"Dragons are not lizards, you ignoramus. We are archosaurs, more like your ostriches than lizards.""THE ONLY REASON I WANT THEM GONE IS BECAUSE THE THREE OF YOU-""Such speciecism! Or self-hatred, given current draconic conditions. No wonder you have trouble controlling the government. You lack reptilian finesse."DELETE ALL LIZARDSAID ACTION* LordSlowpoke points fingers in various directions"ARE FORCING THEM UPON EVERYONE IN THIS HERE MULTIVERSE, AND THAT IS HORRIBLE"
In the technical meaning of an organ, that is an independent bunch specialized tissue, that affirmation is right. But not relevant in this context. Or, well, maybe it's just me that I'm seeing this a kind of Spore-like game.Why would he have made reference to a "sensory organ" if he meant something smaller than a single cell?
((Firstly, a quick search for "photoreceptor patch single cell" doesn't find anything about organisms smaller than a fruit fly, so I'm doubting their presence or importance in single-celled organisms. Secondly, if he meant "oral groove" why didn't he say that? And aren't things like diffusion and vesicles more "traditional" for single-celled organisms?))Oral grooves are not mouths, and stigmata are not organs.No, but they serve similar purposes and are somewhat analogous. Photoreceptor patches in particular are precursors to the eye (that's what I meant by stigmata, really - I've heard their eyes called stigmata some time ago, but apparently that's not what you're supposed to call them).
In regards to the debate on cells and science and whatnot, you are following what basically amounts to Spore rules, like some people mentioned, so logic and science aren't exactly at the forefront of the game. You can get all sciency if you like, through. Can't start the game yet because I'm typing on an iPod right now but I should be able to when I get home.So, something like zooplankton in size/complexity?
"Oh. A fencing sword would work great actually. Thought you meant a broadsword or something similar.""Still brittle. Don't go crossing blades with anyone that has access to metal. Or wooden swords, those are probably going to be tougher than yours, too."
"...Especially support beams if we start expanding the cave.""Which I intend to be working on...unless you think I should focus in that hematite vein, instead?"

I never called it a good idea.well, okay we get an army of superpowered villains. Then, they turn on us, or they do rampant crimes and while we are rich, we end up making the world a worse place to live in. We told ken we were making heroes. This runs counter to that statement.The idea is that the army would be used to fix our budget.We don't really have a reason to raise an army of superpowered criminals. Why would we do that anyway? We have more pressing concerns like ballancing the budget.#5. Definitely #5. Which means that we need to actually, you know, get some powers going on. We have a dose of Red Drake, so let's inject it into one of the Guinea Pigs.yes lets rise an army of superpowered criminals, if we start by selling it as a super steroid to a few low level drug dealers.
The thing to keep in mind when it comes to quest and SG's is that past decisions should set precedent for future decisions that arn't exactly made during times of conflict. Basically they define the puppets personality, then you simulate that personality and determine how that person would respond based on past actions.I'll keep that in mind, once we have some previous decisions to base it on.
Choices are most important when a problem needs to be solved. no one is going to vote over a particular statement because no cares about the result.True enough, but when precedent doesn't even cover the type of statement you make...
