Retech

Usually when people steal my work, I get agitated and try to destroy it. That is why I only asked to destroy the Kirby, and not affect the Unity at all. I'm trying to discourage people from taking my stuff, because I thought they would learn from precedent that I try to destroy stuff when that happens, but apparantly they have not learned yet...

I thought it was clear that I wasn't playing anymore. Also considering that half the reason I did my very best to destroy the Kirby was to make sure that Faust wouldn't get anything from it, then even if I were still playing, I would do my best to thwart Faust's collection of debts. (Not researching anything, not performing missions for reward, etc)

Well, if you look at my past track record of [bleep] for tat, an eye for an eye, anthrax for FOAB, I think you already know my answer to that. :)

[hide] [23:24] <Jeremiah> Or you can turn yourself in and not screw the game mechanics up, but you being you, that isn't going to happen, is it?

[23:25] <Jen> Well Jeremiah, I would fight before I turned myself in [23:25] <Jen> But I don't want to upset the relations with the Brits [23:25] <Jeremiah> Indeed... [23:25] <Jen> So the only option for me is to run [23:26] <Jen> AI, approximate time for them to reach the Kirby? [23:26] <Jen> (We're still paused, right?) [23:26] <AI> Alessandro, A War Criminal, Jen Sonla, is aboard, she must be arrested and brought to justice [23:26] <AI> Yeah, still paused [23:26] <AI> Jen, around 11 minutes [23:26] <Chi> Sorry, g2g, others want to sleep here. [23:26] <Jeremiah> hrrmmm... [23:26] <Chi> Bye. [23:27] <AI> bi [23:27] <Jen> And approximate time for Kirby to leap into hyperdrive? [23:27] <Jeremiah> Are you sure you can't turn yourself in, Jen? 06[23:27] * Alessandro America, that is acceptable. Unity out. [23:27] <Jeremiah> I'm sure there is some way to sort this all out. [23:27] <AI> Jen, 43 minutes [23:27] <Alessandro> Ai, close comms [23:27] <AI> Comms closde [23:27] <Jeremiah> Or we can clone you and give them the clone. [23:27] <Jen> Wait, how is it so long? [23:27] <Jen> I thought we were like 10 mins from the edge of the system [23:27] <AI> Jen, it takes 30 minutes to charge up and 13 minutes to reach the edge of the system [23:27] <Jen> Ah [23:27] <Jeremiah> Ai, do we have facilities aboard to fabricate a clone? [23:28] <AI> Jeremiah, the Kirby does [23:28] <Jen> Dooo dooo dooo >.> [23:28] <Jeremiah> Okay, let's do that. Jen, you need to change your name, fingerprints, irises, and everything [23:28] <Jen> And how do you make a clone? And how do clones work? 03[23:28] * HwP-ECHO_12 ([email protected]) has joined #space11 [23:28] <Jeremiah> You need a new identity. 02[23:28] * HwP-ECHO_12 ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: Rooms iPhone IRC Client http://www.roomsapp.mobi) [23:28] <Jen> Perfect, wtihout actually changing characters [23:28] <Alessandro> AI, which of the Russian, American, and British ships iss closest to the Kirby? [23:29] <AI> Alessandro, the Russians [23:29] <Jen> Jeremiah, can you negotiate to stop the British? [23:29] <Jeremiah> Okay, AI, do we currently have the required resources to close Jen? [23:29] <AI> No [23:29] <Jeremiah> There's nothing i can do. They don't like you either. [23:29] <HwP-ECHO_120> ( I'll tear Jen's eyes out if need be...?) [23:29] <Jen> Wait [23:29] <Alessandro> AI, run sim, Kirby vs. Glazco [23:29] <Jeremiah> How many resources are required, AI? [23:29] <Jen> AI, how many resources needed for cloning?

[23:30] <AI> Jen, ok... 03[23:30] * HwP-ECHO_12 is now known as HwP-ECHO_120 [23:30] <Drake> you could try passing a holobot off as Jen...? [23:31] <Jeremiah> So what is happening, Jen? [23:31] <Jeremiah> They'll probably want to execute her, Drake. [23:31] <Jeremiah> At which point, we're screwed/ [23:31] <Jen> Okay, so Jen goes with the Brits after they offer a lenient punishment [23:31] <Drake> it would buy us time to either run or make a clone [23:31] <Theros> At which point, we've stalled enough to get outta here [23:31] <Jen> The only self-less act she ever did [23:31] <Jeremiah> I'll keep the Kirby safe while you're gone. [/hide] You still used a game mechanic reason to convince me. Which I belieeeeve is metagaming. That doesn't really matter anymore. Oh Earth, what was the puzzle that was on the last will package?

