Wait a minute, what’s all this then?
Another BBS door game in the spirit of Badass Space Dragon - now with even more tropes and bot accounts. Let’s sign up for a tour on a deep space salvage vessel! What could possibly go wrong?
The game is entirely playable with 10 minutes per week of effort. Previous players will tell you that the upper limit is only bounded by the imagination of the players involved.
Is it cool that I’ve never played in one of these before?
Totally cool. No previous experience required and those that have played before will not have any sort of advantage over newcomers. We’re just looking to create more stories in the galaxy of Charybdis that @patrace has graciously made available to the public domain.
Launch Schedule
Registrations are due by 2300 UTC on Monday, Jan. 16th and the first missions will be available shortly thereafter. Unless otherwise indicated, mission updates will posted weekly according to the following schedule:
- Orders are due every Sunday by 2300 UTC (first turn deadline on Sun Jan 22)
- A 24 hour window for the GM to validate the results
- Results of the previous turn and new missions posted by Monday 2300 UTC
Total run time no more than 12 turns.
##Registration Desk
You arrive at the NeoTarsus Job Fair to find a single shabby booth staffed by two smiling humans. The cheerfully-colored banner behind the booth reads:

You’re in dire enough straits that this sounds like the chance you’ve been looking for. Let that sink in for a moment. Now grab a clipboard.
