Into the Void (FT/Nation/OOC/Closed)

[The Empire of Pretantia]

Yes, but robots can be knocked out by EMP, plus we still always have self replicating nano-bots should we want to introduce a "plague" to your peoples

Why the Korosians are made of Titanium.

And we could always just send some good old anthrax at a larger scale.

Why would robots have anthrax? Do they sprinkle it on their battery biscuits so that meat puppets don't steal them or something?

On the contrary, it takes pretty much the same amount of effort.

No, not really. Normal EMP lasts so briefly that the current is unable to flow through the human body and begin harming them. If it were sustained it could do some damage, but it's much better at frying tech, I would assume due to better conductivity? Not sure.

Normal EMP has little effect on electronics. You need a powerful pulse to have a lasting effect, and a powerful pulse would be something like a lightning bolt or nuclear explosion. Notice how both of these are something that would kill you.

Since I've received a resounding "no" from a pile of people (some of whom I'm not even sure are a part of this, but whatever), I won't be, but I think it's a good idea to keep this thing from having too many posts to be even remotely possible to follow.

Dera's a Co-Op. As am I. Idaho was thinking of joining but due to the bloated OOC and frantic dick measuring contests, he's been off put.

(said dick measuring contests could be put elsewhere with a discord or something)

I'll TG the OP about it, see what he thinks.

Me and Deramen haven't finished apps yet, otherwise its wise to wait of Tagali/Gambia.

Speaking of that, why does everyone call Tagali Gambia?

His other account is Greater Gambia.

In case you don't know the 'Pile of People' include personally assigned Co-Ops of this RP by the OP himself.

Also, will be keeping an eye on your use of tactical Jumping and multiple FTLs...

@Democratic East-Asia, if the Antivarians are alright with it, feel free to send a delegation over.

This is a concern for me as well (as I was looking to join this), as I have seen this happen numerous times before in RP's like this (and have unfortunately gotten roped into it myself in the past), and I don't intend to go through that again.

What exactly is going on?

His older account is known as the Greater Gambia.

Or maybe, reduce them dickish measuring contests?

Gambia is his main account, Tagali Federation is one he uses for RPs/II. Same Person, different accounts.

Relax, I don't godmod. Bottom line, I only have the ability to generate so much power on those ships, and I don't intend to change that.

Even if I did, at this point it's reached critical mass. It's not fizzling out.

[New Grestin]

You remember when the thread wasn't a dick measuring contest filled with shitposts and memes?

Pepperidge Farm remembers.

To Antivarian space? If so, ok then. Will trade whatever we have for exotic items of note.

Avoidable dick measuring, memes, and borderline race wars... Division of IC and OOC doesn't seem to exist here. Personally I'd say avoid it if you aren't invested already.

[Zjaum]

To confirm, I'm all set? I'm about to make my first post.

The explosion itself kills the meatbags - but I believe that the resulting EMP doesn't generally harm biological life, and in the 30-something-ith century I believe we would be able to replicate that without the whole nuclear explosion bit.

One does not simply avoid memes.

The division of IC and OOC simply filters into said dick measuring contests.

[Anowa]

So no more dick measuring, take it to TG. Don't bloat this any further. If the dick measuring continues, you don't get to complain about the result of said actions.

We would also presumably be able to shield everything that could possibly get caught in an EMP. Machine races aren't dumb.

Seconded. Faraday cages already exist, they'd likely be far better in the 32nd century.

Now, that said, I will be using something from that universe in this universe.

Name: Quejjz'mit
Description of Appearance: Unnaturally pale, varying in height from one to four meters, dark beard facial hair for males,
(Image)
Homeworld: Quejjz'm
Life Span: 96 years, by their planet's rotation (100 by Earth's)
Height: Varying in height from one to four meters.
Weight: Varying in weight from 50 to 500 lbs.
Tech Tier: Tier 3
Description: Quejjz'mit are built to last. They have been both wealthy and poor, wise and foolish, power-hungry and pacifist. They are not active, nor are they strong, but they have a sharp wit, and ambitions nonetheless. They are smart, not wise; determined, not active; trustworthy, not powerful. And so they have continued, through interplanetary wars, through plagues, some colonizers, some aggressors, some still traversing the stars. One trait has united them all: they have endured.
