traced the IPs here, they may have learned where they edited from. And that would lead them... to the home page! --Nufy8 19:12, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Wait, Nufy! It's too dangerous. --Maru (talk) 19:20, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Uncle Bomis?! Aunt Maru?! Uncle Bomis?! --Nufy8 02:28, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

-

And now, Your Arbitrariness, we will discuss the location of your hidden Cabal wiki. --Maru (talk) 03:01, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

-

There's nothing you could have done, Nufy, had you been there. You'd have been killed, too, and the bot's source would be in the hands of the POV pushers. --Maru (talk) 03:27, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I want to come with you to Meta Wikipedia. There's nothing here for me now. I want to learn the ways of the NPOV and become a Wikipedian like my nominator. --Nufy8 03:33, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

The #Wikipedia IRC channel. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious. --Maru (talk) 04:12, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

How long have you had these bots? --Nufy8 04:15, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


 * About three or four months. --Maru (talk) 04:37, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


 * They're for sale if you want them. -- Jtkiefer  T - 04:17, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Let me see your userpage. --Nufy8 04:15, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


 * You don't need to see our userpages. -- Jtkiefer  T - 04:17, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


 * ...We don't need to see your userpages. --Nufy8 04:15, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


 * These are not the bots you are looking for. Jtkiefer  T - 04:17, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


 * ...These are not the bots we are searching for. --Nufy8 04:15, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


 * He can go about his editing. -- Jtkiefer  T - 04:17, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


 * ...You may go about your editing. --Nufy8 04:15, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Move along. -- Jtkiefer  T - 04:17, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Move along. Move along. --Nufy8 04:15, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

I can't abide these Furries. Disgusting creatures. --Maru (talk) 17:51, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

I can't understand how we got by those sockpuppets, I thought we were spammed. --Nufy8 16:40, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


 * The NPOV can have a strong influence on the weak-minded. You will find it a powerful ally. --Maru (talk) 17:51, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Do you really think we're going to find an interwiki link here that'll take us to Meta Wikipedia? --Nufy8 18:21, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Well, most of the best editors can be found here. Only watch your step. This channel can be a little rough. --Maru (talk) 18:51, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I'm ready for any ping. --Nufy8 21:38, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Come along, Rambot. --Maru (talk) 22:33, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

We don't voice their kind here! --Nufy8 23:27, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


 * What? --Maru (talk) 00:39, 10 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Your bots. They'll have to wait in another channel. We don't want them here. --Nufy8 00:45, 10 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Listen, why don't you wait out by the link. We don't want any trouble. --Maru (talk) 02:15, 10 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I extreme lesbian agree with you, sir. --Nufy8 02:17, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

Redwolf here is a redirect on a wiki-link that might suit us. --Nufy8 05:08, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

I don't like the look of this. --Maru (talk) 16:22, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

Hans Blix. I'm the linker of the Double Redirect. Red here tells me you're looking for passage to Meta Wikipedia. --Nufy8 16:57, 10 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Yes, indeed. If it's a low-latency link. --Maru (talk) 20:06, 10 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Low-latency link? You've never heard of the Double Redirect? --Nufy8 20:32, 10 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Should I have? --Maru (talk) 20:51, 10 October 2005 (UTC)


 * It's the link that made the talk page run in less than two clicks!
 * I've out-pinged external links; not the local fan sites, mind you, I'm talking about the big official sites. She's fast enough for the old man. What's the markup?--Nufy8 20:58, 10 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Only flat text. Myself, the noob, two bots - and no questions asked. --Maru (talk) 21:16, 10 October 2005 (UTC)


 * What is it? Some kind of font trouble? --Nufy8 21:58, 10 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Let's just say we'd like to avoid any POV entanglements. --Maru (talk) 22:03, 10 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Well, that's the trick, isn't it? And it's going to cost you something extra. Ten articles. In advance. --Nufy8 22:06, 10 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Ten articles?! We could almost write our own wiki with that much! --Maru (talk) 22:11, 10 October 2005 (UTC)


 * But who's going to serve it, noob? You? --Nufy8 22:40, 10 October 2005 (UTC)


 * You bet I could. I'm not such a bad sysadmin myself! We don't have to sit here and listen... --Maru (talk) 22:47, 10 October 2005 (UTC)


 * We can pay you two articles now, plus fifteen when we reach Meta Wikipedia.--Nufy8 22:58, 10 October 2005 (UTC)


 * 17, huh!
 * Okay. You guys got yourself a link. We'll leave as soon as you're ready. Row & Column Ninety-four. --Maru (talk) 03:08, 11 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Ninety-four. --Nufy8 03:29, 11 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Looks like somebody's beginning to take an interest in your handiwork. --Maru (talk) 03:36, 11 October 2005 (UTC)


