A satirical save to explain why reactors on TPT aren't anything special.

  lol The best way to get downvotes is to poke fun at n00bsaves, because n00bs know everything.

  @Xenarchus89, That's dumb logic... You know for a fact that if you didn't say ANYTHING and then just left the "reactor" in the save, it wouldn't get FP for a second. The fact is, you've not really told me how I was wrong in saying that only good reactor saves get FP, and bad reactors don't. Besides, your save only got FP for less than seven minutes, bad saves end up on FP all the time, but get voted off really quickly, okay, don't be dumb.

  @Reeses You know what's funny? You said a crappy reactor wouldn't go to FP, but this one did.

  @LBPHacker, yea, I agree. TPT should have those mechanics, but since they don't it would be expected, then, that DTEC or Detector Wall mechanics would be used.

  Also, apple5265 was only saying that it's obvious that THAT'S how reactor's make power; any man and his dog knows that, okay -- it's common sense. But, he was made mention to the fact that the best type of reactors (the ones that typically get FP) are the ones that use unique or un-used game mechanics to help with or give functionality to the save. If someone made that shitty thing you just put in your text-only save, it would never get FP (principally speaking).

  I happily report that the save achieved its goal and gave me a few chuckles. So what sort of reactor would you consider interesting? I'm sure we'd have more realistic reactors if moving magnetic fields (which we don't have) could generate current (which we don't have) in conductors (which we have sort of).

  (1) There are many well-crafted reactors. This should be the only reason people put them on FP. (2) "They use reactions to make power" is nonsense; it's like saying "electronics use electrons to function", like, everyone knows that, it wouldn't be a reactor if it didn't use any type of physical or chemical reaction to generate electricity. (4) It only makes sense to not like a reactor save when it's poorly crafted or is completely unoriginal.
