User blog comment:E-114/The Regi Trio Parody/@comment-113335-20100309183039

Now, for the parody discussion, I'd like to intergrate the Regi-bots into one of our sites oldest tales: Quest for the Golden Waffle.

I suggest that the Regi-folks be ancient computers made of different elements (steel, ice, and rock), left behind by an unknown race of nerds? Each one is locked away in a temple of sorts built to house them and their workings.

The temples are secretly maintained by a longstanding group of elderly temple priests, the last of their linage, gifted with long lifespans, like High Penguins. The temple priests and their organization are predecessors to the Governance by fifty years.

The Regi-computers are all powered by hand crank, and they were designed to "find and perform the carrying of tens". Their workings are made solely of steel, rock, and ice, respectively. The rock and ice machines are very hard to manage because of friction and wear, but the steel must simply be oiled. The Regi-machines' output are all on strips of paper, in printed ink.

The Regigigas computer was built much, much later, in 1971, in secret, by descendent members of the same priests. It, however, was designed as a security system to access a necessary component for the Golden Waflle. To access the Golden Waffle's final component, one must print a calculation from each Regi-computer from each temple, punch a hole in each instance that a "1" appears, and feed it into the Regigigas-computer's input mechanism.

The machine unlocks the door and allows for the lucky adventurer to access the final item for assembly the Golden Waffle.

However, because the Waffle was made in 1990, and the Regigigas-computer in 1971, I'll just say that Leo struck a deal with the priests to store a component away.

I think it will help to get that archaic story back on track!
