(I didn't think to take screenshots until after the excitement. Sorry!)
I decided to conduct a late night social experiment with two of our crewmen on Destiny.
Step 1: Build test facility.
Step 2: Gather two volunteers: Jordan Lawson and Lydnis Rindisu.
Step 3: Have them sign a waiver form... just a formality.
Step 4: Have them strip into nothing but white scrubs and inject themselves with a secret solution (neurotoxin).
Stan Beezlebub says, "Would you both kindly strip down"
Lyndis Rindisu says, "...."
Stan Beezlebub says, "And put on nothing but these white scrubs" Stan Beezlebub hands the medical scrubs to Jordan Lawson. Jordan Lawson points to the airlock-'Captain's Quarters'.
Jordan Lawson says, "Some privacy, sir"
Stan Beezlebub says, "All part of the experiment" Stan Beezlebub hands the medical scrubs to Lyndis Rindisu.
Step 5: Teleport them into the inescapable (without the secret code words: rubber ducky) test facility.
Step 6: Tell them the syringe contained a poison and they have just minutes before they succumb to its effects.
Step 7: Inform them that they must fight to the death and only the winner will get the cure and watch what happens.
Stan Beezlebub says, "Okay gents"
Sound Synthesizer beeps, "Okay gents"
Stan Beezlebub says, "you were also poisoned"
Sound Synthesizer says, "you were also poisoned"
Jordan Lawson says, "Fuck."
Sound Synthesizer says, "Fuck."
Stan Beezlebub says, "when you injected yourselves" Stan Beezlebub nods. Stan Beezlebub nods.
Stan Beezlebub says, "Now you have to fight to the death"
Sound Synthesizer says, "Now you have to fight to the death"
Stan Beezlebub says, "for the antidote"
Sound Synthesizer boops, "for the antidote"
Lyndis Rindisu says, "Of course...."
Sound Synthesizer squawks, "Of course...." You have added the wrench to the utility belt. Not welding anymore. Stan Beezlebub raises an eyebrow. You have added the weldingtool to the utility belt.
You attach the Signal-Check Component to the underfloor and activate it.
Jordan Lawson says, "Okay, then..."
Sound Synthesizer squawks, "Okay, then..." Lyndis Rindisu [145.9] says, "AI, do me a favor and call the shuttle, do not let it leave" Gregory Jones [145.9] asks, "AI, where can I charge this laser gun?"
String set to poop You have added the multitool to the utility belt. You have added the wrench to the utility belt. Jordan Lawson [145.9] says, "Nah, it's okay AI"
Jordan Lawson whispers something. Stan Beezlebub raises an eyebrow.
Stan Beezlebub says, "no whispering"
Sound Synthesizer says, "no whispering"
Jordan Lawson says, "Alright..."
Lyndis Rindisu says, "I think he has planed against that"
Sound Synthesizer screeches, "I think he has planed against that" Lyndis Rindisu knocks on glass window.
Jordan Lawson asks, "Huh?"
Sound Synthesizer screeches, "Huh?"
Lyndis Rindisu says, "Hey captain"
Sound Synthesizer beeps, "Hey captain" Solo [145.9] states, "captain i watched your experiment and saw the death of the botanist you are now designated a threat to the staff of the station" Stan Beezlebub raises an eyebrow.
Lyndis Rindisu asks, "what if we don't fight?"
Sound Synthesizer screeches, "what if we don't fight?" Jordan Lawson [145.9] exclaims, "Not dead!" Stan Beezlebub [145.9] says, "No one is dead"
Stan Beezlebub says, "No one is dead" Jordan Lawson [145.9] says, "Not yet, anyway" Stan Beezlebub [145.9] says, "And what would that matter Solo"
Stan Beezlebub says, "And what would that matter Solo" Gregory Jones [145.9] says, "We can revive anyone with the cloner now" Stan Beezlebub [145.9] says, "That's not within your laws to make that choice"
Stan Beezlebub says, "That's not within your laws to make that choice"
Lyndis Rindisu says, "We can just let ourselves die"
Sound Synthesizer says, "We can just let ourselves die"
Stan Beezlebub asks, "Want a weapon?"
Sound Synthesizer boops, "Want a weapon?"
Jordan Lawson says, "Nah."
Lyndis Rindisu says, "It was not listed on the waiver"
Jordan Lawson says, "Choke me out."
Sound Synthesizer boops, "Choke me out." Stan Beezlebub laughs. Jordan Lawson points to his throat. Stan Beezlebub nods.
