Picture yourself materializing suddenly from thin air, hunched over, completely naked, with blue electricity bolts whipping around you. Just like Arnold in
Terminator!

New user! New user! Everybody come look at the new user!"
Hello, and welcome to the Caravel Forum. I don't want to say too much here. From past experience, I can guess that you are already committed to a single mission. You want to
post for help on getting past some tricky room in DROD. Am I right? I can see the cold, Schwartzeneggian resolve in your eyes, and believe me, I don't plan to stand in your way. That would be... a
big mistake.
But might I suggest that there are some other areas on the forum that would also be valuable? I know you tend to make your own rules, (or at least you have a minimal set of available options popping up on your HUD that directs your behavior) but some knowledge of local customs is always useful for those times when you want to keep a low profile and blend in. So by all means, check out the
Forum FAQ. Our webmasters take pains to make it an entertaining and relevant read.
We all know that your average, 21st-century automaton is nothing if not logical, so you might try your capabilities at
solving logic puzzles. Or, you can get new level sets created by other users from the
Hold Download Page. I expect your primary purpose is to influence future events, in which case participation in the
Architecture Board is advisable. Here you can test out holds before they are released and perhaps influence authors to change them with your insightful feedback or very large gun. Or try out the
monthly forum Contest for a chance to win a free game!
It occurs to me that I might have the completely wrong idea about you. I've been assuming you're some heartless cybernetic, intent only on direct solutions to your problems. But you might be more like Arnold from
Terminator 3, who has a tough time expressing the deep love buried inside his metal exterior. Or you might be more of a Kindergarten-Cop or Jingle-All-the-Way Arnold. Who am I to jump to conclusions about what kind of Arnold you are? I suggest that you post a reply to this post explaining, for everyone, exactly which character portrayed by Arnold Schwarzenegger best matches your personality. Or, if that doesn't suit your fancy,
describe any type of hero or villain that best fits you. Type your reply as slowly and articulately as you wish--we are patient and understanding, and even like that stuff. And if you find you enjoy this sharing exercise, also take a look at the lengthier but more expressive
Questionnaire.
Inoffensively Yours,
-The Caravel Team
