Top-tier (relatively speaking) maths.
In English.

That's it, I'm out.

[wer6]

erhm, so can we get back on the rails with A update...?

[Eotyrannus]

Yes, yes, soon, my mind-slaves.

EVOLUTION ATTEMPTS: Chemosynthesis- 6, Gain shell- 2, Grow larger- 6

The hades amoeboid is a new, larger amoebid. Many frills surrounding its body let it absorb chemicals from the water, which it then converts into food. It has tripled in size from the volcanic amoeba.

The springs haven't changed much.

CHAPTER 2, GENERATION 2:
Hades Amoeboid
An orange-ish blob of jelly that absorbs volcanic bacteria with its underside. It is roughly 10 cms long, and it has many frills containing chemosynthetic bacteria.
REPRODUCTION: It lets out male cells when it smells another amoeba nearby, and tiny eggs grow on the animal's side.
MOVEMENT: Moves at a rate of 2 cms a minute.
EATING: It absorbs algae and chemosynthetic cells from the seafloor, and uses volcanic chemicals to create sugars.
PREDATION: No predators currently exist.
COMPETITION: The ooze only has volcanic amoeba living upon it, and soon, other types will arise.
ENVIRONMENT: A shallow pool of water stretching for many miles. It is about halfway between the gas giant side and the open side of Kaon, and many geysers keep it fresh.

Radioactivity.

Nobody will come near us if we emit constant radiation.

The problem with radiation is that there is only 'hide' or 'get DNA torn to shreds'. And we can't really hide if it's inside of us.

We could not have a genetic code highly vulnerable to deadly radiation.

The problem with that is that DNA tends to be vulnerable to deadly radiation no matter how it is. If you want to protect yourself with radiation, go to the irradiated side of the geysers.

Why do we have to use DNA?

Also, even if we could manage it it would probably result in high levels of stability.
Which, while not bad in and of itself, rather defeats the purpose of this game.

Why do we have to use DNA?

Because we're DNA-based organisms. We could switch a few chemicals around, maybe use arsenic for that, but there's no known radiation-proof genetic code in nature.

Eh, I'm going to blatantly aim for my "non-predatory-scheme" that I proposed for this run's handycap. Wich would go as follows;

Develope even more Frills!
We shall devour all! ...chemicals, that is.

Develope retractable appendages for additional Frills!
Getting chemicals out of the tides that else would be beyond us. Also, even more frills can never be a bad thing, no?

Developing peudopos to move with is also on the plan.
We shall go beyond, and further! At some point. For now to evade possible predators.
