Really liked your post on 8/16 update. I had the same idea but you said it better than I would have. The more I think about, the more I think you are right. I doubt Omni will read 6th and 7th page comments. Any idea how to get the devs attention about it?
Well, I idle in the IRC channel 24x7. I could try to get their attention, but I feel kind of weird doing that. But the proposed system just seems so overly complex, I'm strongly considering it.
I'm keeping a thread in the Fan Art forum with updates on the characters: http://community.playstarbound.com/index.php?threads/futurama.27230/#post-1068076
