So I've been playing this app called "Plague, Inc.", and it's amazing. It was one of the top apps of 2012, and basically you have to bioengineer a disease to eradicate all of humanity in a hyper-realistic simulation. There are several types of diseases, with each next being unlocked as you go along, and each one has it's own quirks. You can give names to your diseases, so these are the names I gave them:
Bacteria: 3-18-99 (I didn't really have any reasoning behind this one)
Virus: Ruku (Obviously)
Fungus: TA-418 (The original salve was made of different herbs and roots, as well as the salve, so it's reasonable that there was a fungal active ingredient within).
Parasite: Regis (Blackgaard was too long, and I'd already used Ruku for the virus. Get it, Blackgaard virus, Blackgaard's Revenge? Anywho, I thought it was appropriate)
Prion: BlackVeil (Because it was Andromeda's early research that made Dent go nuts and muffin-y and the satellite box rage and such. They thought it was like rabies in Alaska, so I can liken it to a prion infection)
Nano-Virus: ThinkTank (A specially designed infection ready to be made or killed with a radio signal. 'Nuff said.)
Bio-Weapon: Rukuta (It kills everything. "It adapts to dirt, water, air... everything. It becomes deadly on a wide scale." [That was typed in a Scottish accent.)
Also, this happened yesterday:
*Talking about Immune System in Biology*
Teacher: What should we call our virus? (In the notes)
Me: Ruku!
Someone random: Doug!
Teacher: Ok, so we have Doug the Virus...
Me:

Wow.. That stinks. Doug sounds weak for a virus. I hope antiviral drugs get rid of him.Leonard Meltsner wrote: Also, this happened yesterday:

Is this for iPod? I'm definitely going to have to give this a try. Clever idea though, you would adapt a game like this to fit AIO... Can we count on a MLP version next?
"And the Lord saw that man had created the Internet, and He was most distressed. For once people started using chatspeak and improper grammar, their level of smartness was decreased by more than 500%. And so the Lord removed all the gifts he had once bestowed on man, and it was very sad." The Book of Marvin, Chapter 351, Verse 442.
