"Thing's moving eastwards. Looks like we can call of this attack for now, since it won't threaten the base from there." I really wanted to attack it before it had changed. There doesn't seem to be much to gain by sampling it now... "I'll keep following it and reporting back."

Go the long way around the electrical fields so that I can follow the thing without entering the electrical fields. Begin standard rock throwing  procedure once I enter unknown territory.

((I don't need any instructions. I gave that action. And yes I do have my reasons for that.))

"Forget something guys? Or did Mesk fuck up?"

((You PM'ed it to Piecewise? Could we see the origial action then, for the sake of completeness?

To be below: Ok, I missed that. But did he catch it? Kind of hard to catch a bullet or a very precise shot on a far-away shuttle from a camera, if you get what I mean. Would be useful to have some Word of God on this.

Once again: Okay, missed the helmet-cams too. You're totally right on this.))

Not online every Friday evening till Saturday night. If I am listed as online, I am still not online, as my computer has an annoying habit of waking up to the tiniest distraction and then going off to sleep again.

((Also, Tavik, I don't think Jack knows anything happened yet, and we certainly don't know it was a shot.))
((He was watching the cameras. He knows.

To above to below: The suits have helmetcams. The helmetcams are linked to the CCR. I bet from the cameras it would have looked like he shot the shuttle. And the others don't know that the shuttle is not heavily damaged. So they may think that his mind has been taken over by aliens or something.))

Continue wheeling around the base and going WHEEE and being totally oblivious to what is going on.

Bishop freezes when he hears Jack's bellow over the radio.

"Someone wrecked the shuttle?"

The tools he was picking up drop to the floor from his now shaking hands, a vein pulses over one eye visibly and he takes a deep breath.

"WHO THE FUCK DID THAT?! I HAVE TO FIX THAT SHIT NOW!"

wander around the base wondering why i seem to be the most sane one here.

Clearly running multiple missions at the same time is a terrible idea.  The epic battle to see which team can cock it up worse has escalated again.

And Larry kinda gets blueballed in all this; just left with a raging bone spear and no where to put it.

Jack, who shot the shuttle, and where are they.

Upon receipt of information regarding the shooter's whereabouts (surely such would be told from the helmetcam or just by looking around myself), rocket up to the offender and restrain them. Gently. And prevent any... overzealous attacks on them, though not to the point of taking fire doing so. If he doesn't resist, bring him back to the rest of the group. Examine the damage on the shuttle to see if it's repairable.

((PW: So which would be the accurate measurement? Internal consistency with the information you gave during the autopsy (references to lead and tungsten with regards to density) leads me to believe that it would be 0.106lbs/in3, with the original being the corrected 19g/cm3.

This also makes it much, much more viable than your second statement, as with this density, you could have 7 times more material for approximately the same weight that was be given by your second statement, which happens to be 15.98 times denser than osmium, which is the densest naturally occurring element.))

Mesk climbs out of the cockpit after taking a moment to collect himself and surveys the damage to the shuttle.
"Shit, that was close... a bit more my way and I woulda caught a bullet."
He quickly realizes the shooter could still be around and dives for cover.
Try to determine damage to the shuttle from underneath it.

'what the hell? Mesk, did you forgot to refuel or something?'

But then, after hearing the various screams for blood from base:

Wait, did he shoot us? Frak, it might be the planetoid screwing with his mind, it happened before.

Everybody, try to subdue him.
And Jack, no shooting people wantonly. Not before we know what's going on here.


Subdue the shooter. Use rockets to get there fast. Take away his weapons, but try not to hurt him. If subdued, prevent teammates from physically assaulting him.

'Mesk, prepare a tranq. We'll need one soon.'

To Flint: 'Our shuttle got busted. We don't know why, but it seems one of our own shot it. We won't be able to come to you now, so just keep tracking it for now, ok?

"Huh?  Oh, ok boss."
Once I've finished a damage assessment and the shooter's been subdued, head to the medbay and prep two syringes of tranquilizers.
