Talk: Agent c

This is the Toaster... The Answering Machine can't come to the wiki right now. Please leave your message after the Pop...

Hi there!

Welcome to the Vault!

Welcome to our Fallout wiki, and thank you for your contributions! There's a lot to do around here, so I hope you'll stay with us and make many more improvements.

Recent changes is a great first stop, because you can see what other people are editing right this minute, and where you can help.

If you haven't already, create a user page about yourself! If you do, we'll be able to know you better as a member of our community.

Questions? You can ask at Talk:Main Page or on the "discussion" page associated with each article, or post a message on my talk page!

Need help? The Help page has an outline of the site, and pages to help you learn how to edit.

I'm really happy to have you here, and look forward to working with you!

Atomic Wrangler

I know they pay 6:5 on blackjack, but what other "slightly different rules" do they have? Can you be more specific? ALso feel free to add them to the House Rules section in Blackjack (the 6:5 blackjack payout is already noted). Thanks, JonCollins 19:11, November 12, 2010 (UTC)

I think it also hits on Soft 17. I wasnt confident enough that I was right to add this at the time and was waiting until I had a chance to check. Agent c 22:16, November 12, 2010 (UTC)

Crafty gypsy!

You and I both think Arthur Maxson is going to be in a DLC! Nice I bet that'd be sick Power Bonkers 04:36, April 25, 2011 (UTC)

Fallout 4

The link works fine for me, there's no need to change it. -- 23:21, July 13, 2011 (UTC)

Request

Hey Agent c I was wanting to know if I could become a moderator for this wiki. I know i probobly don't have the requirements met, and if you say no then please leave me name as a possibility.

Weekly digest

Hey I was wondering if you wanted to continue posting the blog for the wikia's weekly digest. I've never been a fan of the blogs so it would be helpful if someone would be willing to do that with experience. Thanks.--Kingclyde 05:34, December 2, 2011 (UTC)

Yes, I'll have to agree with Clyde. The Weekly Digests are have been good. With the state the Wiki is in at the moment, and the lack of known users and administrators alike, it's been difficult to keep up with what's going on. Not to mention I haven't been very active lately so I find your digests very helpful. On another note, you've been doing some excellent work lately and I'm sure the community is grateful. Thanks for the effort. 01:52, December 3, 2011 (UTC)

Hello

Hello, Agent C, I would like to thank you for keeping the fallout spirit alive on this wiki. I've done only a little bit of wikia editing so I have basic understanding that accounts are assigned certain accesses with one account having the most. I don't know the full details on how leadership has changed on this wiki and who has full control, but you have my vote for OverSeer.

For your efforts...

Ello. I just want you to know that I, along with many other members of the community, appreciate your contributions, specifically work to bring together and strengthen the community. Have a good day! SigmaDelta54 04:15, December 10, 2011 (UTC)

New Name Poll

Hello there! Since you seem to be one of the most active in the Forum, would you mind adding "Vault Control" and/or "Vault Headquarters" (as suggested by The Gunny) so people can vote upon it? I know it closes on Tuesday so the sooner the better. Happy Holidays! ΣΔ 01:55, December 12, 2011 (UTC)

Hello Chad! (May I call you Chad? :P) Anyway, would you consider an extension of time on the "New Features/Contest" poll, this way we can get more feedback from the community (considering there are relatively few votes/input right now). ΣΔ 00:09, December 13, 2011 (UTC)

New Name Poll... Again

Dear Agent c, your idea with the naming poll is brilliant! (The one with taking the 4 viable names into a separate 1 vote/user poll). This is the most accurate and equitable way to find a winner, I believe. ΣΔ 22:48, December 13, 2011 (UTC)

Chat fun

I'm wondering if you saw EB683's explaination about the kickbans? Both the one on my talk page, and then the other one in chat? I've not decided how I'm going to proceed with this. What's your thoughts?--The Gunny 03:42, December 17, 2011 (UTC)

nowhere even close to the edit count needed, and even less desire. Not really big on chat. I just pop in once in a while to check the pulse, so to speak. Usually it's just a bunch of sophmoric banter. I reckon I'll let the boss handle things when he gets the messages. I really don't like being lied to, though, even less by a mod.--The Gunny 04:01, December 17, 2011 (UTC)

Changed at your request, see I am nice!

