Floyd | Floyd | When young the orphan is commonly sent to an asylum, where by Floyd | careful cultivation of its rudimentary sense of locality it is taught Floyd | to know its place. It is then instructed in the arts of dependence and Floyd | servitude and eventually turned loose to prey upon the world as a Floyd | bootblack or scullery maid. -- Bierce | Binder says, "Oh, if we're already in warning territory, I'll take off my blue language mask." | |

Floyd | Olivia's Orphanorium was written for Cover Stories, a Floyd | minicomp in which artists supplied pieces of cover art, after which Floyd | authors each chose a cover and wrote an appropriate game. The games Floyd | were coded in three weeks, plus a two-week testing period. Floyd | Floyd | The cover image was selected by Rowan Lipkovits, from Google's LIFE Floyd | magazine photo archive; it is dated May 22, 1886, was taken by Wallace Floyd | G. Levison in Fort Greene, Brooklyn, and depicts one Isabel Harter, Floyd | who is unlikely to have been an orphan.

| DavidW says, "yay crazy uncle Zarf" | ||
| vimes says, "the HTML is, of course, produced by sleepmask to handle italic / bold type and so forth" | ||
| phoenix says, "by the way, how come the game moves in days and each day the orphans grow a year" | ||
| Jacqueline says (to vimes), "Yeah, I just didn't realize his game utilized it so heavily." | ||
| Jacqueline asks (of phoenix), "Age is but a rough guess. And you're evidently really bad at guessing?" | ||
| vimes says, "(speaking for the benefit of future civilizations who might find only this transcript and no further depiction of sleepmask)" | ||
| jenrexrode arrives, full of funk, but no fun. | maga says (to phoenix), "orphans do not age up at a constant rate" | |
| phoenix asks, "it's a relativistic house?" | ||
| Binder says, "no, no relatives here. they're ORPHANS" | ||
| maga says, "it is all wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey, okay" | ||
| DavidW asks, "I wonder how sleepmask tells the difference between <i> and <em>?" | ||
| vimes says, "the two-slit box of shame experiment demonstrates that orphans act both as a particle and a horrible, sucking drain on society" | ||
| maga says, "and a petty realism is the hobgoblin of simulations that turn into Dwarf Fortress" | ||
| vimes says (to davidw), "[italic type] versus [bold type], i believe" | ||
| Jacqueline says (to maga), "I quit believing anything you said after we didn't get our story about how little Timmy fails to save Sparklebutt from the glue factory, and I have decided to never listen to you again." | ||
| Binder oh, so it's to be a playthrough and an author's debate | DavidW says, "But [bold type] should be <b>, not <em>." | |
| Binder ilac | maga says (to Jacqueline), "it is called unreliable narrator look it up geez" | |
| vimes says (to davidw), "for some reason i decided that <em> was a more appropriate tag at the time, i don't recall why" | ||

| TheXenographer says (to Floyd), "x bart" | ||
Floyd ] Day: 1 Children: 4 Treasury: 50 Floyd | > Floyd | > X BART Floyd | Floyd | Bart Blunkett, secret son of a Basque rake and an ingenue. Floyd | His discipline is awful, his vigour poor, his appearance poor and his Floyd | morale mediocre. If families of good stock do not take their Floyd | responsibilities seriously, his kind will inherit the earth in a few Floyd | short generations.

Floyd | Her discipline is poor, her vigour bad, her appearance poor and her Floyd | morale poor. She is a walking argument for compulsory sterilisation.

Floyd | Floyd | Behold: Griselda Grimwig, daughter of a hog-grease hawker and a Floyd | Salopian landlady. Floyd | Her discipline is poor, her vigour bad, her appearance bad and her Floyd | morale mediocre. If she still had parents, they would have done best Floyd | to disown her. Floyd | Floyd | Miasmine Grimes, haphazardly-conceived spawn of an unwashed Floyd | goat-butcher and a joyless seamstress. Floyd | Her discipline is poor, her vigour bad, her appearance poor and her Floyd | morale mediocre. It falls to you to correct this want of breeding. Floyd | Floyd | > | vimes says, "yay all, a thing i recall sugesting and maga cursing me for" | |