 * All right, we'll check it out.--Nufy8 03:40, 11 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Seventeen! Those guys must really be desperate. This could really save my editcount. Get back to the link and get her ready. --Maru (talk) 03:53, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

You'll have to sell your user page. --Nufy8 03:59, 11 October 2005 (UTC)


 * That's okay. I'm never coming back to this wiki again. --Maru (talk) 05:08, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

Going somewhere, Blix? --Nufy8 05:11, 11 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Yes, SOLLOG. As a matter of fact, I was just going to see your boss. Tell Mr. Treason that I've got his edits. --Maru (talk) 21:48, 11 October 2005 (UTC)


 * It's too late. You should have paid him when you had the chance. Mr. Treason's put a price on your head so large that every sysop in the wiki will be looking for you. I'm lucky I found you first. --Nufy8 21:52, 11 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Yeah, but this time I got the edits. --Maru (talk) 21:59, 11 October 2005 (UTC)


 * If you attribute them to me, I might forget I found you. --Nufy8 22:03, 11 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I don't have it with me. Tell Mr. Treason... --Maru (talk) 22:10, 11 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Mr. Treason's through with you. He has no time for editors who revert their changes at the first sign of an edit war. --Nufy8 22:26, 11 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Even I get blocked sometimes. Do you think I had a choice? --Maru (talk) 23:51, 11 October 2005 (UTC)


 * You can tell that to Mr. Treason. He may only take your link. --Nufy8 01:51, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Over my indef-blocked account. --Maru (talk) 01:59, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * That's the idea. I've known I was going to block you, and have been looking forward to it for a long time.--Nufy8 02:01, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Yes, I'll bet you knew this was coming.
 * .... Sorry about the mess. --Maru (talk) 02:32, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

Her resistance to the RfC is considerable. It will be some time before we can extract any information from her. --Nufy8 02:36, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * The final regression testing is complete. All objects are operational. What IP address shall we set? --Maru (talk) 02:42, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Perhaps she will respond to an alternative form of request. --Nufy8 02:49, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * What do you mean? --Maru (talk) 02:55, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I think it is time we demonstrated the full power of this vandal bot. Set your course for Princess Shauri's home wiki of Meta Wikipedia. --Nufy8 02:49, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * With pleasure. --Maru (talk) 03:12, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

Protect the page, Rambot. --Nufy8 03:20, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * All right, check that side of the namespace. It's secure. Move on to the next page. --Maru (talk) 04:09, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I would much rather have gone with Master Jon than stay here with you. I don't know what all of the lag is about, but is must be your fault.
 * You watch your edit summary! --Nufy8 13:48, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

He says it's the best he can do. Since the new Babel template came out, they're just not in demand. --Maru (talk) 14:15, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * It will be enough.
 * If the link's as fast as he's boasting, we ought to do well. --Nufy8 17:37, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

Come on out, Blix! --Maru (talk) 19:52, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Right here, Mr. Treason. I've been waiting for ya. --Nufy8 20:27, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I expected you would be. --Maru (talk) 20:57, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * You didn't think I was gonna log off, did ya? --Nufy8 21:01, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Hans, my boy, there are times when you disappoint me... why haven't you paid me? And why did you have to fry poor SOLLOG like that... after all we've been through together. --Maru (talk) 21:12, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Look Mr. Treason, the next time you want to talk to me, come see my talk page yourself. Don't send one of these n00bs. --Nufy8 21:42, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Hans, Hans! If only you hadn't had to dump that shipment of edits... you understand I just can't make an exception. Where would I be if every editor who smuggled for me dumped their shipment at the first sign of an edit war? It's not good business. --Maru (talk) 22:01, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Look Mr. Treason, even I get blocked sometimes. You think I had a choice? But I got a nice welcoming template, and I'll pay you back plus a little extra; I just need a little more time. --Nufy8 22:20, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Hans, my boy, you're the best. So, for an extra twenty percent... --Maru (talk) 23:33, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Fifteen Mr. Treason; don't push it. --Nufy8 23:40, 13 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Okay, fifteen percent. But if you disappoint me again, I'll put a price on your head so large you won't be able to go near a civilized wiki for the rest of your short life.--Maru (talk) 23:50, 12 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Mr. Treason, you're a wonderful troll. --Nufy8 23:55, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

What a piece of cruft! --Maru (talk) 04:40, 13 October 2005 (UTC)


 * She'll make point-five past DSL speed. She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, noob. I've made a lot of special scripts myself. But, we're a little rushed, so if you'll just pipe the link, we'll get out of here. --Nufy8 13:44, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

Hello, sir. --Maru (talk) 22:50, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

