Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Welcome aboard, ArchAIngel. You shall receive your honorary B12SP member gift basket once we procure enough funds to be able to afford the providing of such luxuries.

I feel this has run low on steam, given that impetus was, for a while. running on making stuff up. When we lost that, things slowed. As such we need action. definitive, ACTION.
 
Ideas?

Things have certainly slowed down, but considering how regularly it is still brought up from the forsaken depths of this board, and that it even now continues to gain new members despite the countless times this program's death has been predicted and wished for, I am nearly convinced that it cannot and will not ever truly die; for the passion and ideas contained within this glorious thread are just as immortal as the spirit of Bay12 itself.

Wait, how do railguns shoot nonferrous metals?
Guh. Must read what I type. That should be steel. And who needs a giftbasket? I have a computer! Bay12>giftbasket.

So, lets do quick recap of current materials while were there. I have: $2. Just like last tme. Depressing. in addition, I can, if pressed, get up to 200 dollars on a one time basis or $20 on a monthly basis.

In terms of currency? I have somewhere around 200 American dollars at my disposal right now, a small stash of Canadian coins I still haven't gotten around to counting, and one Iraqi 250 dinar bill.

Err, only money or other stuff included? If other stuff, look up the page.

Well I don't include my other stuff, because It's all in all useless for our plans.

I guess I have a baseball bat, as useful as that is.

If none of my money was going to be used for a lot of other stuff, I could contribute ~$6500.  As it is, everything is marked for some purchase, fixing my car, college, etc, so I have nothing to contribute of monetary value.

I have knowledge of electronics involved in creating radio transmitters.
And receivers. Really, radio equipment in general.

Besides that, not much. I know a couple of places nearby where reasonably useful motor parts could be found, and some miscellaneous stuff, being a car scrapyard and general dump respectively.

Scrap! If we hook a crapload of engines together, and put a few rails and capacitors together, we can build a giant railgun! Shoot a large lump of metal into orbit, and have it drop down where we want. Nuke-like explosions, without the radiation and international stigma! And if we scale it up, we can launch resupply capsules to the mars base!

That would be a good idea. We'd need a darn good ballistics computer and some sort of large power supply...so, either fusion or solar satellites, and Mike.

Well, my computer can run 259 dwarves at 73 FPS with all 3 caverns and HFS breached, so I think we have the ballistics computer. As for power, the car yard mentioned should work, by using all the engines that are there to power a generator. This does assume that I can get there, what state is this scrap yard in?
