DICKS! DICKS EVERYWHERE!

>>16699617
thats vault 68/69 you nut job

Hoa are we going to collect and utilize this data?

rolled 22 = 22

What if all conflict was solved with dice rolling? Like that gambling vault. Also I am the Overseer.

>>16699619
No no, you don;t understand! When I say DICKS EVERYWHERE! I MEAN IT! THE WALLS ARE DICKS, THE BEDS ARE DICKS! THE FOOD IS DICK SHAPED!

>>16699643
Fred, simmer down. What do we look like to you, those wackjobs over at Nuka-Cola?

>>16699643
So some sort of Apple Vault?

>>16699654
YOU ALL LOOK LIKE DICKS!

>>16699643

I made a few concept art for your idea. Do you want something like this for decoration maybe?

Welp, might as well cover this already:
Vault 40K

>>16699685

or maybe wee can use a few vulvas too.

Multiple vertical layers, elevators, and television screens outside windows to simulate the interior of a skyscraper. Overseer under orders to deny any claims that the Vault is, in fact, underground, and all information available inside should support the fiction that the Vault is one section of a large urban building.

Window-vision control system should manipulate views (incorporating random factors) to match that from the Empire State Building. Overseer should have the option to simulate heavy storms, earthquakes, invasions, or the return of Satan's earthly dominion using the control system and machinery built into the Vault structure.

What if we put a vault, IN a vault!

A vault with five thousand cats and a pair of families tasked with caring for them.

Also, the families have been selected because they all have an allergy to pet dander.

Take your pick gentlemen.

A vault populated by geriatrics and pedophiles.

Ok, we take ten anons, and put them in a vault infested with hundreds of THOUSANDS of various spiders.

Tis a courage experiment, we must see if these anons can overcome their fears.

I got this. How about we throw a bunch of babies in one vault and leave a copy of the Codex Astartes as the sole book available?

Eh? Ehhh? Then release them after a set amount of time once they've read it 500 times!

What if we take a vault and fill it with only "that guys" and "that GM"s?

Fire. Fire everywhere. By the time we're done, we will have either created a race of fire-resistant supermen, or a pile of ashes in a burning hole in the ground.

There are no guns, televisions, pencils, or any inventions past the 1800s, barring essentials such as ventilation, light, and food dispensers, which shall be made to look old timey. The armory is filled with platemail, swords, shields, maces and such. There are enough weapons and armor to match that of other vaults tenfold. There is also armor and weapon decoration kits within the armory. All the signs will be written in Ye Olde Butchered Englishe. The vault will appear to be made out of wood, but is protected and held in place by more steel than other vaults do. This vault was made for the more likely condition that the vaults would fail, and that it would be better to start off a thousand years back rather than where we are now.

I've got an exciting idea for a vault: #09 will be located up in the plains of montana. It will have all sorts of surveillence systems installed so that the dwellers may see what is happening everywhere but they cannot do anything about it. We could gain valuable insights into Survivor's Guilt and the Effects of Witnessing Horrible Events and also the Disconnected Voyeur Perspective. The Overseer should act as the only way the vault dwellers can interact with the outside world

So get this, we build two vaults right next to eachother. The vaults are completely seperate, with the exception of a thick transparent barrier that they are able to see eachother through.

Everyone is wearing a collar rigged with explosives, and they lack the tools needed to get them off. They also lack the tools needed to break into the other vault.

Each vault has a button, which when pressed will kill a random person from the other vault.

The only way the two vaults will be able to comunicate is by writing things down and holding them up in front of the mirror.

The only entertainment available will be 1000 Blank White Cards.
And FATAL.

Lock ten human females in a vault with twenty male chimps as an experiment in social exchange in anticipation for when the monkey-men of Xondor 5 invade us.

>>16699867
But... there is nothing in Montana?

>>16699867

>>An actual email address
>>Not sage
>>Not wittiness

HES A WITCH. GET EM.

>>16699819
Babies can't read you rube.

I want dinosaur-men, make it happen or you're all fired.

We trap a man in a vault with a woman and a 100 cats. We wait to see how long the man takes to get tired of hearing how cute the kitties are.

Vaults are boring.
Damnit.

>>16699918
We have a few ideas, but in simulation we only ever get man-dinosaurs.

>>16699927
What if the vault was actually a space station and nobody inside knew?

Remember folks, I know our company motto is "The Vaults weren't meant to save anyone!" but they also aren't just meant for dicking (someone shut Ted up) around either. Each Vault is and should be a clinical experiment that will yield results well worth their initial cost down the line.

Not that it matters, since none of us are going to survive the nuclear hellstorm anyway and the entire existence of this company is as if to satisfy the whim of a dark laughing god; but that is immaterial, damn it!

We're SCIENTISTS. We do science. So lets take it again from the top, Vault experiments!

Okay, wait. I have an idea. What if we build a HUGE vault, right, and instead of an Overseer, we put in a ZAX computer. This will test whether our society will be better run by computers than humans.

Also, we can create a caste system by making the jumpsuit extruders randomly shift the pigments used in jumpsuit production.

>>16699940
PENISES! EVERYWHERE! If we will it with women...
>>16699685
>>16699708
BRILLIANT!

>>16699933
I know, the dinosaur-men formula is a hard nut to crack.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zP2UZ6YQ9Ig

A vault of modular design, built in the form of a cube each section can cycle through points on the cube to the location of any other section. Only the entrance is stationary. The cube randomly reorganises it's configuration every 24 hours.

