I feel he stepped in at the right time when the leader you had all chosen decided to just sit and watch things happen. Much rather have someone that is going to get the stuff done. Maybe he will listen to me more than the former leader... |
Quote:
You are on my list (and it's just my thoughts... let's be clear) because I asked you questions about your past which you never answered. I even repeated and quoted a few pages back and still nothing. I don't care necessarily that you are not open about your past but until you are you're on MY list. Tell me what you did on earth and we'll see where things go from there. Until then just ignore my list/thoughts if you want. Or offer your own. |

It's all about DG unless you want to know background info. Then it's not. DG: Do you recognize any individuals within the colony from your past life? |

I had got a PM but no place specified man! Part of the night deadline operation! :popcorn: |

Plus I've given up on being the leader of the group since I don't care to have that responsibility. |
Quote:
No I don't. I wish I did maybe I would have some allies then. |
Quote:
Unfortunately my bio did not include any specifics on exact studies. I wish I knew more... I know I have the highest scientific skill amongst the colonists though. Which I have said many times already. |
Hey Chief, mind turning off the No Vacancy sign over at the medical center. I may have a date this evening.
Now where can I find some flowers on this barren planet? |

I didnīt steal the manifest! Donīt put me in trouble man! |
Quote:
Mine didn't include it either. It just said I was a highly liked leader of a group of successful people. I assume I have the highest social skills due to certain events and information. |
Vote: Gather supplies
|
vote Gather supplies
Just in case I didn't already do this, even though I'm pretty sure I did. |
Quote:
You don't. |
Quote:
I think that first gather the supplies to build the weapons and then go straight ahead to explore the safest place! :popcorn: |
Quote:
Which is something you keep saying... But I can assure you I do... |
Quote:
Thanks... Appreciate the heads up. |
It looks like gather supplies is going to win by a landslide.
Does anyone have any ideas about our direction after that? Now that we have defense in place, do we get offense and then explore the other areas, working our way from safest towards most dangerous? |

I feel a Zoolander / Hansel battle coming up here. |
Quote:
Thank you Doctor, I will keep him in mind. |
Quote:
You definitely don't as of yesterday evening I'm betting. |
Quote:
some "bulging brain" :D |
Quote:
I'm glad to do so, but why? Has GoldenEagle done or said anything to you about why he really wanted to be on your team? GoldenEagle feel free to chime in here. |
Quote:
That's the way I feel like it should go. As I said earlier, we shouldn't be leaving our colony/compound until we have the proper means to defend ourselves. Going over the ridge with no weaponry in hand, with no idea of what is waiting for us there would be foolhardy at best. |

I don't know anything about Grover. It sounds like he knows that I am a better engineer than him and he doesn't like it. I told you that ISS stuff don't fly out here. Perhaps we should look at changing the primary engineer? |
Quote:
My issue with GoldenEagle rose on the first day when he claimed to be superior in Engineering, but wanted to be named the lead scientist. That was an immediate red flag for me. Jackal purports to be an engineering professor for MIT. My guess is that his design and knowledge outpace GoldenEagle. |
Quote:
I didn't want to be the lead scientist, I wanted to be the lead engineer. Why would you want to make this change now as opposed to when I was first put on the engineering team? |
Quote:
Thank you for the honesty Shoveler, much appreciated. I likely will have need of your skills tonight. I'm not a big fan IC of how you do your interrogations, but we don't have any choice but to use them I think. Do you know if you can do more than one interrogation on a colonist in order to get more information? Let me know if you aren't going to be around tonight? |
Quote:
Thanks Suicane-have to ask though-is one of your victory conditions also to be leader? |
Quote:
Because Font made the original appointment, I was only to suggest who I wanted on the team. Now we have a new leader and am making my request to him. Simple as that. |
Quote:
Thanks I guess? Though I have my doubts given your desire to be leader-its likely a victory condition for you I'm guessing? |
We don't have a new leader, yet. It seems like you are making a play here at something. What do you know that we don't?
|
Quote:
No. I just realize I'm not going to lead the group since others have persuaded the group that they are a better fit. I'll just continue to assist and point the right direction as I have since day 0. |
Quote:
I hope so-I wasn't told you were, so you will have to ask EF. |
Quote:
Who are you talking to? |
Quote:
Sorry, I was talking to Groover. |
No research options for today. We are basically mercenaries for a day. At least.
|
Quote:
All I know is that I want the engineering team that I asked for. I'm making no play. Also, my apologies are saying you wanted to lead the science team, you were merely positioning engineering through science. So that's my mistake. But at the same time, I don't feel a computer programmer was right for designing the things on Mars that will help us survive. We still don't know what type of programmer you were. If this is the prison-type colony that has been speculated on earlier, it's likely you were a hacker of sorts. That's not the kind of programmer I want. |
Quote:
I believe we are failing at the bolded request. |
Thomkal, nothing for me to really add so far today, sorry.

If you haven't noticed I am always around. I stay at home with my two year old son so I check in quite often. |

Thank you, most would appear on my list as well. That brings up another issue I'd like to address-how about people start revealing their "dark secrets". Its pretty clear by now that we all have one, so why not reveal them before CF creates enough fear around them that we can't trust anybody. Here is mine: i was a General for the Army in the last war-one of if not the only leader. After it was over (don't know if we won, lost, or still fighting). All I know is that some people began to question my methods, what I allowed to happen in certain cases (don't know more about this). I stood my ground and still think it was the right thing to do, and would do it again in a similar situation. A big scandal broke out over this and most likely led to my retirement, either by pressure or choice. |
Quote:
If I am fortunate enough to win the election, martial law will end quickly. |
I don't have a big, dark secret. I spent two years on the ISS to get away from humanity and be alone for awhile.
|
I leave for 22 hours or so and this place goes to martial law?
|
:popcorn:
|
Quote:
That is the path I would like to follow-but who knows what will happen next on this crazy planet? |
Quote:
OK |
Quote:
Yeah we probably are, but font and I should be able to discuss it at least |
Quote:
If this was addressed to me GE, I already made my "play" here by ordering martial law so I could get my bonus for my victory condition. I have nothing more to gain from being the leader. |
I am most likely already a target, so revealing my terrible past is not going to have much of a negative consequence for me.
My primary occupation was in construction. However, I moonlighted as a hitman for the mafia. Justice is in the eye of the beholder, and as long as the pay was good I had no problem taking out their garbage. Eventually my relationship with the mafia turned sour and I ended up providing evidence against them to the authorities. I had to choose between coming on this adventure or going into witness protection. Becoming a colonist on Mars appeared as if it would keep me from checking my six every minute of the day, or so I thought. |
