No party is like a science party.

Did I say party? I meant WORK REALLY HARD AT SCIENCE.

So sometime after Skokan's visit on Day 230, Spock is going to have enough of this sitting around business and start contacting anyone he's ever met that seemed interested in participating in doing all things science.

IC, what's going to happen is that Spock will send out a private network blast to those he thinks would be interested, and ask for ideas on what they could be doing to improve not only the technology they have access to, but ways to observe and experiment on their surroundings such that hey, maybe one day they can get out of here. Then, he'll actually host the real science get-together the day after.

OOC, if you want your character involved in this, just sign up below. If your character hasn't met Spock yet, we'll fix it. If your character doesn't know how to science but wants to science? We'll do it. Just know that once you get Spock science-ing -- it usually turns into a science all-nighter (*cough* sleepover *cough*), and who doesn't want that?

I'm doing this mostly because (1) we have amazingly talented characters here who would under normal circumstances be able to build us all time/space machines, and (2) to be IC, I really need to give Spock (and perhaps some of your characters too) a way to be a workaholic.

What will be the result of this science-a-thon? THE POSSIBILITIES ARE ENDLESS. Or so I keep telling myself.

Cho's not on the network, but Spock knows that, so could we handwave a face-to-face invite? Other option, she could have given him a very small little book of linked paper at some point so he could send her messages. What you write in one appears in the other, as well.

It is pretty cool. That little project of Cho's, the one she's been working on for almost a year, it's to make linked journals that she can talk to people through that can't be hacked or eavesdropped on like she believes the network can. Makes sense for her to give out early versions as she works through bugs in the testing stages.
