Um, somewhere either on the Wiki or the Constitution I read to ask all your questions in one post, so..
Does that bot thing happen often? 'Cause I'm on right now around 8:40 pm and all I can see is "View Facebook Private Pics"..
How many departments are there?
Is it okay to feed Sues to LotR dragons?
Where can I find the Original Series mission "The Dark Elf"?
Does the cafeteria raise its own food?
How dangerous is the cafeteria food?
That's all I can think of right now.. -

The bot thing happens every so often, though we get rather suspicious of the timing. It happened about this time last year, and the year before, which is a tad troubling, but generally we have a few days of trouble before the admins can work out how to block the bot and then we have fun playing with the debris (take a look at the wiki article on the Ypur invasion for an example).
You can feed Sues to LotR dragons if the fic they come from is Tolkienverse or at least crossed over with it - as said below, you can't just take them from one continumn to another at whim to feed your favourite monster. Fat monsters no good ;)
The horror that is cafeteria food is a mystery no one has yet been brave enough to investigate. That is, I've no idea. If no one else knows either, decide for yourself.
My agents wouldn't eat cafeteria food if their lives depended on it. Which they have. But other agents seem to survive the experience and even enjoy it, so it's probably the Laws of Narrative Comedy (or their ilk) having a laugh.
Go ahead and ask more as they occur to you. The request to keep things in one post is to avoid having the same person start four or five new threads in a row - if you think of something in a week, don't come and ask on this thread, because no one will see it. :) -

I have a running joke in my Kelok and Unger stories that they eat in the cafeteria and prefer the meatloaf and pudding. The meatloaf tries to crawl off the plate and the pudding is blue flavored. What exactly blue tastes like I am not sure. The cafeteria food was the first food Kelok ever ate, so for a long time he actually thought the cafeteria food was how things were supposed to be.

I can taste colors by

No, seriously. Down here we have a kind of juice called "drink" (or "drank, if you want the phonetic spelling) that is maybe 5% juice. It comes in a great many flavors, none of which taste like what they're supposed to. Well, except Orange Drink, which tastes orange. No, not the fruit, the color.
The point of all of this is that I know what blue tastes like. It tastes like Blue Raspberry Drink. Which, in retrospect, tastes blue. I guess the only way to find out for yourself would be to find it and try it. Drink is usually found in the cruddy grocery stores. Food Depot, Piggly Wiggly, Five and Dime, places like that.
(For the curious, the other flavors are "Grape", which tastes purple, "Green Apple" which tastes green, "Tropical Punch", which tastes red, and "Lemonaid", which depending on the brand might actually taste similar to lemonaid, but usually tastes yellow.) -

I think it's OK to feed sues to LotR dragons (IIRC, one got fed to Glaurung in TOS) but it's not OK to move Sues in between canons.
As for the spambot, we appear to have been the unfortunate victim of a test run hence the insane messages earlier. I don't know what's going on exactly there, but I suspect the old board may have to come out of retirement here for obvious reasons.
