About The Committee

Seven and a half million years ago, the supercomputer Deep Thought was commissioned by a race of hyper-intelligent, pan-dimensional beings to calculate the Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything. After a period of careful reflection, just about 7.5 million years, the machine provided a definitive, mathematically unimpeachable, and utterly useless result: 42. As Deep Thought itself pointed out, the Answer is functionally irrelevant if one does not actually know what the Question is. To rectify this, the greatest biological computer ever conceived was designed: a ten-million-year program known to its inhabitants as "Earth."

The committee convenes in the wake of a catastrophic bureaucratic oversight. Moments before the Earth could complete its final calculation, it was demolished by the Vogon Constructor Fleet to make way for a hyperspace bypass that quite literally nobody wanted. With the primary organic processor destroyed, the galaxy has been plunged into an ontological crisis. The universe is now a solution without a problem, and the resulting instability threatens to collapse the very fabric of reality or worse, the galactic stock market.

As members of this high-level Task Force, delegates must navigate a landscape of infinite improbability and profound incompetence. Your primary objective is to recover the lost "Question" by any means necessary. In a reality where logic is a suggestion and the President of the Galaxy is currently a fugitive on a stolen ship, delegates must balance cosmic discovery with the immediate threat of Vogon bureaucracy. Remember the golden rule of the Guide: the situation is dire, but there is no reason to lose your towel. Don’t Panic.
