After Earth OOC

Quick tip I use: Copy the text before hitting "post", then you can past it again if the forums mess up!
I feel your pain, happened to me all the time before I applied the copy/past thingy.

I've been doing this exact same thing for years. And for any of my long posts, I write them up in notepad first and then copy them over, just to avoid this.

I'm figuring that since Gaetanna spent days/weeks fiddling with the ships systems she would know that this "AI" isn't the ship's pre-installed AI, especially considering that Angel Industries would have made a detailed survey of the Gold Greed before they initially loaned it out to the group (and that she would theoretically have had access to that information (if Grandpa Vincent actually wanted to to learn something about business while on this voyage). Also, considering this ship is on a company funded expedition, there most likely would be a company policy in effect dealing with unwarranted/reported modifications which could negate any insurance claims or reimbursement that the crew may receive as compensation for them fixing any damage that may have resulted from ship on ship combat or general wear and tear.
*cough* Knowledge: Business +7
I wouldn't be sure. The ship actually doesn't belong to Angel Industries. The company is a major shareholder in Far Star Trading Company which owns the ships. The bureocrats like to keep tabs on things but then again, Steve himself is a bit contemptous about them stepping on his toes so he lets the captains run things like they want and files reports and such when it suits him. He is one of the rare guys who actually has bravery to mess with mr. Angel. So I'd say Angel Industries don't have much knowledge about the ship actually, except that it has alien engines :D.

EDIT: Though it is clear it's not a stock AI :D. It did declare itself sentient afterall... Humans aren't advanced enough to build truly sentient computers, unless they develop some highly unlikely and strange glitches...

In Gaetanna's mind (remember she naively buys into her family's own propaganda), she probably thinks that Grandpa Vincent owns Far Star Trading and has Steve as a figurehead.

But then again, if she would have known that Angel Industries knew virtually nothing about the ship, she would take the incentive to delve into the ship's systems so she could deliver as much data as possible to Angel Industries so they could gain more of an upper hand when dealing with Steve (but more importantly so she could impress Grandpa and convince him to let her go home).

Of course, since I did say she would bluff if need be, she is obviously trying to get something out of this (the twisted satisfaction of having people admit that they were hiding info from her and forcing them to spill it EVEN THOUGH she knew what they were hiding).

LOL...thats a good way to get 'spaced' by the bunch of toughs running the ship. :P
 



The good thing is, I don't have to come up with a reason why she was "kicked out" of Unity. I just have to continue making her act the way she does and it automatically becomes apparent. She's like a rabid chihuahua, sooner or later it'll get punted.

If Dr. Phill existed in the Game';s universe, Gaetanna would have been put on his show (and then sent to a "reality check boot camp) ages ago.
