The poor guy desperately wants to meet the other characters too.

Probably real life commitments. Everyone should come back on the forums at some point in the near future, though.

I'm posting my own idea for a RP, right now.

I'm glad we have a new pilot too. Hendrik would have struggled to control the weapons systems along with actually flying the ship.

Oh, one thing I was wondering: Are we ignoring the general theory of relativity? If we're not, travelling at light speed will propel us far into the future, relative to Wintreath.

We'll ignore ol Einstein for now. I don't want Interstellar to happen and Wintwreath's only crop becomes corn or whatever they grew. It is a theory, even though it appears to be very true no matter how much scientists try to prove it wrong.

It's not just a theory anymore. It was proven to be true in something like 1971.

But it would be inconvenient for the plot, so I'm on board with with ignoring it.

It should be renamed to a law then lol. I guess its because theres some part of the science community that refuses to give up.

Yeah, I think the problem with naming it a law is that large portions of general and special relativity don't check out yet, because of the existence of dark energy.

Theory in colloquial and scientific use have different meanings, though. A scientific theory refers to a well-supported explanation.

And in any case, most envisioned FTL technologies are loopholes around Einstein's theories.

20 laser batteries - 6 small laser batteries on each side and 4 big laser batteries on each side. and a torpedo/missile system or whatever you call those these days. There are also minor AA turrets.

Alien technology may be stronger or equal force than ours.

Hmm, @Commander_Zemas, there is one... I don't know whether I'd call it a rule, exactly, but certainly a serious guideline, that OOC knowledge should never translate to IC knowledge. It is perfectly reasonable to think that the captain might be aware of Hendrik's dinner, despite not being invited himself, but then you have to explain how he found out about this.

I've been meaning to mention this when the captain thought to himself that he had best start keeping an eye on @Gerrick 's character too. Certainly, there would be IC hints for something like this, but not explaining what they are gives the impression of one-upping someone purely based on OOC knowledge.

It's quite simple really. The whole ship is mostly connected to one system, one network. I'll mention it in the future, but I'll stop looking at the network for now then.

Personally, I think that the universe is infinite and expanding into nothing. This does not rule at the possibility of multiple universes, of course. I also find the simulation hypothesis (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation_hypothesis) rather compelling.

Of course, this is rather irrelevant to the RP, since at that point, still nobody would know anything about the nature of the universe. At the rate the USS Wintreath is travelling, we aren't going to make it to the other side of our galaxy, let alone to the edge of the universe.

I mean, the Grand Prince already mentioned that he's under orders to explore for the rest of his life, so this exile just reinforces that a bit if he chooses to not return now. It might also change his character, but that's a different discussion.

Alexsandr was just part of a noble family that ruled a specific part of land for generations. I'm trying not to add to much politics into the Homeworld right now, I think the Wintreath Union will help establish that. But Wintreath is considered to be a powerful, perhaps the most, on the homeworld right now.

It might make sense; since USS Wintreath is for long-term transport, there might be something faster on the short-term.

Or, if necessary, they could catch up while we're on a break at one of the outposts/colonies.

You could work on the FTL drive (Zemas, is it canon in this RP to be called a warp drive?) for the first 2.5 years and then make the jump past lightspeed.

But considering how this is a very primitive FTL drive, I think for longer travels we'll still need to go into stasis.

Currently it is named FTL Drive, since it is a prototype. The Engineering crew can name it one it stabilizes. And yeah, long travels will need to go into stasis.

Post by: BraveSirRobin on November 28, 2015, 04:09:34 AM
If we have a prototype FTL drive, that means we have achieved a stable space-time distortion field, which makes the final problem the ability to maintain the integrity of the field, which means lots of power. We need to just upgrade the power systems and then we could maintain the speed until fuel reserves run out. That involves matter-antimatter reactions in the power core though, so you're essentially creating an entirely new power system from scratch, hence the really long time to complete the modifications.

Alright, we have our first life-or-death situation approaching, and we'd best get a few things straight before it, @North, @BraveSirRobin, @xXTheHydraXx, and @Gerrick.

Currently, HKR has David pinned and ready to end his life. The Vulcan, Hendrik and Gunthar are about to investigate what happened too.

