I missed that thread originally, the post and the comments where a good read, thank you for sharing.

I got a kick out of this comment [0]. "BenjiWiebe" made a comment about the SSH packets you stumbled across in that thread. Obviously making the connection between what you were seeing in your game and this random off-hand comment would be insane (if you had seen the comment at all), but I got a smile out of it.
