Emails

Emails can be found and read by viewing Email Terminals. They are scattered throughout the GATE Cascade Research Facility. And viewing some emails may even reward the player with a recipe. Occasionally Order laptops can be found, and often contain at least one email from a superior to a group of soldiers in the area.

Investigation?	Richard Moyer [email protected] Jane Karenski [email protected]	rmoyer Jane, what's this I'm hearing about an investigation into our security? Has anyone spoken to you about it? jkarenski Relax, Richard. It doesn't concern anyone in your sector. It's the Labs team. You know how they are - always scared someone's leaking information. rmoyer Manse suggested the Executive Committee thinks someone may be monitoring our data network. I thought that was impossible.	None
Fungus	Isaiah Manbanko [email protected] T Enderson [email protected]	imanbanko Hey, you asked me to get in touch if we found any applications for new materials. You remember that fungus Lenora's team brought back? We did some tests. This stuff makes penicillin look like tapwater. tenderson I reviewed the report. You're cleared for Phase 2. imanbanko Someone needs to go back in there. We need more samples. tenderson The Silo 2 systems are online. Should be fine. I'll talk to TR.	None
Cooking	G Chevallier [email protected] Immura Kintato [email protected]	gchevallier Hey Immura, I'm looking for a gift for friend of mine who loves cooking. Any thoughts? ikintato They want to be a chef? Give them a knife. Until you chop it up, you can't cook it.	Steak Knife
Re: THIS DAMN FACILITY	L Simmons [email protected] T Enderson [email protected]	lsimmons The power sockets are on a timer!? I was working on mass dampeners and the place just SHUT DOWN. You know those have to warm up for hours - now I have to start all over again! tenderson Just keep an eye on your wristwatch. Don't start a task you can't finish before the facility power goes out. Why the hell were you working at midnight anyway!? Get some rest, we can't afford to make mistakes. - T	None
Rollerblades	G Chevallier [email protected] Moira Shepherd [email protected]	gchevallier You know what would be really useful around here? Rollerblades. I'd get around so much quicker. mshepherd You'd break your neck, Moyer would kick your ass, I'd laugh in your face.	None
OFFICE SUPPLY CROSSBOWS	Richard Moyer [email protected]	rmoyer This is a notice to all Cascade technical staff. We have received some complaints from team members about misuse of office supplies, up to and including creating improvised weapons for flinging projectiles across the cubicles. We here at GATE understand and commend your ingenuity as scientists -- after all, it's why you work here. But if you want to continue working in this department, knock it off. - R.M.	Prison Inspired Crossbow
Bad Bots	Richard Moyer [email protected] Moira Shepherd [email protected]	mshephed I've mentioned this before, but your security bots are a menace. They don't seem to distinguish employees AT ALL, and whose idea was it to get them to restock the soda machines?? There's a TON of valuable equipment in those things, which would have been a lot more useful elsewhere. rmoyer Moira, why are you telling me this? I am not in charge of security OR procurement. If you're serious, try Enderson. But I have never had any problems with the bots. I stay out of the facility when it shuts down for the night - like you're supposed to.	None
Anvils?!	L Simmons [email protected] D Lansky [email protected]	lsimmons What happened to the anvil in our workshop? I needed to repair some of my tools, but it's gone. dlansky Sorry, that was us. Check the supply closet on Offices Level 3. We were doing some heavy repairs up there, and needed solid working surfaces.	None
The dog thing	Isaiah Manbanko [email protected] Hilda Dixon [email protected]	imanbanko So we finally caught one of those dog things. KP called it a 'peccary'. I've noticed their behaviour is different here than in Anteverse II. She has a theory that the lower entropy on this side makes their biochemistry more potent. They're stronger. It certainly seems more angry. hdixon Interesting. Certainly the energy differential is strongly in our favour. But I wouldn't jump to conclusions. We don't know enough. imanbanko You're behind the times. Apparently the team on Level 3 has figured out a way to use the differential in their new Power Cell design.	None
This needs to STOP	Richard Moyer [email protected] Sarah Frake [email protected]	rmoyer I'm concerned some of your people have been working extra hours, and not returning to the Residence Sector each evening. I've been hearing some of them have built BEDS down there. sfrake Look Richard, if they sometimes work a little extra, it's because they want to and a project needs it. A lot of this stuff, you can't just walk away at 6pm. rmoyer It needs to stop, Sarah. The security bots don't have an 'employee' setting."	Couch Surfing
WWF	G Chevallier [email protected] Moira Shepherd [email protected]	gchevallier So do you think WWF wrestling is real? Or are they just acting? I don't get it. Why would everyone cheer if it was fake? mshepherd It depends. gchevallier On what? mshepherd How gullible you are.	Randy Savage
What's going on?	Lenora Riggs [email protected] Sergei Tengku [email protected]	lriggs Any news? You've had those A2 samples for two weeks. What's the hold up? stengku Sorry Lenora, yes, we think the intensity of the radiation over there is due to high entropy levels. Energy just dissipates faster. We're giving everyone iodine tablets to counteract the effects from expeditions. But there's a problem I can't figure out. The numbers don't add up. Even with the higher entropic quotient, there's excess energy coming through the Gateways. Iriggs Tell Sergei. Not my problem.	None
Doesn't add up	Sasha Verenkov [email protected] M Hutton [email protected]	sverenkov I've been analysing the fluctuations from the last perforation with Suan. It's like there's energy entering the system from somewhere else. mhutton We've discussed the parameters, Sasha. They're within bounds. That's why we run tests: to figure out what's happening over there. sverenkov The only reason you have data is because Lenora went and got it. Don't forget whose neck is really on the line here.	None
Lvl 3 containment req.	Lenora Riggs [email protected] T Enderson [email protected]	Iriggs You need to take this one seriously. We retrieved IS-178 from A2 and it nearly killed us. It needs FULL Crucis containment and anyone interacting with it will need impact shielding at the VERY LEAST. tenderson Noted. - T	None
Connected specimens?	Isaiah Manbanko [email protected] Kathy KP Pendleton [email protected]	imanbanko Kath, How have you been studying IS-0173? The little bouncing fellow everyone's calling the 'pest'? I can't get near it. kpendleton Hey Isaiah, I've been working with dead specimens. Autopsies suggest they're the second stage in the life cycle of a metamorphic creature, starting with 171. I'm beginning to wonder if it's possible that all the A2 specimens are connected? imanbanko Interesting theory.	None
BBQ	G Chevallier [email protected] Moira Shepherd [email protected]	gchevallier Went to a 'barbeque' on the dam in the powersector last night. Those guys can party. They had these great sausages. One of the hydrologists made them. Said they were actually really easy. mshepherd Don't ask what's in them.	What's in the Sausage?