Each section of the cube has distinct decoration to mark it different from every other section. Every month the decoration changes, changes can include up to ten variations not present during the initial months of occupation.

These functions do not begin until two years into the vault's operation.

Should any part of the position or decoration cycle become inoperable in anyway, so as to prevent the vault from carrying them out, the effected location will be flooded with water.

>>16699954
Might I suggest a mix of Human Men, Dinosaur Females, preferibly near human-size and unlikely to ripntear humansw, with a small amount of the F.E.V.?

A vault where everyone MUST conduct themselves in interpretive dance 24/7 or die.

There's really no point to this except to rid the world of interpretive dance by locking away anyone who does it.

Okay, so we fill a vault with people from the lowest possible IQ bracket and little to no education. Then fill the vault with energy weapons.

The only entertainment is a series of high fantasy novels and holovids that focus on wizards.

OKAY VAULT 99

How about, we buy some land with a gaping sinkhole in it. We start building the vault downward, into the sinkhole. The bottom floor, the one where most daily activities would take place, the floor is glass. Thick, anti-material bullet proof glass, at least 2 feet thick. None of the vault dwellers will be able to know the specifics of the glass. You can see through it, and into the abyss below. On the under side of the glass, we'll have genetically modified fungus that is designed to grow like cracking glass.

What if we put all of New Jersey in a vault?

Please?

>>16700007
But what knowledge will that gain us?

Also, I suggest a Vault filled with 50% people who speak broken English or have terrible grammar skills, and 50% Grammar Nazis. This will evaluate who will eventually dominate the Earth, while being immensely entertaining.

There is no water
There is only Nuka Cola

A vault that's built sideways, or upside down.

A vault with nothing but grenades and grenade launchers in the armory.

A vault with only 17th century weaponry in the armory.

A vault with a population composed entirely of paranoid schizophrenics.

A vault built using only monochrome materials. Everything inside except the vault dwellers themselves is black and white.

A prison vault with one population of criminals, and a separate population of staff and wardens.

A vault with a food extruder that only produces foods that measure at least 800,000 on the Scoville scale.

A vault with no food extruder at all but with a large underground farm, including livestock.

A vault filled with deadly traps in every room and hallway.

A vault with its own mandatory paper currency, VaultBucks, which cannot be produced within the vault and are designed to easily wear.

A Vault in which half the people are human, and the other half and robots designed to look human. A human will be terminated every time a robot dies, and vice versa. In addition, the Vault will construct a new robot for every human that is born. There are 2 Overseers, one who looks out for the human population, who is a robot. And the overseer for the robot population would be a human.

This is to test out the human/robot coexistence potential.

Gentlemen.

100 of the nerdiest, aspiest, OCD'st men + 10 of the hottest women we can find. The women will be used as reward for any scientific breakthrough these men come up with.

Failing that, stock the place with pizza?

>>16700060
I suggest we construct a vault entirely filled with robots, who all think they're human. The Overseer's letter will inform him that Chinese Androids have infiltrated the vault.

A vault with one man and 20 protectron programmed to think they are human females.

>>16700022
And set up bombs inside!
Brilliant!

A vault where any noise conducted at volumes greater than a whisper will result in termination due to laser turrets. In addition, certain areas are defended by sight based laser defences. In some places the floor has been removed, and must be scaled using handholds on the walls and ceilings. The armoury contains nothing but stealth suits, stealthboys and short bladed weapons.

Ninja vault ahoy.

A vault where hydrogen atoms are used as currency.

>>16700084
Knock it off Carl. We already tricked Chinese Missile Command into thinking New Jersey was the center of our civilization. Building a Vault over it is just making things harder on ourselves.

Just about everything in this thread can be used as a Paranoia game. And it will.

Good bye, /tg/, for my friends will surely kill me.

>>16700032
We will learn what people would do if their society could just suddenly collapse and kill them all at any point. Would they be partying, or be isolationists?

>>16700084
Remove all tanning beds first, make them suffer before they die.

..Wait, give them a stipulation once sealed inside, one tanning bed, but if they use it, the vault explodes.

Lets see how long they hold out.

>>16700102
We should still bomb New Jersey

Just to make sure

>>16700102
But he DOES have a point. If we fill it with bombs, and nukes actually DO fall, we can blow them up, and there will be an awesome looking crater where the Devil's Hockey Stadium used to be!

Let's do it! Bomb New Jersey!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Glm3o7MWg_k

>>16700116
That implies they don't use spray-on

>>16700161
There is also a locker filled with spray-on tan. Opening it also destroys the vault.

>>16700060
this is in my setting now

>>16700161
We remove the spray on, ALL OF IT

Also, bombing Jersey is problematic, Guido ghouls man, no thank you.

>>16700166
>>16700172

What if we lock the locker, clearly mark it as to where the spray on is, but once they get it open, it's just a bricked-in space.

>>16700172
How about this:

The locker has tons of hair spray, but it's poisoned. Using the hairspray will kill you, and there is a bulletin explaining this to the citizens of the vault. Then we see how long it takes for the women to kill themselves.

It's a study into impulse control.

>>16700196
Conversely I would like to offer as much steroids to them as possible.

The New jersey Vault is like any other Vault. Except it has no roof. It's a test of Nuclear fire on the human body.

>>16700172
In the rest of North America, you have super mutants. In New Jersey, you have guidos.

I have an idea.
One man.
And a box full of puppets.

