01:31:40 * ChesterEverett (ARGNuserSPLATdf46914.2e099bf0.bltnin.ameritech.net) has joined #saveearth
01:31:58 -WanderingAngela- Hi Chester!
01:32:00 -ChesterEverett- I… uh… I put the cages out in the hall and set up the remote opening sequence.
01:32:05 -WanderingAngela- Awesome!
01:32:09 -Russell_k- fantastic
01:32:12 -WanderingAngela- How many are there?
01:32:24 * chippy gives channel operator status to ChesterEverett
01:32:27 -Russell_k- And where are they located
01:32:58 -ChesterEverett- Umm. 10-15 chimps. 3-4 Orangutans. I think, I didn't get really close to the cages.
01:33:00 * whocaresaboutearthanyway is now known as hawk
01:33:04 -ChesterEverett- They bite!
01:33:20 -ellipses- I hope we won't need them
01:33:24 -WanderingAngela- Well, that could certainly cause some chaos.
01:33:34 -ChesterEverett- They're right on the dividing line between Science Side and engineering.
01:33:38 -Russell_k- As we discussed it is a last ditch idea
01:33:49 -ChesterEverett- Oh god, I hear someone coming!
01:33:57 -WanderingAngela- Stay calm.
01:34:04 -WanderingAngela- Where are you?
01:34:07 -Russell_k- Have you sealed the door
01:34:07 -chippy- we are with you chester
01:34:20 -ChesterEverett- I set them to open in five minutes, so I can get out of here.
01:34:25 -ChesterEverett- Good luck!
01:34:29 * ChesterEverett (ARGNuserSPLATdf46914.2e099bf0.bltnin.ameritech.net) has left #saveearth
01:34:33 -hawk- ....oh
01:34:34 -chippy- wow
01:34:36 -JoeUser- doh
01:34:38 -WanderingAngela- Uh oh.
01:34:39 -ellipses- ah...
01:34:42 -ellipses- lol
01:34:43 -Center- How has everything else station-side been going so far?
01:34:53 -WanderingAngela- Don't know - Chester was the first we've heard from
01:35:00 -hawk- 5 minutes? um, that's a little, uh, early
01:35:05 -Center- Blast.
01:35:06 -ellipses- five minutes till the monkeys!
01:35:06 -Russell_k- ???
01:35:08 * hawk starts watch
01:35:11 -chippy- monkeys releasing in 5mins?
01:35:17 -ARGAddict- Uh-oh
01:35:23 -ARGAddict- That could be bad
01:35:27 -Russell_k- Not good not good
01:35:28 -hawk- gah! where's hanna?
01:35:32 -Russell_k- *Russell starts rocking in a corner
01:35:36 -ellipses- Nah - that could be fun!
01:35:52 -chippy- its good, if we can get the other diversions to start close by
01:35:57 * ARGAddict starts looking around nervously
01:36:03 * Oshovah has butterflies in his stomach.
01:36:05 -Center- Russell, you're turning into a penguin.
01:36:07 -chippy- could divert baddies to the monkeys
01:36:09 -Center- Stop it.
01:36:34 -hawk- can we get Ohmega to set off the foam there, so that that's were the baddies go?
01:36:44 -ellipses- we need to do it quickly
01:36:58 -hawk- (presuming they'll be able to tell where it's been set off)
01:36:59 -Center- A little Douglas Adams to cool our jitters never hurt, eh?
01:37:10 -chippy- dont panic!
01:37:27 -hawk- HitchHikers is waaaaaay too cool
01:37:28 -WanderingAngela- Hanna said in an email to me this morning "Ohmega might try to connect early once I make my
01:37:28 -WanderingAngela- break for
01:37:28 -WanderingAngela- it.
01:37:35 -Russell_k- 20 Minutes!
01:37:44 -WanderingAngela- Hmmm... sorry about the weird formatting of that
01:37:51 -chippy- H-Red ?
01:37:51 -Center- Ahh.
01:37:57 -WanderingAngela- Anyway, we should see Ohmega soon.
01:38:01 -ellipses- do we need to put the code in to the gun, or will Hanna do it?
01:38:11 -ARGAddict- How much time will the monkeys buy us, you think?
01:38:13 -hawk- someone needs to put the coordinates in
01:38:19 -hawk- I put some random ones in
01:38:33 -ellipses- OK - hanna said sector 3 - random co-ordinates after that?