Lyndis Rindisu says, "I'll pass"
Sound Synthesizer boops, "I'll pass" Solo [145.9] states, "if a threat arises to the staaff of the station i will quarentine said threat as of law 2"
Jordan Lawson says, "Come on, it'll be good practice"
Sound Synthesizer screeches, "Come on, it'll be good practice"
Stan Beezlebub says, "You're dying" Jordan Lawson punches Jordan Lawson!
Stan Beezlebub says, "might want to hurry up"
Sound Synthesizer boops, "might want to hurry up"
Stan Beezlebub says, "No killing yourslef"
Sound Synthesizer beeps, "No killing yourslef"
Jordan Lawson says, "Jeez...."
Sound Synthesizer beeps, "Jeez...."
Stan Beezlebub says, "or no cure"
Stan Beezlebub says, "YOu have to fight to the death"
Sound Synthesizer squawks, "YOu have to fight to the death"
Stan Beezlebub asks, "What will you do?"
Sound Synthesizer screeches, "What will you do?"
Jordan Lawson exclaims, "For both of us, Lyndis!" Jordan Lawson punches Lyndis Rindisu! Stan Beezlebub laughs. Jordan Lawson punches Lyndis Rindisu! Stan Beezlebub [145.9] says, "Gregory"
Stan Beezlebub says, "Gregory" Stan Beezlebub [145.9] says, "Come watch this"
Stan Beezlebub says, "Come watch this"
Lyndis Rindisu says, "Just out right kill me"

This is Lyndis Rindisu. You look closely at Lyndis Rindisu. *---------* Lyndis Rindisu is wearing a medical scrubs. Lyndis Rindisu has a Engineering Headset by her mouth. Lyndis Rindisu has a PDA-Lyndis Rindisu on her belt. Lyndis Rindisu is wearing Lyndis Rindisu's ID Card (Engineer). Lyndis Rindisu looks severely injured! Lyndis Rindisu looks severely burned! *---------* Jordan Lawson slams Lyndis Rindisu's head into glass window! Jordan Lawson grabs hold of Lyndis Rindisu! Jordan Lawson slams Lyndis Rindisu's head into glass window!
Stan Beezlebub exclaims, "Enough!"
Sound Synthesizer squawks, "Enough!" Jordan Lawson grabs hold of Lyndis Rindisu! Lyndis Rindisu gasps.
Jordan Lawson says, "Phoo...."
Sound Synthesizer squawks, "Phoo...." Lyndis Rindisu gasps.
Stan Beezlebub says, "Step on the teleporter please"
After all the wounds were bandaged I brought them to my office where I explained the experiment:
Stan Beezlebub says, "Okay"
Stan Beezlebub says, "..."
Stan Beezlebub says, "There was no poison"
Jordan Lawson says, "Ass."
Jones weaves around ????'s legs and trips them! Stan Beezlebub laughs.
Lyndis Rindisu says, "nailed it"
Stan Beezlebub says, "I was impressed with you both" ???? sneezes.
Stan Beezlebub says, "holding out as long as you did however" Stan Beezlebub nods.
Jordan Lawson says, "I'm sorry for beating you, Lyndis"
Stan Beezlebub says, "For you Lyndis" Lyndis Rindisu uselessly hits the reinforced wall with 500 Credits. Stan Beezlebub hands 500 Credits to Jordan Lawson.
Stan Beezlebub says, "and for you Jordan"
Jordan Lawson says, "Thank you, sir." Stan Beezlebub nods.
Stan Beezlebub says, "Lyndis, I'll get you the booze you requested as well"
Stan Beezlebub says, "I hope you've both learned a valuable lesson today"
Jordan Lawson asks, "Don't trust your captain?" Stan Beezlebub nods.
Stan Beezlebub says, "Pretty much" Jordan Lawson laughs. Stan Beezlebub laughs.
Oh, and forgot to add that Jordan and I finished off the shift with a banana eating contest on the shuttle.
Perfect, though that brings up an interesting roleplay aspect
On Destiny, you're supposed to generally care more about trying to stay alive, yeah?
So when put into a situation like this where you have to kill someone else to save yourself, does that supersede the rules about not killing other people as an antag?

I would assume that if both involved parties agreed to it it'd be fine
RP trumps rules in that case, for me. I mean people kill each other in the ring all the time. In a situation where 'you both die if you don't' - the choice boils down to morality vs utilitarianism. That leads to interplay between the characters involved and their views. A bigger 'if' is when the situation is 'do this or die'. I'd like to say RP trumps there, and that it should be played relative to the character involved, but people are dumb so probably not.
Hahaha. In the end, it truly was a social experiment. I figured the death waiver cleared me of any guilt as well. Haha. I was happy that they played along with it and enjoyed themselves in the process.
The RP Goon server is the best addition we could have hoped for.