It's also not cool to use game mechanics, which is also metagaming, to convince someone not to run away and ruin game mechanics. And saying that it would be a good idea to remake my character so that there wouldn't be as many problems. So I definitely would not roll with it. --- Also, I am aware that you didn't say anything about anyone being captain of the Kirby. I made that specific, because in light of the fact that I built it from scratch, it should've had the tag (owned by Jen) like all of those mining ships.

I was pretty sure that I wasn't going to get it back, but it never hurts to have a little bit of faith that Jeremiah would come through. In the end, it turned out the way I wanted though. And don't blame Earth for what he did. The thingy would've blown up even if it was scanned, so it's not like what he did made much of a difference. (What did he do?) Time to the first hours of sleep I've had in the past 48 hours!

Okay, just came back from PuMaC. Great math competition! I was just a freshman, so I didn't win any awards or anything, but it was still amazing! So like I'm getting back really late, but I just read on Archi's post that the Kirby was destroyed, which meant that you didn't give me back my ship. Or you did but then Archi didn't send the message in time for you to stop Earth. Thank you Archi. :thumbup: --- Considering that the reason I didn't run was because I didn't want to screw game mechanics, I had no problem with metagaming.

Mission accomplished. -Malevolent Spirit of Jen

Actually, I didn't think of anthrax. That probaly is more fitting. The ultimate weapon of revenge, used throughout the ages. By me. :thumbsup: A safer bet would be to scan the package first though, instead of just opening it.

Well I didn't actually get the chance to make this package, so it was the NPC Jen who did this. My best guess is that it's either a bomb (because she's naturally like that) or it's the package of technologies that I was keeping from everyone (level 30 shielding, yippee). Maybe open it inside a crew quarters or something so that if it turns out to be a bomb, it won't do as much damage?

Then let it be destroyed. I would rather have it crash into a planet than have it commandeered, even when it is by the crew.

Nex, it was my ship. Period. If anyone is talking about things like this, it should be Earth or Jeremiah, not you. It is true that Theros is selfless and all that stuff, but I was still the one who built the ship. I should have the say on what happens to it. I would rather have it destroyed than having it benefit you.

(It was haunted before I was dead, so undoubtedly it would be even more haunted now that Jen's gone.)

Theros has removed my ship and taken it away. Meanwhile Jeremiah sits by idly and allows that oaf to steal my hard work. I shall have my revenge...someday. -Malevolent Spirit of Jen

Jeremiah, I seek reinstatement as commander of the Kirby, since I put all that work into it while the rest of you did basically nothing on it. You said that you would protect the Kirby for me while I was gone, and I only performed that manuever to hide the Kirby. I fufilled my end of the bargain by surrendering peacefully and not screwing up game mechanics by fleeing or whatever, so keep your end of the bargain. (Bar Jeremiah who equipped it with some weapons and Earth, who did a LOT of repairs). It still doesn't overlook the fact that even with all this damage, the Kirby has still turned a profit.

Well it's rather swell that you repair the Kirby and took it over, when I built more than two million energy credits worth of it and your investment seems to have completely purchased it...

I have found the AI logs in the crew diaries, and I have hidden in my crew quarters to solve them. Nice try, but I think my unpleasant surprise came a bit earlier than the AI hoped for. *hints that I solved it* -Jen

Wut the heck is that.

It appears you've encrypted this well Archi. :) Rawrg I will solve.

I wanted to off-load a bay on the Unity, but it seems that it is still full. We can always get that another time.

How much will it cost to repair?

Arch, wasn't the cargo bay in the Unity destroyed?

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

It doesn't seem to work that way Mather. If I were actually Japan, I would've blankated the world with super-anthrax a while ago. Also, I would've hidden stuff under the sea and in islands, and secret agents, all waiting to release anthrax to cause pandemics every decade. But obviously that would be pretty game-ruining, so Archi can't follow everything exactly.

Eh, I wouldn't have a legitimate claim to owning the Kirby. I can live without a country. Or maybe REMAKE JAPAN. Except without the anthrax. Now to figure out how to create a race of super-Japanese without inbreeding. :^_^: Is there a skill known as genetics or is that under general medical stuff?
