Player Plot - something something tachyons
Hi everyone! Robin here, with a little player plot action for you all.
In a bid to understand the potential simulation-ness of Deerington, this week Seven of Nine will try to use her Borg augmentations to access her Fluid device. This will involve injecting a small amount of modified nanoprobes into the Fluid. These nanoprobes will do something something tachyons something (insert Treknobabble here) as they attempt (and fail) to assimilate the device, and their presence will briefly disrupt the Fluid network.
Side effects: From 6th - 9th April, characters whose Fluids are affected by the nanoprobes' attack on the network (this can be totally optional) will see their device screen flicker and briefly blink green, then it will return to normal. But the rogue tachyons in the network will mean that for these three days (until the nanoprobes are ejected), messages sent via text or social media will have a 50/50 chance of being sent to the wrong person entirely! Again, this is completely optional, you don't have to have your character's device be affected at all!
The messages will appear to go to the correct person, so the sender won't realise it's been misfired until they get a response!
This will not impact the actual DeerFeed network at all, nor will there be any other side effects from using Fluid devices besides the potential for some embarassment/misunderstandings. Characters who are significantly attuned to the network may be able to pick up on the presence of the nanoprobes and possibly even their origin -- hit me up here or via plurk (![[plurk.com profile]](https://plurk.com/favicon.ico)

Have fun with those misfires, everyone!

So, I have a silly little question: Is it reasonable for these accidentally shipped posts to have some 'borg-isms' like "Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to the collective" randomly in the message? Cause, ya know. Nanites. Blah blah. Deerington is an awful place?
(I'll probably avoid actually saying "borg." But it seems funny to include some oddities in there.)
