Traitor QM Checkers telling people to stay out off of the disposals belt so that they definitely do that and wind up in the grinder always makes me laugh. but I also have a special place in my heart for the one shot special that was Human/Xeno Hybrid Monstrosity Checkers. He just wanted some smokes, man.
Now that was xeno hybrid checkers something special. Personally I love radio DJ checkers, interview an Eldritch abomination has be a plateau I hope I will reach as a spessmenz
QM Checkers is a classic due to the sheer amount of shenanigans, but I'd say my favorite just because of how devious and truly powerful they could be... Checkers the Chemist.
I really would like to see goon miner Checkers, I think you'd like this job. Easy to understand but if you dig deep, it's insanely deep. Also, very comfy. On space maps you pull the asteroids into mineral magnet or take the shuttle to the diner and travel around asteroid field, on ocean maps you mine in the trench which is basically underwater lavaland. And it has sharks with machine guns My opinion may be biased because miner is currently my favourite job on goon
Checkers I love your CE videos, but you have to remember to actually turn the SMES units on. You have the Input enabled, but the output is disabled, so no power is actually getting distributed to the station.
Another stream where chats losing its mind about power, and checkers someone where else, think he visits engineering one point and looked all active so wondering if same mistake xD That’s funny
I like every kind of Checkers. Maybe the QM Checkers is most iconic, and CE Checkers has a high level of hilarious tomfoolery (like that one time you yeeted an antag into the PTL), so I don't think I can choose.
please never change your style i literally just sleep to these vids since they are the background noise of someone talking. can't find anything else like it, that and I genuinely just enjoy the vids when I do watch
Insane Corporate Liaison Checkers is my favorite for laughs. Super serious about his breakfast foods while everyone else is dying horribly. But QM Checkers is a classic and I love it all the same. Chief Engineer Checkers is insane and glorious!
thats a tough one , corporate liason is prolly one of the funniest since he just gets into more interesting charades between the marine officers to the survivors
I like a Checkers hard at work, with high shenans included. So my favourites are, QM checks - classic and hard working CE checks - educational and hard working Chem checks - educational and mischievous!
I met s Grey old man in a wheelchair next to a camp fire in space station 14 yesterday. That man's name was Benson Abernathy, and I paid my respects! Very cool!
I love when you open at 41:34 . There's the first signs someone crossed the beam. and at 42 proper, the blood stain. oh, how i laughed. You can put up a wet floor sign, and people will still trip.
I really enjoyed both QM and CL, mostly because both resulted in crazy interactions with people. Also, my D&D brain reads CL as ‘chaotic Lawful’, which I think is a perfect summery of how you played that. CE also gets up to some truly fantastic madness.
Way late to this but personally I like all the Checkers shenanigans no matter what the role. It is good seeing a person play so many different roles and have fun in all of them.
@@theblackpantslegionI was genuinly impressed how well it worked. Not to say that I doubted you. I figured it would drop the power output but was happy to see that sucker take off.
CL Checkers are some of your best videos, in my opinion, but that role is depend on how others interact with you. Sometimes you just get weirdo MPs who don't want to do anything but play their police role.
As someone who has never watched a playthrough of this game, only heard about it in passing mention and only have a basic idea of how everything works, I have no idea what is going on or what you are doing. But I am thoroughly entertained.
@@theblackpantslegion I noticed. I have so far been entertained for like 8 hours. Initial found your channel because I play MWO and got suggested your BattleTech lore videos. Here's to wishing you get more subs because this shit is hilarious.
I mean no matter how iconic Quartermaster Checkers is, *my* personal favorite is and always will always be the legend of Checkers the traitor chef. He who farted up a nuke, sending the station medbay into oblivion. Classic!
QM checkers and CE checkers are the ultimate forms of the extra-dimensional man. Throwback to the occasional chemistry checkers, famous for his SPEED. Chemistry on TG is massively changed though, the chemists now have a massive room to make some kind of chemical factory a la factorio. Meth factory? Maybe.
Well. This was quite a personally interesting episode for me. The guy you were gushing about (Bast) is actually one of my IRL friends. I've lived under the same roof as him at one point, even. Ever since I introduced him to SS13 he's expressed interest in helping me get the codebase I'd been dicking around with on and off since 2012 or so to a stable state that I'm happy with hosting constantly. Presently, he, myself, and another guy are considered the current developers of that branch. I bring this up because I noticed that the aforementioned third guy *just so happened* to be playing in the round this very episode was filmed in. So yeah. A few fun facts for ya. And thank you for making such amazing content and helping him get through all that shit.
