Based on the fact that the character's name is Gus, I would think so.
Not for long if he gets a 1.
damn you beat me to it.

Gus identifies as male. And occasionally, as a tractor. No bullet in the pants is gonna change that.

His correct pronouns are "Combine harvester", "Combine harvester", and "Combine harvester".




Unrelated note: would a game where only one person plays but that person switches off every week/certain number of actions be ok? I wanna do a one person game but suggestion stuff is often a muddled mess.

That seems like it'd be cool.

Could be fun, but you'll need to be strict with the windows for the active person to post an action if you want it to move faster than a crawl.

It'd be interesting to watch. Kind of like those DF games where one person is the overseer for one in game year.

Do the whole game through PMs, Drop each new player in with just a description on the current environment and nothing else, encourage people to screw over the next person.

Wonder what an Eisenstein Roulette success fort would be like...hmmm Here's the minimum equipment, either a copper sword or a wood cross bow and wooden bolts and some shitty bronze armor covered in the blood of the fallen. if you survive your first encounter you may just get some more equipment

You could go meta with the SG nonsense.  Have one person give orders, and let everyone else impeach that person at intervals.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
So what does this mean? Just that player market purchases are automatic? Am I going to get horribly surprised?

Apparently, yes, everything inter-player and not requiring NPC interaction is assumed automatic. And any and all transactions are anyway overseen by wiki sentinels. WHO WATCHES THE WATCHMEN?..

From Piecewise's tone and that rifle's bayonet description, I'd guess that it may try to pull Xan on you (try to assimilate your flesh and proceed to become a proper monster-NPC fleshhorror) if you are not careful, or roll badly. Thus good luck.

ERm.. oh. Do I not wiki my own aster ex purchase from the armoury then? And while we're on the subject: aster ex, nuke or- damn, no 2-token nyartifacts. Wonder if the union should invest in one...

Grenades. They come in packs of three per token, are compatible with Brisant (and you have the Con for it, if I found your charsheet correctly) if you purchase it later, and are pretty nasty.

Thanks, who needs stupid explosives? This gives me one lovely token to blow as well, but I'll post my action now. It was so boring just buying a nyartifact and a suit on my first run.

If the MFM comes with a 3-token brain, couldn't you sell back the 3-token brain and then separately sell back the manipulator to make a profit?  And then repeat?
