Same here. It looks like things have cleared up on your end, though. The last time you logged on was... strange.

[snowblindmods]

Things were strange, but I don't think it was on my end.

Miss Winter!!! Are you feeling better?

[She definitely sounds a whole lot better!]

[snowblindmods]

I think I should be asking all of you that.

@LELRIC; text

[armoured]

You too. You didn't sound so good the last time you spoke to us.

[snowblindmods]

From your point of view, I believe, but I don't think it was an error on my end.

[snowblindmods]

I can't say for sure what happened to you, but it seemed like some sort of bizarre connection malfunction.

[Joker trudges through the snow and blinks when he sees this message come through on the Network.]

Sure am, sweetie, are you?

[He tries to muffle his steps as he talks.]

[snowblindmods]

I'm the same as I always will be.

@Rdua; Audio

[blessedmaiden]

We are. Last time, thought, we couldn't make sense of your words.

[snowblindmods]

It did seem as if you were responding to things I didn't say.

@SceptredIsle; text

[keepscalm]

Some of us more than others, I imagine.

Welcome back.

[snowblindmods]

That's how it always is. If you can all understand what I'm saying, that's good enough.

[spoileralert]

Hey Winter. How's things?

[snowblindmods]

The same. I imagine it will be forever.

[canyouhandlethismany]

We can only hope the thing is mutual, Winter, last time we could barely understand what you said.

[IF she is Winter- but ignore him for being unnaturally suspicious]

[snowblindmods]

It did seem as if you were all having that issue.

[dr_unconscious]

Oh thank God.
Sorry about the mess, Winter. It's good to hear you're okay.

You are okay, yeah?

[snowblindmods]

I'm the same as always.

[phaseshifter]

Hello again, friend ♥ I was worried! I'm glad you're alright. Or as alright as usual, anyway. >o>;

[snowblindmods]

Hello. It's good that you all seem to be able to see what I mean to say this time.

[lionson]

How do you know about what happened to us?

[snowblindmods]

Everyone was talking strangely to me, of course I remember that.

@lockhart; text

[powersouls]

So your messages are going through correctly now? Do you think there was a problem with the network last time?

[snowblindmods]

That's my assumption.

[headjacked]

Hi.
I can talk but sorry I might be a little slow. Sorry.

[snowblindmods]

Are you busy?

@enhance; text;

[plundering]

Talk about what?

[snowblindmods]

The circumstances of my death.

Text @Enoch

[warriorscribe]

Hello, Winter. It's good to see your words as you intend.

What is it you wish to speak about?

[snowblindmods]

The circumstances of my death.

@fenrir; text;

[meteorrains]

Don't you get affected too?

[snowblindmods]

By what?

@Ecks | text

[ecks]

I think I am in a proper state. I thought I was in a proper state the last time. But it is easier to understand you now.

[snowblindmods]

There was some sort of error last time, I believe.

@zd; text

[swatsflies]

Yeah, they aren't doing whatever the hell they were doing.
Yo, Winter. How are you doing?

[snowblindmods]

The same as I will always be.

@gardenGnostic; text

[eclecticbassist]

hi winter!! :D
i think we established there was some kind of filter the last time we talked
anyway, youre talking about the chinese room
do you think you are a soft ai or something? because all of our previous interactions would lead me to believe otherwise

[snowblindmods]

I see I can skip past the metaphors, here. Before I died, I was not soft AI. Now that I'm dead, I am.

@zachtastic; text

[majorlazer]

Oh hey, you're back. Still not an AI, are you? You seem to be able to talk better today. Got reprogrammed?

[snowblindmods]

What you were seeing before wasn't what I was typing. I believe it was an error on your network.

[John reads through some of the other responses before adding his own. He might also be silently still flipping out a bit about what happened with going unconscious, but answers, you know? They take precedence.]

Hi, Winter. My name's John.
Just arrived here a few days ago.
I saw you explain the Chinese Room idea, but I do have a question.
Apologies if this is rude, but why were you made?
If you're an AI, there has to have been a purpose for your creation.
You seem like a very nice one.
Just as a friend to us?

[snowblindmods]

Some of it I can't go into without permission that I can no longer receive. Some of it is simpler. Acting as an interface between certain kinds of computers, acting as an experiment, being shown off at UN meetings.

[rattlingthestars]

If what you told Kain was true and you're ... some kind of messed up robot responding to the questions we ask, what changed to make you ready to talk? Who input that?

[snowblindmods]

Aligning my available memories and databases with my current situation required time.

[ninjainviolet]

I don't know about anyone else, but I sure am!

How are you doing, Winter? It's good to hear from you.

[snowblindmods]

I am the same as I always will be.

[He shouldn't, not while he can't lie, but there's something eating at him. That has been eating at him since Winter's last coherent message.]

you've said you think we're alive
do you think we're organic?

[snowblindmods]

Most of you. I know some of you aren't, or are only partially organic.