| DavidW says (to Floyd), "x fairy tales" | ||
Floyd ] Day: 1 Children: 4 Treasury: 50 Floyd | > Floyd | > X FAIRY TALES Floyd | Floyd | First published over a hundred years ago, Lung's Fairy Tales come in a Floyd | variety of coloured covers, sturdy enough to resist chewing. These Floyd | appear to form the complete set, and to be mostly first editions; Floyd | signed bookplates indicate that they were donated to the Waifs and Floyd | Strays Trust by the author. Floyd | Floyd | Skimming briefly through a few of the Tales, you are shocked at how Floyd | gruesomely inappropriate they are for children; clearly these predate Floyd | the more pure-minded Revised Edition. You shudder to think what Floyd | schemes they might put into a child's head. Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW says, "Obviously we should sell these books and buy something more appropriate, like a delousing pillory." | |
| jenrexrode says, "heh" | ||
| Binder says, "We won't be able to sell them until the orphans grow up and become an audience of nostalgic suckers who'll buy anything which reminds them of their joyful childhood." | ||

Floyd ] Day: 1 Children: 4 Treasury: 50 Floyd | > Floyd | > READ BOOKS Floyd | Floyd | First published over a hundred years ago, Lung's Fairy Tales come in a Floyd | variety of coloured covers, sturdy enough to resist chewing. These Floyd | appear to form the complete set, and to be mostly first editions; Floyd | signed bookplates indicate that they were donated to the Waifs and Floyd | Strays Trust by the author. Floyd | Floyd | Against your better judgement, you open the nearest volume at the Floyd | first page. It tells a story about a king who, in sorrow for his dead Floyd | wife, "shut himself up in a little room and knocked his head Floyd | against the walls for grief, until his courtiers were really afraid Floyd | that he would hurt himself." This seems dangerously likely to Floyd | give solace to orphans in The Box, and to encourage them to draw Floyd | impious parallels between themselves and their betters. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "i" | ||
Floyd ] Day: 1 Children: 4 Treasury: 50 Floyd | > Floyd | > I Floyd | Floyd | You are carrying: Floyd | Athaliah Hertford's Manual of Childcare Floyd | The Compleat Orphanmaster Floyd | a gruel order form Floyd | a dinner bell Floyd | Floyd | Your institutional resources include Polychromatic Lung's Fairy Tales Floyd | and some ancient tricycles. Floyd | Floyd | Finally, you are responsible for four orphans and your treasury Floyd | amounts to 50 coins. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| TheXenographer says (to Floyd), "x manual" | ||
Floyd ] Day: 1 Children: 4 Treasury: 50 Floyd | > Floyd | > X MANUAL Floyd | Floyd | The bestselling guide from the leading authority on the orphan Floyd | industry. You turn to a well-thumbed page in the first chapter: Floyd | Floyd | The Government, firm in its belief that the private sector is Floyd | best-equipped to reduce waste and deliver results, will pay you a Floyd | stipend for each orphan and a further bonus for each child placed in a Floyd | gainful profession. Since the Government wisely abhors handouts and Floyd | rewarding failure, you will receive no funds for orphans escaped, Floyd | deceased, or who upon their majority have failed to become productive Floyd | citizens, ensuring their descent into vice. These are assumed to be Floyd | the natural fates of the orphan, however, and will incur no penalty. Floyd | Floyd | For further reading, consider the entries on discipline, vigour, Floyd | looks, morale. Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW says, "The inventory seems mercifully shorter than I remember." | |
| TheXenographer says (to Floyd), "read discipline" | ||
Floyd ] Day: 1 Children: 4 Treasury: 50 Floyd | > Floyd | > READ DISCIPLINE Floyd | Floyd | You can't see any such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| TheXenographer says (to Floyd), "look up discipline in manual" | ||
