1. E Buck Rogers 2. L: Doctor 3. Bionics: 5: Enhanced Cognition. 10: Dermal Armor 12: Electronic Communications Suite 4. What did you do before the war? P: I was a scientist/engineer. Specifically, we were a genetic engineer! gently caress robotic transhuminism, we saw how that worked out. Biological transhumanism is where its at! Lets make better people! This should come in handy when colonizing a new planet, no matter what.

Voting no to waking the doctor and yes to waking a security person. The wardens seem fine, but it doesn't hurt to be careful.

Medical, officers, security. We really ought to wake medical up first in case someone has a bad reaction coming out if cryo, like seizures or clots or hemmoraging or something.

I was just kidding about the giving up life for the CYOA, although this is some of my favourite sci-fi I've read in a long time. The pioneer/exploratory feel combined with actual hard science is great, it's prompted me to look up further info on astronomy a bunch of times now. Thank you for putting the work into it. F then B.. We should have medical awake just in case of anyone experiencing complications coming out of cryo,and then our first officer to help with anything unexpected that might come up. Also the head of medical might be able to use the information we've gathered about cryo to come up with mitigation strategies to reduce cryo related casualties. I'm assuming that with that many colonists, it was expected some might have trouble waking up in full health, medical might be able to better prepare for that now.

dont be mean to me posted:"I was thinking decay products, actually." Pause for thought. [OP would know better than me what kinetic tics Tabitha has for that.] "What's the crisis analysis for only having three of you on watch, instead of four?" +1 to burying him under the first tree planted or some other form of hero's funeral.. It'll show the colonists that we value their service and sacrifice.

I vote this so hard.. There's gotta be some reason we can come up with. The very inner planet is metallic, uh, maybe we can break it up into pieces that are more easily harvestable in the future?

Midgaard. BC H I like the idea behind Neifelheim, but the word itself sounds like a brand of Danish canned ham or something.

Mr. Nemo posted:I don't get why the science officer is throwing a shitfit over like 1% extra working population. It's not like there's already a plan saying how we should start colonizing the planet. We can take it as slowly as we want. It may even not be necessary to wake up large swathes of the colonists before some basic structures are set up. That might be worth investigating. Maybe she knows someone in the affected colonists?

changing my vote from Midgaard to Omaissen. What better name for a planet run by goons than naming it after a guy who died from sitting in a chair for too long.

This probably won't be a huge issue; after all, how often do we use the term "Earthling" in real life? We're more likely to just use the term "everyone" or "everyone in the world" or the like.

Changing my vote from Omaissen to Hoo Boy. We'd just be collectively known as Boys. Or maybe Hoobs.

"Hoo" is another word for "hurrah" , an expression of joy. One of the meanings of "boy" is "servant" . Hooboy shall be hoobmanity's joyful servant. See, totally planned and not weird at all.

We need to drop the left over cryopods from orbit like bombs and shape the landscape to our liking. Most metal terraforming ever.

Maybe not dead stars, but our space elevator is going to make mining other solar bodies a lot easier. I'm excited to see a space pirate industry rise up where they fight over seams of titanium they find in asteroids.

A few years back in Calgary the temperature dropped below -40C with wind chill and I didn't have a car, I normally walked about 30 minutes through downtown to work. It was annoying, but with a few layers and a balaclava it wasn't too bad. The worst part was that my lungs would end up aching from breathing the cold air, even though I was breathing it through a scarf. I wouldn't want to go out in it unprepared though, I imagine you'd die pretty quickly.
