THE SCENARIO HAS ENDED! I'll update the post with a few juicy details when I have some time. Thank you all who participated!
SCENARIO UPDATE: I ran out of fuel!!! Unfortunately, that makes the "drifting in supercruise" aspect of the scenario kind of impossible, so now I'm changing the objective to "guess my location, post it here, win the prize" ... Also it would be nice if someone could bring me a little fuel?
Scenario Details (old)
I’ve often thought about using ED as a role-playing aid, so I'm running this little experiment to test those waters. The only catch is that I’m also trying to get some housework done, so I’ll be AFK on and off. If I’m not around when you show up, simply complete the objective as you see fit and I’ll make sure you get the reward (I'm recording). It's lazy GMing I know, but sadly I don't have time to play damsel all night.
- For this scenario, no hostile action will be taken against attackers (i.e. if you’ve ever wanted to gank a vette with a sidewinder, now’s your chance)
- I've left clues to my present location in both mission objectives below, and I will stay logged into Open until I'm found (I will update this post if I need to log out prior).
- If you figure out what system I'm in, please don't ruin the fun and post it here
. Seriously, just come kill me and get some fat stacks of cash.
- MISSION OBJECTIVE: The first player (or wing) to find me, pull me out of supercruise, and either destroy my ship (the Atonement) or repair it with a repair limpet ends the mission.
- Destroying the ship will net you with a 65,000,000 bounty (I've recently been informed that commanders can only collect up to 2,000,000 credits in bounty for another player? Booooo...), redeemable at any Boman Comany starport!
- Repairing my ship will grant you a BONUS MYSTERY PRIZE redeemable at Celebi Installation in Negri at a time of your choosing.
Thanks for anyone who participates, and have fun!
Don’t forget a FSD interdictor regardless of which option you choose, and possibly some limpets if you side with Boman Co!
Operation Lemon Aid
Code:
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| INCOMING DISTRESS SIGNAL |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| This is Commander Brokunn of the Lemon Slice Organization, requesting emergency |
| assistance. |
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Corrupt entities within the Boman Company have placed a significant bounty on my head. |
| I managed to escape a recent sortie, but my frame shift drive has been crippled. |
| Strangely, I appear to be stuck in supercruise, slowly circling the horizon of a |
| planet... unable to jump to any nearby systems. |
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| I need someone to find me, pull me out of cruise, and patch up my ship. Catch is, |
| I can’t broadcast my location, or my assailants will swarm. All I can tell you |
| is that “I’m circling a hard place, stuck between lots of rocks". Sadly, I can’t |
| offer as much as Boman is paying for my head, but if anyone can get me out of this |
| scrap, I’ll singa number-one song about you. o7 |

Operation StupidFaceBomanCo
Code:
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| High Priority Assassination Mission |
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| We are in active pursuit of the war criminal Commander Brokunn. Intel reports his ship |
| was severely damaged in a recent encounter, however, his allies held us off long enough |
| we were unable to scan his wake signal. Fortunately for us the fool made a grave error |
| by announcing to the entire cluster that he’s stranded: he can only have jumped roughly |
| 25LY away from Negri. |
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Solve his ridiculous riddle, find him, destroy the Atonement and all of it’s cargo. |
| You receive 65,000,000 credits for the job, and Boman Company will remind this upstart |
| who runs Negri. |