And thusly, I shall leave you a message instead ^_^ HAI CHAD! "Even In Death May You Be Triumphant" 14:15, December 17, 2011 (UTC)

On the profile page, you edit it so you has a list where people can add their names so they say they are your friend! As to my Wikia, thanks, I need to work on it more. I have a YouTube channel counterpart too, there is me talking and stuff on it (I know, seeing me, horror all around!) lol "Even In Death May You Be Triumphant" 14:23, December 17, 2011 (UTC)

Nice work

You really picked up this wiki after ausir and a lot of the admins left and did a lot of work keeping it running eg. keeping things like newsposts updated and the vault running so id like to thank you for that and ask you to keep up the good work. --I like the noise my rifle makes "Carter190s" 13:54, December 18, 2011 (UTC) User:Carter190s

Blog trolling

Removed the most obvious messages, as well as an abusive post aimed at Smalls. If you need any more help, just ask ;3. Hugs ^{"Say 'ello to my little friend!"}

Polls

Good, it draws attention. You can write in your digest that after New Year polls will be written, but don't mention that I will write them - it will be suprise. MysteryStranger: Trust in the power of Infinity! 21:21, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

Good one, Agent c. MysteryStranger: Trust in the power of Infinity! 21:23, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

Nomen Novum Poll

Hello. Are you still running the new name poll? If so, it is time for the next phase of the voting. I suggest the aforementioned format to finalise this and get a winner. Contact me if you need anything. -Love, ΣΔ 21:39, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

I want to talk this over with Kingclyde. He's the bureaucrat after all and should make the final call on how to progress. Jspoel 22:08, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

Kingclyde's ok with a final poll. Look it over yourself but I think Fallout Universe, GECKipedia, Nukapedia and Fallout Wiki (I'd like that last one included) are elegible. You can create a new forum thread for it and and link it on your news digest. Also include the logo vote. Good luck! Jspoel 23:10, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

I don't see anything wrong with people already wanting to post logos. They'd have a choice out of 4 and will probably pick the one they like best anyway. And when the final name is decided we'd already have a few suggestions. They can add logos here. Jspoel 23:23, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

Oh yes, the admin the anon below is refering to is probably Scarface. He read Scarface's blog post about a grand exit, but I don't think Scarface meant he is already leaving. Jspoel 23:25, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ The anon is most probably referring to the dramatic departure of Billy Ocean. I'm not going. ^{"Say 'ello to my little friend!"}

Fairly sure, but I'll ask him next time he pops into Skaip. Hugs ^{"Say 'ello to my little friend!"}

I don't know what happened with Billy, best to hear from Billy himself. Hope Scar can get in touch with him. Jspoel 23:45, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

Digest

You may want to include in the digest that we've lost yet another moderator, if you weren't planning on including that already. 114.77.77.5

And, yes, I was referring to BillyOcean. From what I've seen around the wiki, he's apparently not going to be around anymore after the chat incident. 114.77.77.5

Whilst I was there, both as victim and witness of the event that seemed to be his resignation, I require some sort of confirmation. If you are indeed BillyOcean, if you could login and say "I quit" to someone, I'll be more than happy to include this. Agent c 01:28, December 19, 2011 (UTC)

┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ I can assure you, I am not BillyOcean, rather a friend of his. It is a shame to see someone like him do such a thing, but I doubt that he'll be back seeing as his last edit was over a week ago, which is a harsh comparison to his previous habit of editing daily. On another note, I saw that there is a new name poll going on, and people were giving you logos to use. I made one up quickly for the fun of it, and I thought I'd let you see it.

Here it is. Nothing special, but i liked the simplicity of it. Anyway, nice talking to you.