I think it might be best for David to answer HKR's question first.

By the way North, I really liked the way you're handling the character, despite your rule violation. :)

Alright, a minor gripe I have with @Bodobol is that the OOC messages could get posted as an explanation here, instead of in the IC thread. It breaks people's immersion, you see. :)

And North, it is also discouraged to assume we magically know where David is. :)

We need to explore a bit first. That's not to say those footsteps couldn't be ours, but you have to say something like that after we've indicated IC that we're on your trail. :)

The hallway must be close to the bridge, David managed to make it there rather quickly, so it could be a corridor thats near the bridge, or a corridor that you must traverse to get from the bridge or something.

He obtained it, while on an operation for the military. He just conveniently failed to mention that fact to his CO. :P

He then tinkered with it to set up its personality, but he doesn't have the technological prowess to make something like this. It could become standard if he gave it to the engineers and scientists to study, I suppose.

Sure, I suppose so. After all, its hacking protocols need updating.

Title: Wintreath Space Expeditions (OOC)
Post by: Laurentus on November 28, 2015, 11:23:43 AM
I think it's too late to hide his existence. He attacked two crewmen, one of them an officer whom he then had a chat with.

I will say that Hendrik might be fascinated enough by HKR that he would be willing to keep his location a secret, fearing the crew's reaction if they found HKR.
Title: Wintreath Space Expeditions (OOC)

In the same way that Pieter could become aware of another AI when he gains access to the ship, I think HKR might become aware of Pieter if HKR were hooked up to the network at the exact same time that were happening.

And now we see why it is problematic to say things like us hearing footsteps unless that has been previously arranged:

Anderson closed his eyes and listened as the robot's footsteps grew softer. After about thirty seconds, he looked down at his wrist and sent a message to all the main crew members and the captain, "I'm making my way to the bridge. Sorry for the delay." He thought it best not to mention the robot for now, as he let slip that the person in charge would be at the bridge, he expected the robot to head towards there. For now, he would honor his word and keep its existence a secret. After all, he didn't want to be on its bad side... at least until he studied it more. He slowly rose and made his way to the bridge.

What could seem like a safe assumption, is still just that: an assumption. What is the mother of all fuck-ups? :P

@BraveSirRobin, whose footsteps will those be now?

You're right, Aragonn. I apologise.

Should we implement a turn-based system again? That seems most fair. It would mean that we'd lose some activity, but we'd gain more player involvement.

In the case of North, such a turn-based system would mean you wouldn't miss as much either. But your situation unfortunately means that you'll miss a bit.

I think North designed his character in such a way as to ensure it making sense for him to be inactive sometimes, and to make it easy for the rest of us to progress during the week.

The turn-based system would simply minimise the amount of things he'd miss, and give busy people like Aragonn, who can be on every day, but not for long, an equal foot in the door.

The PvC RP we have in NH uses a turn based system that determines who posts next on who we need to hear from at that moment. Tau could have posted and done something to interact with Laurentus, but since had taken a turn more recently than me, it was then my turn to post.

I think we should have Aragonn post next, actually.

Chase might be interested in the developing situation, and since he's our scientist, might find the AI very interesting too. He might even be able to diffuse the situation by offering to fix the robot.

Yeah, the fault doesn't lie with you, Aragonn. We've all kinda lost control of this situation, and you tried to warn us about it.

Let's take some time to discuss what we'll do now.

One option could be to copy our posts, and paste them here, then figure out a logical progression and adapt our posts to fit with that. Then we request for all of our posts after a certain point to be deleted, so we may post again in the proper logical order.

How does that sound to everyone?

My opinion of a turn based system:

Also, yes, The damage to HKR was supposed to be a handwavy explanation as to why he would power down for periods of time.
Title: Wintreath Space Expeditions (OOC)
Post by: Laurentus on November 29, 2015, 01:26:30 AM
Hmm, we could work something out like Chase being able to fix the physical damage, but not in a way that leaves you fully functioning. Something like requiring you to recharge for 5 days for 2 days of mobility. That would fit in with your schedule.

Also, Aragonn, I could go back and copy your posts for you.

Since no one was actively against the idea, all that remains is executing it. I say we copy everything in the aftermath of the dinner, since that's where things began to get funky, and then alter it and piece it together back from there.

