Well if you already bought those pages maybe we could do like split here and see two different endings. If its not too much trouble of course. I just don't want this to end.

That song may be Weird Al's most brilliant work, perfectly crystallizing ten years of Devo's work into 3 minutes.quote:In an interview on VH1's Behind The Music, Devo's Mark Mothersbaugh stated in reaction to the song that: "I was in shock. It was the most beautiful thing I had ever heard. He sort of re-sculpted that song into something else and... I hate him for it, basically."

Applewhite posted:I'm disappointed, but we'd better get into some hijinks in the next sector. The petty, spiteful action we're taking here has an outsized effect on the ending so don't feel like you're missing out. I won't have time to do the planetside branch as well but given how well diplomacy has worked for us in this game it'd probably just end up the same way (but with a few more dead crew). Update Yesterday's completed page: We can't hit the fleeing ship since it's doing a panic jump. Those are a lot faster (and more dangerous) than regular jumps so there's nothing for us to hit, and screw flying back to Media. We decide to take it out on the homeworld (335): That's the fourth species we've exterminated, I think, and the second planet destroyed. No crapulence increase but a cost of 10 ENERGY. We're starting to run low on juice now so we could go in for refueling like SuGaBA did for us after Haldus, or try our luck in the next system, or do some other thing that I've forgotten. Here's the manifest:

Let's loot the remnants of these idiot space crustaceans, refuel, and hit the road. If time allows I second the idea to leave a message beacon telling the Threshers the planet was polluted and they now owe us two favors.

I wonder what would happen if the orgasmatron were used on the sexless threshers? Is the sexless attribute innate, or are they just deprived?

I guess we're looting that planet, leaving a calling card and blowing this popsicle stand. Update real soon (like an hour away I guess)I Greyhound posted:I wonder what would happen if the orgasmatron were used on the sexless threshers? Is the sexless attribute innate, or are they just deprived? IIRC it has the same effect as on any other species. They're probably not really sexless, it's just they're not sexually dimorphic even by human standards and most of the main races call them "sexless" as a sign of contempt or hatred. If you ever play through as the Disco Alliance the robots just refer to them as "Threshers", presumably because they don't care about how organisms go about shooting their DNA at each other (the Orgasmotron works on them as well, oddly)

Larry Parrish posted:You can't be into disco and not understand Boogie Night. I think the smilie you're looking for is Update Yesterday's page complete: We're going to loot, get some energy and leave a calling card before nicking off (148): And the page where we decide where to go next (173): It's pretty dangerous to harvest energy if you've lost your supercomputer and you've got a bunch of idiots in your crew, but two things we have on our side are hull points and radiation resistance. We might still get a few console explosions or a crippled subsystem so just keep that in mind. Before we move on: How many days do we want to loiter gathering energy? What small item do you want from the homeworld? (Choose from the list given in your copy of the book if you have/remember it) and Where do we jump to and how fast do we go? We are a bit slower now without SuGaBA but we still have the JO Crystal to speed things up if need be. No changes to the Starship Manifest until we figure the above out but FWIW we current have 52 ship's ENERGY - not enough to get us very far in a hurry. E: Sorry, this might help with figuring things out: And here's the useful item we have: We have 8 days to clear out of this bit of space.

How many days and how much energy do we have?

I choose the Coat of Many Colors for our item if available. It's tricky to use effectively, but it can be a real lifesaver.

one day for the morons to scoop, punch it to the quiet system gently caress these annoyances there's prob some kind of piss smelling psionic technology that we could recover https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdaM5Mv-TTo

I also vote for one day to gather energy, and look for either the Psionic Amplifier or 10 Foot Pole. And I'm not sure we can pass up a good commercial broadcast - I vote for continuing on to Kitalpha.

We should go for the crab people's secret weapon - "The Brown Thought" They never got to use it on us but its a psionic message sent directly into the brains of your foes causing them to poo poo themselves.

Are we able to activate the Brown Thought, the Orgasmotron, and the cloacaing device all at once? While pointed at ourselves during our next orgy?

Am i supposed to infer from this that it's basically impossible to get to media while retaining Sugaba in any way? At least that's what 148 and the book structure imply. Continue on

Our ship isn't in that bad of a shape, but holy poo poo are we low on energy. Let's play it save and refuel our energy reserves for two days, then jump out to Kitalpha.

Lets loot CEREBRO, or maybe it was called the psionic amplifier I don't remember. It lets us guess the intentions of an enemy, and even lets us incapacitate an enemy ship officer. However whichever of our bridge crew uses it has to roll for damage since it's not meant to be used by non telepaths.

Looks like Kitalpha, 2 days of refuelling (we'll need it to get there in time with any reserves left) and taking Cerebiro/Psionic amplifier (5 votes) The Claw (3 votes) The Brown Thought (2 votes) Coat of Many Colours (1 vote) Will check back and do the usual thing soonish.