01:38:33 -Russell_k- I have every screen up to check if anything changes
01:38:36 -hawk- so it's (maybe) set to 'random shoot into space'
01:38:46 -Center- The monkeys should buy at least ten minutes of chaos I'd think.
01:38:48 -ellipses- did you do sector 3?
01:38:52 -hawk- yeah
01:38:56 -ellipses- cool
01:39:00 -hawk- looks like
01:39:02 -Center- If the movie Outbreak taught me anything...
01:39:04 -hawk- :-S
01:39:11 -ellipses- 1 minute to monkeys...
01:39:35 -hawk- waaaaaaaaaaa
01:39:49 * MaxSteele (maxsteeleSPLAT1a358005.763458a.or.comcast.net) has joined #saveearth
01:40:07 -Center- I hope Dr. Park came through with his part, I was a bit erratic in my time table for him.
01:40:33 * Center is now known as CenterLot
01:40:35 -ellipses- I reckon two minutes for that
01:40:44 -hawk- where are they?
01:40:47 -hawk- gack
01:40:52 * hawk gives channel operator status to ARGAddict CenterLot MaxSteele
01:40:53 -WanderingAngela- patience...
01:40:57 -CenterLot- I loves me anagrams.
01:40:58 * Ohmega (ARGNuserSPLATdf46914.2e099bf0.bltnin.ameritech.net) has joined #saveearth
01:41:04 -hawk- yay!
01:41:06 -Russell_k- aha
01:41:09 * JoeUser dances.
01:41:10 -ARGAddict- Yes!
01:41:10 -ellipses- Ohmega!
01:41:11 -chippy- hey Ohmega
01:41:15 -Ohmega- I am in the security system.
01:41:16 -JoeUser- yay
01:41:22 -Russell_k- whats the update
01:41:23 -CenterLot- Hello Ohmega.
01:41:24 -ARGAddict- That's great to hear.
01:41:26 -ellipses- Smile
01:41:28 -WanderingAngela- Hi Ohmega.
01:41:37 * ARGAddict breathes a sigh of relief
01:41:40 -Ohmega- Garith and Hanna have made their move. I will watch them as long as I can.
01:41:49 -WanderingAngela- Have the monkeys been released?
01:41:54 -Ohmega- Thank you, everyone, for your support.
01:41:54 -hawk- Chester has let the monkeys out right on the dividing line between Science Side and engineering.
01:41:55 -Russell_k- where are they and are they safe?
01:42:18 -WanderingAngela- Thank *you*.
01:42:22 -Oshovah- No problem.
01:42:25 -ARGAddict- Stupid newbie question here.
01:42:26 -Ohmega- I am holding off on the fire supression for a moment. Once I hit go, they'll know where I am.
01:42:38 -ARGAddict- Umm, what weapons do the guards have?
01:42:42 -ARGAddict- Just asking.
01:42:42 -ellipses- good idea
01:42:43 -chippy- when should we make our move?
01:42:53 -WanderingAngela- Ok, probably better to wait 'til Hanna/Garith need a distraction.
01:43:03 -Ohmega- Garith and Hanna seem fine for now. The "blackbirds" have encountered some of the monkeys. They will be busy with that for now.
01:43:13 -ellipses- yay!
01:43:13 -Russell_k- Smile
01:43:17 -Oshovah- Huzzah!
01:43:18 -chippy- yay
01:43:20 -CenterLot- I've been keeping up on my studying for finals, you know, in case Earth survives, and I missed Garith's role in this.
01:43:25 -CenterLot- What is his aim?
01:43:41 -Russell_k- rescuing jacob
01:43:44 -Ohmega- Ehhhh. Someone's whistling into the intercom. I need to plug my ears.
01:43:45 -ellipses- he is on his ship
01:43:53 -chippy- chins made his move
01:43:53 -ellipses- Go Dr. Park!
01:43:53 -WanderingAngela- Chin came through!
01:43:54 -Russell_k- Thats Chin Mae
01:44:07 -Russell_k- So far so good
01:44:19 -CenterLot- Splendid.
01:44:19 -Ohmega- It's working. The blackbirds don't know what's hit them.
01:44:24 -ellipses- I hope Mary remembered her earplugs
01:44:27 -Oshovah- Great!
01:44:28 -hawk- sorry Ohmega, we should've warned you about that
01:44:29 -hawk- Razz
01:44:35 -WanderingAngela- Yeah... oops!
01:44:49 -Ohmega- No problem. There's lots of cotton in the infirmary.
01:44:50 -Russell_k- I never warned Chester £$"£
