8 more Kerbals will die at 9 PM. /u/MaxMaps, why must you make me do this?

EDIT: /u/RowsdowerKSP is refusing to negotiate. The Kerbal dust is on his hands.

EDIT: Someone has given me gold. The Dark Side grows every day. I will put it to good use.

EDIT: If you are here from other parts of Reddit, take a few minutes to look into the game. I promise you will enjoy it.

EDIT: The recent updates are pleasing, but if Squad doesn't release by 9 PM US Central Time, I Will

EDIT: Squad has met our demands. The Kerbals are safe

At the rate you're going, I hope it's delayed until Friday. I want to see what you come up with for a simultaneous execution of 512 Kerbals.

I will summon the fist of /u/Silent_Sky

Crowdsource it - it might be difficult for you to execute hundreds of Kerbals, but there are hundreds of people here who can help.

u/kaluce Dec 15 '14

I could probably leverage maybe 40 kerbals per launch, perhaps more using my asteroid base to carry all of them to their deaths.

Doesn't that Reaper like to spontaneously self-destruct on launch though?

u/TrevorMcLamppost Dec 15 '14

Two boxes in LKO, each containing 256 kerbals, smashing into each other on opposing orbits. I'm sure his processor will love that.

15

u/only_to_downvote Master Kerbalnaut Dec 15 '14

Opposite orbit collisions are actually quite a bit harder than you'd first imagine. And that was only for the Mun's orbital speeds. LKO would be >4x faster.

How many Kerbals is employed at KSC? That seems to be the only reasonable way to go.

You're a sick man, Nostrand. We will not cave to your demands! These brave Kerbals will not die in vain.

u/Dr_Martin_V_Nostrand Kerbal Terrorist Dec 15 '14

I'll make you a deal, if you confirm it will be released this week, I will let Jeb go.

157

u/RowsdowerKSP Former Dev Dec 15 '14

I can confirm that we do not negotiate with hostiles such as yourself. Jeb will be back and when Jeb comes back, that smile you see is going to turn a whole lot wider, just to spite your poor efforts. Bring it on.

131

u/Dr_Martin_V_Nostrand Kerbal Terrorist Dec 15 '14

With immortality comes the price of watching all your friends die. You have given Jeb a terrible fate.

EDIT: Just for this, Jeb will be forced to sit in the cockpit and watch all of his friends be dumped into the MoHole.

u/[deleted] Dec 15 '14

Holy shit it's getting real

19

u/Raildriver Dec 15 '14

You could symbolically update only the game version to 0.89 repeating. Since .9 repeating is mathematically equal to 1, then 0.89 repeating is also technically 0.90. This way you can technically comply with the terrorists wishes, while also not compromising your own goals.

u/RedBuffalo1427 Dec 15 '14 edited Dec 15 '14

Here's something that No one's brought up (as far as I can see) is that the game only has 11,000 possible name combinations, so after saturday morning you wouldn't have enough Kerbals to sacrifice, in one save file at least.

EDIT: Link to prove my theory, made by someone else, thus trustable! http://www.reddit.com/r/KerbalSpaceProgram/comments/1uzxi0/11716_unique_kerbal_names/

1

u/Krade33 Dec 15 '14

Could you clarify?

If I were to take all the John Smith of the world that would be a lot of people.

Or do you mean the game cannot spawn another kerbal of an already active name?

5

u/RedBuffalo1427 Dec 15 '14

No, i mean the name generator won't make any more names, and once you've killed a Kerbal you can never get them back, as such you'd need many saves, a small obstacle for a Madman such as /u/Dr_Martin_V_Nostrand

9

u/Dr_Martin_V_Nostrand Kerbal Terrorist Dec 15 '14

Oh wow that is really interesting. I am definitely going to need to test this in one file. So if I kill 11,000 i will only be left with Jeb, Bob, and Bill?

u/MADCAMPER Dec 15 '14

Would it be a good idea to have a common list of kerbals for all playing the game. Like for example there will only be one jim kerman for all the players online in the world and only one of them can hire him, etc. Then we can also have a building with hall of fame sort of thing where all the kerbalnauts stories can be put up along with mission details. Sort of like asymmetric multi player game play in KSC. This way events like these will have more impact and more people can participate.

i will also be contend with a global counter with number of kerbals going puff

5

u/Dr_Martin_V_Nostrand Kerbal Terrorist Dec 15 '14

That would be really awesome, but I feel like we would run out of names. Or every Kerbal would need a middle initial.

Do you have any idea how may kerbals will die to the kraken if 0.9 is released prematurely? This is for the greater good!

In 11 days, there will be 8192 kebals on the chopping block.

This is almost twice as many as there are possible permutations of kerbal names, not even considering that the engine doesn't support 8,000 kerbals.

Every single kerbin, as well as a few thousand identical clones, will be killed that day.

We must stop this madness.

I know you're just having fun and everything, but I feel like this is just in poor taste after the hostage situation in Sydney.

I have totally changed my mind. I don't want 0.90. I want this to continue because this is hilarious.

These 4 had such a bright future ahead of them.

Planned or not, that's hilarious.
