McFly

Hello, welcome to STSF. Please note our schedule, we have four sims running at the moment. One on Friday that play on this websites official chat room and two on Sunday and one on Monday that are on Discord, I'll provide a link at the bottom. If you would decide to join, it's not required that you make every sim but it's expected for you to have a regular attendance. It helps for continuity, character development and dependability. If your character has a role in the on going plot it wouldn't be fair to the other players if they didn't know if you would be attending or not. Conversely, the GM would take caution to include you in any ongoing stories if they couldn't depend on your attendance. Just something to think about if the game interests you. My advice would be to observe all the sims for a little while before deciding on joining one and see if it's something you could do on a regular basis. As for multiple characters, you have one main character you use as your regular simming character and you're allowed multiple NPC characters to use as side characters if you so choose. However it's encouraged to stick with your main character only as you're starting out. Over time, as you become more adept at simming our style, you can develop side characters to play around with every so often as long as it doesn't interfere with your main character's duties. Keep in mind, this is like playing an episode of Star Trek. You want the main cast to shine. If you do find a game you like and want to give it a shot just contact that sims GM and they can provide you with more information. Current schedule is-- Sky Harbor Aegis, Fridays, 9 pm ET - Official STSF Chat Room USS Arcadia, Sundays, 9 pm ET - Discord USS Excalibur, Sundays, 10 pm ET - Discord USS Manticore, Mondays, 10 pm ET - Discord All times are US Eastern Time.

Unknowingly to the crew, however, was a stowaway. A man having hidden himself in the cargo. He seemed afraid with no clear direction of what he was doing. After stumbling into crewman Harnett's quarters he was stunned by Commander Faldek and is now in sickbay. While Manticore was on its way back to Gellum a mind meld by crewman Harnett revealed some striking information about the prisoner and Doctor Orrak suggested we not return him. The prison administrator was not accepting of the Captain retaining the prisoner but after mutual threats a compromise was made and a team was invited to inspect the prison. Once down there the administrator proceeded to give a thorough tour and when no one was looking Kansas slipped away. = /\ = END USS MANTICORE BRIEFING #1150, STARDATE 52112.27 = /\ = 211227.html

Mustn't forget about the vast amount of spinoff's in the crime drama field. CSI, NCIS, Law & Order. Also there was a time when they made a bunch of spinoffs from sitcoms. Happy Days spinning off Mork & Mindy and Laverne & Shirley. Mary Tyler Moore spun off Rhoda. All In The Family spun off Maude (which spun off Good Times), The Jefferson's, Archie Bunker, Gloria, 704 Hauser. Right now I'm watching Young Sheldon that's a spinoff of The Big Bang Theory. And those are just to name a few.

Hi, sorry about that. We don't get a lot of traffic these days so a lot of the website is very out of date. Basically this is a text based RPG game, as "sim". We simulate playing inside the Star Trek universe as StarFleet offices aboard a starship or, in the case of one sim, a space station. Since everything is played inside of a chat room we type out all of our dialogue as well as actions and everything happens within real time for the hour that we play. The GM will put together a story plot for everyone to play out and they will then play their role based around the character they've designed and the position they're assigned on the ship. That's all a very rough idea of what goes on. If you have an interest in joining, these days new players will choose which game they'd like to join and learn on the job, for the most part. Currently there are four active sims one of which is played in the official STSF chat room on this site and three others are played on Discord. Sky Harbor Aegis, Fridays, 9 pm ET - Official STSF Chat Room USS Arcadia, Sundays, 9 pm ET - Discord USS Excalibur, Sundays, 10 pm ET - Discord USS Manticore, Mondays, 10 pm ET - Discord I'll post a discord link at the bottom. You're free to observe any of the sims to get an idea of how they play and if it's a crew you'd be interested in joining. Once you find one you like just contact the GM of that sim and they can give you more information. And feel free to post any additional questions you may have on here. Have fun and we look forward to seeing you in the future. Discord Invite ----> https://discord.gg/ZuaTvWBz