Title: Wintreath Space Expeditions (OOC)

Alright, let's figure this out.

A few rules were broken here, but the auto-hitting and so forth weren't really that big a problem at the time. The bigger problems arrived with no postal order being established, and people assuming too much, like the footsteps thing, correct?

One thing we could do is arrange things so that Chase ends up fixing HKR, and get more in-depth about that once North comes back next weekend.

We'd shuffle the rest around in a way for us to continue comfortably for the next week, and together with an established turn-based system and a crackdown on assumptions, we'd prevent the situation from becoming too chaotic until next weekend.
Title: Wintreath Space Expeditions (OOC)
Post by: Arenado on November 29, 2015, 05:43:40 AM
Actually, I have an idea. What if HKR was... lets say disabled? Or the damage to him causes him to shut down at the current moment. Then you can do whatever over the week.

Hmm. What you could do is create a Backstory Logs topic. Each character could expand his character's backstory at any time by adding reports about the character, conversation logs, private logs... anything really.

It would create a nice little tidbit of activity during down times, and it's quite neat.

But yeah, if everyone is too lazy to do something about our previous clusterfuck (me chief among them! :)) I say we just forget this little incident and continue on properly.

Who should post next?

One thing, though: the current system seems to help keep dialogue portions of the RP more fluid. Would we be able to maintain that style of RP if we transition to a different system?

Other than that, I think assigning when people post is a good idea.
Title: Wintreath Space Expeditions (OOC)

I vote for anything that would prevent multiple people posting at the same time then having to go back to modify (or just regret) what they said since it wouldn't make sense. Whether that means having turns, assigning when people post, negotiating who goes next, or whatever, it'll be better than the kind of disorganization we have now.

Okay, it seems everyone is in agreement.

I think we should have Aragonn take the robot to the lab to work on him, and then we go into stasis and do a time-skip. Does that sound good to everyone?

Lol, good plan. Problem is we don't have North's consent. I doubt it would be auto-hitting, given HKR's circumstances, but I'd feel best having North know about this. For now, we don't have to elaborate any more than that HKR is under maximum security, and in containment.
Title: Wintreath Space Expeditions (OOC)
Post by: Aragonn on November 30, 2015, 01:14:21 AM
My thought process is that HKR is incapacitated and unable to fight against it, so there's no reason to allow him to respond to an attempt.

The rest of the crew don't know that it threatened to kill Anderson.

"Orders from the boss man himself," he said before lifting HKR onto his shoulders. "Somebody mind bringing his staff? I wanna take a look at it."

Also, who should bring HKR-07's staff?
Title: Wintreath Space Expeditions (OOC)

We have to remember to hold a meeting to determine a second-in-command IC too.

@Commander_Zemas, would you arrange that IC?

Yeah, I don't think that was your fault. That thread always stayed on the bottom grouping. Like, whenever From the Ashes was the top group because it had the most recent post, there was only one backstory logs thread, which was on the bottom group with Wintreath Space Expeditions. But when Wintreath Space Expeditions was the top group, then a duplicate remained on the bottom in From the Ashes. So it was something wrong with the site, I think.

By the way, somebody correct me if this is wrong as I don't know how this stuff works. I'm just trying to give an idea to get this thing going again. We'd of course let it go more naturally when conversation starts back up and it's obvious as to who'd go next.

I think we might just do order of listed. Or create a order of importance when an event happens. Conversation will not be turned based (or it will be awkward as heck).

I think that might be @Wintermoot's method to split the RPs. So we should simply request that the Backstory logs get moved to the rest of the WintEx section. :)
Sorry, I'm just now getting through my mentions...at 5am, lol -.-

This is correct...even after a topic has been moved to the Gathering, I have to manually attach it to a RP through the forum's actual code, or else it will always just stay at the bottom of the forum. The best way to get this done is to just mention me on anything that is being moved here.

That'll be fine. As long as you don't just like, blow up the entire ship like the death star. :P

@Daoine pacaiste, we're trying to establish a posting order so as not to have a repeat of that mess last week. Please check here before you post IC. Your post is making this all a little devoid of sense again.

