-youthful optimism-

Did you punch yourself when eating yet?  Surprisingly easy to do...

If you do, time to move on to using forks for eating omelette. And stab yourself in the eye.

Then move onto stunning yourself with a stun bat-

Wait that's only me

[Dorsidwarf]

Erryone get on right nao

No, but it did took me awhile to figure out how to actually eat.
Next two rounds were positively chaotic too. Might even try to do an actual job next time.
Maybe.

Spent a whole round playing the Space Piano. Even managed to make a decent-sounding riff.

Clicked "Clear Cache" in BYOND in the hope that this would make my intermittent lag spikes go away (yeah, I know, but I'm desperate).

The small commune of Hydrokin thanks you for the round.

[jhxmt]

Every round I play, no matter the job, seems to go the same way:

1) Start job.
2) Just about start to get comfortable/efficient at it.
3) Realise that everybody else is elsewhere, panicking about something.
4) Have no idea what the panic is about.
5) Shuttle is called.
6) End up at Escape/dead in vacuum en route.

The key turning point is when you feel ready to be one of the reasons that people are panicking.

Shika and Renie tend to ignore most events unless they directly affect them.  In Renie's case, she's stupid enough to STILL ignore them sometimes.  But B BORG tries to be on the scene.

Vladdy responds by swearing.

And possibly a sexual joke

And then Feren lectures you on the principles and tenets of the Following of Lord Nar-Sie.

[Rock] is the new headcoder.

Can you test what the [Rock] is codin'?

[miauw62]

Nothing changes, basically.
Maybe there'll be a few less PRs vetod by numbers.
I don't even know what he's coding.
Numbers is working on OD code, though.

Went to bed after several rounds with 30(!) players online.
Slept for five hours.
Awake again.
Back on SS13.
Nobody on the server.    Curse you, GMT!

Also, I may have spotted a pattern in my horrendous lag spikes - I suspect they're related to (local, not network) map loading.  After playing a couple of rounds, my lag is almost nil.  First round of the night, it's always terrible.  Running around the server now as a ghost, I'm finding that I'm lagging primarily in areas that I haven't been to (today) yet.  Odd - no idea why local loading would lag like that.

Or there's no real pattern and I'm just reading into it way too much. 

Also, my wonderful engineering Utopia of filling all the plasma tanks with highly pressurised supercooled plasma so that the singularity generates near-infinite power (an idea stolen from an earlier poster, I believe) was cruelly thwarted by, uh, the singularity escaping.  D'oh.