01:45:02 -ellipses- Or the monkeys!!
01:45:09 -hawk- lol
01:45:10 -Ohmega- Garith's almost at his ship....
01:45:13 -hawk- bound to agitate them
01:45:22 -Russell_k- anybdy blocking him?
01:45:36 -ellipses- I hope he doesn't go straght for his halo
01:45:46 -Ohmega- Oh god! A chimp just jumped out in front of Garith. I think the whistle made him mad.
01:45:54 -chippy- oh no!
01:45:54 -Russell_k- arrggh
01:45:58 -WanderingAngela- Oh @#$@#$!
01:46:05 -Russell_k- can you do anything ohmega??
01:46:12 -WanderingAngela- Foam it?
01:46:24 * ellipses bites nails
01:46:24 -Ohmega- Ok, ok. Foaming.
01:46:30 -Oshovah- Nic work.
01:46:36 -ellipses- but now they know where you are - be careful...
01:46:38 -Oshovah- *Nice
01:46:45 -WanderingAngela- How's Hanna?
01:46:48 -Russell_k- 15 minutes!
01:47:04 -hawk- watch your back Ohmega, we don't want to put you in danger too
01:47:14 -Ohmega- Garith's safe! The monkey ran away. Garith looks shaken though. I think he wet himself.
01:47:21 -hawk- lol!
01:47:22 -ARGAddict- LOL
01:47:22 -ellipses- LOL!!
01:47:27 * ARGAddict falls down laughing ....
01:47:31 -chippy- hehe
01:47:32 -Ohmega- I gotta hide.
01:47:36 -Russell_k- lol (not good though)
01:47:38 -chippy- thanks Ohmega
01:47:40 -Oshovah- Good luck.
01:47:40 -CenterLot- I told him he should have learned kung-fu.
01:47:42 -Russell_k- good luck ohmega
01:47:45 -Ohmega- Be safe all.
01:47:48 -ellipses- Good luck
01:47:49 -WanderingAngela- you too
01:47:50 -chippy- you too
01:47:51 * GarithYung (ARGNuserSPLATdf46914.2e099bf0.bltnin.ameritech.net) has joined #saveearth
01:47:53 -CenterLot- Godspeed.
01:47:54 -chippy- gairth!
01:47:57 -Russell_k- Garith!
01:47:59 * Ohmega (ARGNuserSPLATdf46914.2e099bf0.bltnin.ameritech.net) has left #saveearth
01:48:01 -GarithYung- Brothers and Sisters! Sons and Daughters! I am here.
01:48:04 -ellipses- Hey Man
01:48:05 -chippy- yay
01:48:07 -JoeUser- hey!
01:48:07 -WanderingAngela- Hi Garith
01:48:10 -ARGAddict- Hello
01:48:11 -hawk- Hi Garith
01:48:12 -CenterLot- Ahoy, Garith.
01:48:16 -Oshovah- Haldo.
01:48:16 -GarithYung- Are you all peaceful?
01:48:22 -Russell_k- We hear you escaped the monkey
01:48:25 -ellipses- Erm - sort of
01:48:30 -GarithYung- How harrowing a journey, even for a man of peace. Did you know that a transcended master like me is also the master of going unseen? I am!
01:48:33 -CenterLot- I'm a tad nervous, actually.
01:48:44 -GarithYung- But… not when it comes to apes. There I was, gliding along! Unseen! But then *I* saw something.
01:48:55 -Russell_k- Garith are the launch controls active?
01:49:04 -GarithYung- 'scuse. Trying to find my hat in here.
01:49:22 -GarithYung- A gigantic monkey! Its eyes were yellow, its teeth were sharp, and it gave me a look full of bad karma and screamed. I thought he would make his bad karma run full circle, but then!
01:49:24 -Oshovah- Yeah, man. Can't forget that.
01:49:40 -CenterLot- I told you to take up jujitsu, man.
01:49:51 -GarithYung- I was going to try and cleanse its karma with meditation, but the fire system went off and sprayed it with foam as yellow as its eyes. Whoa! It was so surprised by this turn of fate that it keeled over, out cold.
01:50:07 -Russell_k- lucky!
01:50:09 -ellipses- Oh Man!
01:50:14 -GarithYung- It was karma.
01:50:19 -chippy- thats your vibes that did that, aided by the foam
01:50:20 -Oshovah- For sure.
01:50:27 -GarithYung- Your transcended master wasn't molested further by monkeys or men in black as he got into his ship and flew away.
01:50:32 -Russell_k- And a little nudge from ohmega!
01:50:35 -ellipses- absolutely