Also, you can't really extend your hand to greet the new guy, since we're all kinda imprisoned right now. :P

Also, it would make things easier to read if your dialogue was in "quotation marks."

Oh sorry I missed the posting order thing!

And I thought the containment thing was like around the room not imprisoning each person indvidually.

Who's gonna be allowed to go off-ship? I would assume the Captain, a pilot to fly the shuttle, the three explorers (Gunther, Aria, and Anderson), maybe HKR-07 (though Zerick is working on its processor), and possibly Aine since he could act as a medic (though I'm not sure if we want our doctor in the line of fire).

But I would assume the others would stay on-ship: Tomalek since he's the XO, and the engineers and scientists since their not really fighters (though I suppose it'd be up to them and the Captain since anyone can shoot a gun).

Are we good to move on now?  Or perhaps people should post more in the backstory logs so we don't stagnate?  After all, stagnation isn't good for RP lives...

What does bump mean?

Quote from: Webopedia
In online forums and other online discussion spaces bump is the word used to describe an action (e.g. a message post) so that a particular thread is returned to the top in the list of threads. Some users may even post a message with only the word "bump" to indicate they are posting only to bump the thread to the top of the list where more users will see it.

EDIT: Just so everyone knows, "shore party" means the group of people who are not on the ship the USS Wintreath.

  You could have them auto-move or something... otherwise this might take a while... the priority should be to get this mission moving so we can get back to the ship, have "shore leave" at the colony, and pick up a few more crew members. (Perhaps @Govindia and @Nox )?

Post by: Gerrick on September 01, 2016, 10:01:28 PM
Zemas has been quite inactive for awhile and posted in another RP thread saying how he was too busy to really take part, so perhaps you want to take over, Robin? You were second-in-command and have obviously been trying the hardest to get this going again.

North posted last asking a question to Zemas, which is what prevented us from going further, so perhaps we can get around this by cutting off the conversation with something go horribly wrong, incapacitating the inactive shore party members (Zemas (Captain Aleksandr) and Daoine pacaiste (Doctor Aine)) in the ensuing trouble. Bodobol (Surveyor Aria) can just remain inactive on the ship. If they come back and decide they want to take part again, then we could heal them or whatever.

We'd of course need to allow everyone else time to be prepared to post if we do reboot this way, though.

From there we could perhaps regroup on the ship to allow everyone else the time to get reacquainted with the RP (ie, reread over everything), allow those who don't want to take further part to officially "quit" (their characters can just fade away into the background like Bodobol's or die if they want), and plan for a way to allow new members to join if they wish.


Just a recap of the current situation:

Explorer Gunther (me), Aviator Hendrik (Laurentus), Scientist Fern Hun (Rass), and Doctor Aine (Daoine) are at the shuttle locked on the station. Hendrik was shot in the shoulder but has an EMP grenade. Fern Hun set up a sentry turret and is manning an LMG.

Captain Aleksandr (Zemas), Explorer Anderson (Hydra), and HKR-07 (North) are in a maintenance shaft, heading towards the armory/command center?

Commander Tomalek (Robin) and Engineer Zerick (Aragonn) are heading towards the station on a shuttle with two more shuttles full of security personnel following. Zerick is wearing a protective exoskeleton, and there are several other exoskeletons and EVA suits on board the shuttle.

Astrogater James (taulover), Scientist Aaben (Eldarion), and Surveyor Aria (Bodobol) are aboard the USS Wintreath.

I think that the best option at this point would probably be to somehow timeskip into the future to a Wintreath station or something to allow new people into the Roleplay and allow inactive characters to "disembark" and such. 

Do you think I should go ahead and mention everyone to get sort of the groupthought on this?

Ultimately, I think it's up to Robin, in the absence of Zemas. Or alternatively, if Robin doesn't want to decide, I guess we defer to Aragonn, as Guildmaster?

Note to self: Come up with a comprehensive contingency plan for moments like these.

