Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.
She didn't do that intentionally though. She explicitly stated she didn't realize the math could be used to leapfrog the Jump-3 development and was surprised by it.
It functioning entirely because of social engineering is exactly why Earth cannot be allowed to continue existing once they find...
There are people that are good at taking in and retaining information but aren't good at utilizing that information or merely have a social bent over an engineering/pure science bent. As in, managing people just grabs her interest and effort than math. She, from their perspective, essentially...
If not that a slow charged Inspired Inventor would be real neat. Given Cliff's recent comments for Industrious' II Naruto story. The intrigue of wanting to do good but being under observation of Corps and AI practically 24/7 unless you went out of town Nomad style. Maybe just post Bartmoss'...
Ah well, I did like the story but as one of those new regulars who'd read anything you write I do have to say this was one of the less interesting of your stories but I put that more on the setting which I am just not as familiar with. Hope you find something you'll enjoy writing!
I cannot for the life of me remember the 2-3 names of the ones I've read that concluded at least semi-decently but atleast one of those was almost purely from various outside perspectives.
Also SW not having been touched is a little weird because some of the stories told about the Great Old...
So small team of adventurers that allows for tech talk. Three properties jump out to me, one if which has already been mentioned: Stargate, X-Com, and Ghostbusters.
Stargate I think makes for an interesting mechanic to play with, that being the 'Gate itself. It could be used as the method of...
Problem there is that a lot of sub 200 choices are broken as fuck because some people couldn't understand scaling while writing jump docs. Or some settings were THAT broken.
Maybe Eclispe Phase or The Expanse?
For a lighter(?) Cyberpunk tone there is the Archie comics Sonic the Hedgehog which got pretty dark at times.
For a different super hero setting The Boys is a (I am 14 and this is) edgy universe with yet another asshole!superman.
I think Inspired Voyage makes an argument for II not being an "I Win" in certain settings and scenarios. He could have gotten them home in like a week to a month even with gimped 1 charged per week. The reason he didn't was because the time in the Delta quadrant was important, that much of it...
Not sure something as relatively petty as "Base level sexism" is a good enough reason to create a breakaway polity when you know a major galactic conflict is about to kickoff.
As far as combining CF and II: an idea that admittedly leans more II than CF would be that the MC would get X charges...
SO I guess the question becomes where is the primary struggle, is it internal or external. Internal sounds like a good idea since its already foreshadowed, she wanted to live a normal life but got told effectively by God that war was coming and if she didn't do anything her entire reality would...
