As I enter Mallory, I notice that EVERY SINGLE LAST POSTER is sgt. null.

How does he do it?

I vote we modify the board to not display user post counts anywhere.

Aww, where's the fun in that?

I don't get this game.

sgt.null is actually a bot built by aTOMiC to annoy dAN. Version 1.0 was written in BASIC and called Dennis R Wood. It's evolved since then, but it's still buggy. Sometimes it posts things like "Cheese believes Spiderman expects violin". But I think that's because its database was infected by an Anonymous virus when they tried to steal it and build a zombie worm to attack Google with. Anyway, about every other day, sgt.null sweeps Mallorys. I've come to think of it as an "all's well with the world" kind of thing.

WF, I sincerely hope Julie (MrsNull) never reads your post above. I know she is convinced Sarge is real...and she is fond of him to the same unbridled extent that dAN distains him.

DotD, we all had the pleasure of meeting Sarge and Julie at Elohimfest and we really missed Wayfriend's presence. So, in regard to the Nulls, Santa says it best (in the M&M commercials) "They DO Exist!!"

runlevel = '#';

read_inittab();//开始解析inittab脚本

} else {

initlog(L_CO, bootmsg, "reloading");

sigfillset(&sgt);

sigprocmask(SIG_UNBLOCK, &sgt, NULL);

}

start_if_needed();//解析完脚本后，脚本中的程序都已经被加入一个全局链表family，说是链表，实际上就是用next和prev串起来的一串要执行的程序结构。

while(1) { //可以认为init程序执行到这里，以下的任务就是不断地执行start_if_needed和收容僵尸进程了。

boot_transitions();

INITDBG(L_VB, "init_main: waiting..");

for(ch = family; ch; ch = ch->next)

if ((ch->flags & RUNNING) && ch->action != BOOT) break;

if (ch != NULL && got_signals == 0) check_init_fifo();

fail_check();

process_signals();

start_if_needed();

If this IS a game, points being counted in laughs, I definitely win!! Thanks for being real.

Initially, I deployed Mister Fixit in an effort to fix the Dennis R Wood problem. But all Fixit did was to provoke Wood into becoming the null, doubling what we were already forced to endure. Then I tried to invent the anti-null, in hopes that it would counter the effects of the null. Unfortunately, the anti-null, being what it was, never posted anywhere, so in that I was successful, but did not achieve the results I was hoping for. I'm in the process of creating the counter-null, which will hopefully offset the effects of the null. If that fails, I'm going to commit my efforts to something simpler, like ridding the earth of cockroaches.

Hi guys,

I just want to run a query, but after awhile it gave me the Conversion failed error. Here's the query I am trying to run:

"Is Null a phenomenon bursting forth in the midst of the postwar economic and moral crisis, a savior, a monster, which would lay waste to everything in his path. [He was] a systematic work of destruction and demoralization... In the end he became nothing but an act of sacrilege."

I prefer the human null, imperfections, quirks, and all, to any supernull or cybernull.

As I enter Mallory this morning, I notice that EVERY SINGLE LAST POSTER is deer of the dawn.

Null was created by my ego to massage my music taste. It devolved from vespers to mallorys. Sorry but serves you all right!

Null was spawned by the desires for revenge on the cosmos that lay in the collective unconscious of the M'allory, a now extinct race of winged humanoids that once lived on Earth's moon. Null is a nihilist and destroyer.

Null first became known to humans when it terrorized the town of Christian Hollow. There, it battled and was defeated by the Watch.

Null next possessed Dennis R Wood, and battled the original dANdelion.

Behind the scenes, Null enabled the Waymeet to take over the Watch of Earth-S and defeat the Watch Supreme. Alongside the Zen Men, Null battled the Watch of Earth Prime and the Watch of Earth S, and then drained the Watch's psychic powers. However, when the good of M'allory's was reawakened, Null ceased to exist and was seemingly destroyed.

Sounds like a great synopsis for a "Bad Writing" entry.

It took me a whole lunch break. Never again.

She says as we see a screen full of Deer of the Dawn posts.

You probably got a lot more respect for the ole' sarge, now, don't ya? Did you think it was easy keeping up such a post rate?
