You can change your vote, I believe.

[Ehndras]

Nope

[SirAaronIII]

Huh, it should be under there on one of the blue tabs. Unless I'm thinking of viewing results before voting.

Turn 3

Sozzles this took a while to do, I'd done it all last night except bay12 crashed for about 20 minutes and I went to bed as it was 4 in the morning, anyway it's now 2:40PM and I only woke up half an hour ago... ah shucks, only woke 7 and a half hours later than normal

You give up chasing the town and instead head north to the trade center, a group of you go out to investigate:

Spoiler: Trade Center (click to show/hide)

You hear that two days north of here there is an abandoned town which ran out of fuel and is being salvaged now, it might be worth investigating
You also find an oil press where for the sum of 1 coin you can covert a single block of plant into oil, you can do this 3 times per day
You find a mechanic with a small forge who is accepting commissions, he says the big town has a larger forge but they charge more
You find prices for buying and selling stuff

Scarcium=120 coins
Metal=20 coins
Plant=5 coins
Fuel=7 coins
Harpoon=8 coins

Metal=25 coins
Plant=8 coins
Fuel=11 coins
Pistol=12 coins
Rifle=15 coins

Sinpwn expands the farm
Akylon does maintenance work
Areyoua lands and then restocks/refuels the Jenny Haniver
Adwarf does an investigation of habitat hope:

Spoiler: Investigation Results (click to show/hide)

It seems to have a cargo capable of holding 18 resources under ideal circumstances, though they could always be stocked inside the aircraft or on the roof. The fuel tank can hold 10 fuel and uses 1 per day, the Aircraft can hold 1 fuel and uses 0.5 fuel per day

There is no forge, the harpoons seem to have been hand-made with power tools as they consist of a tube with a spiked pole held in place by a trigger and launched by a spring, the end of the pole is attached to the gun by a tied cable

Most the walls are quite thick and strong, although the wheel chassis is very weak; as is the large door hinge
The top of the habitat is also weak at both the fuel hatch and the ladder to get indoors, the farm and aircraft are fully exposed to incoming fire

The farm produces 7 food per day
You have the Jenny Haniver

5 Fuel

I'll take the aircraft to scout the abandoned town, and when I get there load whatever I can into the aircraft and go back. Once we have ore scarcium and metal, we should make some sort of megaprojectish thing, namely, giant blimps to turn our habitat into an airship.  I'd be pretty far in the future, but we should attempt to do that at some point.

[Aklyon]

8 people, with 7 food made per day, with the ship taking two food, we could sell one food and make 1 other into oil and then sell that, which would give us 4 coins.

Or, if we wait for bunnybob before trading, we could make three oil, sell the three, then by the time he gets back make three more from the new day's extra food and get more coins to buy things with. (5 from first plant, -1 from the first oil (4 coins), +7 from selling it (11 coins), -3 from second three oil (8 coins), +23, 31 coins total)
We could give up our one scarcium and buy pretty much anything we'd need (except fuel, which isn't in the buying list), but its our only rare thing.

[UltraValican]

We should use the last of the metal to expand the farms more to meet our food needs.

[Aklyon]

Indeed we should. Can't eventually make us a town-mounted ballista or an airship if we starve to death.

[ashton1993]

then get a rifle and the oil press

Oh, the oil press isn't actually for sale, somebody's just charging you to use it, though the blacksmith could probably make you one for about 100 coins

(would the oil be worth more to sell than the plants by themselves?)

Good point, I'm going to make oil worth 7 coins and you can only make 3 per day at the oil press, that works out more realistically and fair

...Or we could wait for BunnyBob to come back and bring stuff we could use to trade.

I'll take the aircraft to scout the abandoned town, and when I get there load whatever I can into the aircraft and go back.

Bear in mind the journey will take 2 days, use 2 food and 1 fuel and bring back 1 metal when you think it all through

[sayaks]

I will search the nearby area for anything i can scavenge. I'll bring a harpoon for safety.

[UltraValican]

Expand Farms

[Aklyon]

i edited my post about buying things to include an option for if we wait for bunnybob to return.
Edited again to account for the trip's food cost.

[areyoua]

Are we just assuming that food grows after we eat it? In other words, if we have 1 food, then do 7 people starve because we only have one, or do no people starve because 7 food will be grown?

[adwarf]

Assist in Expanding the Farms. Use the Metal to help us.

Took a while to figure out what you meant ok in a situation where you grow 3 food per day, have 1 in your cargo and 5 people then just one will die, when a pixel dies it will return to it's spawner and after 5 days a player can claim it, if they all die you all rise from stasis again (probably the same habitat but nerfed with maybe one less player) or the game ends. Hope that helps