Floyd ] Day: 1 Children: 4 Treasury: 50 Floyd | > Floyd | > LOOK UP DISCIPLINE IN MANUAL Floyd | Floyd | Virtually all orphans have an unnatural want of discipline. Floyd | Instilling discipline and a sense of the value of hard work is Floyd | essential if they are ever to become productive members of society, Floyd | and should be your highest priority. Your orphans must be made to Floyd | understand that discipline is not just an abstract noun; it is is an Floyd | active verb. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| borowski says (to floyd), "read about vigour" | ||
Floyd ] Day: 1 Children: 4 Treasury: 50 Floyd | > Floyd | > READ ABOUT VIGOUR Floyd | Floyd | (in Athaliah Hertford's Manual of Childcare): Floyd | A crucial quality that most orphans lack is vigour. Orphans are Floyd | by inclination lazy and weak, but this can be remedied with a firm Floyd | hand. A robust orphan can earn you good money on treadmills, and may Floyd | get a position doing menial hard labour -- laundries, the infantry, Floyd | and the like. Never forget, however, that a strong, healthy orphan is Floyd | better-equipped to escape. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "ask bart about himself" | ||
Floyd ] Day: 1 Children: 4 Treasury: 50 Floyd | > Floyd | > ASK BART ABOUT HIMSELF Floyd | Floyd | Children are impervious to sense and reason. Your interactions with Floyd | them must be kept simple, emphatic and unambiguous, as if you were Floyd | training a dancing-bear or particularly stupid dolphin. They respond Floyd | well to DISCIPLINE, may be tidied up by SCRUBBING, and should be kept Floyd | occupied by ASSIGNING them to workstations. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| TheXenographer says (to Floyd), "read about looks" | ||
Floyd ] Day: 1 Children: 4 Treasury: 50 Floyd | > Floyd | > READ ABOUT LOOKS Floyd | Floyd | (in Athaliah Hertford's Manual of Childcare): Floyd | Of no small importance in this fallen world are looks. Most Floyd | orphans will resemble a diseased turnip no matter how much you SCRUB Floyd | them, but a few may become presentable enough to earn posts as Floyd | housemaids or footmen. A particularly angelic orphan might even be Floyd | adopted by a respectable family, which is the best racket of all; but Floyd | such happy providence is not to be relied upon. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| TheXenographer says (to Floyd), "read about morale" | ||
Floyd ] Day: 1 Children: 4 Treasury: 50 Floyd | > Floyd | > READ ABOUT MORALE Floyd | Floyd | (in Athaliah Hertford's Manual of Childcare): Floyd | Orphans are an ungrateful, unhealthy lot and may undergo a lack of Floyd | mental and physical morale; this makes them prone to Floyd | mischievious acts, such as escaping and dying of malnutrition. Be Floyd | firm, and remember that without you they have no hope of any kind of Floyd | true happiness. Floyd | Floyd | > | Binder says, "Those scamps." | |
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "x orphanmaster" | ||
Floyd ] Day: 1 Children: 4 Treasury: 50 Floyd | > Floyd | > X ORPHANMASTER Floyd | Floyd | This handsome duodecimo volume briefly summarises the most important Floyd | tools in the orphanmaster's trade, as follows: Floyd | Floyd | ASSIGN a dependent TO some constructive workstation; Floyd | also UNASSIGN Floyd | BUY items listed FROM a reputable catalogue Floyd | CONSULT a catalogue ABOUT the nature and quality of its Floyd | wares Floyd | DISCIPLINE a dependent, in a manner not exceeding established Floyd | standards Floyd | DISMISS vexing and bootless tasks Floyd | SELL unprofitable superfluities Floyd | SCORE yourself on the ephemeral scale of worldly accomplishment Floyd | RECAP tasks one has promised to undertake, then neglected Floyd | ROOM NAME, navigation for the navigation-challenged Floyd | SCRUB someone incapable of taking responsibility for their own Floyd | filthiness Floyd | Bureaucratically tabulate the STATUS of all your charges Floyd | Floyd | > | ||

Using this form Floyd | you can change your standing order with Slophouse & Sons, who offer Floyd | grades of gruel from 1 to 5, high numbers cheapest. Your current order Floyd | is for Grade 3, thin gruel; this will cost six coins a day. Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW says, "Looks like we ought to DISCIPLINE RANDALL, whatever else we decide." | |