How about a Vault where gender roles are reversed? Right down to the point where males are called "girls," and vice versa? We could finally figure out whether sexuality and gender identity are nature or nurture?

>>16700254
ghouls from Long Island would be just as bad.

>>16700292
Also pegging.

We take seven little people and two hundred partially starved honey badgers and put them in the same vault. It will allow us to properly design the new dwarf fortress update

>>16699940

This Vault consists of several segregated sections.
Section 1 has the armory and is only populated by scientists.
Section 2 has the scientific suite and is only populated by soldiers.
Section 3 has a duplicate scientific suite and a scientist population
Section 4 has a duplicate armory and a military population.

I vote nude vault.

Exercise is mandatory, weapons training is mandatory, if you want to continue your line of genes you must win single combat against your mate, we film it all and make millions.

>>16700324
Well obviously, that's part of the Gender Roles.
Vault 63?
Should it include hormone alterations or no?

these are good ideas but.....I say we try something new....A SPACE VAULT!

What do you guys think about a Vault that has had all of it's history textbooks changed to speculative fiction?

Fellow Capitalist,How about we create a Vault that teach the people inside the vault about communism and see how it turn into glorious paradise for everyone in the Vault.
Then we open the vault later on and watch them get torn apart by raiders while trying to teach them about communal living.

A vault made out of vaults that vault. Also ironic torture. Something like a Vault 69 with just one man and many women, but not so lame. Set the eggheads on it. And let's order asian food today, okay?

A cault where every now and then a fucking blood curdling scream is played full volume over the loudspeakers. Totally random times.

A Vault with only 20 beds, a limited food production, and 150 residents.

Allocation of these resources are controlled by automatic locks and robot guards, and access goes to the top gold-earners in the Vault's self-contained text-based MMO, Knights and Knaves (c).

For added flavor, the armory will contain only medieval weapons, and winners will be convinced through subliminal suggestion and psychoactive drugs in their food that they have developed magical powers.

A vault where, once a month, a single vault resident will be killed at random in their sleep and replaced by a robot in their likeness. The robot would act exactly like the vault resident did, mimic their actions, mannerisms, and expressions to a T, but would never blink.

Once over half of the vault residents are replaced, the replacement robots will be created without human skin. They'll still act exactly like the human they replaced, though.

Ooooor, a Vault lit entirely by candles and no form of electronic light. There's a massive candle repository that anyone has access to, especially the robots programmed to steal anywhere from 1-10 candles in the dead of night, each night.

How about a vault made up of modual obstacle course like parts that can be re-arranged to provide a near infinite variety of tests for the residents to solve? the vault will be ruled by a computer overseer with a large supply of that deadly neurotoxin we have, just in case the population revolt. We'll have to model it's personality after somebody, how about the CEO's secretary, Carol?

A vault where everything is normal for two months.

After that time period, the Overseer receives a message. Every single day, the computer will give him a task to do, and if he fails to complete it or explains the situation to anyone, he will be killed. The tasks are taken from several lists of terms, nouns, adjectives, and verbs that are arranged somewhat randomly. A good example of one of the first commands would be: REARRANGE DESK WITHIN AN HOUR.

As time goes on, the randomness increases, and scenarios such as "WALK ON HANDS SINGING PATRIOTIC SONGS THROUGH THE VAULTS" become viable. This continues for about a year, after which time the Overseer is given a completely impossible command made to look like a software glitch, such as "BANANA HANDS TO THE COUNTER KITCHEN BUCKET SOFTLY 516-&341" and summarily executed in his sleep, no matter what he attempts to do. The death will be made to look like a suicide.

When a new Overseer is appointed, the cycle starts over. Should no Overseer be appointed after two months, the cycle will start over with random vault citizens instead.

A vault full of religious fundamentalists of a dozen different religions. We shall see if they can learn to tolerate each other or not.

A vault filled with fans of nuka-cola and nuka-pepsi. They will have colour coded jumpsuits for their prefered brand and seperate dorms.

An extra-tough Vault with a system of pre-recorded messages that will play within it. There is only one exit within this Vault and it cannot be manually opened. There are no means within the vault to force it open.

The first message will describe that this Vault was the only one which could be fitted with an ion shield, a prototype of an extremely high technology defensive measure. Vault citizens should be reassured that they are untouchable no matter what weapons and where the enemy deploys them. This is a lie.

The second message will play some time after the Vault has been occupied. It will say that the war has been greatly less severe than was anticipated. Apart from a few hotspots America has survived and defeated its enemies, and although order has collapsed it is being rebuilt.

From this point on the Vault will receive regular updates about the progress of the government forces are taking back the country. Growing crops and trees will be described. A utopian political system and new, greater America will be described. Every update will be more positive and more appealing. Even world peace will be described as attained in these messages.

Eventually the messages will describe the new government reclaiming the area the Vault is in. They will say they are unable to disable the Vault's unique defense system and that the citizens should hang on in there. Messages describing repeated failure to disable the shield will continue for several decades, each sounding less and less positive. Eventually the Vault citizens will receive a message that attempts to disable the shield have been stopped and they will not be released from their Vault. There will be no further messages after this point.

A vault where, through a "shipping error," the only food is bacon. The vault lacks exercise rooms, and the layout of the vault is designed to be inconducive to running or exercise of any kind.

>>16705497

All the inhabitants should be orthodox jews.

How about we build a vault full of objectivists and laize-faire capitalists? A utopia where laws are minimal and great minds can be free to experiment and create as they see fit without big government or the small minded masses geting in the way? Just to make sure the vault is never corrupted we'll build it at the bottom of the sea!

