You got it.  Why did you pick Crops 068 as your board name?

Crops is short for Cecrops, the cursed ship captain that named Athens after Athena instead of Poseidon.  Thus forced to spend eternity on a ship always in need of repair and crew that were mortal yet he was not.

068, well 0.68 seconds, for an android, that is nearly an eternity.
