I have come to discourse on the profound inequities of the American political system.

I can't do my job because it got sucked into a blackhole. :allears:

I was a security officer (not the one dying in QM) this round. What happened is an admin spawned a singularity bomb in Genetics, and every assistant and scientist came to try activate it. I tried to confiscate it, yelling at people to step away from the bomb, but someone managed to set it off in the medbay hallway. Captain and some security officers got sucked in. Me and Pinata, I think, went on to die to a sleepypen of initrobeedril. The killer then penned someone else, who was also a traitor with a sleepypen. They both died. Somehow through all this, Genetics survived completely unscathed.

Seeing what went on in QM, this really was a round of criminal incompetence. A good round.

That's a job on a buncha non goon servers.

Indeed it is!
And they don't even do metroids anymore, it's changed to breeding chokobos 'slimes' in order to get the right breed 'color'.
A shame it isn't in the Goon servers, though, as I'd love to see what the more... 'Creative' players did with it, especially stuff like chemicals that can turn you into a slime (or a rarer one that turns you into a slime-person), and various ways to make slimes more or less hostile (and with even small amounts of lag, a group of two or more slimes is practically invincible to any but the most prepared anti-slime combatants)

Please send them a very large crate marked "SCIENCE. PROBABLY DANGEROUS. BUT VERY SCIENTIFIC. YES."
Real talk though the slimes are probably my favorite thing that they have that we don't. It's like botany but interesting!

It's also a good reminder that Razage is really bad at paying attention to the chat. I'd have gotten the hell out of dodge at the mention of people loving with a singularity bomb thirty feet to my left.

That's the fun of building tension, it's like when a movie foreshadows or straight up shows you an ambush or bomb hidden somewhere that the protagonists have no idea about.

I wonder if they actually cared about Robotics getting swallowed or if they feigned worry that the bomb was too far to the right.

They set off a black hole bomb in the middle of the station, I doubt they were earnestly concerned about collateral damage.

The people that tend to find bombs of any sort usually don't give a poo poo (myself included). This same phenomenon is usually why it's fun to chuck artifacts in the halls. People will put their grubby hands all over them and drat the consequences.

There's a video on the old station by PlumpHelmet where it's an alien round and near the end he notices that one of the botanists had barricaded himself in a room and been growing weed the entire round while the rest of the station fought and died against the aliens.

Chemistry episodes are hard to do because I don't have a second monitor to look up recipes with so I have to use my tablet or something to have access to my list. I'll see what I can rig up, maybe I just need to copy a few onto some paper and use that.

Valiantly struggling away from a black hole was really fun to watch. I guess the problem is that a lot of the time when you kiss the edge of death you just die, even though a survivor story is great to follow.

But there's always something to be said for a good death.

Such as today, when a traitorous scientist decided to burn the HoP to death in toxins, by stunning him, taking his card and locking him into the gas storage room. Our intrepid scientist then opened the valve on a canister containing still-burning bombmix, hoping to make it out of the room before it got set ablaze.

Unfortunately for him, the heat from the gas ignited a nearby fuel canister, detonating it and sending both the HoP and traitor to the ground, the searing hot bombgas rapidly overtaking them. With a loud alarm the firelocks triggered and swiftly sealed both scientist and HoP into the flaming toxins, and a struggle erupted between the two burning men. First for a fire extinguisher, then for a crowbar. The struggling quickly met an end, however, as both men succumbed to their injuries.

Poor Toxins.

So I've been trying to record episodes but it seems there's something weird going on where the graphic side of the client stops updating for some reason, it just freezes and if I reconnect it's a black screen. I've not had a lot of time to trouble shoot it but when I get it figured out I'll drop some updates.
