I think Abel accepts them, now. :P
The random graphs from nowhere, I mean.

Well, that seems fairly obvious. Also means Fi's size increase may be a good visual indicator of the magnitude of Dan's power boost. May be. . .
obviously SAIA has yet to move onto powerpoint presentations. >:3

Perhaps the use of Microsoft products goes beyond the limits of what even SAIA is willing to accept.
I didn't even know Jyrras knew about Fi....

I think we're safe, so long as we don't see any sentient, floating and all-knowing paperclips.
:funnay
Insolent paperclip; I need no such help!
Besides I like OpenOffice better anyway :P
Kill the paperclip and open office for the win... Even the most powerful cubi wouldn't be able to get microsoft to work right
Diagrams can end all war on the world :B
Yes... Abel is now learning the true power of the diagrams. Give yourself to the dark side, Abel: we have tables and charts.
Random thought: You know that Dark God that DP is trying to resurrect? What if it's Clippy?
Well at least he's not using puppets, puppets creep me out.

No, you see, that's the next thing! He's trying to explain something to Dan, and suddenly realizes that he's holding a pair of puppets...

When will Abel now come out with a full scale presentation with Pie charts, animation of diagrams over time, and all the other stuff ...

Powerpoint, he needs to come out with a powerpoint presentation!

You might not be able to activate Microsoft products inside SAIA.

and we know why there aren't geeks among the cubi ranks, too... they bore far too easily. :U
Ah, I was partially right, partially wrong. It did "floodgate" Fi, but the output control was Fa'lina's fault.

They do teach grass-growing at SAIA, mind...
EDIT: More to the point, programming is liable to cover a similar overall skill set to spell design.
Why doesn't Abel just flip the paper over? The instructions on that must lie somewhere within that thick stack of Magically Appearing Diagrams (tm) ... I'm guessing somewhere on page 183-184.

A job for Jacob Pettersohn, perhaps? Or would he prefer OpenOffice for its cross-platform nature?

More than one author has compared spell-creation to programming.

I am sure there is a reason to break out those magic markers again
if my memory serves hasnt fi been an envelope before? couldnt the diagram be fi?

he probably needs to go get markers and somewhere quiet to think on how to draw it to best illustrate the point he's trying to get across
Seems to me like Abel's having a really crappy day and needs to take a nap. It also seems like this topic started as a discussion about diagrams, tables, and charts. Which I know nothing about.
So, if Fi's size increase represents a level up on Dan's part (presumably courtesy of Cyra), what does that imply about Dan's abilities? It happened well after his fight with DP, so we haven't see anything of its effects yet.