He-hey, no need to apologise, pal. If I were you, I'd probably be a bit cautious too. It's hard to identify anons when we can only sign off with a bunch of letters. As for the BillyOcean thing, I'm fairly sure Clyde has already revoked his rights and removed him from the administrators and moderators page. So, even if he does return, he's no longer a moderator.

And one thing just occured to me... does GhostAvatar's bot still sit in chat these days? Because that thing records a log of all the chat sessions. If you could get into contact with GhostAvatar over at the Vault, you could review the chat session where Billy kickbanned people and maybe it will give you some clues as to what happened. Just a thought. Anyway, see ya round. 114.77.77.5

Don't remember if it was on at the time... Agent c 03:42, December 19, 2011 (UTC)

New Name Poll

I assume you are making the poll? If you aren't just let me know and I will since I was going to in the first place, thanks. ToCxHawK 23:50, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

Just wanted to say, I agree with Jspoel on the candidates: Fallout Universe, GECKipedia, Nukapedia, and The Fallout Wiki. -Love, ΣΔ 23:57, December 18, 2011 (UTC)

Make the vote itself into a Yes or no format. Since as you pointed out you can vote multiple times.ToCxHawK 00:06, December 19, 2011 (UTC)

Yes, I see we've gone old school again. I knew the flashy voting thingy wouldn't work. -Love, ΣΔ 00:10, December 19, 2011 (UTC)

Lol, don't worry. I fixed some of this issues. I'll clean up it whenever needed.ToCxHawK 00:14, December 19, 2011 (UTC)

Haha, it's all good. I suggest you do a mini news flash to get as many people to vote as possible. Happy Holidays! -Love, ΣΔ 00:15, December 19, 2011 (UTC)

News page

Right, thanks for managing this, I'll take a look when I can. And someone has 1337 edits! HAHA -Love, ΣΔ 02:25, December 19, 2011 (UTC)

Name Poll

I think the capitalized Ps in NukaPedia and GeckiPedia should be removed. Instead they should be written "Nukapedia"and "GECKipedia;" I think it makes them look the most alluring (and makes the most sense) to potential voters. Just my opinion. ---Person of Refinement 04:19, December 19, 2011 (UTC)

Name Poll

It has recently come to my attention that people could create another (or more) account(s) for the sake of popularising their choice of the new name. What do you suggest? -Love, ΣΔ 01:32, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

It's definitely good to know the omniscient admins are constantly on diligent watch. I just want the poll to be fair and you can never be too meticulous. Good day. -Love, ΣΔ 02:21, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

Just a message

To say hi! ^_^ I now count you as one of my valued chat friends and as such, you are hereby allowed a hello message from me. So this is it. Hello! :p "Even In Death May You Be Triumphant" 02:20, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

If you wish me not to speak to you Chad then I shall make it so ¬_¬ "Even In Death May You Be Triumphant" 02:28, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

I shall let you off then :p I should sleep, should being the operative word there. As for me being fun? Yes, yes I am :p "Even In Death May You Be Triumphant" 02:32, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

Gah! Jealousy overcomes me! Hunters Chicken is wonderful! Can I have some? I am getting in my non-existant helicopter right now to come have some. You have no choice in the matter I am afraid :p "Even In Death May You Be Triumphant" 02:38, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

I AM ON MY WAY! Jeez, hold your horses man! And I s'pose it is supposed to taste like... BBQ Sauce? Just an idea :p It does taste nice though. I cannot comment on the flavour of an actual barbeque as, much like yourself, I have never consumed one. I can only imagine it would taste metallic. And ashy. Quite so, in fact "Even In Death May You Be Triumphant" 02:46, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

I wish I could dearest, I do. But alas, my powers do not extend to bending the mortal way to my will quite like that, I am somewhat limited in that respect. Sorry but "fly by my window and I will get up" made me laugh as my dirty mind turned it, well, dirty XD Btw, just noticed in your favorite Wiki's there is the Warehouse 13 one... good choice! The W13/Town Called Eureka crossover was amazing, but then again I do love Fargo! ^_^ "Even In Death May You Be Triumphant" 02:55, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

Digest

Thanks for offering to mention it in the latest digest, means a lot:) -- 02:41, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

