h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Er, Clones? The election is over... you don't need to keep my advertisement on your name...

[Y2K] It's done.

[sea] don't you get confused? i get confused, and there are only THREE of us. and my critters, but they don't talk.

[evillene] we forget which one of us is which.

Heck, I'm only two people with two entirely different accounts, and I still get confused. Well, that's if you don't count the accounts I create and then abandon...

I am only three different "researchers", which span seventeen different people. [shrugs] It helps that all but I have more or less the same personality.

[Flopsy] [He has the voice of Sideshow Mel] Evil differentiates seven of the similar ones. I am one of those.

[The six clones start singing "Alice's Restaurant" arm in arm]

~18 minutes and 20 seconds later...~

You can get anything you want
At Alice's Restaraunt
Excepting Alice!
You can get anything you want...
At Alice's Restaraunt!

Walk right in it's around the back
Just a half a mile from the rail road track
You can get anything you want, at Alice's Restaraunt!

*Picks up a stack of pictures with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one. Shrugs and throws them in a passing waste basket. The escalator continues carrying the group downwards, past more levels of labs and rooms full of electronic equipment. As the group approaches another cavernous level, GL pushes a button on the device in his pocket. An opaque screen descends from the ceiling of the level so that the view from the escalator is blocked. BBW turns to UH.*

Sorry, but this level is classified.

I'm game for the continuation of the duel if you are. Still losing to Chrome as well?

[sea] i have three accounts. actually... four. yeah. i think.

[evillene] she doesn't even know how many accounts she has, much less CHARACTERS...

Actually, if you check the forum where Chrome and I were dueling, you'll see we're both laying on the ground, dying, unable to fight anymore. We toyed with the idea of continuing the duel in Hell, but, well, Chrome just hasn't been around lately. I must say the Mission to Zork thread is boring without him.

By the way, UH, those pictures the Werewolf threw away, those weren't YOUR 27 8x10 color glossy photographs with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each one was to be used as evidence against us, were they?

[smiles with half-humour]

[Each clone looks in a different direction]

*They come to a new location. KL steps out of the transport, and into a large cavernous area. This cavern has several desks, filing cabinets, scattered paper, and money bags lying against the walls*

This is the STUMPED legal department. Occasionally we get sued for something that we didn't actually do, and these guys work great when that happens. They're also not too bad when we're accused of something that we *did* do. And when we sue other people. Such as the upcoming legal battle between STUMPED and CHOPPERS. But let's not worry about that. UH, you expressed an interest in seeing the torture chamber? Well, we do have one being constructed, but it's not quite finished.

*Whistles, and a large mining cart drives in. Everyone enters, and KL speaks to the Gecko Warrior driving it. The Warrior nods, and the cart soon begins moving through all of the tunnels and mazes that were carved to seperate the different branches of Krylma Mountain*

We'll be in the torture chamber shortly.

[Y2K snickers]

[regards Y2K with a baleful glare. He's good at these]

[Y2K jerks back]

*sea smiles and looks around at the legal department. a filing cabinet catches her eye. it is marked "sea/evillene/angel"*

[sea] you guys keep tabs on ALL of us? wow.

*evillene runs over to said cabinet and pulls it open. she rifles through a few files, pulls out a paper and turns to sea. sea looks terribly nervous*

[evillene] i KNEW it! ha!

*evillene disappears*

[sea] *sighs* i wonder which evil deed she found out about... i hope she's not planning anything serious.... oh well.

*NYC looks to the cabinet marked "sea/evillene/angel". he then looks to the next three cabinets marked "NYC"*
