I used to get a weird bug where when moving probes around i couldnt "grab" the top or side, even with my mouse hovering over the top space only the arrows would light up. It would then be impossible to do anything but click the arrows until i moved the probe around via arrows. Anyways it was annoying as hell and now whatever you did to the probing screen I can easily grab the probes and move them. I noticed they dont light up any more with the mouse I guess thats part of it.
anyways

yey

Cool story bro!

Slow build up, but well rounded at the end, with interesting character development and a storyline that keeps you guessing right until the absorbing climax at the end. Some authors like to drag out a story to enhance the feeling of conflict between the major characters, but this author has shown excellent self control and pulled back from that common error.

Grammar and spelling needs another once over by the Editor, but otherwise, not a bad body of work.

6/10 for effort
7/10 for the "wow factor"
4/10 for originality

Verdict: recommended reading, must buy.

I google'd parts of your reply and to my surprise I couldn't find exact matches elsewhere.
Did you seriously write this just now? If so 9/10 for troll factor.
