Mayday Posted December 10, 2003 Report Share Posted December 10, 2003 Imagine sitting at your computer when suddenly: TREMBLE IN FEAR BEFORE THE WRATH OF DESTROYER!!! Yes, folks. That's just what ol' Doc Destroyer's voice would sound like through our new Maxima car stereo system. New at CarToys! ----- Some new internet ads have no popup window, just an audio file. At full volume this would get anyone's attention yes? (Thanks to BishopOF BW) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wraith, being a computers guy and all, is unlikely to fall prey to this... but if he did, he's getting some payback. And if mundane means fail him, he has very very sneaky powers.... Flippant is a bit more law abiding. He'd try and protect his computer a bit better, but that's about all. That is assuming he has a computer; thinking about it, he probably doesn't. A waste of time in a life already hyper-busy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuckg Posted December 10, 2003 Report Share Posted December 10, 2003 Baron von Darien -- start upright, look hurriedly around, notice what was going on, be very annoyed. Dr. Pain -- probably smash the keyboard. Starguard -- ow. Random "startle" reactions from an inexperienced wielder of an 80-point Cosmic Power Pool can sometimes be a little, err, interesting.

lemming Posted December 10, 2003 Report Share Posted December 10, 2003 Calico: She's got very sensitive hearing. Probably hunt the person down like the dog they are and do something unpleasant to them. Ice Pirate: Well, I think someone is going to get the same treatment happen with their computer. She'd probably hunt the person down, replace all their computer speakers with 200db versions. Then set them to all go off in a couple hours... Scales: Don't piss off the magic user. Spectrum:Don't piss off the lawyer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormraven Posted December 10, 2003 Report Share Posted December 10, 2003 The Internet pop-up ad that can get past Gilgamesh (Checkmate's AI) deserves his attention. Since that's not likely, it's not an issue for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Posted December 10, 2003 Report Share Posted December 10, 2003 The only character I have who would be sitting at a computer would be Audra Blue. And no spam is getting through to her. But if it did... she'd be quite irritated. She'd track down the sender using her vast and frightening computer hacking skills and make their online life a living hell for a short period. She's not completely unsympathetic though; she'd mess them up for a few days, cause a few gray hairs, then put everything back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pteryx Posted December 10, 2003 Report Share Posted December 10, 2003 Jump several feet up in a startle reaction, then land behind his chair and conjure a crystal short sword, mace, or similarly-sized one-handed weapon and stand ready to attack if need be... wait... and then finally realize it's the computer. Close eyes, another pause as he half-consciously tries to "sense" anything relevant, come to the conclusion that there's nothing supernatural going on and no one else in the cave-like room... then finally lower his newly-made weapon and call for one of his more technically apt brothers to help out. -- Pteryx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyendasky80 Posted December 10, 2003 Report Share Posted December 10, 2003 This could be really bad for Janizary, he has his computer in his head. I suppose he'd freak out for a bit then re-format his hard drive. "Had amnesia already, whatever." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farkling Posted December 10, 2003 Report Share Posted December 10, 2003 Lightning:: Jesus. Not another one. Time to rewrite the security programs again. The Cold War has moved to the internet. Just who and where did this damned pop up come in from? Track that down. Destroyer has more panache than this. I should analyze the wave file too. Might be clues. Meanwhile, I think I'll send copies of that popup bug past the firewalls into the systems at PRIMUS and SAT. That will certainly get the proper people motivated. FlamJet:: Scratch one more computer. There are fires burning on his desk, and once again, he needs a new window in the office. He's hovering outside on a plasma jet, searching for Destroyer. If more of these come over the nearby systems and he hears it, he's going to need some work done on the offices too. After determining that Destoryer is NOT in the area, well, we'll be hiring a new head of computer security. The fellow that has the job now will be working for him. At a pay cut. This is NOT how we do business here. System penetration is unacceptable. We have STRICT confidentialty for our customers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandi Posted December 10, 2003 Report Share Posted December 10, 2003 Irving would probably jump back and brace himself rather than attack the computer. After realizing what happened, he'd call on the team gadgeter. "Flash? I think we need to upgrade our pop-up blockers..." "Sure thing Irving. And then I have a *very special* program I have to write," as Flash starts designing a customized virus... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farik Posted January 1, 2004 Report Share Posted January 1, 2004 Well since Husky doesn't use the computer it must be Kenneth stting in his lab he'd probably trace the origin of the message and then transform into Husky to see about rallying some aid to do some butt kicking.