>>16705341
This one is great.

>>16705459
That's...

horrible!

>>16705459
Wouldn't they have to communicate with an AI, or is this a one-way communication?

>>16705591
I know.

Vault without washing machines. Let's see if the dwellers become nudists, die of the smell or learn to use shower for washing.

How about we put all of California and Washington in a Vault and then build more vaults in it to confuse the populace. Then we simulate a nuclear war and watch the effects over the next 400 years, allowing things to grow at a natural rate and constantly adding new monsters like those 'Cazadors' that the genetics lab created last week.

>>16705607
Whichever you feel is better. I imagine having an AI could make for a ton of fun in a Fallout game, but I hadn't imagined one - I'd intended simply fake incoming transmissions and the means to reply being discovered as damaged upon entering the Vault or somesuch.

>learn to use the shower or a sink for washing

Woooo-ooooh!

How about a vault that randomly seals its self off, preferably areas with many children, for three years at a time. Food is still provided, but it is bitter and unsatisfying. Lights are still on, but they go from bright and flashing to a low level that slowly strobes. Things like "they will kill you" and "do not sleeeeeep" will be whispered over coms in a way that only a couple at a time will hear. Sometimes, in the middle of their sleep cycle (it will change with their sleep patterns) a banshee like shriek will wake them, slowly devolving into an awful laugh.

Then after that the door opens and it doesn't happen again for a year or so. Success is measured by how many years you can go before the entire vault is filled with paranoid lunatics.

Overseer is instructed to fap publicly when the trapped people cry.

We'll call it... Disney Land II.

>>16705681

How do we capture a banshee?

I have a few assuming the usual 1000 person occupancy:

In a vault, there exists only ten suits and no means to produce any other clothing.

Variation: In a vault, there is enough clothing for everyone except ten people. The clothing are all custom-tailored single-piece jumpsuits that cannot be shared.

Variation: The jumpsuits are all one size, and easily passed around, but there will always be ten people unable to wear anything.

Variation: There are enough jumpsuits for everyone. However, 990 are white, and 10 are red. The red ones have been permanently assigned to random personnel.

In a reflection-less vault, 100 people are discovered to have tattoos ranging from 001 to 100 on their bodies in areas that are not visible to the owners. Five years later, one person will be discovered to have the tattoo 000.

>16705693
It'll be a remix of the cries and screams of the previously trapped people. Produced by a special DJ computer.

Some of these are really good. It's making me want to run a Fallout game where the party are self-styled 'Vault Discoverers'.

>>16705707
what's stopping people from making clothing from bedsheets or some different material?

>>16705459
Maybe instead of the depressing ending, instead we loop the messages. Something happened that made it really hard to get to the Vault, but don't worry help is on the way!

And it has been for over 5 generations now.

>>16705707

You know, that tatoo one could be a huge fail if the people simply don't give a fuck about them. Apathy, fuck yeah.

All residents have a hidden, identical tattoo of a snake on the sole of their right foot. The only clothing type is large, one piece 'footy' pajamas that cover everything except the neck and head. Being naked around others is forbidden on the grounds of modesty.

One year later, the overseer will 'discover' a corpse and a hastily written note warning that the vault had been infiltrated and to beware the person with a snake tattoo.

>>16705772

Good luck keeping people's clothes on.

>>16705750
That might be better for potential plots anyway because you could have 'believers' and 'unbelievers' as a plot divide. On the other hand, maybe even with the final notice of defeat people would vainly still try to believe.

Maybe the last message could say that one of the scientists is remaining behind and devoting his life's work to disabling the shield. This fictional scientist has a name, face and personality and messages from him are transmitted to the Vault, so the citizens end up talking to him, baking a birthday cake on his birthday and beaming the image out to him, singing songs to him, alternately thanking him and ranting at him for not making progress, etc. And the guy just doesn't even exist.

Then if the messages cut out for whatever reason it's even more depressing because they'll think he just died and nobody knows or nobody cares. They might even have a funeral in effigy inside the Vault.

We create a vault that is programmed to emulate being haunted. The program will be inactive at the start of the experiment, but will activate the moment somebody dies.

the haunting will also be confined to the area where people have died, maybe have hologram tech or something implemented there. messing with the temperature and whispered voices playing from speakers hidden inside the walls.

>>16705772
Good luck preventing people from talking about their snake tattoos beforehand.

>>16705757

In a sealed room of 1000 people, 100 of them are different from the 900 others, and each of the 100 are different from each other. There is no explanation to this at all.

I don't know if you've even been to a school, but social status has been elevated or diminished on less.

>>16705772

But what happens if they tell each other about their tattoos?

"You know it was the weirdest thing, when I got the acceptance letter for this vault they told me I had to get a snake tattoo on my foot."

"Holy crap me too!"

>>16705739

Nothing, but they will still stand out as 'those ones who didn't have clothes originally'.

>>16705792
Oh, I fucking love this one.

There will be constant classical music playing in the background. The music will fit the moment and the place. Bedtime will play gentle music like Claire de Lune, and if a fight breaks out suddenly the music will switch to something like Marche Slave, or Mars, The Bringer of War. You and a girl fall in love? The Swan.

Then there's a second Vault that is extremely similar, with the exception that the music is not played by instruments, but it's all done a-Capella instead.

