Ministry of Technology to Establish Scientific Base on the North Pole 08.11.2463 While the Tajara can reach the stars, there is much left to discover in Adhomai itself. The poles, alongside the deep sea and underground caverns, are one of the few unexplored frontiers remaining. Previous expeditions were able to reach the poles, but no serious effort was made to study the region in depth. Currently, no Adhomian state has formal claims to the polar territories. In their never-ending quest for knowledge, the Ministry of Technology has envisioned a plan to explore the polar regions of the planet. In the next months, a scientific base will be established at the north pole. The landing will be selected by a team of surveyors sent by submarines. The facility will contain several laboratories, living quarters, a self-sustainable hydroponics system, and other installations to accommodate a crew of hundreds of scientists, explorers, and military personnel. The expedition's crew will be equipped with HES-02 suits, a top-of-line environmental bodysuit designed by the Hadii Institute of Orbital Research. The suit also contains its own life support system and offers protection from several types of hazards. The Republican Navy is tasked with defending the base. Supplies will be delivered by submarines and airlifts The main mission of the north pole scientific base is to explore the arctic, collect scientific data, and survey the terrain for any valuable resources. Because of the poles' unique relationship with the Hma’trra Zvir, marine biologists expressed great interest in the expedition. The south pole will be the next site if the first installation proves to be successful. The proposal was personally presented by the Minister of Technology Zhuldyz Hadii to President Hadii. The plan was accepted without any kind of alteration or veto; the prospect of learning about Adhomai's final secrets was of great interest to the President. Research centers and colleges are now tasked with selecting their best staff to take part in the expedition. Projects to explore Adhomai's deep seas are currently being considered by the Ministry of Technology. [Attached, photo of the scientist wearing a HES-02 suit.]

Medical surgery area remapped a bit after feedback: Mining Shuttle (it might get different wall sprites and some tweaks, but this will be roughly the shape): No sprite teaser today because kyres has been busy with irl, but we are currently working on the implementing the feedback and the new unfirosm.

Antags don't need to monologue or do some kind of exposition when killing people. However, murders needs a purpose or reason. You can't just go around murdering everyone just because you can. Now about events, I agree somewhat with what Faye said. If you join an event that might be violent, you are taking the risk. Don't want to die, don't go to where you might die. I don't agree on the fun aspect. Fun is subjective, thus we strive for what is interesting/creates roleplay. It is more of a greater good approach than trying to appease everyone's wants.

What this introduces character or background wise that the other contractors options in security or medical won't be able to?

Kinda late to say that when you already tried to paint me as someone that got people involved in a week-long project just to remove characters because I did not like them or their players. This kind of accusation with no real proof just makes me less willing to do events or contribute to the community. No. Most events don't have 90 players in a non-station map that requires constant interaction from the staff. If there was something I could have done, you are free to tell me. But I have been running events for years and it is never that easy. I have enough people to play all roles I could not. But ultimately I had to play the bayonet hand because I was the only person who knew how to. No, it was not. I had thermals and could see everything. People were everywhere and armed. I could not mess around or I would be killed quickly. I explained already that the entire ambience and preparing was set with two weeks worth of build up, casino staff dead, the marking showing up, the article, and whatever people could share. So no, I could not give an entire monologue as the bayonet hand because I was actively fighting the entire crew on my own. Sorry but saying that you would do x in my shoes is insulting. Please try to run an event like that before even considering writing this. I am speaking from at least 4 years of experience. It is not easy and was not possible. I am not lazy or incompetent. I did all I could during that event. I don't even think that anyone before in the server ran events of that escale in regards to online people. These things did exist as hints in articles, extended events, during the regular events, relay stuff, and the final event itself. I explained already, it was a two weeks arc with a mystery behind it. It is up to the players to discover and theorize. Someone dropping on the final event will have a bit of a problem in getting the big picture. But I assure you that there were hints and other things to let people discover things. If I am telling a story, I won't use exposition by having event characters speak non stop to the crew to explain x lore fact, that is not interesting in my opinion. People died because they were fighting a hostile element, that is the gist of the story here. I can't hype up a mythical serial killer that does not kill people. Death gives weight to what is happening, instead of being just a random guy stabbing people in the dark for them to be patched in some minutes. It was a violent story with violence.

