I believe Citrus beat you to that joke.

Trivia: The Portal 2 Companion Cube will hum a part of the "turret opera" when you're near. Probably AI in that box, if anything. We've seen the "Franken-cubes" too, so I find it more liekly Aperture would simply stuff AI cores into the cubes.

"I think that one was about to say 'I love you.' They're sentient, of course. We just have a lot of them." - GlaDOS

Either they have AI like turrets, or she's just taunting you again. (A previous comment was " "Uh oh. You're stranded. Let's see if the cube will try to help you escape. Actually, so that we're not here all day, I'll just cut to the chase: It won't. Any feelings you think it has for you are simply byproducts of your...

The rest is somewhat plausible, I guess, but Aperture seems fond of disintegration or incineration of any destroyed materiel and dead bodies, so for them to stuff a body into the cube would seemingly breach this . The cube also seems no heavier than any other cube, and several new ones can be dispensed at will. GlaDOS taunts you by destroy a few in front of your eyes, and the last one (if you manage to bring it past the broken Emancipation Grid) is also disintegrated in your hands.

Rattman is not the best source of accurate information, given his schizophrenia. GlaDOS may or may not be referring to him when she tells to ignore anything the cube might say -- because the pevious person to "listen" to the cube is the only one she didn't find and kill.

other weapon.

In addition to this, I've stopped the constant flight upwards that leaves them stuck to the ceiling, as well as stopping melee attacks that don't hit anything. At least, it seems that way at the moment. I've made AI Toa stop trying to turn on their mask when they have too little EP, to prevent the rapid flashing that occurs. Toa bots will now absorb energy when they don't have a target to kill. Finally, Rahkshi bots will no longer drop their personal staff in favor of just any...

I thought he was just running along with the Harry Potter reference.

You know, you're technically circumventing the (stupid) filter by using half the name.

Are you sure of that? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadricycle

Yeah. The thing is that most high-profile members - such as the staff - get lots of ratings, and thus the most statistically probable is that they donæt get only 5s or only 1s, they get lots of 3's and 4's. However, a brand new member with only about fourfriends who vote at all - and they all rate 5 becvause hey, this is a nice guy we just got to know - easily tops that ranking to 5 stars.

No, the total average makes your rating go up so long as you get high ratings. If I get rated 1 and then 5, the average is 6 / 2 = 3 stars. But if I then get a hundred 5's, the average is suddenly 4.99 or something, rounded to 5. Keeping a 5 takes an immense load of 5's, compared to the more average scores of 4 and 3. If you get 5+5+5+3 equals an average of 4.5, for example, which likely shows just 4 stars. As the number of mid-sized votes increases, the extreme scores needed to void...
