Hypotheticals for ep.121!
Added 2022-12-22 11:27:53 +0000 UTCIt's the last Hat Chat of the year, so let's go out with a BOMBSHELL.
Sorry about the length of option 3, it's really important to get all the details ok?
1 Death takes a holiday and leaves earth for a thousand years. how does this change mankind?
2 You're an entrepreneur with the ability to freeze time for just your employees (not you). What is your business plan?
3 You are part of the crew of the iron thread, an experimental space craft traveling between the fabric of reality trying to discover alternative worlds.
Due to the unique time flow of the fabric a one month journey on the outside is 980 year on the inside so the crew has to sleep in stasis chambers which contain 100 stasis pods each.
Because of the limited nature of supplies especially the food most of the crew sleeps only having maintenance teams of a hundred wake up every decade to maintain the ship and fix any damage to go back to sleep a month later.
However when you awake you discover that not only has none of the maintenance been done by the prior team but
- 1: the drains are clogged
- 2: half the food has been spoiled due to been left out of its stasis pod
- 3: the upstairs bathrooms are flooded with water
- 4: exposed electrical wires have been ripped from the walls and left all over the place
- 5: the primary fuel tank has had several gaping holes in it and someone has tried to plug the holes with food
- 6: the records and security footage has all been deleted
- 7: the Med bay has been ransacked and most of its supplies have been damaged
- 8: the airlock wasn’t properly sealed so a third of the ship has been ripped off and sent into the fabric.
- 9: the flight console is damaged and sticky
- 10: most of the e cells which you use to power your equipment are nowhere to be found and the ones you can find are either destroyed or haven’t been charged since their last use ten years ago so you won’t be able to use them for a day.
- 11: the damage to the wiring has caused the stasis pods in two of the chambers to malfunction meaning some people are dropped out of stasis but remain asleep causing them to waste away, while others remain in stasis but are awoken meaning they can’t move, speak or have access to any of their senses they just exist in a void for upwards of a century.
- Your team have to decide what to do and lots of ideas are thrown around but ultimately the choice falls to you what do you decide on.

I feel like there is still not enough details for Alex.
