The biodome will probably(?) counter food shortages once we get it going, so do we want risk dealing with the food shortages and focus on another goal?

font, EF seems to be taking that request or in-thread thinking out loud as an order.

Maybe? I've considered the idea that they may require a "rest" period after this project, so would have to sit out the next project.

Just curious but why are we in a hurry? I'm not exactly sure the effects of skipping food but didn't EF say there were consequences for not eating today?

I think maybe once the biodome is up we probably won't have to do the supply run thing as much (altho that's a complete guess it makes sense).

(I keep picturing all of us going to the Mars Taco Bell for these supplies. I mean there's gotta be one here, right?)

Meaning if voting turns towards working on next project instead of gathering supplies?

I wonder how that works, since there's no current action to assign people to the next project, but it could potentially also be finished today?

-_- It had a question mark.

If Schmidty doesn't show up toDay, will he be replaced? If not, I am very reluctant to devote any resources to him.

I would like the various elected officials to be a little more openly honest about their options and abilities.

You realize you excluded me from that list... right? I have physical strength.

Mostly everyone on the list is either good/great at engineering, or great physical strength. You and I have likely similar physical strength (both good), and little engineering skills. It would be terrible to put both of us on the project, and putting us both on the list possibly just splits votes. Since I am a farmer, and that experience may be useful in the establishing the BioDome, I don't think you'd be valuable to the project. No offense - I'm sure there will be plenty of roles more appropriate to you in the future.

I don't like the idea of just two working on Schmidty in case one of our fine doctors is working against us. I have no reason to suspect any at this point in the game, but having 3 working on him feels safer to me.

Well, we have at least three medical folks. If we use two and Schmidt dies, we can just gas both the doctors and know we have a safe one in reserve

That is probably a good point, does the comm equipment do more than just talking to Earth? I don't see communicating with Earth as a real priority. We know we have someone that shouldn't be here, and yes Earth can probably assist in that to a degree. But beyond that, what else can communicating with Earth do for us in this colony?

If the equipment is only for communicating with Earth and given the labor/time constraints we are under, I don't see this as a valuable project in the first few days.

If this equipment is also used by the colonists, then my opinion changes and this is a huge resource that we need ASAP.

That's a good point JAG, we will likely need engineering help if we build something like the medical or research facility.

I was wrong I looked back at the item list and it doesn't say anything about colonists using it to communicate with each other. I still assume that it is important but maybe not the most important thing.

For the biodome, did anyone have a background in construction? That might be a good candidate to assist in the build in the event there are skills we are not aware of involved in completing these tasks.

I too wondered if this was just communication with Earth-I think EF said it was earlier this afternoon? (too lazy to go check)

as for the doctors and biodome workers, the leaders of each staff involved with them have already announced who they would like to be working with them, so I say "President" Fontisan go with them and officially appoint them unless she has some objections.

UNVOTE Next Project

VOTE Gather Supplies

I know I originally said I wanted to get the Research Center done second, but the more I'm thinking about it, the more I think we should HAVE some supplies, especially food. I'm not sure what the consequences of a food shortage are (some of us not surviving? Starving? Needing more medical attention?) But I don't want to find out.

Good point, another decent argument for today's project to be government, which of all the available projects probably requires the least, if any, input from engineers.

Autumn and Chief Rum to Healing Schmidty

Two strong engineering types for the biodome, with a physical back-up in case that's important.

I'm tempted to take one of the two people off of Schmidty. Thoughts?

I can see the case for leaving two with him. We don't know the extent of his injuries, or what his health level has dropped to. Then again, we still haven't heard hide or hair of Schmidty since before landing on the planet.

Is it unreasonable to say that we could let him go?

Physical.

Our engineers don't have significant physical stats, and it's possible that there's a physical component necessary to get the Biodome up and running. JAG has a high physical stat. If we agree that physical is unlikely to come into play, then I'll replace him with Jackal.

I'm an engineer. I don't let emotion cloud my thinking. This is a serious operation in an alien territory that no other group of humans have survived in successfully. If someone is not at their absolute best from the get-go, especially when we don't currently have the medical facilities, why try and save them when the resources can be better used elsewhere.

Call me callous, but one less person means an easier rationing of food and supplies, living space, etc.

We don't even know anything about Schmidty at this point. It's as if he hasn't existed at all to this point. Sure, he landed on Mars with us, but he has contributed nothing to the cause.

"Here is a comprehensive list of people that have the skills to do the biodome" - conveniently leaves me off list because I have the skills as them. Um... ok.

Schmidty has been injured. He is currently in critical condition and in need of treatment.

Critical condition and with no medical facility. I would not recommend less than two people. In a situation where we have some who is MIA, I prefer to plan that the person in question will show up or be replaced and so we should try to save them if it's possible.

I agree. As much as it stinks he isn't here right now he is still an asset. We can always heal him up and use him as a supply gatherer or a builder. I also think it will be a good idea to get a gauge on how well our doctors are going to be at healing without a medical facility.