28:50 This is one of the things i like in you Tex. In between fart jokes you drop those lines that makes you think what life should be about, without tryharding to be internet "philosopher". Also sry 4 bad engrish, it's not my first language. Also I'm drunk a bit. Lemon vodka with energy drink is the best
Darth Plagueis the Burned was a dark lord of Goongineering so powerful and so wise that he could use the trace gases emitted from farts to create power
Mining Checkers, CE Checkers, QM Checkers are all great, but I really really enjoy Chemist Checkers- you always attract SO MUCH BAD STUFF when you chemist! It makes for great viewing. Alien Checkers is also good.
I think the subject, er, the *patient* needs to be unconscious if you’re ghetto operating on a normal table. For future limb-removing-shenanigans reference.
My fave was corporate liaison checkers when people played along, or even rped against. However, there's a couple of episodes where CL Checkers struggled to really get people to actually play along with his shenanigans, so imo, he has the highest highs and the lowest lows.
Greetings Texx, I'm a senior admin and contributor for Unitystation and I would like to say thank you for your endorsement, we try to keep it running as much like a "stabbed rat" as possible. While we are still very much in early alpha, we are making progress very often and have a committed and passionate staff. Also, you're a legend. We would love to have you stop by one day and give it a shot. Thank you for your videos in general, keep remaining amazing. I've personally been a fan for a long time.
Thanks buddy. I'm also in your discord but I hardly ever say much. I want to run unity when I can show people what it can do. Not just "LOL crash shuttle". I want to show people some real shit, some amazing, classic SS13 shenanigan shit. And I think that might bring the right sort of people to your project, folks who want to play something more than shuttle-crash boogaloo. Not saying that's bad, mind. Your atmospherics in that regard are phenomenal, and the crashes have proven hilarious. But I want people to see it as more than a shuttle crash PVP simulator. I want to show the people the glory of your work
We cant wait to have ya Tex. You really are an artisan of your craft. We'll do it proud, we love this project. It will be a grand spectacle like no one has seen before when it's finished.
The hellburn corporate quatermaster would be best. Because that person gets the RP. Builds a hellburn engine and causes a lot of fun because they want to make money no matter the cost.
Corporate liaison Checkers is legend supreme, especially when he became the xeno-messiah. Although that one time with Checkers the Chemist and poisonous gasses and puke death, I nearly died laughing.
Well I don't have cancer as of yet long story but I will say this the current week job I have is very Demeaning there have been many Friday morning when I have come home Burnt out beaten and exhausted and your space station 13 vids were the only thing that could make me feel better hell I remember a few of those Thursday night thinking just make it through the night and you can have something to eat and watch one tex,s Space station 13 vids .my favorite Checker,s is Checkers the traitor .
Two men, alone in a room on the lonely edge of a rapidly depopulating space station, farting for all they are worth in a desperate attempt to power an engine already running far beyond what would ever be necessary. Fucking glorious.
Having watched this video I can't believe in my brief testing the phrase "Less is more" never occured to me. I even tried an 80% oxy burn to bring down the specific heat of the max pressure mix but only broke 6k briefly
I'm a fan of QM Checkers, But CE Checkers is hilarious as well. Corporate Liason is very dependent on adminfuckery, so really depends on who is on CM. Love your games of SS13, my games kind of...don't do well. Either dying in 5 seconds, or roaming around doing nuthing at all, even as QM.
Is it weird that this is something I simply assumed GoonStation had from the start?' Because this is the sort of thing you'd assume that they'd have from the start. Have I actually gone entire years thinking that there were flatulence-powered engines? I... don't know what to believe anymore.
You will always be the ideal image of a quartermaster. I don't know if you Actually came up with "Cargonia", but as far as my newbie brain goes (only played SS13 for about ..10 months) you did. Its your fault I even got started! WHY?! I WAS HAVING A GOOD DAY BEFORE THIS ADDICTION!!1 >: -|
Huh...engine running on farts...that's new. Anyway, another enlightening story from Checkers. Also he will stay amusing even if he turns into a 1886 Lebel....or a bun. (But not with cinnamon, cause...you now...)
My personal favorite Checkers are probably CE, then Miner, then QM, then whatever other shenanigans you manage to cook up. And I need to know if it's possible to run an engine solely and completely on farts now.

