Lizard, you ineffable asshole. (M5 spoilers)


Lizard, buddy, I get that you earned that callsign somewhere, but come on.

Yes, we did discuss the possibility of adding context-sensitivity to praise messages.

Hehe. We've been discussing upgrading the builtin messages feature to avoid stuff like that by having moods. i.e the pilots would have a general set of messages and then they have some for when they're angry, sad ,etc.

It would be a fairly big job but it would enhance the game no end, and prevent this kind of thing. :)

Originally: "The Colonial Fleet gave me the callsign "Lizard" ... now I cheer for the Toasters!"

"The Colonial Fleet gave me the callsign "Lizard" ... how could I not be cheering for the Cylons?"

Lizard: not so secretly a cylon.

Hell at this point we might as well just assume the entire Theseus is crewed by Cylons.

Starbuck: "Come on, Apollo, that's a civilian liner!"
Lizard: "I'll do it!"
Apollo and Starbuck both at the same time: "Shut up, Lizard!"

Even their callsigns are somewhat similar :P

Why? It's more fun this way, and who are we to stand in the way of the young Lizard meme from developing? :D

Also, this is why we wanted muted performances from our VAs otherwise it'd be even worse than the praise self stuff in bad contexts becoming memes ;)

@Spoon:
There is a 7 second delay your evidence incriminating Turbo ... no enought to frame him to be a Cylon

Are you trying to spread panic or something? ;)


EDIT: I'm currently trying to picture which Model of Skinjob Lizard is ...

Re: Lizard, you ineffable asshole. (M5 spoilers)
Right, that's suspicious. Maybe Spoon is actually a Cylon and just tries to distract us? :) Or maybe they're both Cylons. This also happened sometimes.

Re: Lizard, you ineffable asshole. (M5 spoilers)
I dunno.  M3 was a critical time for the Theseus.

Spoiler:
If any of the pilots were Cylons, they could of caused a great deal of damage even beyond what already happened.

The attack would of probably been timed to ensure that the Cylon pilot(s) were on CAP duty or otherwise up in the air when the initial sabotage occurred.  One Cylon in a viper would of meant that the Theseus would be down at least two birds - one of these losses being a Viper or Raptor switching sides, the other being the human-controlled Viper that gets shot down by a sneak attack from his 'wingman'.  Cue the boarding parties actually getting through due to a lack of vipers providing cover, and the Theseus getting captured instead of destroyed because doing so opens up interesting possibilities for the Cylons...

Memes aside, I doubt any of the pilots are/were Cylons.  M3 would of played out too differently if that was the case.
