Re: Erfworld Cameo
I saw that, and immediately came here to see if there was a thread about it. Hilarous lines for Alex.

Re: Civilization near a black hole
(Technically, Sagittarius A* has between 200 and 400 million stars orbiting it.) Ah, well yes, technically everything in the galaxy is in Galactocentric orbit around Sagittarius A*. I think what the article meant was that 92 stars have been discovered where their parent object - the closest thing t...

Re: Civilization near a black hole
Ah. So, if there isn't too much radiation then civilizations could colonize and expand INTO this region, but they couldn't start out there. It sounds like the stars around a black hole are bigger than the average star size in the galaxy? Why is that?

Civilization near a black hole
So, I've played computer games where multiple races colonize and flight a 'galaxy' where a galaxy is a square map with dozens or hundreds of star systems. Today I was reading about Sagittarius A*, which is the supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy. Apparently it has 92 stars orbiting a...

Re: Fiction
If by running you mean the method of movement humans use to run with legs pushing them forward, then there are some real restrictions. For instance, your creature would be better off to have its knees bend the opposite way. This is because the faster you want to run, the closer your body has to get ...

Re: Outcast Quest
The yeast supercrit is most welcome. We should end the food rationing immediately. Even without any rationing we still have a food surplus, and enough of a reserve that we can go at least a month with crop failure, if that's even possible (I don't know if the benefits from crop diversification kick ...

Re: Outcast Quest
I agree with everything dragoongfa posted except the stewardship. I would do: 6. mine Exp + agricultural complex expansion 7. Mine Exp + yeast 8. Clinic + yeast Now that we've started crop diversification, we've got a major negative food income that we have to rectify fast. Since Agricultural comple...

Re: Outcast Quest
What's our food income now, 500 food units per turn? And we have 540 expenditure if we go to full rations, and so we'll have a monthly negative of 40, with 624 Food in supply. So we have enough extra supply that we could survive if we had a potato famine for one month. I say yes, end rations, but we...

Is it possible to take the same stewardship action twice in a turn?
For instance, could we:

Turn 3: Mine + Mine

If we hadn't selected the extra 10k RU, would we be pretty much doomed to starvation at this point?

[X] Agree that the elections shouldn't happen during the food crunch. 6 turns is the earliest, but it would probably be better to say 7.

Re: Outcast Quest
If you get the tests from the dead around the bridge, and leave the other bodies (that the surviving elves can see) you should be able to prolong them finding out about you bisecting their dead for long enough that it won't be a big deal.
