I'd pee my pants if it ever came out

Buh-buh-BUMPING to say I've added the Bank's worker-bot conversation, and replaced all nine doests in the Mechanist conversations with dosts.

Has anyone got a clue what's the deal with that bot conversation in the Bank level? Do we know why they are talking to each other (all other bots seem content to simply do their "praying")?
And what exactly are they talking about? The one bot is leaving? Of his own will or some orders? And why tell the other one?
Do we know what the malfunction they talk about is?
(not the water-arrow-into-boiler-kind)

It stands out as an example of how sophisticated they might be, verbally passing on instructions, inquiring about each other's plans, warning and assuring, stating no intent to enter the hazardous area, generally conversational, too. It could be a Mechanist prank, as well, since the bots are locked in place and the conversation loops.
I haven't gone in and looked for something the one may be referring to. I know the pressure-plated area is bad for any AI.

Just replayed Soulforge, and I just noticed a few interesting tidbit that could give us some scale for the City....there are only 30 mansions in the city....this is straight from Karras's own mousey mouth.

Karras: kar1602E: Still alive, Garrett? Thou scurries about like a mouse. And for what? Why not leave this place and try to destroy each of the Servants? Oh, but there are
thirty mansions, too many to infiltrate in one night? You misspend your last hours of life. 'Tis equally dignified to laze in a field and await thy death, heh.
I must say this is rather surprising information to hear stated, but it is in the canon never to be erased.

I'd never stopped to ponder this fact, good catch Iceblade! I wonder if they noted this over on mapping out the city?
Iceblade on 19/5/2009 at 04:24
Okay, that may not be 30 mansions total in the city....just those that got servants, which means each has large gardens....not all mansions would have them necessarily.

Yeah, jtr just sent me the same message I'll go edit my post on Mapping to say as much.
