I guess this will come in hand with what TO has gained from the sample…
Yep
We have electrogenesis and electricity transfer, now we just need electrotrophy, and preferably electrosynthesis, which reminds me that we haven’t scratched any trees or plants in general, and that if we dig our claws into a potato we’ll get chloroplasts that can become really good amyloplasts
All Actions: Start to amass a swarm of scouts.
I can guess what will be this armies’ intended purpose…
Action 1: Make the tower stronger and stabler
Action 2: Make the tower larger
Action 3: Make the tower taller
You mean wider with this one?
yeah i guess so
its up to your interpretation tbh
@Centarian I need your votes.
Action 1: Make the tower stronger and stabler
Action 2: Make the tower larger
Action 3: Make the tower taller
Since these all are the same as nigel’s actions, do you perhaps want those to boost nigel’s roll output instead of being separate actions?
6(4+2)
7(5+2)
(Adds to Nigel’s actions)
5(4+1) 2(1+1) 5(4+1)
Round 31 - 18:00, May 2st, 2000
Round Summary
TO gathered an army in it’s grand nest and showed them how impressive is the tower.
The Organism Report
TO Researched the mechanisms behind the cellular metablism, gaining extensive knowledge in this field which should facilitate for anything which requires such wiseness at the moment.
After the army gathered in the nest, TO started working on great improvements for the tower, making it far stabler and taller, aswell as a bit thicker. This has earned it lots of gifts from it’s children for the work done (+350 R).
Influence Report
TO commanded lots of scouts to amass in the area of the new hive. Not only did all of them come, some of them even brought gifts with them (+100 R)!
Besides that a colony sent in a boat finally started sending resources back from Florida. Other small colonies also popped up across Nicaragua…

Anybody can join this forum game, it’s very easy!
can we get a tower-height-meter?
You will need to construct it first…
M: make all of our cells (and the cells of all our future offspring) have organelles that are essentially wire shaped mitochondria that keep their intermembrane space acidic to make it more conductive, so they can be used to turn both DC and AC into ATP by letting the H+ produced by electrolysis [1] flow through the atp synthase motors and recycle atp. (Obviously based off of mitochondria, which already do electrolysis at such a scale to extract energy from the proton gradient, but aren’t able to use external flow of electrons to do this, due to their extremely short length)
A: install a smaller member of the alternator caste in our room, or whatever the closest thing we have is, and make an electrical port in our body that can get plugged in to power us
which, at large scales, the conversion to h2 is effectively immediate, but at smaller scales, like sub micrometer scales, you can do stuff with it before it gets bound to 2 electrons and another proton ↩︎
Congratulations, you’ve turned the alternator caste into a proper generator.
Now I just wonder what will TO do with this energy it has gained access to…
All actions: Amass more scouts in a swarm
Just how much more do you want to gather?
Bio Gundam.
So that what you’ve been gathering these swarms for, huh?
Action: Create a tower-height-o-meter
Action 2: Make the tower wider
Action 3: Make the tower taller
Should we make a religion out of the tower?
