I hear you pardner, but it feels like the ol’ Dabohaze has been doing all this flying and can’t quite make it out of hock. We’re up b87 right now but with a lot of damage and few upgrades, as we’ve picked up a lot of damage while trying to get out of debt. It’d be nice to get ahead at some point.

Oh…wait, they cost b400 and up.
Have you ever considered piracy? There’s a few flush captains around. How about extortion?

How well defended, electronically, is the bank’s funds?
I don’t see much encryption going on with their transfers. Indeed, the majority of their communications seem to be in plaintext…
However, those sorts of shenanigans are probably best saved for Unizone.
Hello? Unizone? What are your protocols?
Yeah, piracy didn’t work out so well at our last job.

I’ll take a coaster this week and go for the easy mission - but there is something making me uneasy at what seems like very simple money…and there is that talk of battleships…
You’re off probation at Ella’s.

Confirmed.
Isn’t b87 enough to repair the Dabohaze to full (55HP -> b28) and take mission 2?
Ah, are you looking to do the full upgrade thing?

That had been the plan, but… 55HP/2 = b28, adding Mission 2 is b50, so that’s b78 to get full HP. Beard calculated it as b2 for 1HP, which is where the issue seems to be…
That said, hey bank (@davide405)! Can I borrow b60 and get 3 Machines That Go Bing so I can come back from Mission 2 alive to pay you back b66?
I think I liked Waiting in Cars more, there was less math…

Waiting for Cars
STEAMPUNKBANANA:
(giving up again). Nothing to be done.
daneel:
(advancing with short, stiff strides, legs wide apart). I’m beginning to come round to that opinion. All my life I’ve tried to put it from me, saying daneel, be reasonable, you haven’t yet tried everything. And I resumed the struggle. (He broods, musing on the struggle. Turning to SteampunkBanana.) So there you are again.
STEAMPUNKBANANA:
Am I?
daneel:
I’m glad to see you back. I thought you were gone forever.

Is that a “NO”, then?
Five Internet Points if you can name the players.
Maybe?
I noticed. But when I offered to trade this fine Unizone Mug for a Machine That Goes Bing, she threatened to ban me again.

You’ve put more money into the bank than I have. You should have more say than me. 
I’m just this guy, y’know?
All I’d say is that it’s a risky mission in terms of pass/fail, so it might not be a good use of community funds.
*shrugs*
The bank is solvent and it looks like there’s only three requests in right now, though, so…?
Oh, I wasn’t really asking you. 
I’ll clarify that a little up there…
