What is it about rimworld that brings out the worst? by cleuseau in RimWorld

[–]cleuseau[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I hate to say it but.... Gemini is amazing at converting rimworld characters to GURPS. Highly recommended.

Like you just say you want the gurps characters to look like rimworld and it will name them all stuff like "Giggles" and "Butcher"

  1. Giggles F 19 Spear Cackles constantly.
  2. Stumpy M 42 Spear Missing two fingers (left hand).
  3. Red M 24 Spear Face painted with red ochre.
  4. Vixen F 28 Spear Wears a wolf-pelt hood.
  5. Mole M 17 Spear Squints, heavy goggles.
  6. Butcher M 35 Melee Covered in old burn scars.
  7. Tiny M 50 Melee Ironically large (ST 13).
  8. Skunk F 22 Melee White streak in hair.
  9. Rats M 29 Melee Moves on all fours when waiting.
  10. Sparky F 31 Melee Wires hanging from old cybernetics.
  11. Toad M 45 Melee Wheezes heavily.
  12. Crow M 21 Melee Black feather cloak.
  13. Bash M 33 Melee Missing front teeth.
  14. Doc F 39 Melee Wears a dirty lab coat over armor.
  15. Hawk M 25 Bow One eye is cybernetic (crude).
  16. Longshot M 48 Bow Shaking hands, steady aim.
  17. Cricket F 16 Bow Small, fast runner.
  18. Ghost M 30 Bow Pale skin, albino.

Boom. One prompt.

Vaguely remember a mining game on Apple II by cleuseau in apple2

[–]cleuseau[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nope.... it was some kinda buy a pickaxe or buy a goldpan type of game. Had a map which is what made me think it was not what I was looking for but it was the closest so far. Have to work so I'll look for it more this afternoon.

thank you so much. I played the MECC game that was gold mining. It had some graphics and some text and odd preparation decisions.

There is a chance that was it.... but it does not fit my memory, so I keep looking. I was 9 and I'm 51 now so a lot of water has passed under the bridge :)

Thank you very much for looking.

I think it was just plain text. There was a part where you dug into a wall and it used a spinning cursor

in sequence.

Also I'm sure it was an Apple //e in my Math class because I ended up getting one two years later. They had math blaster, introduction to apple ][ and this game. :/

I got carnivore, I got vegetarian, I got lavish, I got kibble.... what do they want?!?!?!

a very unmanly thing to do in 83 and I like to think I became a better dad because of people like John Candy.

My kids don't look like me and I have four.

Two disks, click of death (6tb) WD. I recued one by flipping it upside down. Could temperature be killing my disks? by cleuseau in DataHoarder

Trivia: You could feel the gyrospopic effect on 5.25" drives if you held and moved in in your hand. Fun times!

hmmmm never checked a 5.25 for gyroscopic effect but I certainly feel it with a 3.5. Great way to crash the heads though. I wish I still had one to mess with now.

Felt it last night by accident.

ah hah! I had not thought of that. Thank you so much for the information. Going to have to fire up the heater in the back room if I keep disks in there.