>>16705459
DUDE
AWESOME

>>16705805
I would definitely give my clothes to one of the 10 naked ones, providing it's a hot chick. Imagine the points I'd score.

Two Vault complexes contained within one Vault covering, separated by an extremely thick and durable (nigh-invulnerable) but perfectly transparent plastic wall. Each Vault has minor but significant differences in the distribution guidelines for allowed leisure time, food and drink rations, reading material, approved politics, etc.

>>16705827
I always wanted to have my own sound track.

>>16705750
Nah, the depressing ending is the best one

The vault is divided into 50 small self-sufficient sections, all hidden away from each other. Every section contains twenty people, ten men, ten women.

Every occupant believes that the vault only contains 20 people, not 1000.

Every six months, a common wall in a generally unused area between two of the sections sinks into the floor while everyone is asleep.

Variation: each 'mini-society' of 20 will have been raised from birth around items of only one color, such as red or green. Except for their skin tone / eye color, everything is this color, including hair, which is dyed daily when shampooed.

>>16705850

Well, you need a bare minimum of 500 people with a roughly 40/60 male to female ratio to maintain basic genetic diversity between Human beings an multiply our population.

So you seal 400 men in the vault and 600 women

All of them are homosexual

You have their vault feed them news that they are the last human beings and remove all turkey basters or any like items

We take one thousand couples and place them into two separate vaults that are located right next to each other. They are completely separated, but in the bottom there is a lounge where there is a 2 feet thick wall of a clear, indestructable material. There is no means of communication between the two vaults except for the Overseer's terminal. The Overseers (a couple themselves) are forbidden from revealing this link to anyone.

This vault is designed to test survivor's guilt (in the overseers) and the bonds of fidelity. Can couples stay together when they can see, but not touch each other?

>>16699770

Rawlin.

This deserves archival. Turns out /tg/ has some surprising good Vault ideas.

Two connected vaults. One is filled with good old patriotic Americans, the other is filled with dirty red cChinese Communists we'll have kidnapped. We shall learn if war, war never changes.

Asside from the generator and lights the vault only contains large patch of soil under sunlamps, enough food to last a year and an abundance of raw materials. The inhabitants will all be people who know noting about agriculture or how to build anything.

Proposal for a battery of Vaults.

Convicted murderers, rapists, sociopaths, and other 'non-desirables' will be heavily screened for true mental illnesses. Those who exhibit truly legitimate mental handicaps or flaws will be placed within Vaults.

One in which any and all forms of rule-breaking are punished with the traditional incarceration.

One in which the punishment is corporal - physical damage, whippings, beatings, public humiliation.

One in which all transgressions are punished through summary execution.

All Vault-dwellers will be fully informed of the 'rules' upon entry, and the first week of each Vault's duration will be spend making sure that they truly DO understand.

Any children born within these Vaults will be removed form general populace and raised by the Control Vault - in which the convicted felons who exhibit a lack of biological mental corruption will raise the children with the help of the finest educational and informational robots, programs, and facilities.

Vaults A, B, C will be extended tests on how humans react to the different methods of correctional reprimanding.

Vault D will be an intensive study into Nature vs. Nurture.

>>16705889
A vault where everyone begins with basic rations, minimum sleeping time, zero luxuries and the harshest work hours and all normal privileges are attained by possession of cards which are distributed at random among the populace after one hour. One of these cards grants the Overseer position.

The cards can be used in a functional game but at least one card must be bet on the outcome of any game played. A challenge to the game to a given player by a given player cannot be refused more than twice.

>>16705954

And seeds. I forgot the seeds.

The Vault Dwellers will all have access to terminals, each of which has access to an internal network where a large amount of information is stored. One of the websites which is universally visited is an anonymous imageboard.

At the end of a period of time (couple of months? years?) everyone will see what the other people have posted, and to whom. We'll see the effects of anonymity and the effects of having this anonymity taken away from people.

Truly the most horrifying vault ever created. I would be fucking lynched.

>>16705955
>One in which all transgressions are punished through summary execution.

We shall call it the Draco vault.

>We'll see the effects of anonymity

we all know the result of that test

>the effects of having this anonymity taken away from people.

I don't think it would be chaos but it would result in some people being ostracized

>>16705955

You've put a lot of thought into something that is both absurd, and wouldn't work to begin with.

People that are genuinely mentally disturbed criminals will kill eachother off. It's called prison and we already have that.

And we already take the young of prisoners if they are birthed during their stay.

>>16699770
Nothing can go wrong!

A vault made up up 990 people with congenital blindness and 10 sighted people.

>>16706007
Then create Vaults E, F, G, H of same test - those who are convicted and guilty of their crimes, but exhibit no mental unsoundness.

Maybe THEN I'll stop having fun.

A vault where the only clothing items are full animal costumes, one for each member of the vault. Each comes with a short handbook on 'roleplaying' the animal in question.

A vault where, once per week, at random, one adult is chosen to be 'Ruler of the Vault' for one week, and have command of all vault members besides the Overseer, who can also veto any of the Ruler's commands.

A Vault where every single member of the population receives one license which allows them to kill one other specific member of the Vault population without legal punishment. Every license permits the murder of a different individual. These licenses may be seen or unseen, recorded or unrecorded, as you prefer.

A vault where everyone has a small explosive embedded in their brains. Also, throughout the entire vault there are a thousand specially marked chairs.

