...so what would happen if I said "Fractal Clockwork", and left out a shape?
A pile of gears made of gears made of gears?

Question posted in its own thread previously.

For reference, my OS is Windows 8.1. Or perhaps what the most recent one is, I don't actually pay that much attention to that sort of stuff.
I use Google Chrome, and it usually serves me well. Last night, though, it reloaded after a crash...as some kind of app instead of the windowed program it normally is. All the tabs from all my windows were in one "window," which was...inconvenient. It also made quickly switching between pages a difficult task.

This morning, searching for a solution, I discovered an option that said "Relaunch Chrome on the desktop," and clicked it. The app closed, and...nothing. I reopened Chrome, got a blank page. Not even a "Your last session ended improperly. Would you like to get all those tabs back, some of which you were working on something in and would be saved if Chrome was working like it has been ever since you started using it?" kind of message.

So. Two questions.
1. How do I get Chrome back to the desktop mode?
2. Can I get those tabs back? If so, how?
Someone thought it was malware, and that I should just uninstall Chrome, run malwarebytes, and reinstall. This leads to two questions: Is this probable, and is malwarebytes safe? (Probably, but it doesn't hurt to check...)

"As a recessive gene, there only females who have shown powers."
((Actually, the recessive gene makes it easier for males to get powers, since they only need one affected chromosome to be affected. More information. Being a biology nerd, that explanation grates a bit.))

How much are you paying? Any data on their numbers, or percentage presumptions yet?

How much are you paying? Which range of powers, at what strength have been sighted?

How much are you paying? Any signs that jung might be recruiting, or his next move?

How much are you paying? - ahem - freedom will be given to me within your new project? Any Perks to it?


Yes, I had some fun again. Disregard the inner dialogue as you wish. If you wish.

"Well, you consented to send your daughter here and if you read the documents attached to the invitation, you both would be aware that by letting her come, you both agreed to participate in such events. Regardless of your opinions, you are still listed as her legal guardians. As a result, you are also the parents in law of a certain Victoria Knox and siblings in law with Director Mort. Not to mention grandparents to the young Miss Cyrielle Martin and yet to be born Miss Yuri Martin."
"And my adoptive grandparents!"
"...Why is everyone staring at me?"

"Eh, what can I say, she really didn't know what her heritage entailed."
"And whose fault is that, Ms. Martin?"

Ricardo walks back to Madeleine. "They took the news of their daughter's marriage relatively well. I don't think they realize who exactly their sibling-in-law actually is yet though."
(I just noticed that Ricardo's text is exactly like Nikki's.)
"Not sibling-in-law. Sibling-in-law is what Victoria would be to Selina's siblings and vise versa. And as for Death...dunno what he'd be. Marriage stuff is confusing."

Selina accepts the handshake then begins to wonder if she should drop out of school and become an artist, away from all the bullies.
[To: Angel] <Angel. Selina needs a bit of encouragement.>
[To: Will] <Huh?>
[To: Angel] <Not sure, exactly.>
[To: Selina] <Selina, you're great, and um...>
[To: Will] <I can't figure something out without knowing what's wrong!>
[To: Angel] <I was afraid of that.>
[To: Will] <Can I help?>
[To: Nuriel] <No!>
[To: Nuriel] <No. It would be unwise>

"Selina, is everything alright?"

"Thank you!" Meme hugs Will's leg before taking the bottle and gently picking up Momo.

"Are you hungwy?"
She asks as she cradles his body.
Momo reaches for the bottle.

Well, Breast milk is supposed to be best, not happening here, so I guess we need some formula then Meme,
"Not a normal baby. Milk should be fine."

"Says the person standing in the building of the institution that formerly persecuted and suppressed the people you idolize."

Actually, I don't have the spare time to join another forum game. My apologies, Friend Computer.
Please enter a retirement booth at your nearest convenience. Failure to enter a retirement booth in a timely manner is treason.
Friend Computer had previously declared that he would not force anyone who was busy to become a Troubleshooter, because they had already selflessly overburdened themselves in his service. You are giving an order contrary to The Computer, which is treason. In addition, you falsely accused another citizen of treason, which is treason.
Au contrare. Giglamesh was expressing disinterest in not merely being a Troubleshooter, but in participating in Alpha Complex activities of any sort. A citizen who does not wish to participate in participating in Alpha Complex activities of any sort is instructed to enter a retirement booth in a timely manner, so as to receive a pleasant retirement. Making false claims about Alpha Complex policy is treason. Moreover, defending a treasonous citizen is treason. Moreover, accusing a loyal citizen of treason is treason.

Anyway, this is probably that piece of shit malware that ran around on Youtube. Abandon all hope, uninstall that shit, run malwarebytes and get a fresh install.
Could you provide some kind of reference to this malware?

I have no clue how many VP I will have. Maybe a dozen? Maybe negative, with the criminals running around and the unemployment rates?
-snip-

Overall VP: 17
Tanks! Looks like I did better than I thought. Although I still seem to be dead last, or close to it...

Anyways, some calculations. If, in-person, it took 2 minutes to decide and reveal phases per turn, then about a minute and a half eachn to plan and perform each person's turn, then the whole game would have taken 286 minutes, or over 4.5 hours, to play the whole game. I...suspect my time estimates are off.

I like your backstory too.  But I don't like your math -

The Froggy Ninja - Skeptic.
GreatWyrmGold - Medium
Imp - Believer
mastahcheese - clairvoyant
Remuthra - either rationalist or believer (hasn't made character yet).
Huh. It looked like there was a lot more magic floating around the backstories.

The title of the first chapter/'case' is Why Don’t You Come Away With Me? A priest can be added after this case, though it ups the risks of something going wrong. And things can go wrong.
You misspelled "will".

First poster apart from me and you're late to the party. That just seems... funny.
The Internet is funny like that.
