: No postings for a week? Hmmmm.
: David - what is your current voting rate? I haven't been back here in weeks and it seems like very little has changed. Are you just not getting the votes these days or has V2 gone stale?
: I very much doubt you are likely to get more sense from the current batch. Looks to me like the shortened lines are just starting to appear. The chopped up units of sense are there already. Perhaps worth testing to destruction to see if things do degrade from this point on. I expect they will.
: What's on the drawing board for V3?
I don't know. I came in at V1, around poem 16000. They were short (the failure of V1) but nice.
Speciation is starting slowly, mostly 2 or 3 letters. As they lengthen further, we should see more and more nice interaction. Like the multi-cellular explosion, I hope.
As I remarked in http://www.codeasart.com/poetry/pearls/messages/365.shtml, I think the sense of meaning is getting stronger: some words go extinct, othres are repeted.
Give it another 14 days and keep voting!