So does anyone know what the vision was for this first episode really?  We could work on some sort of synopsis collaboratively and then post that and create a new application thread, I think!! :) 

But above all I think the biggest mistake was the destruction of the application thread at some point... NO roleplay can survive without new players, because like it or not, old players inevitably go inactive.  :/
Title: Wintreath Space Expeditions (OOC)

Title: Wintreath Space Expeditions (OOC)

I believe his original vision would've been something like a Star Trek: Enterprise type of thing. If you've never watched that show, I highly recommend it. It's on Netflix. :P

The robots were originally supposed to be Wintrean robots, as was stated by Zemas, but he decided to go with them being from his FtA nation because he goofed up when describing where the robots were from.

Sounds really good actually! North can then incapacitate the other robots, and then we can land on the station only to find a bunch of knocked out crewmen and North on the bridge or something. Probably some sort of gas or something, I'd assume. Nonlethal, obviously

Well the scouting party hasn't encountered any other robots that know of their location yet, right? So really HKR just needs to drag Aleksandr and Anderson back to the shuttle where the rest of us will be unconscious.

The robots know of the shuttle's location, though, or at least the first ones we encountered somehow knew.

How would the rescue party get inside the station though since the hanger door locked down?

Is the maintenance shaft relatively empty?

Also, for those less aware of Sci-Fi conventions and so forth, how much space should we expect in said maintenance shaft?

EDIT: Also, how do these droids communicate with each other, and with the command center? Is it safe to assume that they have some wireless capabilities, and are thus somewhat unsecured from a virtual attack?

And finally, can we assume there are computers throughout the station that are linked up to the command center?

1. The following is an approximate dimension of a maintenance shaft in Star Trek, which is what this RP is essentially based on.  I would also assume that they're relatively unblocked. 
(https://wintreath.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fcdn.playbuzz.com%2Fcdn%2F1dfd071f-193d-4284-bb3f-13712f171c2f%2F10d9e57e-81ad-4b6f-8b47-5734bbc6be51.jpg&hash=aa6da609efbff67caefb322dc2db6b18)

2. I'm not entirely sure how they communicate, but I'd assume their communication processes would be independent of the station central computer.  And I'd also assume that they have wireless network capabilities and are susceptible to viruses, I suppose.  Finally yes, there are computer stations on most Starfleet vessels connected to the bridge/command centre, but if we're still going on loosely based on Star Trek, I believe that most manual overrides are only capable of being entered through the bridge/engineering with lots of time. 

3. To be clear, most of my assumptions about the robots are just sort of conjectures from the borg/Lt. Cmdr. Data in Star Trek TNG.  @Aragonn might know more about them than I do.

Huh, so if Hendrik can get his watch to interface with one of these droids, is it plausible for him to overclock the droids' CPUs to a ridiculous degree, forcing them to either shut down to avoid further damage, or else fry their CPUs from the increased heat outputs?

I'm thinking of introducing some sort of virus to do just that.

Of course, I imagine some droids would be removed from whatever communications system the rest of them are hooked up on, and would remain unaffected.

Finally a question to @North. Can I assume that HKR's software and hardware would be unaffected by something like this?

That would be tricky. I suppose you could say that as a "sentient being" HKR can rearrange his programming into such a way that the virus would do nothing to him.
Title: Wintreath Space Expeditions (OOC)
Post by: Laurentus on September 05, 2016, 06:20:23 AM
Hmm, I would have thought HKR used different software than these droids, and would thus remain unaffected. If he doesn't, then Hendrik could simply tell him to switch off any wireless functions, so as to remain unaffected, right?

Anyway, I was thinking that this could maybe trigger the gas that knocks us out, as the ship's last defence mechanism or something.

The tricky part I haven't gotten an answer for yet, is why Hendrik went silent for a few hours. Maybe something like being surrounded by droids after moving away from the rest of the people at the shuttle, and thus not being able to say anything, lest the droids hear him?

If everyone's happy with this, I'll go ahead and do an IC post. So please raise your objections soon.

Two problems with that:

1. He can't upload a virus if he's unconscious.

2. The doctor would probably have stopped the bleeding.

But if the plan is that everyone got knocked out, then I guess I don't really need to explain anything else.

I don't picture HKR to have any communication hardware besides his auditory processors. I also picture his hard drive, or whatever you want to call it, to be shielded from intrusive signals and hacking. Seeing as how he's a high tech assassination android, these things would be intentional designs to defer electronic defenses.

