The Trickster didn't show his face until he was good and ready, 100% sure of victory. Afterall he didn't even trust a Pagan to do his work, he had to go to a reject from the Keepers to get the Eye! I think we can accept that the Hammerites were the true voice of the Builder. Clearly the Mechanists were a very outspoken splinter group. That means that if the Builder was going to reveal himself like the Trickster did, he would probably only do so when a true balance was struck.

Think about it. The only reason the Hammerites and Pagans were enemies were because the former wanted ‘some’ progress while the Pagans wanted NO progress. When you compare the Hammerites to the Mechanists, the Hammerites progress with technology was quiet slow and controlled. Going by the assumption that the Hammerites are the true voice of the Builder, that makes the Builder the God of Balance. Trickster on one side, Karras on the other... the Builder slap bang in the middle.

What do you think?

Honestly, all kidding aside. I am going to a party tomorrow night. There will be loud noise, drinking and laughs. But I prefer tonight. I think it’s clear that a shared interest in a 20-year-old game is more than enough to cement a friendship. Being able to talk about something like Thief is just an example of what we have. Only this week I mentioned Quake to one of my ‘real life’ mates and the convocation just died and turned into one about internet gaming. Not like here.