Speaking of the digest, you may want to include why the community needs to change the name of the Wiki. It seems the majority of users still don't understand the purpose of the new name poll. 114.77.77.5

Updated your blog post

I added the forum thread topic about exchanging content with The Vault to your blog-post. I'm not as good with words as you, but I think it's ok. Jspoel 15:46, December 20, 2011 (UTC)

Christmas present

You have been given your very own row boat. Your efforts and diligence have not gone unnoticed, and you have been given a small token of appreciation. For all your hard work keeping this tub afloat! Jspoel 16:24, December 24, 2011 (UTC)

Getting your edit count up

Wow, yes that is kind of a bad ratio, 1500 edits, and just 100 that count for the moderator status. You want to become one then? Well, the easiest way to reach 500 in a few weeks is making small edits like grammar changes and link updates on pages. Together with those high valued blogs people are likely to vote for you. But do you think you really need the moderator rights? You can rollback with it and be a chatmoderator. Page-editing doesn't really seem your thing and do you spend time on the chat and want to have kickban rights there? Just some food for thought. Jspoel 00:19, December 25, 2011 (UTC)

This is not a circular, ok so maybe it is :p

MESSAGE TO ALL! Merry Christmas, hope you have a great day! If you see this, it means I love you enough to go to the effort of visiting your TP and copy/pasting this - well done :p Loves and stuff! "Even In Death May You Be Triumphant"

Awh! Work today, that sucks :/ Though I wish I was working today, triple time for 3 hours? One can dream. Well, least you are out of bed, I am not planning on moving at all today. Deadpool comics and PS3 calls meh, not a fan of Christmas so find no need to do anything special lol. Hmm, what could you do? Draw a picture for me! I liek pictures! And, if you can digitally send me said picture I will even print it out and put it on my wall for the world to see next time I make an AAP vid :p There! Sorted. "Even In Death May You Be Triumphant"

This makes me feel very special. I cannot draw to save my life, so don't worry about it :p But yaaaaay! Picture from Chad make for a very happeh Nicolle ^_^ "Even In Death May You Be Triumphant"

Can I come join you? I could do with £35 an hour :p But jesus, I know I would stay as well! Getting paid to talk to me? Lucky sod :p Sad to hear about the picture D: "Even In Death May You Be Triumphant" 15:15, December 25, 2011 (UTC)

I may attempt to draw you a pic XD Just cos I am nice :D "Even In Death May You Be Triumphant" 15:32, December 25, 2011 (UTC)

Mod req. Poll

Like I said in the comments, feel free to edit the poll time so more people can vote after the holidays. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! -Love, ΣΔ 02:33, December 26, 2011 (UTC)

Ok, well perhaps you should drop a message to Jspoel, and in the meantime vote yourself! -Love, ΣΔ 02:36, December 26, 2011 (UTC)

Nooooooooo!

Press release

That would be a great idea. Do what you think is best. Something President Edenish would be awesome.--Kingclyde 08:00, December 29, 2011 (UTC)

Please wait with that press release. I want to talk this over with Kingclyde. Jspoel 13:05, December 29, 2011 (UTC)

I see. Maybe Kingclyde already understood how you meant it and gave the reaction like he did (seen his vote). Jspoel 13:53, December 29, 2011 (UTC)

Cold War Relic

Dood! One really great cold war relic? Project "Blue Peacock", a British plan to plant nuclear land mines in northern Germany in case of soviet invasion from the east. They were to contain live chickens to keep the detonation circuitry from freezing over during the winter. Lots of people have heard of it, but funny as hell at any rate. 16:30, January 4, 2012 (UTC)

Here are a few magazine links about it, as well as the wikipedia page. Crazy stuff.

Also worth noting, project A119, "A Study of Lunar Research Flights", a US plan to detonate a nuclear device on the surface of the moon at its terminator (At the point between light and dark, for maximum visibility from earth) to boost morale after the Soviets took the lead in the space race. If that's not mind blowing enough, Mr. "Millions and Billions" himself, Carl Sagan was involved in the project.

