Shut your stupid face.

In reply to Nightmare (msg # 969):

Hint: It does not.

In reply to Nightmare (msg # 969):

why is private text orange?  I can't tell what you're saying and what you're whispering.

In reply to Billy Laser Fist (msg # 971):

That's just the default color. You CAN change the color manually if you want to, however.

In reply to The Watcher (msg # 972):

[Private to The Watcher: "<purple>You'd do it like this, I guess</purple>"]

In reply to Muse (msg # 973):

You can also use the "Secret to" instead of the "Private to" if you really hate the orange text. They are exactly the same except that it's much less obvious to the player that what you wrote to them is private information (because it doesn't use orange text). This has limited uses; I almost always just use "private" instead.

In reply to The Watcher (msg # 974):

yes well unless nick goes through the trouble of recoloring his text every time I'm still gonna be annoyed by it.

In reply to Billy Laser Fist (msg # 975):

Holy shit this cafeteria scene is intense.

In reply to Muse (msg # 976):

I'm glad you've found a nameless npc who knows your secret handshake.

In reply to Billy Laser Fist (msg # 977):

We've been working on it in Private texts every time I mentioned Muse in a food situation.

In reply to Muse (msg # 978):

So does Xander type Sophia or Aaron...

Because if the GM keeps telling me my accusations are baseless then I'm doubling down.

In reply to Nightmare (msg # 979):

We both type Sophia depending on the situation. The current stream is from me, heavily informed by conversations with Xander.

Wow. Fit Level: Elevated.

In reply to Muse (msg # 981):

The flight back will take a while -- weeks. This is downtime, so if you'd like to spend karma on anything you could actually learn, build, or upgrade on the shuttle, you may do so. If you'd rather wait 'til you're back at the Factory (hoping for a sweet, sweet circumstance bonus/discount), that's cool too.

I won't advance to the landing point until I've heard from everyone, and please feel free to banter aboard the shuttle if desired :)

In reply to The Watcher (msg # 982):

We got any Ceres karma coming?

In reply to Muse (msg # 983):

Yep, soon as the chapter ends! Which is post-shuttle ride. So that might be another factor in your decision!

In reply to The Watcher (msg # 984):

Muse holds a giant ayahuasca ceremony in which each character explores their deepest fears and achieves self-actualization -- forever unencumbered by any existential pain. They all learn to appreciate each moment of each day as it arrives. No sooner, no later.

In reply to Muse (msg # 985):

Hm it appears Kayla no longer Owes You Big.

In reply to Muse (msg # 986):

Is this meeting alltogether or individual?

In reply to Nightmare (msg # 987):

I assumed a group meeting, given what precipitated it

In reply to Billy Laser Fist (msg # 988):

You'll know when you step into the room!

But yes, by all accounts I expect this to be a group powwow.

In reply to The Watcher (msg # 989):

I'm so tempted to do a Dr. Evil life story

My childhood was typical... summers in Rangoon... louge lessons.  In the spring we'd make meat puppets. 

In reply to Nightmare (msg # 990):

Whoaaa looks like Xander is the Big Damn Hero now

In reply to Nightmare (msg # 990):

Hey, don't let ME hold you back...

In reply to The Watcher (msg # 992):

I actually think the phrase "meat puppet" is as good a time as any to lock this thread and begin a new one. See you on the other side!
