ADMIRAL REQUESTS
New Admiral Request Page Found Here

Post your requests to the Admiral below (and also a note if you would specifically like that request to be rejected), and we will get to them in a timely manner. All Admiral requests (with the exception of Inmate resurrections) must go through this post, and their approval cannot be handwaved. Additionally, requests will only be granted to Wardens.

Unless otherwise specifically noted, all threads on this post are considered to be Private.

Though the Barge does not speak in any traditional way and is not reachable by communicator, it is sentient, and characters occasionally reach out to it via tapping on walls in Morse Code, spelling out messages in alphabet-letter fridge magnets, and other creative methods; if your character decides to try this, those messages may be dropped here as well!

I'M TRYING TO EXPLAIN BINARY AND COMPUTATIONAL HISTORY TO THE TIME TRAVEL COWBOY!

... TIME TRAVEL, RIGHT? IT WAS TIME TRAVEL? COMPUTER SIMULATION? CRASHED ALIEN SHIP?

Something like that.

Don't all those new modern phones have calculators built into them these days?

UGH, FOR FRICK'S SAKE.

A PASCALINE'S COMPLETELY MECHANICAL! IT'S EASIER TO EXPLAIN HOW A MACHINE CAN APPEAR TO THINK AND STORE INFORMATION IF I CAN OPEN UP THE TOP AND SHOW HIM HOW THE GEARS ARE MANUALLY COUNTING THE NUMBERS SO IT LOOKS LIKE IT CAN DO MATH!

I CAN'T SHOW HIM ELECTRICAL SIGNALS INSIDE OF A PROCESSOR! WHEN WERE YOU BORN, AFTER THE LIGHTBULB?