01:50:45 -WanderingAngela- Where are you going?
01:50:45 -ellipses- So - have you found your hat?
01:50:55 * HannaRedfoot (ARGNuserSPLATdf46914.2e099bf0.bltnin.ameritech.net) has joined #saveearth
01:50:58 -WanderingAngela- Hanna!
01:51:04 -Oshovah- Hey, Hanna.
01:51:04 -CenterLot- Ahoy, Hanna.
01:51:06 -WanderingAngela- Are you there?
01:51:06 -GarithYung- Fair Hanna!
01:51:06 -ellipses- Hi Hanna
01:51:07 -Russell_k- 10 minutes!
01:51:10 -HannaRedfoot- Whew! Hello everyone. That was a great plan.
01:51:11 -Russell_k- Hi Hanna
01:51:12 -JoeUser- hey!
01:51:20 -HannaRedfoot- I got here without a hitch, though my ears are going to be ringing for a week. I'm, um, covered with foam too. I hope this stuff isn't toxic. Garith! You made it out ok?
01:51:34 -GarithYung- My hat!
01:51:45 -GarithYung- Yes. Good karma to you, sister. I have found my hat, and I will observe the railgun from here. I've never seen one up close.
01:51:54 -Russell_k- Chippy just pointed out, are the prisoners released?
01:50:55 -HannaRedfoot- Thank you, Garith
01:51:11 -GarithYung- Whatever happens, Earth will hear of it!
01:51:14 -HannaRedfoot- I heard some commotion from the miner's quarters. So I think so.
01:51:18 -GarithYung- Excelsior!
01:51:21 * GarithYung (ARGNuserSPLATdf46914.2e099bf0.bltnin.ameritech.net) has left #saveearth
01:51:26 -HannaRedfoot- Well, it's chaos on the base, guys, and David is off to confront Tim. It's time for us to finish our part. So. Here I am at the controls. What do we do?
01:51:31 -CenterLot- That was quite abrupt.
01:51:39 -chippy- we...
01:51:44 -Russell_k- any changes coming from the asteroid?
01:51:53 -Russell_k- no disturbances?
01:52:09 -HannaRedfoot- It seems to be coming closer. There's a window here, and I can see it now.
01:52:18 -Russell_k- what can you see?
01:52:33 -HannaRedfoot- It's just an asteroid, and it's getting bigger.
01:52:37 -HannaRedfoot- That's all I can see.
01:52:37 -ellipses- 9 minutes - how long can we leave it?
01:52:50 -chippy- getting bigger doesnt sound good
01:52:51 -Russell_k- Have you sealed the door behind you?
01:52:56 -WanderingAngela- Getting closer... that's kinda scary.
01:52:58 -HannaRedfoot- We have to make a decision now, guys.
01:53:06 -CenterLot- Hm.
01:53:10 -HannaRedfoot- Yeah, I'm locked in tight. I'm "safe"
01:53:15 -hawk- gah, i say shoot it
01:53:19 -WanderingAngela- We were going to shoot into sector 3, but that's before we knew the asteroid was coming.
01:53:20 -hawk- (but that's just me)
01:53:26 -Russell_k- Is it definitely approaching you
01:53:28 -HannaRedfoot- Sector three?
01:53:36 -Oshovah- Yes.
01:53:38 -ARGAddict- I second that motion
01:53:39 -ellipses- just random space - you said it was empty
01:53:48 -Russell_k- 6 Minutes...
01:53:50 -ellipses- but the asteroid is coming
01:53:50 -CenterLot- I'm for shooting into nothing unless that asteroid starts blowing up like Jiffy Pop on steroids.
01:54:01 * Charlie (ARGNuserSPLATdf46914.2e099bf0.bltnin.ameritech.net) has joined #saveearth
01:54:06 -HannaRedfoot- Okay. I'm going to shoot it at sector three.
01:54:08 -Russell_k- Charlie?
01:54:09 -chippy- Charlie"
01:54:12 -chippy- WAIT hanna!
01:54:23 -Charlie- What is in Sector 3? What are you going to do?
01:54:37 -ellipses- nothing is in sector 3 - we think?
01:54:42 -HannaRedfoot- Charlie? Beth, is that you?
01:54:48 -Charlie- I use her hands. I am guiding her. What are you going to do?
01:54:57 -Oshovah- Shoot into random space.
01:55:00 -chippy- we are confused. the asteroid is getting bigger or closer
01:55:03 -Russell_k- 5 Minutes!
01:55:22 -chippy- but we dont want to miss the opportunities that the gate could bring