For one hour every day, loud music will be played over the vault's loudspeakers. At this time, Every resident will be required to seek out one of the special chairs and sit in it, lest their explosive go off when the music stops and kill them instantly. There are always exactly enough chairs for everyone alive in the vault, with chairs going inactive after deaths, and re-activating when a child passes their tenth birthday. Only one person may use one of these chairs at a time. Oh, and the chairs aren't clustered together: they're spread evenly throughout all levels of the vault.

The goal is to test co-operation skills among large groups of people, by way of a lethal game of musical chairs.

>>16706083
They can also be traded.

>>16706099

Brilliant!

>>16706114
Good idea, but only ever 1-for-1, I think.

A vault where the only inhabitants are trees.

>>16706130
A vault where the only inhabitants are people who *think* they are trees.

>>16706126
But man, just think about it.
Get the license for yourself, and you are invincible.
Then again, the holder of it might decide to "Cash it in" right there

A Vault where all the inhabitants are Ponies who think they are trees.

>>16706143
Let's up this a level. Whoever kills the Overseer becomes the new Overseer

>>16706148
But ponies aren't capable of sentient thought

A vault where all the inhabitants are men who think they posses the souls of characters from video games or anime.

The vault was designed to never open.

>>16706143

And if you for whatever reason want to kill a person you have to get the card. Will you trade for it? Try to convince the owner of your cause? Maybe get a friend to trade for it then pass it on to you so nobody knows you did it? What about fear of revenge? Will you get the card to kill the person who has the card you want if necessary? Ah the possibilities.

>>16706143
You aren't literally invincible, you're just invincible within the license system. Someone could still kill you but it would be illegal under the license rules.

It's really iffy if the Vault would go along with it or not. The Overseer might decide to confiscate or destroy the licenses. The point is it can go a bunch of ways. I contemplated including AI turrets that would destroy any killer other than a licensed one to force the licenses to be used, but I decided against it in the end.

>>16706160
And the Overseer is the only one with access to the Entertainment Tapes Archive.

>>16706148
A vault full of robots who think they are humans who think they are ponies, who think they are trees, which don't think at all.

>>16706164
They're Ponies uplifted through genetic engineering, then conditioned to believe they are trees.

Why would anyone do that, you ask? Wrong question, we are Vault Tec, we just do shit because we can.

>>16706007
>calling a vault project absurd

THEN IT MUST BE BUILT POSTHASTE!

It fits right in with the full retard "ITS A SOCIAL EXPERIMENT!" ideas of the other vaults

>>16705737
Okay, so who would actually be up for this? I'm on GMT and I'd be willing to run but we'd need to decide on a time and system. I don't really know much about potential Fallout systems.

These are the Vaults I have posted in the thread:
>>16706083
>>16705853
>>16705459
I'm not saying I would use these, I'm just pointing them out so there's some example of Vaults that occurred to me.

The hook: you are essentially normal (inasmuch as a normal one exists) Fallout characters of diverse backgrounds with a single unifying goal - for whatever purpose, it is your intention to investigate and/or open as many Vaults as possible. You do not know how everything about the number, location or purpose of the Vaults but you have greater knowledge of this kind of thing than a regular Fallout-verse human and you at least know where you might find that kind of knowledge, if you don't know all the knowledge itself.

You might be a Vault survivor yourself, a disguised Raider or Tribal scouting out potential targets, just a somebody especially interested in the Vaults, a descendant of the original Vault-Tec project checking up on results, a BoS operative looking to obtain technology... whatever. S'all good.

As our long-term goal is to gather information to better prepare us for life on other planets, I propose a vault where various areas are flooded with water.

Vault dwellers must make use of pressurised diving suits to move around in the flooded zones, as a simulation of life on an oceanic planet's seabed. This will give us a great deal of information regarding how humans adapt to deep-sea environments where large pressurised suits are needed to move amongst dry habitats.

In a similar (and less expensive vein), we could build a vault where the atmosphere will kill anyone who spends more than a few minutes breathing it. Thus, gasmasks and other breathing equipment would be supplied to all residents, and be required to be worn at all times. This would prepare them for life on planets with toxic atmospheres.

>>16706362

one of the vaults should be a recreation of the conditions present on the moon Titan

>>16706322
I would be VERY interested

>>16706386
Sadly, you appear to be the only one!

Still, I've made an IRC room. #VaultGame on sup/tg/. I'll hang around for a while and people who are interested can come and we'll discuss specifics.

>>16706458

Remember that fake Russian experiment story that was very popular on /x/ ages ago? The one where they gave prisoners gas that prevented them fro falling asleep for ages? That. In a vault.

>>16706543
They all become flesh monsters or something?

>>16706553
Yeah, that one.

>>16706543
a vault where one half of the population is croats. and one half is serbs.

>>16706543

>>16699875
This is awesome

Take some babies, have robots rear them. When the humans come of age (Say 16), their memories are wiped apart from language. Study the effects of attempting to create a new society. Every 3 generations or so, wipe out the population using nerve gas or radiation, then repeat the process.

A vault where everyone is routinely told that they are exposed to radiation and that mutations are likely and must be eliminated - but which is actually completely sealed.

A Vault where everything (EVERTYHING) is laced with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinidad_Scorpion_Butch_T_pepper

Also, a Vault where from childhood they are told that they are superhuman ie resistance to fire.

Vault Tec vs Black Mesa

Go.

>>16706718
>not Vault Tec vs. Aperture Science

>>16706718
Barring any fuckups and nuclear war: Vault-Tec
Greater reach, influence, finances and deeper involvement with Govt.

