Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
Welcome aboard! Actually, you already found one back in Episode 1. Well, Juliette found it, but you helped analyze images of it. Right now you might have more important things to do.
I've sent you your secrets, so once you've caught up on your IC threads, you may post when ready in Last Dance, your current thread. You may read Introduction in Episode 1, and then your first IC thread is Pluto Rocks. At the end of each thread is a hyperlink directing you to the next one.

Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
Mr Handy can you NPC Elizabeth through to Sunday please? I've indicated what she will do if need be in our thread. I hope it won't be needed though! I'm going through another round of chemo treatment (delivered today, Thursday) on top of an existing infection, so a bit double floored. Thanks.
Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
Sure thing! I hope you feel better.

Thanks all. It always hits me for a few days quite hard, but I'm just about functional again now, so back posting

Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
Out of curiosity, would the lead-slingers being used by some of the personal be as effective in Pluto's atmosphere? I mean, it's combustion which causes it to force the bullet out, but would the lack of oxygen have any effect on it, adverse or otherwise? Not saying they should or shouldn't be, just pondering.

Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
That's a good point. No combustion without oxygen. It'd just fizzle I think. But thank god for the magic of television. Anything is possible.

Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
Dunno. Rockets are propulsed by combustion of sorts, aren't they? My guess is the bullet would have decreased velocity after a weakened explosion. But, as you say, the magic of television! =)
Haha, I'm now remembering an episode of Firefly where one character says "She needs oxygen around her to fire, and we ain't got a case." so they use a space suit to surround it with oxygen, haha.

Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
Good question, and I hadn't thought of it. Given that this is a hundred years in the future and that technology would have advanced significantly, and that space travel is now commonplace and the characters were specifically sent out into space, I'll say that the weapons they were issued are designed to function without oxygen or even in a vacuum. Maybe the shell casings in the ammo actually contain a small amount of oxygen, enough to enable combustion. If the characters from the last game had brought guns from 1930, those would not have had the same benefit.

Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
Well I'm definitely not trying to halt the game or anything. Just random musings. Oxygenated casings, or even the powder itself, is perfectly logical!

Once rockets are out of the atmosphere, they use compressed gas to push them about.
Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
Yes, that could work too.

Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
Heading out to California for some work - not sure how it will effect my gaming. But feel free to NPC me if necessary.

Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
I will be in Ireland for a week from Sunday 24th June. I'm not sure how good my internet connectivity will be, so probably best if Elizabeth is NPC'd for that week. Thanks.
Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
No problem.
I'll be away myself at a convention from July 4-8. There's a chance the game may be done by then, but I can't guarantee anything. If all goes as planned, I hope to start the third scenario, The Shadow Over Dunwich, in August. I still need to do a good deal more preparation before I'm ready to start it, though.

Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
Will be leaving early tomorrow, so signing out prior to my trip now. Will be back late Sunday 1st July. I may have Internet before then (there is supposed to be some from hotel, plus Trinity College where I'm going to the academic conference) but I'm not assuming it! Good luck to the players in the meantime, and thanks Mr Handy for looking after Elizabeth. She will use that "fire extinguisher" if necessary

Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
Everyone enjoy your trips. I finally got a chance to read through Terror in Time - really amazing game there. I was sure you guys were toast during that last encounter. Hopefully nothing more happens here, otherwise I don't think Alison will mentally or physically be making it through this.
Re: The Zero Room - OOC Chat Thread
Have a good time in Ireland, Yockenthwaite!
Thanks, CrackheadC! The Terror Out of Time was great, and the way the final encounter worked out was especially awesome.
