So, from what I've been able to figure out, it looks like people arrive in this city pretty regularly -- once a week exactly.
We have to play along with this place's rules and fight each other or we'll be punished, we have to go to school or we'll be punished, and so forth.

Since I'm new here, naturally I'm rather out of the loop, so there's a lot I have yet to learn.
For now I'd like to get to know my fellow prisoners, if that's all right with you.
So if you don't mind, tell me -- What is your name, which school are you at, and where were you before you came here?

I'm Dirk, at Fortitude, and I'm from Houston. Pleasure to meet you all.

Sure. Maybe you could learn a few things.

[ Hahahaha

hahahaha

he is laughing to himself ]

Yeah, maybe.

[afraid_of_my_shadow]

Ever hear of organic computing?

[fracturedsoul]

Are you kidding me? No one's used that term in ages where I'm from, but I'm fairly handy at the subject.

[afraid_of_my_shadow]

Really? They call me a pioneer in it.

[fracturedsoul]

Is that so. Well, I've dabbled.
What's your last name, Alex? I wonder if I've heard of you.

[ Probably not, considering... But it couldn't hurt to find out. ]

[afraid_of_my_shadow]

Furest, or Onkeli depending on what pieces of paper you're looking at.

But I'm better known by my internet moniker, hack_rat.

[fracturedsoul]

Never heard of you.
Still, I'm looking forward to seeing what you can do.

[afraid_of_my_shadow]

Sounds good to me. I'd love to see what you can do. Not many people in my world make too much use of organic computing. It's loved in theory, but most companies cling to older methods. It's still practically impossible to get chips for multi-valued logic circuits.