Purely on basis of tech: Black Mesa
Its hard to beat Gluon Gun and interdimensional teleportation.

>>16706458
>>16706322
There's two people interested in the IRC room now. Would anyone else like to give it a shot?

A vault full of candy and a childish and greedy A.I.

Any attempts at taking the candy will be met with cruel and unfair measures.

A vault that is simply one football-stadium sized square room with no dividing walls. Lavatories are inter spaced along the outside edge, and meals are dispensed from random segments of wall each day.

On the far wall, so as to keep the citizens from being completely disoriented, is a giant robotic facsimile of an eye, five stories tall, that stares unblinkingly down on the population. Occasionally, for no perceptible reason, the eye will twitch violently and focus on an individual vault dweller.

After 25 years, should there be survivors, the vault is pumped full of psychoactive chemicals which encourage heavily paranoid schizophrenia.

A vault where shortly after entry apparently secret documents are discovered revealing that one member of the vault is in fact the disguised US President who was unable to take refuge in government shelters. The documents identify a number of unknown 'protectors' and advise that the President's best defense is in anonymity. They also say the vault will open automatically should the President be killed.

A vault where all inhabitants are fed a protein-and-calcium-rich diet, encouraged to exercise constantly, and injected with mild to moderate levels of steroids and growth hormones. The intent is to find out the best ratio of muscle and bone mass to work efficiently in space, and test which exercises best achieve that. As a side effect, we also learn just how far we can safely push the human body and might even get advances in treating giantism.

A vault containing a single active nuclear warhead in pristine condition, and a red button that activates it, in case of emergency. Of course, the red button is covered by a bulletproof glass housing that only a key possessed by the Overseer will unlock. Of course, the lock on the glass housing is broken, and can be opened and activated by anyone.

In addition, the air ventilation system has a serious problem, in that a faulty fan blade unreachable by vault citizens intermittently lets off an ear-piercing shriek that, due to the echoing nature of the filtration system, ricochets around the vault, usually emitting from a ceiling grate just over the shoulder of a random vault resident. This happens on average around 100 times a day, making sure a tenth of the vault's 1000 residents experience it in a given day, assuming no overlap.

This, however, would prove to be a fallacious assumption, as for whatever reason certain individual citizens hear it much, much more often than others, to the point that many vault citizens question whether the noise exists at all.

I wanna see what vault i'll be in so rolling dem numbers.

A vault populated entirely by shotas wearing extra revealing maid uniforms and food extruders that only put out chocolate sauce.

also, me...and a water park :3

>>16707092
But all of the food is laced with chemicals that make you impotent. Remember, this is Vault-Tec!

>>16707127
challenge accepted !

we will live solely on semen.

>>16707163
Chemicals in the air also dissolve your testes.

>>16706458
>>16706322
>>16706771
I'm throwing out one final advertisement for this. I'll be DMing, there are three other interested players. It looks like the setting will be Texas and the time will be a little after the time of the first Fallout game.

If you're interested, stop on by #VaultGame on the sup/tg/ IRC.

>>16707209
stop being a faggot

posted this before but hey, why not.

partial sensory deprivation. sight and hearing are....made impossible via some non-intrusive means. touch, smell, and taste still there.

the vault would have to be designed so that its practically impossible for it to break down unless its split in two via an earthquake or something.

the objective is simply to observe how the population functions under such conditions.

A Vault in which all residents are told that gendered pronouns, and indeed any gendered or gender-identifying words, are strictly prohibited on pain of termination. There is no he or she, only it. There is no man or woman, only person. There are no words for genitals that can not also be applied to both genders. And so on. Anyone violating the rule will be swiftly terminated and disposed of; all rooms in the Vault are constantly monitored. Any teaching material for children has been wiped clean of gendered or gender-identifying words.

Build a vault large enough for a viable population of around 5-600, but with no internal walls. Access areas, plumbing, food processors, waste disposal and electrical systems should be accessible through labeled floor panels, but the dining area, commons, bathrooms, sleeping quarters (devoid of bedsheets), armory, and any other living space is on one open floor. The vault should be BARELY big enough for those functions to all occur, but otherwise comfortably furnished and supplied. There are only enough jumpsuits for a small population of adolescents, perhaps numbering 75-100 subadults of various size ranges, and no way to produce new ones.

The point would be to make any sense of privacy or "personal space" impossible.

A vault where everyone is forced to be at their most beautiful. People are fed according to their needs ("genetics" is not a viable option to be fat), people excersize regularly, and are dressed very sexy, in a way that accentuates their already extreme loveliness.

However, they grow up with the image that "big is beautiful".

>>16707420
>Cont'd
The Vault must be situated in a geologically inaccessible location, such as deep under a high mesa or by a crater-formed lake. The door will be sealed upon beginning of the test. 200 years after the last member of the initial test population dies, the vault door will be reopened, assuming environmental recovery has progressed sufficiently. A second panel by the door will be opened automatically, to provide one Garden of Eden Creation Kit to the Vault population. A holovid will then provide education in the safe use of the GECK.

The Vault population will then be forced to choose between a life in the protected and bountiful Eden that the GECK can provide, the greatest dream of so many survivors, or a meager existence in the cramped, yet by now comfortable and familiar, Vault.

Vault population is made up of no more than Three extended families. Overseer position is instead made into a council consisting of the "Head" of each family.

Vault is entirely normal, but has the singular flaw of its door being designed to open should anyone on either side knock on it with "Shave and a haircut, two bits." When opened this way, the door remains open for a week, and cannot be closed by any means.

