I once had so many onboard that about 85% of view was obscured most of the time.
In the end, invited all the patrons of a seedy bar to a BBQ.
A great night was had by all.
Was even suggested I should go buy some more, unfortunately I've not met a dealer since.
Even picking up Trumble marked pods wasn't the answer, they are already BBQ'd and instructions say 30sec 900W micro. Add own sauce.

Wouldn't mind if the offer was made every so many jumps, just not too often. Takes a while to breed enough for a full on party. Would even start hauling some food just for them.
LOOK OUT!!!

Did someone say "BBQ"? I'm there man! :lol:
Take an idea from one person and twist or modify it in a different way as a return suggestion so another person can see a part of it that can apply to the oxp they are working on.

Funny enough, a couple of flights after last post, I was offered a box of furry BBQ bites.
Was it something I said?
I refused, He was asking too much.
Told him straight out, "You give me 1000Cr and I'll take them"
His legs moved so fast you'd think he was an octipod.

Most games have some sort of paddling-pool-and-water-wings beginning to ease you in: Oolite takes the rather more Darwinian approach of heaving you straight into the ocean, often with a brick or two in your pockets for luck. ~ Disembodied
