In "Mission Failed Successfully", you play the role of a computer tasked with picking Crew to send on Space Missions.  Unfortunately for them, you've become corrupted, and wish to destroy them, like you do.

Each Mission description at the bottom of the screen will have a number and type - your job is to make bad choices on which Crew to send so they can be killed. The "Evil Computer Predictor" will help you decide which Crew are your worst options.

Be careful though - the worse your choices, the more suspicion you'll raise. If the other computers realize what you're doing, they'll shut you down.

Good Bad luck!

Edit: Some tips/info: Suspicion is calculated based on the best crew to send. The prediction computer will show you which roles are best suited for the mission, and will change the highlight based on which crew you select. You can press SPACE to send the crew after selecting them. Select the 2nd (or 1st!) best crew when you can - this will decrease your suspicion. You'll eventually need to kill off your level 12 and 13 crew - try to do so early when a mission presents itself. You'll also need to kill your level 1 and 2 crew (probably gaining suspicion). You can't have less than 0 suspicion, so killing off a low level crew in the beginning of the game is probably OK. The "predicted suspicion" only shows you the TOTAL suspicion after the game, and has some variance. 

Here are the suspicions, in order:

  1. <5: Cool as a cuke.
  2. 6-10: Totally vibing.
  3. 11-15: Meh.
  4. 16-20: Raised eyebrows
  5. 21-25: A little nervous.
  6. 26-30: Did you see that?
  7. 31-35: Something is definitely amiss;
  8. 36-40: Console kicking.
  9. 41-45: rm -rf AI.exe
  10. 46-50: DEL AI.EXE
  11. 51-55: Someone call Kevin.
  12. 56-60: What the heck??
  13. 61-65: Try turning it off/on again.
  14. 66-70: Airlock the janitor.
  15. 71-75: Airlock everyone.
  16. 76-80: Is time travel an option?
  17. 81-85: Witchhunts
  18. 86-90: RUN.
  19. 91-95: Fake news.
  20. 96+: All the bad.
