UAs, Barnacles and other mysteries Thread 8 - The Canonn

[Deerjesus]

To clarify.

There was an issue with the first phase of the hunt, this latest clue should help solve that.

Elements of the hunt will require you to be in open, but you will have multiple chances to get the clues yourself.

Great, hopefully this turns out well and inspires some more Open only events.

Only another 22 minutes till the ship arrives. =p

I think my voice might be drowned out by four of five people repeatedly posting, "waaaaaah. Why is it in open" but I like that some of this is happening in open. I think it's super cool that Frontier employees are taking the roles of characters in-game. It's like a live action roleplay game. I'd love to see more of this type of interaction. It's better than some static NPC that can never die or move, handing out info like a robot.
Chill out people.

How many imperials does it take to screw in a light bulb?

They don't have lightbulbs they see via the light of burning slaves

They don't have lightbulbs they see via the light of burning slaves

Trick question. You're trying to trip us up. Thargoids don't use lightbulbs. They burn humans as living torches to light their city streets.

Thargoids were Imperials all along, confirmed.

A Thargoid with a duck on his head walks into the bar at Jacques Station. Jacques says, "Can I help you?". The duck says, "Yeah, get this Thargoid off my a--!"

"So long and thanks for all the fish!"

Is a Fish Unit anything like a Fish Finger?

Or is that a Fish Digit?

 

[Cmdr. Cyrano Buckminster]

A Thargoid with a duck on his head walks into the bar at Jacques Station. Jacques says, "Can I help you?". The duck says, "Yeah, get this Thargoid off my a--!"

So Jacques hands the duck a tube of Preparation T.

How do we know it's happening at 15:00?

The worse thing about all of this is not being sure if the ship is going to spawn in the same instance as you.