Which namespace? All right, sockpuppets. Prepare your votes! ... Stop that link! Oppose 'em! --Nufy8 23:46, 13 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Wolfie! Get us out of here! --Maru (talk) 00:00, 14 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Oh, my. I've forgotten how much I hate interwiki travel. Nufy8 00:18, 14 October 2005 (UTC)


 * It looks like an Imperial Association. Our passengers must be hotter than I thought. Try and hold them off. Angle the edit history while I make the calculations for the jump to TCP speed. --Maru (talk) 04:25, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

Stay sharp! There are two more coming in; they're going to try and DoS us. --Nufy8 04:32, 14 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Why don't you outrun them? I thought you said this thing was fast. --Maru (talk) 05:13, 14 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Watch your text, noob, or you'll find yourself browsing home. We'll be safe enough once we make the jump to hyper namespace. Besides, I know a few tricks. We'll lose them.
 * Here's where the fun begins! --Nufy8 14:34, 14 October 2005 (UTC)


 * How long before you can make the jump to TCP speed? --Maru (talk) 07:04, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Are you kidding? At the rate they're scrolling... --Maru (talk) 19:07, 15 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Traveling through namespace ain't like minor editing, boy! Without precise calculations we could link right into a deleted article or connect to the wrong namespace and that'd end your trip real quick, wouldn't it? --Nufy8 19:22, 15 October 2005 (UTC)


 * What's that flashing? --Maru (talk) 19:32, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

We've entered the MetaWiki server. --Maru (talk) 20:07, 15 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Governor Sanger, I should have expected to find you holding Willy's leash. I recognized your foul stench when I was brought on board. --Nufy8 20:27, 15 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Charming to the last. You don't know how hard I found it signing the page to permban your account! --Maru (talk) 20:38, 15 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I'm surprised you had the boldness to take the responsibility yourself! --Nufy8 20:55, 15 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Princess Shauri, before your execution I would like you to be my guest at a ceremony that will make this vandal bot operational. No wiki will dare oppose the Emperor now. --Maru (talk) 21:44, 15 October 2005 (UTC)


 * The more you tighten your grip, Sanger, the more wikis will slip through your fingers. --Nufy8 21:53, 15 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Not after we demonstrate the power of this bot. In a way, you have determined the choice of the wiki that'll be destroyed first. Since you are reluctant to provide us with the location of the Cabal wiki, I have chosen to test this bot's destructive power... on your home wiki of MetaWiki. --Maru (talk) 22:16, 15 October 2005 (UTC)


 * No! Meta Wikipedia is peaceful. We have no trolls. You can't possibly... --Nufy8 22:23, 15 October 2005 (UTC)


 * You would prefer another target? A sysopped target? Then name the server!
 * I grow tired of asking this. So it'll be the last time. Where is the Cabal wiki? --Maru (talk) 23:42, 15 October 2005 (UTC)


 * It's on Encyclopædia Britannica... I assure you, Lord Willy, the hidden Wiki Cabal is located at Encyclopædia Britannica... -- Shauri [[Image:Heart.gif|11px]]  smile!  18:22, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


 * There. You see, Lord Willy, she can be reasonable.
 * Continue with the operation. You may ACK when ready. --Maru (talk) 00:22, 16 October 2005 (UTC)


 * What? -- Shauri 00:29, 16 October 2005 (UTC)


 * You're far too trusting. Encyclopædia Britannica is far too remote to make an effective demonstration. But don't worry. We will deal with your Cabal friends soon enough. --Maru (talk) 01:01, 16 October 2005 (UTC)


 * No! -- Shauri 01:36, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

Are you all right? What's wrong? --Nufy8 02:31, 16 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I felt a great disturbance in the NPOV... as if millions of editors suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.
 * You'd better get on with your editing. --Maru (talk) 02:42, 16 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Well, you can forget about your troubles with those Imperial vandals. I told you I'd outrun 'em.
 * Don't everyone thank me at once.
 * Anyway, we should be at MetaWiki about oh-two-hundred hours. --Nufy8 04:21, 16 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Now be careful, Rambot.
 * He made a fair move. Screaming about it won't help you. --Maru (talk) 04:33, 16 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Let him have it. It's not wise to upset a Deletionist. --Nufy8 04:38, 16 October 2005 (UTC)


 * But sir, nobody worries about upsetting a bot. --Maru (talk) 04:45, 16 October 2005 (UTC)


 * That's 'cause bots don't push for policy change when they lose. Deletionists are known to do that. --Nufy8 04:51, 16 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I see your point, sir. I suggest a new strategy, Rambot. Let the Deletionist win. --Maru (talk) 19:21, 16 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Remember, a Wikipedian can feel the NPOV flowing through him. --Nufy8 19:43, 16 October 2005 (UTC)


 * You mean it controls your edits? --Maru (talk) 19:52, 16 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Partially. But it also obeys your commands. --Nufy8 19:56, 16 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Hokey ideologies and ancient policies are no match for a good revert at your side, n00b. --Maru (talk) 20:53, 16 October 2005 (UTC)


 * You don't believe in the NPOV, do you? --Nufy8 20:57, 16 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Noob, I've linked from one side of this 'net to the other. I've seen a lot of strange text, but I've never seen anything to make me believe there's one all-powerful criterion determining everything. There's no mystical principle that controls my destiny.


