--- Quote from: BenRG on 09 Apr 2018, 23:22 ---... What is very interesting is that he lives in the same apartment block as Melon and Roko. I wonder if he knows the lonely Officer Basilisk? More importantly, I wonder if he knows about her need for bread? ...

Oh dear, the penny only now dropped with me; bread fetish... a place called Secret Bakery... This must be true romance in the making! And I expect Jim had not yet spilled all the beans to Veronica about his 'Vanille life style'. Oh dear, that one just dropped too.

And on a more recent note:

whoaaaa!

dexeron:
All I want now is a guest strip where Elliot sings this to Roko.

I want your loaf and
I want your whole wheat
you and me could write a bread romance.

Rye, naan, chapati
Anpan, chiabatta
cornbread, ooh-la-la!
Want your bread romance.

Were you around for the technicolour booze visions in the era of strips 500-1000?

Yes, that was good fun. Still, the prospect of smoking pot with my mother is one of the most foreign things I can think of.

--- Quote from: Storel on 10 Apr 2018, 18:23 ---Possible, but seems a little unlikely. If it's a 3-digit code, that's 1000 possible combinations (000 to 999), and if it's a 4-digit code that's 10,000 possible combos -- frankly, I don't think Melon's got enough dexterity to enter that many codes quickly enough to get into the apartment in a reasonable amount of time. (Like, less than half an hour.)
--- End quote ---

We know that Roko's door code is only three numbers, so assuming that Melon's fingers are at least as fast as mine, she could easily punch in all the possible combinations in less than 15 minutes.
--- End quote ---

Big assumption. Melon seems to be exceptionally clumsy for a robot, so I really do doubt that she has the dexterity to enter numbers that fast.

Good catch on the codes only having three digits; I'd forgotten that comment from Jeph.


--- Quote from: awgiedawgie on 10 Apr 2018, 19:04 ---That leaves the only other possibilities being that A) Melon can electronically "crack" the code without actually entering it (hope Roko doesn't find out), or B) Elliott didn't lock his door after he came in - which is far more likely.

--- End quote ---

Except that most such systems automatically lock the door again as soon as you close it. Otherwise people would always be forgetting to relock their doors after coming in.

Then again, if this system is cheap enough to only have 3-digit codes, maybe it does have to be manually relocked. Especially since this is a fairly small town, so people aren't as security-conscious as city dwellers.

--- Quote from: BenRG on 10 Apr 2018, 23:22 ---I can't help but wonder what the autocorrect turned 'son' into. It has to be something contextually right and starting with 'S'. I'm thinking 's o' for 'significant other', because the last thing Mrs A wants is to give one of her many admirers the idea that she has a favourite that isn't them!
--- End quote ---

Jeph's an Apple user, and on iOS, you can make anything autocorrect into anything else.

There's a hypothesis that someone in the Patreon comments made, that the autocorrect was from "son" to "daughter".
