Good Cause Simulator: pep!rom!Revolution (sunday)

[idolpro]

[ You’re in a sleek room full of all kinds of sci-fi dials and knobs. You feel like you’ve been here a long time with these people around you, and that you have a lot longer to go before this is all over.

You can hear the distant sounds of the station creaking due to shockwaves from the fighting outside. What is going on in this galaxy? Well, it’s not very important to you. What’s important is surviving.

You have a job to do. ]

Re: DISCUSSION

[HE REFUSES TO FEEL GRATEFUL THAT IT DOESN'T HURT TO TALK. But with that said, it's... nice, that it no longer hurts.]

At this point it is almost tempting to use the job ability, no? [Or is it just him?]

Surely we should focus our efforts on Readiness and Prosperity.

Re: DISCUSSION

[time5kip]

Agreed.

I would also use our job ability this time, and save ourselves from war. We should also get rid of The Hands. Can we kill them with our abilities?

Re: DISCUSSION

[tenebraecious]

[still in thought but chiming in]

The Hands can be dealt with, but we do not know who these Others are. Are you willing to take the risk?

Re: DISCUSSION

[time5kip]

According to the information we're given using it will prevent us from being affected by war related events, so. Worth a shot.

Re: DISCUSSION

[tenebraecious]

We do not know if we will suffer any effects from the war, nor do we know what units have been using violence or what would be considered violence . . .

Re: DISCUSSION

[time5kip]

Other Units are playing just like we are, so I don't care who has or hasn't been using violence. It's a consequence of the game.

I understand this isn't how you're used to do things in Pep but Black and I are not willing to die in order to avoid harms to others. So we're using the Poison ability.

Re: DISCUSSION

[untiltheend]

As Mr Valour said. You have had your way once already, no? Is it not fair that you give way now?

Re: DISCUSSION

[untiltheend]

Ahh, surely it is worth attempting.

[Yes let's kill them! This is exciting.]

Re: DISCUSSION

[time5kip]

I suppose we can consider this all messing with peace.

Re: DISCUSSION

[untiltheend]

I doubt our Audience would be sated with too peacefully run a Game, anyway.

Shall we use our job ability both on the Hands, and on the warring Others, then?

EVENT 1

[idolpro]

Hands begin to disappear. Countless cat fairies turn up handless day after day after day, and it seems that every day the Hands grow in strength and number, too...something should maybe be done about this...?

You can hear the groaning of the ancient spirits in the empty halls of the station, and even in the void of space. An entire planet of the tortured handless...

Perhaps the Hands are onto something, here? Maybe you should...join them?

Re: EVENT 1

[tenebraecious]

They are going to develop a sleeping medicine to ♥ forcibly distribute ♥ to the Hands. If successful, they will be booted from the station. Go home, no one likes you guys.

Re: EVENT 1

[idolpro]

The Hands fall asleep, and simply wake up elsewhere! How mysterious.

You are rewarded handsomely for your work! +30 Prosperity! +30 Readiness!

EVENT 2

[idolpro]

The war against The Others rages around you - you're not sure why it started or how, only that one of your species' planets was completely wiped out, with no provocation. You can't help but feel you need to do something about this...but what?

Do you take action, or realize that there's not much you can do to affect things besides your job?

Re: EVENT 2

[tenebraecious]

They use their ability to help with the war problem . . . ?

Re: EVENT 2

[idolpro]

War: successfully avoided.

EVENT 3

[idolpro]

As a result of your lack of maintenance, your station has ended up in a state of disrepair. It should be no surprise that when gravity season begins, the stress to the paneling causes the station to slowly start to come apart.

This could be a deadly disaster if left alone...but what can you do about it?

Re: EVENT 3

[tenebraecious]

Between the generator and being a group of very smart doctors, they can absolutely figure out how to fix up a station. Yes, no problem! The better off patients can help out too.

Re: EVENT 3

[idolpro]

You manage to fix up the station! +15 Readiness!
