Poll: Who is the Hottest Chick in SMAC? - Page 4

I suppose that would depend on whether you're five or five hundred years after Planetfall, wouldn't it?

MysticWind · February 18, 2004, 19:39

No, seriously, she looks like Captain Janeway for Star Trek: Voyager.

Damn, without even voting, I think I've geekified myself already.

First of all, Deirdre's voice accent is not Scottish. I don't know what the hell it is, but it's definitely not Scottish. The Firaxian talent scouts found a nice exotic accent for her, I'll admit it sounds good and gentle, but it has clearly never been anywhere near 200 miles of Glasgow. (Not that that's a bad thing.)

Secondly, don't judge Miriam by her in-game illustrations. When you meet her over the commlinks, several of the mini-window biographical photos show her to be a feisty, active, and attractive young woman like the rest of us. The manual also says that she is a charismatic leader - something the "Journey to Alpha Centauri" story reinforces. That means she gets people motivated and gets them doing stuff.

Deirdre is a vegetarian. Ever noticed how you never need a sign or T-shirt to identify the vegetarian in the group? That's right. Vegetarians are usually the ones who have just farted. But if that turns you on...

And Santiago always struck me as the sort who would eat her mate afterwards.

Where do I begin with this? Freakin hilarious.

they all use some type of rejuvenator machine each ten years - as ingame story tells. After 500 years they may be still 'in shape'

Starfarer · February 18, 2004, 21:46

yes, but she certainly isn't 40 anymore after abhout a hundred years on Planet, now is she?

And wouldn't Miriam consider such a thing godless, being as it reverses God's will?

Barinthus · February 18, 2004, 22:38

Nah, it could be argued that it is God's Will that Miriam ended up on Chiron and made available the technology to extend her lifespan so she can do what she's supposed to do.

Starfarer · February 19, 2004, 03:20

But by THAT logic, isn't it also God's will that, say, Zakharov ended up on PLanet to provide everyone else with high technology with which they might come closer to God?

And does anyone else notice that Miriam's like, schizo when it comes to teleporters?

When you get a Psi Gate, she's all "go through, my Children! God said it's fine!" but when you use a Bulk Matter transmitter, she's all "GOD HATES THIS TECHNOLOGY! YOU'LL LOSE YOUR SOUL!"

Just yet antoher reason not to like Miriam... she's friggin' nuts.

Frankychan · February 19, 2004, 03:33

Best. Post. Ever.

I can actually hear her voice saying that!

People in general have this tendency to expand upon things that serves their interest and ignore things that contradict their interest. I don't see why Miriam would be any different. She can say that she's the servant of the Lord and that Zakharov or whoever is an abomination in the eye of the God therefore must be hauled off to a punishment sphere until he repents. Even if he repents, he's still an abomination so it's etched into his DNA so in the sphere, he stays.

Religious people can be so irrational.

MysticWind · February 19, 2004, 15:45

Seriously, does anyone think that Miriam looks like Janeway from Voyager?

Barinthus · February 19, 2004, 17:39

No way, MysticWind. Sorry

I can accept Reba McEntire although.

Starfarer · February 20, 2004, 02:11

FOUL SLANDER! She does NOT look like Reba!

well, unless Reba were like, eighty, had gotten overweight, and had smashed her face repeatedly into a wall to attain "The Wisdom that God Gave Me."

Ahem. I guess I'm biased.

gwillybj · February 21, 2004, 01:35

All are physically fit. None would be the least bit fat. As members of the crew, it would be required of Miriam and Deirdre. It could only be expected of Corazon.

Sister Miriam Godwinson:
DOB: 4 April 2014 (Aries). Age at Unity launch ~46.
Height: 168.6 cm = 5' 6-3/8"
Weight: 55.2 kg = 121.7 lb

Lady Deirdre Sky:
DOB: 28 May 2025 (Gemini). Age at Unity launch ~35.
Height: 170.1 cm = 5' 7"
Weight: 52.2 kg = 115.1 lb

Colonel Corazon Santiago:
DOB: 5 November 2026 (Scorpio). Age at Unity launch ~34.
Height: 171.8 cm = 5' 7-5/8"
Weight: 56.8 kg = 125.2 lb

Starfarer · February 21, 2004, 04:22

Darnit, I wanna call her a frumpy fundamentalist, and none of you can stop me! I'll paste her head onto pictures of naked femle sumo wreslters!

If there are such things...

Mart · February 21, 2004, 04:51

female sumo? someone from japan could help here. i thought it's kinda sport for men only

Barinthus · February 21, 2004, 05:27

Ah, I knew it - I voted for Corazon. Scorpios are terrific. Aries are okay and I can't stand Geminis.

He probably got confused because of those wrestlers and their man-tits

Skanky Burns · February 21, 2004, 05:56

Scorpio's are great. In theory.
Then again, scorpions eat their mates afterwards, which doesn't help my impression of Santaigo any.

Mart · February 21, 2004, 06:01

Aries are so elusive, scorpios too - never earned my trust. i know little of geminis

In theory? I've already 'tested' this theory. Several times

Skanky, Skanky you are using my words from Eventis. BTW not all Scorpios are bad (there are male too), at least from my, Scorpio, point of view.

Skanky Burns · February 21, 2004, 17:55

I'm not saying they are bad at all.

Adalbertus · February 21, 2004, 18:41

Certainly not Miriam, she doesn't fit into the real ideal of beauty. Women's eyes have to be like men's feet: Big, black and moist.
Miriam's eyes are small and light ...

very much true, although the men's feet is the last thing i would like to think of when looking into a beauty's eyes

Enigma_Nova · February 22, 2004, 00:17

So nobody other than me goes for light-coloured eyes?

SynthetGod8 · February 22, 2004, 02:04

I thought Skye was Irish. yeesh.
I don't know who to vote for... someone who's going to pamper my inner masochist, someone who's knows how to give multiple orgasms, or someone who's going to spank me in the name of God.
Too much info? yeah well... so be it.
I wonder if one gets kicked (see:sacrificed) out of the Believers for looking at any part of Miriam that isn't her face?
Hell, I'd rather hang with Skye's psychic talent. she seems to be a nice girl... except for the mind worms crawling out her nose.

gwillybj · February 22, 2004, 04:27

I contend that Miriam's soul-fire burns hotter than those of all the other women of SMAC/X combined! None of those whiney little brats have nearly as much focus, intensity, or passion!

Irish eyes has an attraction for me

I'm sure it does.

I'm equally sure that she'd burn down a forest for being in God's way with that very same passion.