You were indeed getting involved by being there. You also survived the first attack. However, you decided to very much the same thing that got you hurt. You went alone in the darkness instead of playing safe after being attacked once. And you must take in consideration that this was not even remotely similar to a mercenary round. It was an event round with 90 players online, there is no way I can give an entire monologue to everyone; that would be literally impossible. In fact, at the first time I attacked you, I left you wounded so people could rescue you. And I am unsure what information you are expecting. People were aware that the bayonet hand was around for more than two weeks. People found his mark in the casino. The casino staff died. It is more than obvious that a serial killer is around. You must also take in consideration that I can't recap two weeks of events and articles to everyone every time without delaying the event. We had a lot of people around, we had to get things going. If you did not know something, ask around.

Yes.

Finances = usual hop duties And the operations manager will handle operations. Nothing more.

A new job will be added to the service department: Service Manager. This job is not whitelisted and not a head of staff; it is similar to how the quartermaster works now. They will be tasked with managing the service department, alongside with having access to the service account. They will answer directly to the Executive Officer.

On the top of that. Casino crew had died already. I must also need to point out that icky's character was in the area where the murders happened, alone, and with a gun in hand. They were not chilling with their friends in some corner. At this point, I will likely stop making these jokes. It is very annoying to have people search discords they don't even participate for some kind of evidence to frame you as a griefer while ignoring the context of the conversation.

Same as hop. No. We should avoid alt title as much as possible.

Head of personnel will be renamed to Executive Officer: the job won't control the cargo/operations department, but it will be in charge of the general bridge operations, id changes, staff assignments, and usual hop duties. They are not the second in command. The ship won't be a total secret research space station. There is a living area off-map.

I tried to get as much people involved by: -making an announcement telling people if they wanted to join they could just send me a message -doing a couple of events to try to recruit people. Like with the radio channels and other by asking directly at the common channel as an event character. -telling and urging people to involve others as well

No. There is a feedback thread for that.

I did not aheal after I was hit by the rifle rounds from the crew. I only used the combat hypospray and healing packs. And the bayonet hand melee weapon had its damaged reduced for the final event. The firearm was a machine gun, which deals less way damage than a rifle. I also had to use drugs to avoid being mobbed by the crew. It was not a team death match because there was no teams. It was the station versus a single character. And medical was needed there because people were going to be hurt by all kind of things. No. Because no mercenary round will have two weeks of buildup with the backing of unique code and lore. Besides, no mercenary round would have in universe consequences.

I also like to point out that we had a couple of extended minievents, which I said would happen, to shed more lights in the overall plot with clues. So if you just showed up at the last event, the chances you would get a story that was going for two weeks were quite low.

The event had two sides trying to kill him. One of the sides smuggled weapons. People that were working with these sides were told about the casino being a plan to lure him.

Weapons and guns were smuggled to kill the bayonet hand.

No bombing happened during the final event. A bombing was prevented in Mendell city due to the crew's action in the final event.

Also, about the story part. It was an event with 90 people online, not everyone would get every detail. And some people did get the story and enjoyed it: https://forums.aurorastation.org/topic/16550-ghosts-of-war-lore-arc-feedback/?tab=comments#comment-151652

Unsure how having a medical bay would help with killing more people. If anything, it saved more lifes. Already explained how it is not gank. We had two weeks worthy of escalation and murders before the crew was attacked. The bayonet hand could be hurt by the rifle rounds. Like I explained, I had lost a lot of blood and had at least 60 of brain damage before I was caught by the fbi. Also take in consideration that this was a single enemy againt more than 40+ players. Unsure why you are speaking in their behalf if their experiences were negative or not. I could indeed be hurt by the crew. The crew was meant to be fighting vanguard natediists. From the wiki, which I wrote: "Vanguard Natediism: an extreme form of Natediism that believes that the victory of Al’mariism is ultimately inevitable due to its superior design. However, this triumph is only possible through armed conflict. Vanguard Natediism seeks to accelerate this supposed historical progress via all available means; restarting the Adhomian war is its main goal. " You were not there. This would happen when the crew were breaking into the bunker. They knew that a bad guy was there. The people breaking there were also armed and had voidsuits. @DanseMacabre was there as far I remember. Once again, if you look at the context, everyone was joking about this. The weapons were not false. They just had blanks because they were meant to be prizes in the casino vending machines. They could be loaded with live ammo that could be found anywhere. People did that. In fact, they could find plastique explosives in non locked places to break into a vault full of ammo.

