Action 21
You consider reading your chemistry book and then sleeping some more, but you're not really tired. Ah well, circadian rythms are obviously some sort of nonsense - proper sleep cycles are for those far less dedicated to SCIENCE!

You will bring your chemistry book along to review, but you're heading to the internet cafe and checking how your game is doing - it's not going to be open long enough for you to do much more. Using what you learn from the praise and even the constructive critiques the game will surely have accrued by now, you will build something even better!

You get a cup of water and start up the computer and load up the page, glancing over your chemistry book as the computer starts up. This chemistry stuff seems rather simple. You should be able to have this down by the morning if you- ah, here we go, time to view our... adoring... fans...


Stop. Okay. Breathe. Good? Calm? HELL NO.

You flail with your arms as you yell some profanities at the screen, knocking your cup of water to the floor as you slam the table in anger. The staff gives you some odd looks, and you turn a withering gaze on them.

"OH!? AND WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU KNOW? All the work I do, and none of you bastards even appreciate! The mastery, the sheer craft, and I get shit like this!" They might have asked you to leave, had you not chosen that moment to storm out.

You march home, going over in your head exactly how you can track down every fucking moron who dared to make such inane comments about your masterpiece. And then, how to build a giant gun that fires bolts of plasma, which you will use to incinerate every last one of them as you hunt them down and show them. You'll show them! You'll prove it to them all! The faceless bastards think they're so much... probably goddamn stupid men too, with their penis fixations, and they, they just don't understand. They can't see.

You're inside your room now, sitting on your bed. You just don't understand why no one can see! Your genius is so obvious, and they don't even put forward enough effort to see it, they just, they just- arrrgggghhhh!

Haha, sweet skillz there.

We're going to need that boyfriend even more now...

Calm down by immersing self in a good thick textbook, maybe napping a little if you get tired

We'll show them... we'll show them all! With wondrously painful weaponized chemicals! And to do that, we need to study!

Hint 2

When in a heightened emotional state, it will be very difficult for you to relax and engage in quiet, peaceful activities, or to sleep. The best approach is to burn off all that excess emotional energy in some sort of project as soon as possible, though the range of projects Rose will be willing to attempt may well depend on which emotional state she is in.

For example, in this state she would have a lot more success building some sort of weapon than studying mold to make medicine.

However, note that there are also inherent risks with heightened emotional states - while they might provide boosts to innovation and incentive, they also often result in recklessness, which can easily be seen to increase the chances of a project's catastrophic failure.

Well then, let us preform... MAD SCIENCE!!! I have two sugesstions:
1. A virus tailored to destroy the computers of all who have rated out game poorly.
2. A robot sentry designed to shoot anything that moves, unless it is wearing clothing of SCIENCE! We will need a camera and some sort of projectile weapon for this.

[Cheddarius]

Consider Plans
Robot Upgrade (removable): The Destroyer
Sledgehammer
2x4 x1
Screws and Nails xSome
Duck Tape x3
High Voltage Power Transformer
Various Wires x3

The Destroyer is an upgrade to any robot. By attaching it and programming in attack behavior, the robot will direct electricity to the transformer, which will turn it into a much higher voltage. After some charging time, the transformer will have built up huge voltage, which it can translate into more torque to bring the sledgehammer smashing down on Rose's enemies.

Investigate price of new sledgehammer

I like the virus idea. Have it eliminate any antivirus and spam filters, then publish their email adress. Or slowly begin wiping their hard drive, damaging the firmware wherever possible. Or prevent all programs from saving data. or randomly throw in a "1" every dozen bits of data handled. Or something. Or randomly do one or more of the above. But a virus would be best.

Why make a destructive virus ourselves when we can just open up a door for a whole mess of others to do our work for us?

This/these.

[Cheddarius]

I think we need to work on our Killbotics. Programming we can level whenever we want, quite easily, but an opportunity to level Killbotics extra is valuable, because it costs parts. It's like... you can either have a free sample, or free groceries. You want the groceries, right? Because you can just get the sample later for free, but not the groceries.

In addition, we already have excellent programming skill; it would be better to level Killbotics some more, because programming is a lot better when you also have Killbotics to supplement it.

I do realize the need for vengeance, though. How about we make The Destroyer, then make the virus? It should utilize available webcams to detect new faces (do we have facial recognition technology? If not, just simple detect-face stuff, like digital cameras have), wait for the guys' parents to come in, and then lock mouse and keyboard control and display fullscreen child pornography with blaring sound.
