Eleventh Post!

Why did I always get kudos from COMMENT_ME_JAPANESE_TITS? Why did I never get kudos from Carl Gauss? What's a girl got to do to attract a studly mathematician to her principia-mathematica-omegaverse fanfic? I'd proved the number 4 at least twenty times! But no, Gauss and his cute flowery signature were nowhere to be seen! Just me, the Hell Hounds, and the stalwart tit-requester. Typical.

Re: Puzzles - Teammate 2025 - Build Jerry-Rigged Saw

==> BUILD JERRY-RIGGED SAW
If we assembled the right components, we can jerry-rig a saw and cut through the door to reach Captain Houston's office. He's not there, of course, but his ID card's on his desk, his cat is under the desk (and pettable for an achievement), and he's left out a bunch of notes. There's a crossword puzzle, a mixtape, and a transcript of a game of Innovation that he was playing - but with who?

Aliens, apparently. Each puzzle contains sections of signed language that we have to decode from context. If we complete enough puzzles, we absorb enough information to solve the password reset questions on his computer, unlocking the communications device and a small message from our alien sponsors.

> (roughly translated) Are you alive? You were not responding. Send us location numbers. We will come to your location. We will take small life fragments. You will give small life fragments. (combination for safe)

Perfect! We can send the aliens a distress signal and they'll rescue us. Of course, we'll have to send that message in their language, and since it's a signed language, we have to act it out. You can check out some of the creative solutions people submitted here, ranging from the traditional (acting it out with their limbs) to the creative (noodles and pipe cleaners).

Once we do that, the aliens hear our message and come to get us, and right before they dock ... our ship blows up? Wait, that can't be right, can it?
