Quake3World

Are we gonna follow the other survivors for 1½ season now? :icon33:

Huh? That was one episode. They're all together now.

No, just 1 show.

ok, watching it right now.

LOST always was slow. Season 1 just appeared to develop faster since it needed to introduce the characters and their backgrounds. From what I read, expect some big changes very soon.

All of the new characters seem quite interesting. Can't wait to get the story behind Mr. Eko

Same here, it's just not progressing fast enough... but sadly like a train wreck I am hooked in.

Same with that show Prison Break

Please, lets not have another lost topic.

And who was the sad fucker who thought the LOST sign was made in quake3 because he could see "the engine", wanker.

From all the information in the extras in the season one box set Lost is planned to expand over about 6 years worth of programmes.

Let's keep talking about Lost.

Don't get me wrong, I love it. I just don't want you good people to start guessing the plot and making idiots out of yourselves.

ITS A GIANT ROBOT....THE ISLAND IS A ROBOT! LIKE UNICRON!

That dude is bad ass.

I was hoping this episode would further the story, but I guess it gives us a good deal of where the second set of survivors is coming from, and what motivated 'the others' to kidnap people.

It's a big Skinner box. Who's running it and why, I have no idea. I just hope that Said(Sayeed?) kicks Anna Lisa in the cunt 'til her nose bleeds for shooting his wench.

Yeah I took a psyche class way back when and picked up on the Skinner box thing too. That Libby chick may add an interesting spin on that, being a psychologist.
I've read that Mr. Eko's club is a big clue to something, no idea what though. He has to be connected to the nigerian priest they found in that plane last season though.

It's called a monroe box idiots. :icon22:

"B. F. Skinner’s entire system is based on operant conditioning. The organism is in the process of “operating” on the environment, which in ordinary terms means it is bouncing around it world, doing what it does. During this “operating,” the organism encounters a special kind of stimulus, called a reinforcing stimulus, or simply a reinforcer. This special stimulus has the effect of increasing the operant -- that is, the behavior occurring just before the reinforcer. This is operant conditioning: “the behavior is followed by a consequence, and the nature of the consequence modifies the organisms tendency to repeat the behavior in the future.”

Imagine a rat in a cage. This is a special cage (called, in fact, a “Skinner box”) that has a bar or pedal on one wall that, when pressed, causes a little mechanism to release a foot pellet into the cage. The rat is bouncing around the cage, doing whatever it is rats do, when he accidentally presses the bar and -- hey, presto! -- a food pellet falls into the cage! The operant is the behavior just prior to the reinforcer, which is the food pellet, of course. In no time at all, the rat is furiously peddling away at the bar, hoarding his pile of pellets in the corner of the cage. "

Wow that totally went over your head didn't it?

I'm sorry I didn't get your obscure Simpson's nerdference.

In the episode where grandpa inherits all of B's money when she dies Dr Marvin Monroe tells him how he wants the money to buy a baby to raise inside a Skinner Box but he calls it a Monroe Box.