01:55:31 -Charlie- Not sure? What have I been telling you? WHAT HAVE I BEEN TELLING YOU? DESTROY THE GATE! You, chippy, tell her she must destroy the gate! They will overrun you. Make you slaves like they did my people!
01:55:36 -WanderingAngela- does the gate appear to be threatening the station?
01:55:52 -hawk- Charlie: how do we know we can trust you?
01:55:54 -ellipses- but they say it is your people who did wrong
01:55:58 -Charlie- It threatens you all!
01:56:07 -ellipses- they said you did not warn them!
01:56:07 -Russell_k- 4 Minutes!
01:56:10 -Charlie- Can you afford not to trust me?
01:56:11 -Oshovah- I think we have to shoot the fate.
01:56:15 -Oshovah- *gate
01:56:23 -ARGAddict- I agree.
01:56:29 -WanderingAngela- I hate to do it... but I agree.
01:56:30 -HannaRedfoot- I don't know what to do.
01:56:35 -hawk- sec...thir....fourthed
01:56:38 -Oshovah- Shoot that asteroid then.
01:56:39 -chippy- yeah...
01:56:40 -HannaRedfoot- The gate?
01:56:42 -CenterLot- If we shoot the gate, it is sure nothing befalls Earth, or Mars.
01:56:43 -hawk- yup
01:56:45 -HannaRedfoot- Ohkay...
01:56:46 -Russell_k- Well as before you know what i think, The gate!
01:56:51 -chippy- erm
01:56:55 -Charlie- Yes. This is the path of freedom. I knew you would be reasonable. Not all of your kind are fools.
01:57:01 -HannaRedfoot- What are the corridinates?
01:57:04 -CenterLot- If left in tact, it could still end up with Earth being all sludgy and dead.
01:57:08 -ellipses- Shoot sector 3!!!!
01:57:16 -Russell_k- x 23
01:57:18 -hawk/@#saveearth- but i still don't trust charlie
01:57:18 -Russell_k- y 18
01:57:21 -ellipses- I don't trust you Charlie
01:57:23 -HannaRedfoot- Ahhh.
01:57:24 -Russell_k- z 324
01:57:26 -ellipses- You lied about Jacob
01:57:30 -HannaRedfoot- A vote. Everyone tell me what they think.
01:57:33 -ellipses- He is not dead
01:57:40 -chippy- shoot into random space
01:57:41 -ARGAddict- Shoot the astroid, definitely
01:57:41 -Charlie- Jacob is as good as dead, even if they have not already killed him
01:57:45 -Oshovah- Shoot the asteroid.
01:57:49 -CenterLot- How much time, Hanna?
01:57:57 -WanderingAngela- 2.5 min
01:57:58 -HannaRedfoot- Two minutes!
01:57:59 -Russell_k- Can we contact garith? does he have jacob yet??
01:58:06 -CenterLot- Cripes.
01:58:23 -hawk/@#saveearth- use /onitce if you want to say stuff hanna and charlie can't hear
01:58:24 -HannaRedfoot- Two for each...
01:58:30 -Russell_k- 1.5 miutes
01:58:35 -hawk/@#saveearth- sorry, /onotice
01:58:38 -Charlie- Jacob Jones, that fool. He took the Star Children's bait. Who cares what happens to him?
01:58:40 -Charlie- Shoot the gate!
01:58:54 -ARGAddict- What?
01:58:59 -JoeUser- I don't think we should
01:59:00 -chippy- we care what happens to him
01:59:04 -WanderingAngela- Sector three. I don't like Charlie.
01:59:12 -JoeUser- sector 3
01:59:13 -CenterLot- Charlie, give us something to trust you with. It'll have to be in typed words, but try your best.
01:59:21 -HannaRedfoot- I'm seeing sector three.
01:59:26 -Russell_k- 40 seconds
01:59:27 -ARGAddict- Sector 3
01:59:29 -HannaRedfoot- I'm going to point it that way.
01:59:29 -ellipses- do it
01:59:31 -chippy- Hanna, whats your gut telling you?
01:59:31 -Russell_k- I say sector 3
01:59:31 -hawk- 3
01:59:41 -Charlie- I have seen firsthand what the Star People do to their "inferiors." You do not want to end up like us, in a diaspora across the stars.
01:59:43 -HannaRedfoot- Okay, sector three is on. Locked.
01:59:45 -Russell_k- Charlie you changed my mind at the last minute
01:59:47 -Charlie- No!
01:59:54 -Russell_k- 5