I had emps because we had at least one ipc at the casino at the time, played by @Colfer I think. It was also a giant group when I attacked them at the suite, so I wanted to disable their radios so I would not be rushed like it happened early. I am also unsure how that is evidence of anything. I had zero outside of character issues with the player.

Please post the evidence that I have a metagrudge against someone. I don't think there is any reason to just mention that and want to reveal it later. I want to defend myself against this accusation too.

First of all. Let me remind you of the following: So yes, it was expected to be something big. The event was about a serial killer. People died before, this event was indeed going to be violent. There was two events, several articles, and extended happenings worth of escalation. I even invited people in the discord if they wanted to get involved. So no, I did not break the escalation rule because we had two weeks of build up for a final show down. Also, take in consideration that the event npcs were killed before any crew was hurt. People were aware that murders were going to happen. Besides, the casino crew had guns and id with access to the casinos doors with them. I gave them a lot of tools to defend themselves and find more weapons. On the guns. They were not false, just loaded with blanks. This has been a thing for the past two events. You could also load the guns with live ammo that could be found in a lot of places. People later found the clips and loaded the guns. When the fbi caught me, I had more than 60 of brain damage due to the bullets hits. On your death. You survived the first encounter. Then you decided to wander alone in the darkness after being attacked by a killer. This was not really something smart. I did not try to get you in the middle of everyone. You were alone in a place with a hostile assassin. Other people died like this too. About the outpost, it was obvious that there was something there. Someone unrelated to the arc event broke inside the suit section. But ultimately, people that were not even that involved in the arc broke there and prevent the bombing. Meta grudge who? What evidence is there that I have beefy with anyone who I killed? I even killed characters from people that I have zero problems with and we joke around a lot (Loc's player in question). About the deadchat stuff, these were nothing but jokes on a slasher-like event and the bad moon body count. There was no rush because I could not even run at them due to the brain damage. This is offensive. It is really wacky to say that all the effort that kyres, kingoftheping, the lore writers, all the volunteers, and I put in this arc was just to murder people. The story was going to be violent, people were going to die. It is more than obvious from the previous event and the articles. I spent years of my freetime in this community working on lore, code, and moderation. I am not here to grief or fuck with people. This is something that pisses me off to no end. I was not the only person involved in this discussion. Please prove that. Don't say that I have some kind of metagrudge against people without evidence. It is your burden to prove. You can't just throw this here.

National Assembly Discuss the Incident in Mendell City Following the supposed terrorist plot in Tau Ceti and Jargon Federation's recent political move, President Almrah Harrlala called an urgent meeting to discuss these events. Party representatives, Liberation Army officials, Tau Ceti diplomats, and all junta commanders, except Ahem Kah'nrir and Alexeii K'marr, were present for the conference. Before President Harrlala opened the meeting with a brief statement: The Nation Assembly quickly descended into shouting and accusations when President Harrlala finished speaking. After order was restored, Ex-interim President Brajrr Alnadruskiy spoke: Rahman Hadjuk, Commander Kyff Hotak, the Free Tajaran People's and the Followers of Nated parties opposed the investigation. Muharajuurl Muhr'Fal, Commander Kahan Hro'rammhad, and the National Adhomai Worker's Party agreed with the proposal. The Adhomian Blue Party was swayed to support the President after they were promised the expansion of national reserves in Southern Ras'nrr. Supreme Commander Nated decided to remain neutral; the Followers of Nated party, despite the protests of Ex-Interim President Alnadruskiy, changed their stance to match the Supreme Commander's decision. Nated made a brief commentary on the matter: President Harrlala's proposal was approved with the majority of the votes. Since the Liberation Army claimed not to be involved, the investigation will be carried out by the law agencies of the civilian administration. President Almrah Harrlala closed the meeting by speaking to the diplomats present: Bieselitte representatives praised President Harrlala's speech and promised to collaborate with the investigation.
