      You can buy parrots - on Lauralee in Zigra or something of that sort - and they even reproduce in your cargo hold, but if you jettison them, they just float out in boxes and sit there like any other cargo.

      I believe there is another planet with parrots, but even if there wasn't you could sell them with the multiplied number and still gain. Most of those types of comodities have two places to be sold/bought at either low, med, or high(I think it varies depending on what item. Like viral serum, they have it on two planets. One is i Kathoon(?) and the other is southeast)

    • What are parrots? Never saw them in my game.

    • Wow, now I'm confused. Sounds like one of the programmers couldn't get enough of parrots. Like, it's fine mentioning it, but having quotes and all these things in the game is just plain wierd. Lol, then again, the little song that's in EV(option click the title on the setup screen) is pretty wierd too. I don't think it mentions a parrot though or anything like that.

    • We should ask matt burch who hector is or about the parrot because in the weird option click at the begining it mentions hector as a fellow developer.

      Hector is the company bird. She is a blue parrot(at least I think she's blue) and they just have fun doing stuff like that. And as posted previously, she also appears in EV:O. I'm not sure about EV:N as I don't have it(none of my macs meet the requirements and its not yet out for pc)

    • Yeah I noticed a parrot on the fake ID card. I don't know why, but it always gives me a bad feeling when I see a parrot in the game. Don't know why... maybe the experience in EVO with Cap'n Hector traumatized me. Or something.

    • (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/webcam/")Hector(/url) is the mascot of Ambrosia Software, and is a real African Grey Parrot that resides at ASW's headquarters in Rochester, New York. All of the EV games have a përs named Cap'n Hector that enforces the shareware notices by killing you and stealing your cash.

      On #ev3, there is an infobot named Hector.

      For reasons unknown, the bird Hector is female, but the bot Hector is male.

      You should. It's not like anything bad will happen. It'll just ensure that only you will be posting with that name.