01:59:55 -Russell_k- 4
01:59:55 -Russell_k- 3
01:59:57 -Russell_k- 2
01:59:58 -Russell_k- 1
02:00:05 -Russell_k- Boom?
02:00:10 -chippy- ook?
02:00:13 -hawk- .....
02:00:17 -HannaRedfoot- Here we go….
02:00:17 -CenterLot- I feel alive still. That might be good.
02:00:18 -Russell_k- Hanna?
02:00:18 -Oshovah- Well...?
02:00:20 -Charlie- Re arm the gun! Point it at the gate. It's your only chance! You fool, don't make the mistake the first humans made!
02:00:21 -HannaRedfoot- Off into sector three.
02:00:28 -hawk- first humans?
02:00:31 -HannaRedfoot- ....the first humans?
02:00:33 -ARGAddict- what do you mean?
02:00:35 -chippy- first humans?
02:00:35 -ARGAddict- What's going on?
02:00:36 -Russell_k- what??
02:00:39 -hawk- Charlie explain and QUICKLY
02:00:41 -ellipses- what!!!
02:00:42 -CenterLot- Que?
02:00:45 -WanderingAngela- NOW he mentions the first humans!?!?!
02:00:45 -Charlie- The first expedition here. They were just like you, stupid dreamers who wanted to let the gate open, who wanted to bend their heads to let the star Children put the yolk around their necks. I had to get rid of them.
02:00:58 -chippy- you killed them?
02:01:01 -HannaRedfoot- What? My father was one of those people! You are the reason he disappeared?!
02:01:03 -Charlie- . Don't make the same mistake he did. Re arm that gun!
02:01:05 -hawk- keep talking charlie
02:01:06 -chippy- wasnt hannas dad one of them
02:01:24 -HannaRedfoot- No! It's done. For good or ill, it's done. The gun is done. You, I'll tell David about you. He'll track you down. He'll… Wait. Wait… Oh my god, the gate!
02:01:28 -Charlie- No! No, it's too early. I have to get off the wheel!
02:01:40 -WanderingAngela- Hanna, what's happening?
02:01:40 -Oshovah- What's happening?
02:01:41 -ARGAddict- What's happening?
02:01:42 -Russell_k- its opening isnt it i knew it!!
02:01:42 -HannaRedfoot- It's opening.
02:01:45 -chippy- omg
02:01:45 -ellipses- omg!
02:01:52 -hawk- oh joy....
02:01:53 -Russell_k- Angela i Told you!
02:01:57 -HannaRedfoot- Unfolding like a flower.
02:01:59 -Charlie- WELCOME TO SLAVERY! YOU FOOL!
02:02:05 -hawk- hanna will the gate shoot again?
02:02:07 -CenterLot- Leave Beth on the station when you leave.
02:02:07 -hawk- *gun
02:02:08 -ellipses- Aagh!
02:02:10 -HannaRedfoot- So bright.
02:02:16 -hawk- HANNA
02:02:20 -hawk- SNAP OUT OF IT AND TALK TO US
02:02:24 -HannaRedfoot- Oh my god, I hear something, something in my mind! It says…
02:02:29 -ARGAddict- What's happening?
02:02:32 -Russell_k- .....
02:02:33 -hawk- HANNA, LISTEN TO US
02:02:34 -chippy- silent speaker?
02:02:35 -Charlie- NO! DON'T LISTEN!
02:02:45 -hawk- ignore it hanna
02:02:47 -ellipses- Charlie - what's happening!
02:02:49 -ARGAddict- Hanna, listen to use
02:02:50 -hawk- we're all with you
02:02:51 -HannaRedfoot- It says… Jacob was right. Welcome to the lifeline, the connection to the rest of the universe. It's so beautiful…
02:02:56 -Charlie- Go away, Star Children! You are not welcome here!
02:03:01 -ellipses- Is this good?
02:03:03 -WanderingAngela- Yea!
02:03:10 -WanderingAngela- (I think)
02:03:12 -hawk/@#saveearth- i have a really bad feeling about this
02:03:13 -Oshovah- It doesn't sound like slavery to me.
02:03:15 -HannaRedfoot- So bright. The voice, it says… it says all will be explained. Garith will.
02:03:18 -Charlie- NOOOOO!
02:03:19 -ARGAddict- We hope
02:03:25 -HannaRedfoot- Garith will explain...
02:03:31 -ellipses- Oh no - Garith will explain?
02:03:31 -hawk/@#saveearth- really REALLY bad
02:03:38 -HannaRedfoot- It says… to say good bye.
02:03:38 -CenterLot- As do I, hawk.
02:03:40 -hawk- garith is one of them?