What video was hybrid checkers?
QM Checkers is a classic due to the sheer amount of shenanigans, but I'd say my favorite just because of how devious and truly powerful they could be... Checkers the Chemist.
My first reaction to the video title was " I don't think he can, but I'm worried he might."
I really would like to see goon miner Checkers, I think you'd like this job. Easy to understand but if you dig deep, it's insanely deep. Also, very comfy.

That’s funny
I would attribute your voice's healing powers with its depth and rumble, like how cats purr to heal
I think it's just the preservation capacity of the whisky personally. Still works.
Corporate liason checkers was always god damn great.
"WE NEED MORE FARTS FOR THE ENGINES!" My face hurts from laughing so hard
I like every kind of Checkers.
Maybe the QM Checkers is most iconic, and CE Checkers has a high level of hilarious tomfoolery (like that one time you yeeted an antag into the PTL), so I don't think I can choose.
I'm trying to look for that specific video again. I can't remember what it was called.
Hellburn, Antgas, and Yeeting a traitor. Plus or minus capitalization.
@@vali6717 OH god. How did I forget about the ant gas...
there is actually a little adventure thing that requires you to fill a canister with farts
please never change your style i literally just sleep to these vids since they are the background noise of someone talking. can't find anything else like it, that and I genuinely just enjoy the vids when I do watch
Thanks bud. I dont intend to ever change.
Insane Corporate Liaison Checkers is my favorite for laughs. Super serious about his breakfast foods while everyone else is dying horribly.
But QM Checkers is a classic and I love it all the same. Chief Engineer Checkers is insane and glorious!
Welp, there goes that wacky Checkers guy solving the energy crisis again... What's next, a Singularibee?
Malleus Invictus YOU FOOL! Singularbee does not exist according to the NDAs we were forced to sign.
@@retrophone5249 What NDAs? I know of no such document and state is clear terms my disbelief in any such "singularabee".
9:54 direct link to the video he's talking about: th-cam.com/video/Vhd3kGtS2tg/w-d-xo.html
27:00 ...so he said, "...you got the touch, YOU HAVE THE POWUHH!!!..."
Honestly surprised you didn't hit us with the " You're just a journeyman on a journey."
eh, maybe next time
Remember that episode where the bio engineer gave you super farts? That plus a couple assistants, boom fart farm. Engery crisis solved.
Studies have shown, discount dan's burritos provide a viable alternative to fossil fuels.
thats a tough one , corporate liason is prolly one of the funniest since he just gets into more interesting charades between the marine officers to the survivors
I like a Checkers hard at work, with high shenans included.
So my favourites are,
QM checks - classic and hard working
CE checks - educational and hard working
Chem checks - educational and mischievous!
2:50 "pumps are on that's how pumps work" lmfao
yorpyorpyorp’s changeling captain video was my first exposure to SS13. It was a religious experience I tell ya.
I met s Grey old man in a wheelchair next to a camp fire in space station 14 yesterday. That man's name was Benson Abernathy, and I paid my respects! Very cool!
I can't say I have a favorite Checkers incarnation. The variety of incarnations he has is what makes him compelling to me.
I love when you open at 41:34 . There's the first signs someone crossed the beam. and at 42 proper, the blood stain. oh, how i laughed.
You can put up a wet floor sign, and people will still trip.
I really enjoyed both QM and CL, mostly because both resulted in crazy interactions with people. Also, my D&D brain reads CL as ‘chaotic Lawful’, which I think is a perfect summery of how you played that.

Oh Damn Ode to Joy with Tex running the world on Fartsss.......
Way late to this but personally I like all the Checkers shenanigans no matter what the role. It is good seeing a person play so many different roles and have fun in all of them.
Your scientists were so preoccupied with that you could that your didnt think if you should.
Farts, ah, find a way.
Tex: *Posts video chukling softly to himself*
Me in Montana: *Sees video title* God speed. *Clicks the video*
It worked, I'll have you know
@@theblackpantslegionI was genuinly impressed how well it worked. Not to say that I doubted you. I figured it would drop the power output but was happy to see that sucker take off.