This is designed to test the longevity and durability of cultural memes.

The vault is without flaw and a perfectly comfortable home for the first ten years. Ten years to the day after the vault closes, however, a booming radio-jockey style voice will come on the PA, and announce loudly that it is "TORNADO TUESDAY!" All ventilation systems will cease producing a comforting cross-breeze, and instead produce gale-force winds.

Ten years after this, "TSUNAMI THURSDAY!" will be appended to the schedule, and the fire suppression system will dump gallons of water into the vault corridors and chambers, swamping the entire vault.

Ten years later, alliteration is thrown out the window as "HURRICANE SATURDAY!" becomes a weekly event, as well.

As the first Tornado Tuesday is designed to not take place on an actual Tuesday, and Saturday is programmed to come between Thursday and Tuesday, the test is to see if residents stick to the real calendar, or adopt a new one to accurately reflect the weekly disasters.

>>16707732
I have a feeling this Vault will produce many mutants.

This vault is in two parts, two unique vaults that are in no way identical. Only one vault is originally populated. Procreation is encouraged, and when children are born among the first vault dwellers, they are forcibly removed to the second vault to be raised their entire lives by robots under the pretext of it being a "nursery."

After the original vault dwellers die out (or are killed off to keep to timeframe), the grown-up children will in turn be encouraged to procreate, and their offspring shuffled into the other vault. This will be the last time that this is done.

50 years after this, the computer will tell the overseer of each vault (for there would be two) that every year, five children must be "released" to the outside world, and they must take in five children from the outside. In reality, of course, the vaults are simply swapping children, each side being told they're from the outside/are now on the outside.

After the first generation of vault dwellers die/are killed, the vault's educational systems will be purged of all references to the outside world, or modified into the outside being a mirror of the vaults.

The test is to see how quickly both sides come to blows over who is outside and who is inside.

The Vault has a suggestion box. Each week Vault dwellers are required to submit at least one suggestion to the suggestion box. The Vault is supplied with enormous reservoirs of extra paper supplies for this purpose. Each week one suggestion will be randomly selected from those submitted to the selection box the previous week and enforced on pain of death amongst the Vault populace.

Upon entry to the vault, each citizen gives blood, and then is assigned an ID card with a ranking symbol on it.

There are seven ranks in all, which dictate such things as who can sleep in what bunk, who gets how much food, who can go into what areas of the vault, who can be Overseer, who can wear what clothes, and so on. It is strongly implied that rank is based on "superior and desirable genes," but in truth it is almost entirely random. Children are issued I.D. cards on birth, which most often waver mostly around the same level as their parents, but occasionally are of an entirely different rank.

Then, 100 years later, all doors and machines respond to the ID cards as if they were their opposite on the spectrum. This means 1 and 7 would be swapped, 2 and 6 would be swapped, and so on.

This would repeat itself every 100 years, or until the vault's population has killed itself off.

>>16708150
Add suggestion: get rid of the suggestion box.

Now what, bitch

>>16708291
The vault then becomes the Tornado Tuesday vault.

>>16708291
The suggestion box is removed for one week. Repeat this indefinitely and you're fine. If you want to avoid this then you can aggravate the suggestions with:
>No suggestion may be submitted twice

Or if you want to be much more sinister:
>Anyone who suggests 'Remove the suggestion box' is removed and murdered by the robot intelligence operating the suggestion box when the next week starts. The Vault populace are informed that 'Murder [that person]' was the suggestion selected for the previous week.

>>16708329
Then I enter nonsense. "banana my jelly 4 times a video"
I WILL break the system.

>>16708329
So why not just have "Murder [VAULT RESIDENT] with [RANDOM METHOD]" be the suggestion, and have the population carry it out?

More fun that way.

>>16708366
If a random suggestion that does not make sense is chosen then the Vault's life support shuts down upon the commencement of the next week until a suggestion that makes sense is chosen.

>>16708372
Sure, if you want.

---

Another good experiment process would be for the suggestion to switch to non-randomness after a certain point, for a certain period of time. In this mode it would always select the suggestion of one specific Vault resident.

A vault where if a thread is allowed to go past page 15 everyone dies.

A Vault where all the inhabitants are mind-wiped. The Overseer shall proclaim himself to be god, creating the Vault and the people within it. All knowledge of the outside world is forbidden. After 200 years, the Vault automatically opens, and the information database declassifies all facts about the outside world. If the Overseer reveals that the Vault isn't the only thing in existence, the entire Vault will be automatically gassed.

A vault who's society is build on a form of arranged polyandry. 2-3 boys are betrothed to a slightly older girl. Will this tame or unleash male possessiveness? Will women view men as property and fight to possess more than they are alotted?

All residents and newborns are given a single hollow, intact eggshell with their name on it. Initially, they are told it is part of a psychological profiling exam, that they must have it on them at all times, and not to break the egg.

If any citizen breaks or leaves 50 feet of their egg, they are terminated publicly.

The only exception to this rule is the Overseer, who is chosen at entry/birth, and given no egg.

>>16712358
I could see this one being real in-universe.

A vault with a gravity modifying generator.
The generator would engage at random for a random amount of time, making the gravity any non-lethal amount (Again, set at random).

Continuing this, make the generator display clear patterns for a short time and then break the pattern etc.

The same principle as applied to ambient sound, with a humming or screeching noise instead of gravity.

a vault filled only with /b/tards

>>16714489

oh, and /d/fags