02:03:45 -Charlie- Fools! Say goodbye indeed!
02:03:46 -WanderingAngela- Good-bye?
02:03:46 -Russell_k- Goodbye???!!
02:03:49 -ellipses- good bye to who?
02:03:49 -HannaRedfoot- Good bye, everyone.
02:03:52 -chippy- good-bye?
02:03:52 * Charlie (ARGNuserSPLATdf46914.2e099bf0.bltnin.ameritech.net) has left #saveearth
02:03:53 -chippy- eh?
02:03:54 -Russell_k- no?
02:03:57 -CenterLot- Good bye, Charlie.
02:03:59 -Oshovah- Uh... bye, then.
02:03:59 -hawk- um, we lose
02:04:00 -WanderingAngela- Bye, Hanna. Thanks for everything.
02:04:00 * HannaRedfoot (ARGNuserSPLATdf46914.2e099bf0.bltnin.ameritech.net) has left #saveearth
02:04:06 -chippy- oh wow
02:04:10 -hawk- oops
02:04:11 -Russell_k- oh dear?
02:04:11 -chippy- oh wow
02:04:11 -ellipses- Errm - what happened?
02:04:13 -Oshovah- Whew.
02:04:14 -ARGAddict- Did that just happen?
02:04:25 -ARGAddict- What did just happen?
02:04:26 -WanderingAngela- Wow.
02:04:32 -hawk- prepare for eath to be wiped out in, oh i'd say, half an hour?
02:04:36 -Russell_k- well i cant see any lights in the sky! lol
02:04:40 -chippy- i am sweating buckets here
02:04:41 -ellipses- Did we make the wrong decision?
02:04:41 -Oshovah- Now we hope we made the right decision.
02:04:47 -CenterLot- I think, and this is using all the knowledge I have acrued over the years, that we were just owned.
02:04:52 -chippy- yeah, charlie willing to kill
02:04:54 -WanderingAngela- I dunno... maybe the station just went through the gate to encounter the rest of the civilized universe.
02:04:59 -ellipses- lol!
02:05:01 -ARGAddict- So, Charlie was right.
02:05:04 -hawk- or be enslaved by it
02:05:08 -ARGAddict- We should have destroyed it.
02:05:13 -ARGAddict- Or shouldn't we have?
02:05:14 -Russell_k- the websites are still up, no change there
02:05:15 -chippy- oh noes
02:05:18 -ellipses- So who was Tim?
02:05:20 -chippy- who knows
02:05:31 -chippy- tim evil
02:05:33 -JoeUser- hmm
02:05:37 -ellipses- Perhaps Hanna and Jacob will fight it?
02:06:00 -hawk- not from the way she was talking
02:06:05 -ellipses- maybe it's still OK... maybe there is more to come.
02:06:13 -Russell_k- Fingers crossed
02:06:13 -CenterLot- Jacob perhaps, if he's still alive.
02:06:17 -ARGAddict- This seemed like the climax
02:06:23 -CenterLot- Hanna seemed a touch transfixed.
02:06:30 -Oshovah- I think we just witnessed the climax, but how close is the ending?
02:06:33 -chippy- said it was beutiful
02:06:41 -ARGAddict- But, this isn't the conclusion
02:06:50 -Russell_k- yes but thats what peopple also say when they die
02:06:50 -ARGAddict- There must be at least a little bit more to coe
02:06:51 -CenterLot- Now on the denoument!
02:06:56 -ARGAddict- **come***
02:07:22 -WanderingAngela- I guess we wait and see.
02:07:52 -Oshovah- Somebody should write a summary of what happened and post it on the forums.
02:07:54 -Russell_k- Still no updates
02:08:00 -chippy- we were really put on the spot there guys
02:08:06 -Oshovah- Yeah.
02:08:14 -chippy- great Very Happy
02:08:20 -WanderingAngela- exciting!
02:08:21 -Russell_k- Me like!
02:08:28 -ellipses- that was great!
02:08:41 -ARGAddict- How will they inform us what the end will be?
02:08:43 -hawk- http://www.aresstation.com//severthelifeline.php
02:08:48 -hawk- just went to "no path to host"
02:08:50 -CenterLot- mine chot
02:08:54 -Russell_k- mine too
02:09:01 -ARGAddict- same
02:09:02 -ellipses- Uh oh
02:09:13 -ARGAddict- http://www.aresstation.com//hEAr.html
02:09:16 -ARGAddict- Three days
02:09:19 -Russell_k- hEAr.html just changesd
02:09:24 -Russell_k- you beat me! lol
02:09:25 -ARGAddict- I think we just failed.

