Y'know, I really don't like the thought of being an admin, though, I am starting to wonder what it could be like playing as a god to a crazy chaplain. I've played the latter roles a few times, the other side seems like it could be fun.

Were you the chaplain praying to Armok the other day? If so, I was Armok.

Vactor, we need the banning database set up ASAP. I only asked KG to ask you to set up the database so we could ban this guy.

Setting the database up is poorly documented, and lacks any method of debugging other than rebooting the server.  I only get 2 or 3 server reboots a night, if i'm focused on it, and not doing something else when the rounds end.  I could sit down and get it working, but I'd need to keep taking the server down until i get it working.  I've got most of it working anyhow, shouldn't take much longer.

I am pretty sure you can run multiple instances of dream daemon at once, you know? Just run a test server on another port while you futz with the DB and such.

I learned that Hans is pretty robust himself. Dear god, that was a really close fight.

[USEC_OFFICER]

I was watching that fight on the crew monitoring computer. Zackery was one hit away from critical (95 brute damage), and I think you weren't in much better shape either.

[Vactor]

Well it should be working at the next round start.

[My Name is Immaterial]

The ban DB?

I was the Traitor QM. Axl Blyant was my target. I had, last round, offered him some Liberty Caps, and he took them, so I did it again. When he agreed, I parapenned him and took off to disposals. But the frakking AI saw me and blocked it off, so I took Axl to Illicit Access and tried to kill him with the minihoe. We got into a protracted fight, and he eventually escaped, so I summoned a revolver and chased him. But the Security guy saw me and I fired at him, hitting him a few times. He captured me, and I was taken on the shuttle, but right before that, an alien showed up, and I got put into Crit. The doctor saved me and we went to get on the shuttle, but Axl blocked me in one entrance, and parked his cart there, trying to trap me. The Sec-guy ran around and dragged me into the shuttle, then Axl was trying to push me out before it launched, but he failed and we left.

This whole time, I was taunting Axl vigorously.

I learned that Hans is pretty robust himself. Dear god, that was a really close fight.

Thanks. It was VERY close. If you had stayed, or even THROWN the hoe at me, I probably would have gone down.

I liked your stories in the next round, Hans. It added a bit of character to the round that was needed, since the Antagonists (If there were any) didn't seem very intent on doing anything overt.

Y'know, I think it's this kind of thing that I really enjoy about this game 'cos, it might not be much in the way of action packed, but it lets us see what each other's characters are like a lot better.

Ah, yes. The god that I drained all my blood for! That was indeed fun. Though it has left me wondering what other ridiculous gods I could worship, besides Armok and Lifts-Her-Tail.

[miauw62]

You couldcould worship HAMSTONE.

Add this book about smut!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Title: Smut
Author: Wikipedia
Category: NonFiction

Code: (Wikipedia) [Select]

The smuts are multicellular fungi, that are characterized by their large numbers of teliospores. The smuts get their name from a Germanic word for dirt because of their dark, thick-walled and dust-like teliospores. They are mostly Ustilaginomycetes (of the class Teliomycetae, subphylum Basidiomycota) and can cause plant disease. The smuts are grouped with the other basidiomycetes because of their commonalities concerning sexual reproduction.

Smuts are cereal and crop pathogens that most notably affect members of the grass family (Graminaceae). Economically important hosts include maize, barley, wheat, oats, sugarcane, and forage grasses. They eventually hijack the plants' reproductive systems, forming galls which darken and burst, releasing fungal teliospores which infect other plants nearby. Before infection can occur, the smuts need to undergo a successful mating to form dikaryotic hyphae (two haploid cells fuse to form a dikaryon).

Sugarcane smut

Sugarcane smut or Ustilago scitaminea Sydow is caused by the fungus Sporisorium scitamineum; previously known Ustilago scitaminea. The smut 'whip' is a curved black structure which emerges from the leaf whorl, that aids in the spreading of the disease. Sugarcane smut causes significant losses to the economic value of a sugarcane crop. Sugarcane smut has recently been found in the eastern seaboard areas of Australia, one of the world's highest-yielding sugar areas.

For the sugarcane crop to be infected by the disease, large spore concentrations are needed. The fungi uses its smut-whip to ensure that the disease is spread to other plants, which usually occurs over a time period of three months. As the inoculum is spread, the younger sugarcane buds just coming out of the soil will be the most susceptible of all the crops. Because water is necessary for spore germination, irrigation has shown to be a factor in spreading the disease. Therefore special precautions need to be taken when irrigated the areas of the crop to prevent spreading of the smut.

Another way to prevent the disease from occurring in the sugarcane is to use fungicide. This can be done by either pre-plant soaking or post-plant spraying with the specific fungicide. Pre-plant soaking has been proven to give the best results in preventing the disease, but post-plant spraying is a practical option for large sugarcane cultivations.

Corn smut

Corn smut (Ustilago maydis) infects maize and is a delicacy in Mexico, where it was historically enjoyed by the Aztecs. It grows in the ears of the corn crops and converts the kernels into black, powdery fungal tissues. The smut is sold in the markets in Mexico while other parts of the world (including the United States) continue to reject it as an ingredient for food dishes. The corn smut is currently referenced as huitlacoche to the Mexicans, and the Aztecs formerly called it cuitlacoche. Investigators have recently found that the amount of protein in the corn smuts is said to be greater than the corn, oats and clover hay.

Huitlacoche is used for some of the following recipes:

    soups
    stews
    steak sauces
    crepes


I wrote it, then got eaten by the singulo before it was uploaded...

I see the Singularity religion lives on, with its savior swallowing all that is good in the world.

I've had a hard time finding sheet music for violins with just letters. Anyone got a good source? We could certainly do with some violin music in the library.

It's not really that hard to convert any music you want to the SS13 violin, all you need is some basic music savvyness and some time. The letters are notes, the numbers before / are occidentals (which, incidentally, no pun intended, are the biggest pain in the ass to get right) and the numbers after / are for note lengths. Though you probably want to find a nice, secluded place to try and port songs, because otherwise, you might get lynched before you can finish it.

Also, try to have multiple related songs per book. Store them in a txt file and upload them later.

Well, you need like, more GMT+1 (or other european time) Admins if you can only admit live banning, but since the player count is at like, 3 tops when I'm around anyways, its a non-issue.

Going to join in and port some Hot Club-era Stephane Grapelli from sheets I obtained.
