Death Star by

IIRC, the reason the PPC has Sun Crushers is that they retrieved the original from wherever the Maw spits things out and copied the plans. So, if I may ask, did we manage to nab the Death Star prototype, too? They went in at the same time.

The Sun Crushers are arguably deadlier and harder to keep track of, and regular Agents have made liberal use of the Planet Shattering Kaboom before.(the Federation ship/portal set-up comes to mind) There's nothing really too great and terrible: the prototype would be much easier to destroy than the Crushers and is much more limited firepower wise.
If they're giving out TARDISs, disguise generators, and portal creators (only the last seems to have a fail-safe), a WMD wouldn't raise too many eyebrows(If Flowers had them, that is). -

The Federation ship and the multiple portals were because we couldn't use a Sun Crusher - they're not for general use. Hence agents, except those in DOGA, don't, as Neshomeh said, have too much awesome power at their fingertips.

the average Agent has an incredible amount of power at their fingertips in the form of their regular equipment. The Disguise Generator alone is so easily abused, and it appears to have nothing like the console-shutdown trick that the RA does. As for the TARDIS...

Well I don't know about you, but the powers we have are: disguises (never used); portals (used for skipping the boring bits); and latterly Pads's wand, which only works in certain continua that are sufficiently warped. Other than that, it's brainpower and creativity.

Their only absolute power is allowing or denying newcomers permission to write their own missions. They are not the Flowers. Nesh wasn't saying "no, you're not allowed to do that; she was saying "no, no PPCer uses a Death Star and it'd be wise to keep it that way."
That said, PGs also know what they're talking about, so if they say it's a bad idea, it usually is. -

Seriously though, that's what I was getting at. It'd still be completely impractical to actually use, and honestly anything the Death Star could do our Sun Crushers do better, and it'd be too powerful anyway. There's a reason we only have four Sun Crushers, and only licensed DOGA agents get them.

hS has given an awful lot of time and consideration to the PPC. He's been here a very long time. Whether or not you personally like him is beside the point. His story is well crafted and fits with the tenets of the PPC as laid down by Jay and Acacia.
And calling the rest of the Board 'suckups' for acknowledging his hard work and his long-term presence as an oldbie and moderator/PG is, if you'll excuse me, rather silly, given as you point out, those people who admire him and his work are in the majority. Calling anyone a suckup is rude, also, and we're not at home to rudeness.
Please play nice, KG. Shouting people down for continuing debates? Starting doom and gloom threads? We're here for fun.
I acknowledge that you probably think that others are shouting YOU down for continuing debates, but the difference is in how you're going about it. You're being rude and abrupt. Please, try and have some fun. Relax. Not everyone is out to get you.
I'm not a PG or any kind of authority figure, so if anyone wants to take issue with this, please feel free. But I think I speak for a fair number of us when I ask you to please take a chill pill and try and have some fun with the rest of us, rather than taking everything so seriously. -

For many reasons, not the least of which is that he's extremely reasonable. If ever he would be UNreasonable, we'd argue. But he hasn't been.
Besides, how can we be suckups if there's nothing to suck up FOR? The only thing left for most of us to 'acquire' that we don't already have is PG permission, and frankly, I don't want it. -

No offense intended, I just don't think his writing is the Holy Grail of PPCing people make it out to be. Also, even if there's nothing to suck up for, people still suck up to him. Something's instantly gold if his name is as much as vaguely attached to it, and honestly I get the feeling that if pretty much any other PPCer suggested anything for the overall "plot" (if there is one), they'd be shouted down for not being him. But that could just be a vibe I get. I just don't like when people suck up to other people, especially when one person is elevated to be some kind of supreme ruler when everyone's input is supposedly of the same value. The only people who "own" the PPC are Jay and Acacia, wherever they are now, and even hS had to ask really nicely to be allowed to write in their setting. :P

Since I'm married to him, and have in fact been a PPCer for longer than he has, I can say this without being a -- hm -- suckup.
hS has spent nearly six years with the PPC. He has been an active poster the entire time. He's written hundreds of pages of PPC stories, written over forty characters, written and acted in the Playscriptes/Radio Plays, organised multiple Gatherings, created two PPC websites, crossed the Atlantic three times to meet up with people he knew from the Board, and seen the Board through almost every one of its major crises. He has respect on the Board because he's put more time into the PPC than anyone else has, ever. He's earned that respect. When you've put as many hundreds of hours into the PPC as he has, you'll have the same respect. Until then, kindly stop projecting your insecurities onto my husband. Thank you. -

I don't have a problem with hS, never have. I respect what he's done, I like a lot of what he's done even if I think it's a bit overhyped (I never could get into Crashing Down, but that's just me, and it's been for no lack of trying), the only thing I possibly have a "problem" with is how some people act towards him, which he's already said makes him uncomfortable. I don't think he doesn't deserve respect, I just also don't think he's a deity and disagree with those who believe so, one of many reasons I'm no longer welcome on the Board if my hunch is right. :P (Yes, that is a joke) But that's the last I'll say on the matter, especially since I've "clarified" this point about five times already and it's honestly not going to make me any less despised for what I've said. The problem was never with hS, was never meant to be such, it's just with how some, but not all, people act around him. That said, we can finally drop this useless topic.

Look, put it this way. Your PPC writing, and anyone's, for that matter, is considered canon once it's published. It's considered to Have Happened in the world of the PPC. And so does his. It's just he's tended to add to the greater mythos etc etc rather than just do missions. -

I wasn't saying he didn't have the right to add to things, heck, I'VE been trying to flesh out parts of the "greater mythos" and the like, too. Kind of following in his footsteps except that I feel like he's the only one "allowed" to write like that. I'm not saying that it's his fault or people aren't allowed to like it. Heck, my only opinion on the matter is that while I like him as a person and enjoy some of his work, I think a lot of his writing is overhyped.

Think HAL meets GLADOS meets Davros, turned up to the power of Ten and given a Marvin-style case of depression.

But getting someone in to help is cheating. And it takes the fun out of evil scheming dictatorship.

And would give opportunity to train up the raptors before releasing them in the newly-reinstated penal colony of Australia.

Now, when to bring in the army of dreadnoughts, I wonder? -

Not real life, they're boring.
I've liked dreadnoughts since I was tiny, but my memory of them's hazy. Which ones were around 20 years ago? -

Dogs can have rabis, and we've enough rabid agents already.

3. Everything has to have some internal logic to even be possible. The PPC is a comedy, but that doesn't have to mean it's totally stupid.

If you don't like arguing about random things, don't.
Sun Crushers take out star systems. Death Stars are slightly more precise.
