Lars sold his MkIII, and the Raduga is inscribed.  Everyone got a new MCP suit, right?  He'd be wearing it.

Okay then, I edited the page to reflect that.
Are your tokens right? Cause right now it shows 0.
Also, got the PEW inscribed with anything? And know how many coldplates  you have for it?

Yeah, he spent everything.

[Toaster]

0 tokens is correct.  Lars sold the MkIII to Maurice for six tokens, then turned around and bought Miya's shard launcher for seven.
I never specifically inscribed the PEW.  No idea; whatever the prototype package came with.

I see we're organizing the teams by who is in what jeep. If I may make a suggestion, instead of "Team A, Team B" why not "Squad A, Squad B" to avoid confusing piecewise? So it would be "Team Snapdragon Squad A" for the first jeep for example.

[Comrade P.]

I had an idea about going full custom on it. Like, Team Snapdragon, Squad Wheat and Squad Rye.

I've completed this stage of the Character Index reorg

You can find the new version here: http://einsteinianroulette.wikia.com/wiki/New_Character_Page

Looking for comments or last minute additions before it's good to copy over. I think it should be fine now.
My current complaint with it is that the re-org makes the status column seem redundant to me, especially for the stasis and dead categories. I can remove it altogether, or we can see if there is something else we'd like in a column.

Pw just wanted us to keep track who are in jeep and who are not. For obvious reasons.

Added a 'vehicle Design' tab to the tinker page, as well as put an actual link to said page. I think the front page need some redesigning to be more accessible/organised.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I can't find the post where Pancaek meets the doc after his godhood vision. If anyone finds it, please add ref link to page of mysteries.

E: Never mind, I found it. Copied into Page of Mysteries.

And the results are in!

Who would make the tastiest Armburgers?
 
Milno (the original)
19
STAN (quantity!)
4
Timmy (exquisitely eldritch)
7

The poll was created at 09:03 on April 8, 2015, and so far 30 people voted.

And as it turns out, the classic taste of Milno's Armburgers wins by a landslide! Sorry STAN, looks like you'll have to stick to singing and dancing.


New poll: how do you decide what to buy? And what kind of writing style do you prefer for armory entries? Vote now!

[AoshimaMichio]

Second poll is missing option "Funny and informative".

[Radio Controlled]

Second poll is missing option "Funny and informative".

Because then everybody just picks that, and we end up with either no new information to what people really prefer the most, or very bloated entries.

[Nikitian]

Since it was apparently missed in Heph OOC thread, I'll ask it here:
Why no "I'm a Tinker Veteran, I don't care." and "Wait, we have a wiki? I'm still using the list on the forum." options for the first poll?

... Those were jokes, no? What with the smiley face and such?

[Nikitian]

Well, the smiley face was more aimed at how half-joking those options are. But, you know, the other half was quite serious.
At least, I could not remember the last time I browsed items or armory wiki pages for the sake of learning their contents - that with extensive memories of tinker tests and long discussions in Hephaestus OOC thread. And I had this feeling that Syv/Sean/maybe you might share that notion.
(That's what one gets for being an ER geek, I guess )


But the wiki search (which I occasionally use) gives the item pages first, so maybe I should pick that option, if any.

[Parisbre56]

I don't have time to do it right now, but may I suggest that someone makes a page for the salvage/distraction mission? Something like Mission_19_Cleanup? Mostly so that we can get a CS for PW.

Oh, and I propose we name the salvage team "Team A(carpous)" and the other "Team B(ait)". Could also do the inverse for "Team A(lready dead)/A(lmost certain death)" and "Team B(arely salvageable)"

Irrelevant, but I think this is the first time in a long time that Steve is putting together a team on his own. I think the first time since the  rebellion. Guess that's what happens when there's no active commanders available. And probably what will happen in the future if extraction goes badly.
