The Thing Among Us

[Ican'tthinkof1goodname]

All guns are 9-C

 

[Aguywhodoesthings]

sorry messed up my wording there
i ment that it's not 9-B

 

[Da_Lunge_Fish]

This one isn't. Have you seen a handgun that blows up a head?

 

[Aguywhodoesthings]

since the crewmates are smaller than a regular person their skulls would probably require less force to blow up(i might be wrong but i am not a skull doctor)

 

[Ican'tthinkof1goodname]

I'm a "skull doctor" and blowing up skulls can be 9-B at worst

 

[Aguywhodoesthings]

then someone should make a CRT about that

 

[Ican'tthinkof1goodname]

I'm willing to do that after the Self-Substance one is over

Just a few minor points

• What does a reactor sabotage do, and how fast does it do it?
• Unless the Imposter's gun can completely incinerate the Thing, it's worthless.
• Blowing chunks off the Thing just makes more Things
• The Thing needs only one touch to win

He wouldn't need to kill the thing with the gun, just briefly stop it so that it won't be able to fix the reactor.

 

[Da_Lunge_Fish]

I think it's meant to destroy the ship, and the impostors seem to survive it.

 

[Aguywhodoesthings]

blowing chunks of the thing would indeed make more things
so wouldn't let's say like 2 of the things just be able to press the button while the impostor is focused on the larger thing

 

[ApiesDeathbyLazors]

He wouldn't need to kill the thing with the gun, just briefly stop it so that it won't be able to fix the reactor.

When I say worthless, I mean worthless. Getting chunks blown off won't stop the Thing for any longer then the half second pause from the force of the blow. And again, each chunk blown off is just another Thing the Imposter is now dealing with.

If destroying the reactor does anything other than vaporizing the Thing instantly, it's probably not helpful.

 

[Aguywhodoesthings]

well the reactor isn't destroyed exacly it melts down

 

[Aguywhodoesthings]

i'm not exacly sure what the reactor melting down does but it definatly makes the ship not function properly, it's also an instant win for the impostor if it succeeds

 

[ApiesDeathbyLazors]

That sounds like it just kills the life support systems which is, say it with me, worthless.

 

[Aguywhodoesthings]

it's likely that it just causes everything on the ship to stop working since the reactor likely powers the whole ship

 

[Moritzva]

What.

Why is this still going on? No, The Thing stomps in literally all scenarios. It can easily eat a Crewmember, figure out how to stop a Sabotage, then just... do it. Because The Thing can split up.

 

[ApiesDeathbyLazors]

it's likely that it just causes everything on the ship to stop working since the reactor likely powers the whole ship

So yeah, assuming the Thing can't just fix the reactor, it can just hibernate for a few hundred thousand years to wait for something to happen.

Oh by the by, MacReady has a page now.

 

[Aguywhodoesthings]

cool

 

[Ican'tthinkof1goodname]

We should get MacReady vs The Impostor

 

[Aguywhodoesthings]

that would be cool and would also not be a stomp
so who's willing to make the vs thread?

 

[Aguywhodoesthings]

i can make the thread

 

[Aguywhodoesthings]

alright i made it
