((It'll be nice when a death straight out means someone is dead.))

((Anyway, too bad they can't change Gray off mission controller, it's dumb when regular missions still have him talking...of course, those might as well be a "recording" anyway. I'm guessing Pace will be controller for the final mission of this subchapter. And, since Pace said a responsible operative might be present at the meeting, I'm thinking it may be in the crit. Live event with only one operative might *CENSORED* off some people, at least for something as important as this.))

((It can be done. There were numerous Zion missions with Anome's fugly little face on them as the controller, and the introductory tutorial mission features a portrait of Niobe and no other controller, as far as I recall.))

I'm sure there's some sort of "fail-safe" in store in case the Architect is deleted. Or maybe not. He does seem like the kind of old coot that would think himself immortal. Either way, I'd still like to see him deleted. If nothing else, we can see what this "backup" is and assess how it can be approached.

I sort of figured that another program might take his place so that some sort of order might be restored, but that perhaps that new order might be a slightly altered one. You know, where the machines aren't at our teeth simply because the Colonel ordered them to be? We've hoped that some other programs and machines have had differing... "opinions," for lack of a better term... for a while now. A change in the establishment might lead to a change in policy.

Hm, good point.  I just checked the Mission Controllers definition file, and it hasn't been updated.  Suffice it to say Pace wasn't added as a mission controller, so that's not gonna happen.  Could be the Operator, though.  Maybe even "Unknown"?

Or maybe Agent Gray will start leaking black code that spews horizontally out of his eyes.  Then he'll go around removing Zion viruses from Machine programs. =Pppp

((Just like the fact that Agents die routinely.))

Well, I really do think Gray has earned his re-assimilation in a big way. I salute his past efforts, and am glad to have served with him. 

I'm confident that this will be cleared up in a jiffy.

There had better be a back up plan.. though I somehow doubt the removal of the Architect would have the catastrophic result that some are predicting.  My thoughts are with Gray right now in hoping that he recovers and is back to normal operations as soon as possible.

Doubtful, I think the Architect already has a plan in place in case he gets deleted.  There's probably a back up copy in the source.

A backup of a damaged Agent program that's long been disconnected from the Source to the point that he can actually be classified as an Exile?

C'yea, right, you go ahead and keep thinking that.

((I believe that he meant there was a backup of the Architect, not Gray.))

When their individualism is slowly washed away, the only thing left behind is a Machine.

Ok  so im fairly certain the intruder is  Deus Ex Machina...  am I way late on this?    He is a cocky lil b4stard just like in revolutions   "WE DONT NEED YOU! WE NEED NOTHING!"

anyone else have this idea?
