All signs

"Avalanche two, anyone got any ranged weapons spare they've looted? I need a gun or rocket aluncher or something to kill some people.

Hey NJW, does this mean Christopher is going to come kill Pneuma and Kate (and I guess everyone on the shuttle)?  Your answer won't change my actions IC, but it would be comforting to know one way or the other.

It means that I have no main weapons I can use safely, or so I think IC. I don't really want to teamkill a lot or shoot down the shuttle. Christopher'd like to murder Kate, but she has an overpowered gauss rifle and minmaxed skills, so I'm not about to try and shoot her one-on-one much, given the uselessness of 10 token armour against 6 token rifles.

Edit: 10 token rifles. Did Kate get this by the team fund? They literally doubled her tokens before any missions? I would have had to invest and embezzle the whole union fund to beat that.

Ah, that's good to hear.  I was a little worried about retribution for taking Kate out of there.

It was a trade for literally everything except her clothes.

Just FYI, that ten-token "gun" is definitely weaker than any five token gun, and probably weaker than any four token one too.  Actual ten-token guns are battlesuit killing tier.  Also, the Mk.III is not armor.  Ten token armor would be full milnoplate, which is resistant to the Specktr, notably weakens the Testament, and fails to the Blaster Rifle.

All things considered,in a match between the Mk.III + twitchblade vs. that ten token abomination, the Mk.III has better odds--especially if the user remembers to turn on EMM.  Assuming equal skill, of course.

So whats the poll look like now? We'll give it till sunday to finish.

ey peedubs, I sifted through the poll thread for ya.
It thank you for that but I have no earthy idea what that grid should be describing to me.
The first column is the vote of everyone's top choice. The lowest scoring choice is eliminated, and the votes are recalculated with the second choice of people who lost their first choice. That is the next column. Third is likewise recalculated with lowest voted choice eliminated, and so on until one clear winner emerges.

Looks like ORO is our winner by a fair margin. More than I was expecting.


I wonder if we should poll the outside world since we're either gonna need to get this sub forum changed to "Piecewise's Playhouse" or we might not be able to continue here.

Don't worry, you can just use your overwhelming majority of loyal ER players to take over Toady's forum.

Well, if nothing else all the players here saying they want this subforum to remain in use for the future games might be good enough. I know the fear with giving me my own dedicated subforum was because of popular dislike of such things in the modding forums.  But a bunch of people saying they want it is a pretty persuasive.

I voted ERORO in the wiki poll and just ORO in the thread, after receiving more info.

Same. I want ER's lore expanded upon, but not at the expense of the world pf Oro being actively hostile



Also, I think I am just going to finish off the current wait list for sprites, and then start up again once the new game hits

That was also my line of reasoning.
