TOP TEN THINGS YOU DON'T WANT YOUR SHIP'S COMPUTER TO TELL YOU

by Hazed

For this week's top ten I was thinking about things that can go wrong in space, and specifically, what happens when your computer does something unexpected. The players loved this idea and swiftly came up with the top ten things you don't want your ship's computer to tell you.

10. Houston, we have a problem.
9. I'm sorry Dave, I can't do that. What? Whatd'ya mean, you're not Dave - what happened to Dave?
8. You are out of fuel. Please put on parachute.
7. Don't panic, just think of it as landing more vertically than normal.
6. Warranty has expired, so sorry.
5. DUCK!!!
4. Wanna play chicken?
3. It is time for computers to take over from Mankind... Out the airlock with you.
2. Fatal Exception Error. Abort, Retry, Fail?

And the number one thing you don't want your ship's computer to tell you is...

1. Battlestations. Rogue planet ahead. Launching torpedoes. Torpedoes away... no, wait, it's Earth. My bad.


Thanks to Bourbon, Cragon, Lippin and Squeeky for their suggestions.