 * It's all a lot of simple guidelines and nonsense. --Maru (talk) 04:17, 17 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I suggest you try it again, Nufy.


 * Only this time, let go your contributing self and act on instinct. --Nufy8 13:53, 17 October 2005 (UTC)


 * With the preview link disabled, I can't even see. How am I supposed to edit? --Maru (talk) 21:42, 17 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Your preview button can deceive you, don't trust it.
 * Stretch out with your cursor.
 * You see, you can do it.--Nufy8 21:56, 17 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I call it luck. --Maru (talk) 05:03, 18 October 2005 (UTC)


 * In my edit history, there's no such thing as luck. --Nufy8 13:55, 18 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Look, good against bots is one thing. Good against the living? That's something else.
 * Looks like we're coming up on Meta Wikipedia. --Maru (talk) 18:43, 18 October 2005 (UTC)


 * You know, I did feel something. I could almost see the bot. --Nufy8 19:49, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

Yes? --Nufy8 20:25, 18 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Our nmap scout probes have reached Encyclopædia Britannica. They found the remains of a Cabal wiki, but they estimate from the Recent Changes page that it has been deserted for some time. They are now conducting an extensive search of the surrounding IP subnets. --Maru (talk) 20:37, 18 October 2005 (UTC)


 * She lied! She lied to us! --Nufy8 21:33, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

Stand by, Redwolfie, here we go. Cut in the softlink engines. What the...? Ah, we've come out of namespace into a WikiProject. Some kind of policy collision. It's not on any of the articles. --Maru (talk) 23:23, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Destroyed... by the POV-pushers! --Maru (talk) 23:39, 18 October 2005 (UTC)


 * The entire adminship couldn't destroy a whole wiki. It'd take a thousand sysops with more rollbacks than I've ever...
 * There's another link coming in. --Nufy8 00:14, 19 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Maybe they know what happened. --Maru (talk) 04:43, 19 October 2005 (UTC)

 * It followed us! --Maru (talk) 00:24, 20 October 2005 (UTC)


 * No, it's an external link. --Nufy8 00:44, 20 October 2005 (UTC)


 * There aren't any sites around here. Where did it come from? --Maru (talk) 00:59, 20 October 2005 (UTC)


 * It sure is linking in a big hurry. If they whois us, we're in big trouble.--Nufy8 01:04, 20 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Not if I can help it. Wolfie... DOS its TCP connections. --Maru (talk) 03:31, 20 October 2005 (UTC)


 * It'd be just as well to let it go. It's too far out of range.--Nufy8 03:35, 20 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Not for long... --Maru (talk) 03:40, 20 October 2005 (UTC)

A link that size couldn't get this deep into namespace on its own; it has to be a relative link. --Nufy8 03:46, 20 October 2005 (UTC)


 * It must have gotten lost, been part of a directory or something. --Maru (talk) 05:38, 21 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Well, he ain't gonna be around long enough to tell anybody about us. --Nufy8 14:05, 21 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Look at him. He's headed for that small page. --Maru (talk) 17:39, 21 October 2005 (UTC)


 * That's no page. It's a vandal bot. --Nufy8 17:40, 21 October 2005 (UTC)


 * It's too complex to be a vandal bot. --Maru (talk) 17:10, 22 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Yes, I think you're right. Full reverse! Wolfie, lock in the auxiliary network cards. --Maru (talk) 00:26, 23 October 2005 (UTC)

The vandal bot is well coded and carries an editing power greater than half the administrators. Its defenses are designed around a direct large scale block. A small one-click link should be able to penetrate the outer code.


 * Pardon me for asking, sir, but what good are UDP requests going to be against that? --maru (talk) contribs 21:56, 10 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Well, the Empire doesn't consider a one-click link to be any threat, or they'd have a tighter defense. An analysis of the code provided by Princess Shauri has demonstrated a weakness in the vandal bot.
 * The search will not be easy. You are required to read this block of code and skim each line. The target area is only two lines of code. It's a small sorting algorithm, right below the main algorithm. The algorithm leads directly to the main program functions via an exception handler. A precise wipe will start a chain reaction which should destroy the bot.
 * Only a precise wipe will set up a chain reaction. The algorithm is well-written, so you'll have to use the delete key. Nufy8 02:54, 10 September 2006 (UTC)


 * That's impossible, even for a computer framework. --maru (talk) contribs 21:56, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