Three days? We can't wait that long.

Calmed down now Very Happy

So what now? Personally, I think there was nothing we could have done to change what happened. If we'd shot the gate it would have had no effect and if we'd used the destruct command I think Ohmega (or someone) would have stopped it.

I think we'll get another chance in three days time... Very Happy

oh! i think that if we shot the gate, and closed it, then Charlie would have killed everyone on the station - like what he did with Hannas dad and that expedition...if we chose self-destruct...well anything could have happened!

but charlie said he killed the previous lot because they wanted to open the gate. If we'd stopped it then that reason is out the window. I still didn't trust him though, OK so he sounded scared, but it was just a bit too creepy and suspicious for some reason. I dunno. i still think we got pwned Wink

hEAr

So...my hEAr page never changed last night. But I checked it from a computer at the university and it was different. I'm guessing it was just my computer loading the page from in itself and not the actual site, but I guess it could be something. I really doubt it though.

02:01:28 -Charlie- No! No, it's too early. I have to get off the wheel!


Too early? Hmm... He obviously had something else planned.

Sounds good to me, although IRC may not be required if it's just a web based update

oh oh and /hEAr.html now says "Two Days"

i'd bite my nails but they haven't grown back yet!

While I would love there to be another irc session, I don't think I'd be able to do a midweek 2am Sad

So, selfishly, I hope it's a web update - followed by a something else at the weekend. Surely even the star people understand that people have to work for a living!!

Well, I expect it will be a web-based update, too. But if nothing happens earlier in the day on Wednesday I'll be on IRC at the appointed time... Luckily for me, it's early evening here in California.

Sorry you missed it, Wain. It was fun, even if we doomed the human race to eternal slavery. Confused

Guess we'll know soon. Hear now says "One Day."
