COFFEE!
« on: July 22, 2012, 09:25:37 AM »

Pure random going on here (as if you'd expect anything else from me...).

Do you think starfarers have coffee? or something similar? 'Cause if you're cursing around in a sleepy ol' venture and you get attacked by some nastly space gangsta, you're really gonna need to wake up fast!


This in no way aids the game, its just pure random feel free to totally ignore me.

Does sound more about "off-topic". Got the boards wrong, maybe?

Pfff, coffee is life in general for most people. ;D
Not me.  I crawl out of bed in the morning and shake off the sleep.  No coffee required for me. :)
Same if I were attacked by a bunch of pirates.  Flip on the Mining Blaster and there's no problem.

Same here! I tend to dose a bit when i wake up... for some weird reason it helps me wake up.

And yeah, this is more of an off topic thread.

But, but, it has no caffine

Drink a few gallons of that and snort a little cocaine and I'd be happy

id imagine that starfarers have something more akin to a hypospray from star trek that keeps you alert in the event you need to be awake.

however i presume that like on star trek people will still choose to use alternate methods such as coffee i know my captains all drink coffee :D

or wait what if coffee plants went extinct? i for one would be very sad.

When you can't go on, just accept your doom. It comes to all, it is inevitable.

Also I totally had the name BEFORE the cruiser.

Then they shall drink the strongest tea! (Which technically has more caffeine than coffe). And if that is extinct, then they take caffeine pills!

I haven't slept in two days, and I've had two flour tortillas and half a cup of rice for food.

Coffee is for the weak.

(Besides, we've got... probably two hundred dollars worth of tea occupying an entire cupboard. One of the perks of being like, two-thirds of the tea club of our school.)

You know, Drinking caffeine (in tea OR coffee, or anything else for that matter...) increases your resistance to it. Meaning, if you drink too much before long you'll need to drink more for it to have to same effect.

Which is the main reason I don't drink coffee, only tea because there's less of it. ( I know tea LEAVES contain way more caffeine than coffee, but thats the leaves, not the drink.)



So I would assume that starfarers don't consume caffeine, because they'll end up costing more than it's worth.