Sector One security	Richard Moyer [email protected] T Enderson [email protected]	rmoyer We may have an issue in Office Sector - anyone who gets their hands on a CPU from one of the Security Bots could hack this thing. tenderson I appreciate the concern for safety, Richard, but we're confident in our security procedures. - T	None
X-ers?	Isaiah Manbanko [email protected] M Hutton [email protected] Lenora Riggs [email protected]	imanbanko These X-ers are pretty dangerous. We analysed the specimen you brought back. They're smart, but we can't tell if they're actually intelligent yet. Kath's running MCC tests, but it's hard. Their bio-eletrical systems are off the charts. They keep frying the equipment. We need an actual name for them. X-ers? mhutton I've clarified this before: A2 is NOT ""Planet X"", it's not even JUST a planet. I don't know why this nickname is still sticking around. lriggs No, it's Exor. I found them, I get to name them.	None
Power cell testing	Sarah Frake [email protected] Jim Bernecki [email protected]	sfrake Jim, I'm concerned we haven't field tested the power cells sufficiently. I told Enderson about them. He's worried we're relying on salt to keep Flathill in check. jbernecki They've BEEN tested - containment systems, weaponry, even some of the personal transport prototypes. And please, they're sodium-based accumulators derived from our research into A2, not 'salt'. The fuel cells are not the issue here, if you get my drift	None
PESTS	Isaiah Manbanko [email protected] Kath KP Pendleton [email protected]	imanbanko Kathy, I've noticed something about IS-0173's internal structure. It shows clear morphic continuity with IS-0171. I believe they're the same creature at different stages. kpendleton The low entropy of A2 could, theoretically, encourage metamorphic lifecycles. They're more energy efficient. imanbanko Yes! That would also explain why ANYTHING from A2 proliferates so rapidly here: there's so much more available energy. Their metabolic rates must skyrocket. kpendleton Exactly.	None
Power Cells	Hilda Dixon [email protected] Jim Bernecki [email protected]	hdixon Hi Jim, what's the operating lifespan of the Flathill containment system? How long do the power cells last? jbernecki Don't worry about it, they're high density sodium cells, good for at least a month. There's plenty of redundancy in the containment system, too. You'd have to pull out all three to reopen the Gateway. Access to the rooftops is restricted, and anyway no-one would be crazy - or stupid - enough to do that.	Something in the Fog
COMPOSER	T Enderson [email protected] Hilda Dixon [email protected]	tenderson Are you sure IS-0064 is contained in Flathill? What's to stop it leaving? I'm still waiting on your report. - T hdixon We can't be perfectly certain, but everything we're seeing suggests it's localized to Flathill. It seems erratic to us, but we've noticed some patterns. It seems to compose melodies of sorts. Report's coming - I've been busy. tenderson So we've got a new Mozart on our hands? I need more than that, Hilda. - T hdixon It'll be in my report, but I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed. They're 'part of the fog phenomena, but we lost any chance to explore their origins once we installed the containment system. They may actually generate the 'fog', but last time I suggested researching it, you ignored me.	Composing Fog
Containment	T Enderson [email protected] Derek Manse [email protected]	tenderson Idris told me that IS-0091 escaped containment again this morning. I need to know exactly what happened. dmanse No-one knew it was missing for almost half an hour - the creature's invisible to most people. We chased it down with EM lamps, but it almost got Dr Tang. Peters thinks the x-ray system had a brown out, but we're not sure. You're in charge of containment processes, you tell me. tenderson I'll get Frake and her people to review the system immediately. We may need to install another tier of failsafes. dmanse I strongly recommend that.	What is That?
TIDY UP	Richard Moyer rmoyer:cascade.internal.gate Sarah Frake [email protected]	rmoyer Can we get some gosh dang organization down in Manufactoring? It's amazing we get anything done. I went down to see Varsha yesterday, and I was tripping over crates on every walkway, which are very much NOT up to even basic safety standards. I know we don't answer to OSHA, but we'll be answering to keystone if we have an accident down there. sfrake It's a work in progress. Just try to keep your tie from getting stuck in one of the machines, okay?	None
Spelling	S Stewart sstewart:cascade.internal.gate G Chevallier [email protected]	sstewart Gaston, we need to be consistant here. Once and for all, are we using US or British spelling? We're dealing with superpowerful, other-worldly artifacts, and we can't even agree on a dictionary. gchevallier Steven, It's spelt 'artefact'.	None
