Ross decided to leave the system.

ROSS YOU JACKASS.

 

That's for the end of a session, half the people aren't even on the forums yet...

 

Will we get to play more if Dusty overrides?

By the way Nero, if you do indeed decide to stay in Sol, you also need to override the farewell message. It's on a delay, so you should have time to do it.

Yeah.

I have the IRC back up so if people want to pootle about the ship till then.

Yeah, half of my annoyance at that particular announcement is the fact that... oh, I don't know... I'M NOT ON THE FRIEKING SHIP.

 

Seriously... I'm laughing right now but I get the sense that I'll be pissed soon enough.

Yeaaahhh... That could be a problem.

 

I'm sure it can be worked out though.

Seriously your decision is just looking worse XD. I still think it's a bad choice to alienate Earth.

You'd end up "alienating" Earth in more ways than one, considering how much extraterrestrial inquiry an overrated and flamboyant paddleboat like ours would attract.

Eh. I just want to go exploring and adventuring without being chained down by Earth beurocracy and the constant threat of Anthrax apocalypse by Japan.

 

We could have kicked off a world war, so be glad we didn't. And the ship may have been confiscated.

Ross you dumb[bleep].

Situation was pretty grim. The UN was asking to investigate the ship, and if they did, America would have declared war on Japan, leading to Anthrax apocalypse.

 

So we ran. Whether or not that was a good decision or not will be discovered soon enough, but I have no regrets in the actions I took, and believe that while it may not be the best course of action for Earth, it is the safest course of action for the ship and her crew.

What was in the ship?...

Communication logs indicating that Japan is stockpiling biological weapons and has plans to take action against America.

... You are a [wagon].. You could have wiped the logs..

Leading to such questions as "Why are the logs wiped" and being stuck on Earth while our ship was confiscated.

 

Being stuck on Earth also means getting caught in an Anthrax attack.

I was on the ship at the time and I completely agreed with Ross' actions.

Says the person who just gassed out the American ship.

After a lot of work on my suit in order to fly it down to Earth the repulsors proved unsatisfactory in slowing down the speed achieved by dropping from orbit in a simulator... however it can now take extreme heat and cold as well as (hopefully) fly.

Nah I agree with Ross' decision.

But I was about to make a presentation so I could get Swiss fundings for further development of my suit.

 

Anyone want to be James Rhodes?

Please note, with the alienation of Earth, we wont get any income until we find a friendly alien civilisation.

Maybe the goa'uld empire? *Crosses fingers.* We'll be fine then as long as we don't deny their divinity.

We found Paul in Neptune, and we're heading to the next star over by the next session.

 

We also found a couple of new alloys. One which is more or less a superior version of titanium.