Here's the wiki link, nice and to the point:

The War That Wasn't

Here's an idea for your War That Wasn't segment:

http://web.archive.org/web/20090103004324/http://www.cybertrn.demon.co.uk/guardian/

It's about an underground hardened phone system supposed to survive a nuclear strike, only it was outdated by the time they finished it. The site with the information on it no longer exists, so I had to use the internet time machine to find it again.

I've really enjoyed your news posts and this segment in particular. Keep up the good work!

Anon

Yeah, once a mod, now a meme. But I reckon you're the only user who has an anon on their friend's list. As for me, I try to be mysterious but I fail at every corner. I still don't know how Scar and ButterflyKiss found out who I was in the beginning. Apparently I'm too friendly and use good grammar :P 114.77.77.5 00:01, January 9, 2012 (UTC)

I do believe Yes-Man left the wiki. Whereas plain ol' Anon 114 still hangs out around the blog posts. In a way, I got what I wanted. I no longer have anything that ties me to this wiki, so I could disappear tomorrow and nobody would know. Well, except for maybe Scar. But think of it as this: If Yes-Man one day disappeared from the wiki, everyone would know, wouldn't they? I wasn't going into chat, I wasn't editing and I sure as hell wasn't moderating, so I felt it was time to make an exit, and have an account which wasn't so well-known. I see know that didn't work... 114.77.77.5 00:15, January 9, 2012 (UTC)

Ah, so that's how people notice me. See, I use the recent changes page, but it turns out everyone else uses the log pages... which would, of course, point out my IP. I just thought people used to just somehow know it was me, which would be weird. 114.77.77.5 00:23, January 9, 2012 (UTC)

I recognise both your way of writing and your train of thought. Then to double-check I hover the "Wikia contributor" link to see if it's your IP. Not that hard. Hugs ^{"Say 'ello to my little friend!"}

Logo

There're quite a few entries for the new logo. Perhaps you should set up a poll similar to the part un new name poll, where new candidates can be entered. -ΣΔ^{Let's talk!} 00:10, January 9, 2012 (UTC)

Can you delete a profane comment I accidently made on your blog at, http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Agent_c/Bethesda_v_Interplay_-_Its_all_over_except_for_the_counting, I was randomly typing some crap,and I accidently pressed something on my keyboard and it posted my comment and it has a whole lot of cuss words in it and stuff, so I'd appreciate if you could delete it. It wasnt directed at anybody and anything, I just did it randomly.. And could you delete this comment I'm making right now if you delete the other comment, thanks in advance. 184.4.160.35 04:27, January 9, 2012 (UTC)Agent c

The ghost who posts

Is that possible? I think it defeats the purpose of being anonymous. But I'll try. 114.77.77.5 01:15, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

God help us all if anons ever got moderator rights. 114.77.77.5 01:29, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

I should be an inspiration to anons everywhere. And if my IP changed... well, maybe I could do a better job at being anonymous, eh? 114.77.77.5 03:38, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

Fallout Online

Now that Fallout Online is pretty much cancelled due to the Beth. v. Interplay outcome, should we begin editing the pages involved? Or would you like to wait until Interplay makes its official announcement before doing so? --Divine Paladin 03:22, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

Re: Beth v. Interplay

Alright, just keep me posted. I was looking forward to the MMO, so I'd be willing to help edit the pages if this does turn out the way it looks.--Divine Paladin 03:33, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

Very true. I don't know, though, if Bethesda's claims and the court documents are true, it seems like V13 is all but dead, at least on Interplay's part. I doubt Bethesda wants to put in the money to create the MMO itself, as well. Maybe they'll get another outside company to do so, but I doubt it with the bad taste left in its mouth after this fiasco. Anyway, keep me posted as to what you'd like to do. --Divine Paladin 03:53, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

DPS

I originally wanted it deleted. But this guy really put in a lot of work. As long as it's related to the games, shouldn't we think twice? There are plenty of other articles that are more "miscellaneous", if you will. -ΣΔ^{Let's talk!} 19:58, January 11, 2012 (UTC)