I hope we see more CL Checkers. We need more breakfest stories and horrible products.
Engine of Woes is nothing in comparison to THIS
I don't really have a favorite checkers. He's cool all around.
As someone who has never watched a playthrough of this game, only heard about it in passing mention and only have a basic idea of how everything works, I have no idea what is going on or what you are doing.
But I am thoroughly entertained.
Thank you sir. I got a whole playlist of these. Over 8 years of it.
@@theblackpantslegion I noticed. I have so far been entertained for like 8 hours. Initial found your channel because I play MWO and got suggested your BattleTech lore videos.
Here's to wishing you get more subs because this shit is hilarious.
I love them all but I honestly have to say QM Checkers for the win!!! All hail Cargonia!!!!
I mean no matter how iconic Quartermaster Checkers is, *my* personal favorite is and always will always be the legend of Checkers the traitor chef. He who farted up a nuke, sending the station medbay into oblivion. Classic!
I prefer the saga of Kramer Murray and his MIGHTY WARRIORS. He will always be NOTED for all time.
Alternate title: In space, no-one can hear you fart.
QM checkers is what brought me to the channel. The other checkers are what made me stay!
Well, sometimes you gotta branch out
@@theblackpantslegion I love it, please don’t change a thing!

Maybe. But I haven't played /tg/ in forever.
So far I'll have to corporate liaison checkers.
Have to say that is. Hate using a phone to comment.
Thank you Tex for your furthering of Science! We are all smarter in our brain meats due to this!

You've gotten me through some pretty rough times with your videos without even knowing it, thank you Tex.
Welcome Brother Alex.
Welcome, buddy
God. I was the guy who took off his mask you were referring too. That fart chamber was great. Too bad a traitor came and blew us up.

CL Checkers is my favorite Checkers. the corporate fall guy seems to never get a break
yeah....yeah
I think the subject, er, the *patient* needs to be unconscious if you’re ghetto operating on a normal table. For future limb-removing-shenanigans reference.
Freude schöner Götterfunke, Tochter aus Elysium... I just love it :-D
Checkers is having a 4th of July sleepover with his bff
This just means more fart based engine work. We demand a full fart hell burn! Also Steiner. Steiner sir
On it
My fave was corporate liaison checkers when people played along, or even rped against. However, there's a couple of episodes where CL Checkers struggled to really get people to actually play along with his shenanigans, so imo, he has the highest highs and the lowest lows.
It's sadly too true. Sometimes people just ignore the CL
The Jeff Bezos impression got me good. A+
We love you Mr. Nick
Had a CE teach me a good bit about the job, was basically this is how it works and learning why it does it is hard.
Indeed. But its an amazing rabbit hole to go down. To do a good job on goongioneering is an achievement

Shoutout to the greatest QM to do it
I played Unitystation right now. i think its the same SS 13 feeling but much more smoother. Really nice.
It's VERY promising
Hail, hail Cargonia, land of stolen things! Obey your Quartermaster, unless he is a ling!

You forgot Randolph P. Checkers, Barman and Clown Friend

There's ERAs of checkers, which I find to be interesting.
@@theblackpantslegion Indeed, and your exploits are legend. You are heard throughout NT space as somewhat of a hero.
A bad hero. I've heard the stories as well. They're half true
How about Roboticist Checkers,that builds Battlemechs for the station? Preferably ones with lots of auto-cannons?
Is it weird that this is something I simply assumed GoonStation had from the start?'
Because this is the sort of thing you'd assume that they'd have from the start.
Have I actually gone entire years thinking that there were flatulence-powered engines?
I... don't know what to believe anymore.
Nobody fucks with Chief Engineer Randolph P. Checkers. I'll always cherish the time I watched you throw a wizard into the PTL.
Gotta fix wizards before they fix you, bud
Sadly goon changed engineering last time I played so that broken pipes leak all pressure quickly.
Favorite RPC is CM merc RPC. Runners up QM or CM SSGT.
This is madness....
Oh Boy Oh Boy *fetches popcorn* cant wait for the Fartdriven Engine :D *eats snacks*
I always liked the QM rounds. Maybe you could just try an assistant round or something to mix it up.
Z0rg bless you, Tex.
You will always be the ideal image of a quartermaster. I don't know if you Actually came up with "Cargonia", but as far as my newbie brain goes (only played SS13 for about ..10 months) you did. Its your fault I even got started! WHY?! I WAS HAVING A GOOD DAY BEFORE THIS ADDICTION!!1 >: -|
Cargonia has been a long meme. I've merely worked there for 12 years
Huh...engine running on farts...that's new. Anyway, another enlightening story from Checkers.

You should always be learning and striving for more, but you can also take pride in how fare you've come. Still working on that self-respect though.
I'd rather not take pride. It leads to ego. And that leads to danger

1. QM checkers
2. It appears the amount of money you make from the ptl is static and doesn't change depending on how much you put in
My personal favorite Checkers are probably CE, then Miner, then QM, then whatever other shenanigans you manage to cook up. And I need to know if it's possible to run an engine solely and completely on farts now.