I mean, he didn't really have to have gone silent for a couple hours. The story was just focusing on the other groups at the time. Rass, Daoine, and I didn't say anything during that time either. We were just busy dealing with our own situation.

Since Bodobol and Daoaine are unlikely to return to this RP, I'm guessing Gerrick's character is going to have to help Hendrik.

Not that it matters, but I don't believe Bodobol ever made it off the ship, so his character isn't with us. He last posted when he was helping load the shuttle but never got on.

Perhaps Hendrik can try and talk Gunther (my character) through the hacking?

I've always felt it to be common courtesy for new players to read everything they've missed to catch up. That way, they're more versed in the universe when they actually participate, and (more importantly IMO) it shows commitment and suggests to fellow players that they aren't going to simply disappear after a few months.

I'm not saying you should pore over the text or anything; just skim over it a bit. Most posts are only one or two lines long.

In any case, I'll give you the TL;DR: Bunch of guys get on a spaceship, they've now arrived at a planet with a space station that's being attack by robots or something.

Yes, only slightly less.....evil. It's hard to pass off as a protocol droid if you sound exactly like that .

Yeah, I wasn't sure how I wanted to go about it. I think he's gonna hide the fact he knows it to others and try to blackmail Hendrik later or something like that.

Also, I forgot whether AI are altogether illegal or just forbidden on the ship or what.
Title: Wintreath Space Expeditions (OOC)
Post by: Laurentus on September 09, 2016, 01:24:27 AM
I don't know about AI in general in this universe, but the backstory I have for exactly how Hendrik acquired this particular one is... interesting, to say the least. The Hyperians will remember just how dangerous a certain New Hatfieldian prince is.

And what a coincidence, I was going to have Hendrik blackmail Gunther because it's so obvious it's the first time he fired that gun. This is going to be interesting. :P

I hope we could reboot this, but we will probably have to relook who wants to still participate, and how we continue the story in a way that will progress it from its current point.

Yeah.  Basically something would have to be written tying the present stuff off—perhaps killing of members of the crew that don't want to be in it anymore—and then replenish at some "starport" or something and allow in newbies.
Title: Wintreath Space Expeditions (OOC)

We can continue the RP under new management. But I do feel as if we need to archive the current IC thread and start anew.
Title: Wintreath Space Expeditions (OOC)

Well perhaps not archive as much as make a clear demarkation between "Season 1" and "Season 2" and stuff like that.  That way we can go back to it and reference stuff from it :)

Well it wouldn't be "end in a failure" really.  Just like other things "off camera" implied if you will, maybe a quick write-up on what happened, etc.
Title: Wintreath Space Expeditions (OOC)
Post by: Aragonn on February 27, 2017, 03:19:01 AM
I see. We could write that the trip to the station ended in a lot of casualties and forced the ship to turn back for more crewmen.
Title: Wintreath Space Expeditions (OOC)
Post by: BraveSirRobin on February 27, 2017, 04:09:21 AM
Ahh.  I suppose I was thinking something with a bit more of a flair for the dramatic.  Something like sacrificing the ship and being forced to use the escape pods to land on the planet, and stuff like that.  Then we get a "new ship" for a new expedition some years later after the immediate space surrounding Wintreath is secure and stuff.  If that makes sense.  Maybe that's too dramatic though...

Perhaps the unknown is the best answer. Maybe the crew successfully resolved the incident at the border, and went on their way, but was never heard from again.

Title: Wintreath Space Expeditions (OOC)
Post by: Aragonn on February 27, 2017, 05:00:44 PM
I have problems with that though.

1. An event like that would cause a delay in the deployment of another ship. We're talking several years or more as people try to figure out what happened, what went wrong, and how to prevent it from happening again.

2. This will no longer be the first expedition. It's always more dramatic when it's the first expedition.

3. I won't have my brilliant engineer character anymore...
Title: Wintreath Space Expeditions (OOC)
Post by: Gerrick on February 27, 2017, 09:58:52 PM
I think if we keep some of the same characters, then we should also keep this ship as it's supposed to be like state of the art, right? Plus the whole delay thing Aragonn said. I suppose that leads me to a question:

@Commander_Zemas , since you're not hosting this RP anymore, are you still wanting to be the captain? Because that would probably affect things quite a bit.
