Next couple of turns I will indeed manage to make a device that will save my life. Or at least waste the rest of my life making things that can save the rest of the crew.

[qwertyuiopas]

Well, I guess the best thing to do would be to try to establish contact with the people inside, and maybe look for another way in.

[Kashyyk]

I'll follow PTTG??'s lead and use spoilers.

I believe we don't have any critical worries any more. I also suggest finding a way of conserving/creating energy and I reckon if we use the random machinary lieing around we might be able to do it.
So a suggestion, together I reckon we could be build one of those cycle machines that people use to exercise. That is one use for it. We could also rig it up to the batteries to create electricity. A second use. This is so we can run the radios and other things in an attempt to contact other survivors.
PTTG?? your suggestions on this idea and any others are welcome.

[PTTG??]

Well, Kashyyk, I agree that we need to start working on energy creation. Let's see if we can make a simpler hand-cranked generator first, though. We should have nearly everything we need for that in any electric motor, so look for a fan or pump.

Now then, if you work on that, we have three other workers. We need to see if we can reach anyone on the suit radios- if not on the surface, perhaps the orbital section is still there and we can contact them, so if he's not helping Louise, I'd have Geoffrey get a suit on and test out the radio. Vernon is, of course, right that we need to get going. If we can put together some simple door-covering, like a strong plastic sheet caulked up against the frame and braced against the floor, we would cut down on the amount of air we loose when we leave. I'll get a suit on and work with Vernon to build this.

Note: are these Pressure suits or Space suits?

PTTG, refer to the inventory in the third post.

Aquizzar, you may want to include a link to it in your sig, or at the bottom of the turn post. Much more convenient than scrolling up to the top of the page and back down to the post.

[Aqizzar]

PTTG: They are space suits.  There are differences obviously, but I'm sure you'll think of how to use them.

Sean: I'll save you the slight carpal tunnel in your middle finger with a like in the post.  If you stop spelling my name with a U.

[Sean Mirrsen]

Uh? Oh, sorry about that. I guess "Aqizzar" is too wrong for my spell-centric memory.

[Grek]

Also going with spoilers, I guess.

"Oh shit, there is someone outside." I volunteer to go out and bring them in. However, before I go I do three things:
1) Ask Shideh to hold some plastic wrap over the "airlock door to airproof it better.
2) Yell "Don't worry, I'm coming out for you!" loud enough that maybe they can hear it.
3) Empty lungs with deep exhalation, like they showed us in training.

Then I go out ask quick as I can find whoever is out there, get them to come with me and get back inside ASAP.

Yeh, a hand crank sounds like a better idea now you mention it. But a point to make though. We have three suits and four people. What are we gonna do 'bout that? I have a suit on me.

You're already wearing a space suit.

Vlad's actions:

First, Vlad will spend about 5 minutes looking about, seeking signs of other crashed pods, where there may be survivors.  If there's a nearby hill from which he can get a good vantage point, he climbs to the top of it.  Once he gets a general idea of the topography of the area, he goes back inside, and talks with Serg and Rosie about their situation.  Even though he's a bit annoyed at Rosie for the moment, he does his best to help her calm down.

I guess I won't be able to go jogging anytime soon, what a shame. I try to contact someone through the radio while silently mourning my lost comrade , be safe spider!... Oh and my dead friend too.

[Gantolandon]

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Well, at least someone else is alive. A quick chit-chat was somewhat reassuring. A bag of Cini-Minis also helped to calm down somewhat. Unfortunately, he was too nauseous to eat more than a fist; even then he almost threw up. Andrzej put the bag next to the console and tried to concentrate on driving the rover away from the debris.

It was a boring activity, but it had to be done. Without a pressure suit, it was the only way to move out with the rover. Even if he wanted to leave it - it was a nice place, protecting him well from the outside. At least for a while.

[deadlycairn]

"Damn, I wonder if anyone else is out there? I'm doomed otherwise. I knew I shoulda brang that radio my parents gave me!"

Simon tries to contact anyone else, but, without a radio, must make do with trying to connect with anyone else with a research computer (here's hoping they're networked!).

((Do i have a radio? I'm pretty sure I don't but I'd rather use one if I have one))

Why isn't anyone reading the Master List?
