Susie

Post by Nort The Fragrent » Wed, 28. Feb 18, 19:12

Susie,

Poor Susie is still waiting for her parents to arrive, this I think is a galactic crime of neglect.

I have been in the x verse for an age, and poor Susie has not found her parents!

Can anyone shed some light on this catastrophe.
How old is Susie now?
What has she been up to all these years?
Has she got children of her own?

Can anyone fill in the blanks here.

Has she evolved into a completely new race?

Moved from X3TC/AP Tech Sp.

This has been considered a few times before. She even had her own concern thread for X4. :wink:

She was even mentioned in the fanfiction section once or twice. :roll:

Thank you for the info, but what of the answers!
Is she to have eternal life? And be still waiting in X4.
Has anyone got a picture of her?
she might be the girl of my dreams!

Her parents suffered from some pretty severe deformities. They were mistaken for animals, and being not chained were immediately vaporized.

Last I heard she isn't even a girl but a sophisticated robot working for a scammer to siphon money from caring people.

Forgive my ignorance, I am but fresh out of the shell. !

This my 15th hatching, yet my first in a forum, so had not realized the orange text is a link.

This however is not going to deter me from pursuing the girl of my dreams. Is Susie the queen of the Susicidel ships who crash into us close to the jump gates?
I have read that her parents are also lost, is this hereditary, if so would explain why she has not been clamed.
I am proposing to start a charity to help the apparently large number of lost Susie's. and to give them a better start in the upcoming X4 .
If we generate a large enough partition the creators will have no choice but to establish the Susie found-ation.
A Convent station, where Susie's are rehabilitated to become cold hearted killers, that pry on the gun slinging red ships.
The Convent ship's can be white, and have a ghostly transparences glow about them. They are fast and appear out from nowhere. To come to the assistance of the poor trader who is constantly under attack.
And once Susie has dispatched the red's, She gives the saved pilot a nice polite message.

"Imposable", Is just incorrect thinking, (me)

Yo,
Ho,
Ho,
And a bottle of space rub!
Have toes been trodden?
That's because I have big feet, and no eyes!

Question?
With a station,
Command console.
There are 10 slots,
One I know can be set to exchange cash over.
But what and why are there 10, is there something else you can do with all the other slots.

Depends on game and scripts that you have.
* X3AP has "Report incoming ships" oneshot
* CAG/CLS has some commands.

Why 10? Perhaps it was anticipated that scripts will introduce multiple "services" to run on stations and you want one slot for the "oneshot" commands too.

Most likely, "Susie" is an alias, and the station casino is looking for someone to take responsibility for the serious damages that this violent juvenile delinquent has unleashed on their property....or at least she claims to be a juvenile.

Apparently this is not her first or second such offense. There are some who claim that she's actually a skilled pilot, but her uncontrollable temper has left her in financial hot water. (begin Bankrupt Assassin campaign)

**SIGH**
I thought we'd settled this a long, long time ago. The message about 'Lost Susie' is a code phrase used by the local security forces to signify there's an intruder on the station that needs to be dealt with. Didn't ya'll get the memo? :roll:

Oh, and the warning message about the airlocks lets security know the intruder has been dealt with, just so you know. :fg:
:lol:
Have a great idea for the current or a future game? You can post it in the [L3+] Ideas forum.

This is incorrect, as my family have been running the security ever since the Casino opened. Memos are only issued so the gullible have something to believe in. What really is going on is the information in the pause between memos! This takes years of practice to understand, and some may think we are doing nothing. Yet not so! We are deciphering the subtle nuances in the silence! The ancient loiter's first discovered this, and formed the now well established bone idleit's. They can spend decades unscrambling silence, for it to be copied and forwarded to the archives.
This all takes place between announcements, ! Susie is for want of a better word the full stop. So we know when to start on the next pause.
And for the smart ones who may have already worked this out, just think about all that silence filling the space between planets. Goodness knows what that all means.

The best way to understand this is with a big dollop of space, best observed upside down, and holding your breath. Quite where you hold onto breath is a whole new chapter!

You know thos sounds like a great mod in the making!

Find Susie! Of course when her parents (compulsive gamblers) left her setting in the casino to be found by station security 100 adventures ensued. So many years later Susie if grown up and now after hitting the lottery her parents are looking for her.

(Naturally she turned Pirate after a long stretch in Yaki pleasure complex.)

Go find Susie! (As potientially complex as any other plotline in the game I think) :P

That's a lot more elegent but time-consuming solution to the problem than starting up the "Bankrupt Assassin" start and renaming the pilot "Susie". In other words, it's something I'd love to see, but well beyond my ambitions and abilities at the moment.

Yes you just KNOW there's got to be a sad story in the future of any kid left to fend for herself in a casino. Like learning to deal blackjack.

I strongly suspect that Susie, being present on almost every station, is one of a new generation of Xenon models designed to look like other races.

Crossing franchises? Oops. Good explanation though.
As long as you don't tell me Terraformers can turn into firetrucks and such. Suszie might be that girl in the casino in the teeshirt saying "Xenons are a gas!"....
