Round 3:
Event: N/A
SkyGuy98: (Active Fermenter) Mutation: Vertical Gene Transfer (3) Description: E. cieloviri has not changed appreciably from past generations. The high demand of its flagella coupled with the energy leaching of its mitochondria are beginning to take a heavy toll on this species. Previous Mutations: Mitochondria {2} Flagella {4} Conservation Status: VU
Robotranicrex: (Active Glycovore) Mutation: Vacuole (5) Description: E. roborexi has developed a storage vacuole to contain its excess ATP, allowing for more efficient utilization of the molecule. Previous Mutations: Flagella {5} Mitochondria {5} Conservation Status: LC
Unknown: (Active Glycovore) Mutation: Cilia (4) Description: E. obscurus has developed cilia that allow it to maneuver better in the water and offer it a fair bit of additional speed. Relative to other species however, these cilia are uncompetitive and their energy demand may not be recovered if the primordial soup thins. Previous Mutations: Flagella {5} Mitochondria {5} Conversation Status: LC
Longisquama: (Passive Aerobic Respirator) Mutation: Vertical Gene Transfer (2) Description: E. longisquamae has not notably changed. Previous Mutations: Mitochondria {7} Failed Vertical Gene Transfer {1} Conservation Status: LC
Bigyihsuan: (Active Glycovore) Mutation: Cilia Aided Phagocytosis (4) Description: E. magnayihsuanae has developed a primitive manner of using its cilia to trap smaller prokaryotic prey for easier phagocytosis. (assuming I understood you correctly) Previous Mutations: Mitochondria {4} Cilia {6} Conservation Status: LC
Atrox: (Passive Aerobic Respirator) Mutation: Cilia (1) Description: E. atroxi has developed actin filaments that protrude beyond the plasma membrane. These inflexible rods tend to keep growing until they are sheared off, producing a great deal of drag. Previous Mutations: Mitochondria {1} Improved Mitochondria {7} Conservation Status: NT
For whatever reasons, the dice gods seem miffed about reproduction. Also, it seems that the nutrient rich primordial soup is thinning, although life seems well on the way to be prepared for this. And thank you for your patience, a great many inconveniences conspired to keep my free time down today.

Oh, well that's not good, I guess I'll have to take care of that mitochondria thing then. And no problem wayward

(just a question when can i evolve groups) i would like to evolve a chyloplast (the stuff ingame) chloroplast? And do you mean becoming one organism or your cells working as a team to do things?

RoboTrannic are you referring to a thermoplast or a chemoplast? And in order to develop communal living, you have to evolve binding proteins and communication signals. You can do both of those at any point, however they are fairly energy intensive, so I recommend building up a healthy life as a single cell first, and then moving toward communalism when the nutrients run dry, so to speak.

ok i get where your coming at
ok how about a 'mouth' (in the conttext of cells)

Now I want horizontal gene transfer

Yep, that's what I wanted. >Universal binding proteins, that are able to stick onto anything when activated.

So am I basically a microscopic sea urchin?
Wow. I can think of worse things to be but wow... I mean I guess urchins are pretty cool. Spiky balls...
Actually this gives me an idea... I'd like to evolve flagella.

Round 4:
Event: N/A
SkyGuy98: (Active Fermenter) Mutation: Better Mitochondria (5) Description: E. cieloviri's mitochondria have streamlined their electron transfer process and now operate at a more useful efficiency. Previous Mutations: Mitochondria {2} Flagella {4} Failed Vertical Gene Transfer {3} Conservation Status: VU
Robotranicrex: (Active Glycovore) Mutation: Phagocytosis (4) Description: E. roborexi is now able to detect when a "prey" cell is near its membrane and engulf it. This process however is a bit unwieldy and is often a failure. Previous Mutations: Flagella {5} Mitochondria {5} Vacuole {5} Conservation Status: LC
Unknown: (Active Glycovore) Mutation: Horizontal Gene Transfer (2) Description: E. obscurus like all others before it who dreamed of effective reproduction has had its dreams crushed mercilessly. Previous Mutations: Flagella {5} Mitochondria {5} Cilia {4} Conversation Status: LC
Longisquama: (Passive Aerobic Respirator) Mutation: Vertical Gene Transfer (4) Description: E. longisquamae has developed a way to exchange genes with mates in order to produce a more genetically diverse array of offspring. This innovation should open the door to more rapid evolution in the future. The first successful reproduction strategy also unlocks achievements. Previous Mutations: Mitochondria {7} Failed Vertical Gene Transfer {1} Failed Vertical Gene Transfer {2} Conservation Status: NT
Bigyihsuan: (Active Phagocytizer) Mutation: Adhesive Proteins (7) Description: E. magnayihsuanae has developed membrane proteins that, when a desirable binding surface is detected, have their conformations changed by protein kinases. This change enables them to form very strong van der waals bonds to most surfaces encountered. Because this is a super mutation, these count as colony binding proteins as well. Previous Mutations: Mitochondria {4} Cilia {6} Cilia Aided Phagocytosis {4} Conservation Status: LC
Atrox: (Passive Aerobic Respirator) Mutation: Flagella (4) Description: Mortens atroxi has developed basic flagella. They offer decent speed although their use of energy is highly inefficient. (assuming I see properly where you're going with this) This allows m. atroxi to "ram" into other cells and spill their contents, although this often leads to a fracture of spines and subsequent spillage of cytosolic content. Previous Mutations: Mitochondria {1} Improved Mitochondria {7} Cilia {1} Conservation Status: VU
Achievements: First to Reach Land: One additional vote that will have a +2 applied to it. First to Drive Another Species Extinct: A guaranteed super mutation.
So, yeah. I forgot to make you guys develop lysosomes to handle phagocytosis...and I'm not about to go back and edit everything. Have some endosomes on me! (you can develop phagocytosis without needing to form lysosomes as well). Also, once next turn's disaster happens, a few things will follow. Beings with the ability to move will seek greener pastures, so you might consider investing in low pressure tolerance (there will be a grace period for adjustment). The most and least fit player will get a +1 to their votes after each disaster.

This leads to spillage of my fluids? Damn. The dice gods are killing me here...

You're also politely murdering other cells, so if you had stronger filaments, or bracing proteins, you'd be set

Nooo My dreams have been crushed by the dice gods mercilessly. Well then dice gods I will want a horizontal gene transfer untill I get it!

Question since I have lyosomes I don't need phago at all right?

You need phagocytosis to eat smaller microbes, you just hve the innate ability to digest them.

So do we need to evolve lymsomes or can we go straight for phagocytosis? If so do phagocytosis, if not lymsomes
