-Soren- So we could theoretically just do it again and again for each person?

@whizzball1

Theoretically, it could be performed as many times as necessary, regardless of the actions of Seth.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

???: Then I will simply observe for now.

@DarkwolfX37

Very well. Offer ideas if you have them.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

Yes. As long as she answers the weapon riddle, she'll be able to enter an otherwise impossible to enter room with a bunch of basic stuff. Swords, knives, darts, so on. Nothing long range more complex than throwing items, though. Just a random doorway that otherwise wouldn't work. Or if she gets attacked by a weapon and disarms them then she could use that specific weapon even without the weapon riddle.

@DarkwolfX37

Does she get unlimited guesses or just one?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

-Soren- That does make sense. But, even still, it'll probably only work once. Where would go from there?

@whizzball1

The benefit of such an exploit resides in the fact that once the hole has been patched, another hole of the same variety arises.

???: Perhaps my wording was inadequate. Are you sufficiently armed with tactics, Data Stream?

@DarkwolfX37

I believe so. However, more are welcome.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

-Soren- That's another thing I'm worried about. The first time we try, he'll catch on, and who knows what he'll do the next time, if we even manage to finish? If we somehow find a weakness, it may be possible that he could simply change it. If he can make what we do play by different rules, maybe he could make what he does play by different rules, too, although that may not be true.

@whizzball1

The more complex a system, the more points of failure. When a system is all-encompassing, the inherent circular processes become its own downfall.

*There is a circular motion of air nearby, similar to a small tornado, and a girl appears within it as the air spins her into existence*
???: Hello, Data. Having trouble?

@DarkwolfX37

Not particularly.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Galaxy Raider>

-Soren- But how can we even know what kind of limits it has?

@whizzball1

Stress-testing is indubitably an option, yet would be strenuous if not impossible to reproduce.

Myriad Reality

Sorry. Was eating.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

-Ruby- How would we find and fix the connections, then?

@whizzball1

I am currently in the process of determining that answer.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

-Ruby- So, first, we have to figure out how to not get kicked out, because otherwise everything we do is useless.

@whizzball1

Unless we do not require entering at all.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

-Soren- What if we made it--
-Ruby- No, he's right. Remember how easily Seth kicked us out of Spirit's mind last time? He just made us incompatible with it--*snaps fingers*--just like that.

@whizzball1

Mm.
