Mr Kaspian, after killing off his Captain, HOPS, and an Engineer, was promoted out of the Tuesday Academy

Welcome back, Sage

Welcome STSF's newest (old timer) Ensign, and first of the New Year, Jylliene. Graduated on 20120207, after dealing with WinME on the Avenger's main computers, and the Sea Tiger's Revenge.

Bad writing will destroy anything, be it a novel, movie, or TV franchise. That's probably why JMS was such a JWN when it came to Babylon 5.

"Dude, when's that catering wagon come by again?"

Welcome STSF's newest Ensign, and first of the New Year, Meddycakes. Graduated on 20120103, after not getting blown up.

A'ight. Here it is.

 

Its broken, Mr Silver

 

Jeckle: I say, old boy, there's something frightfully wrong with that bird's beak, wouldn't you say?

Heckle: Not as wrong as we bein' mistook for Magpies, pal.

And Mr Silver takes this round

I can't wait to see the number of Heckle & Jeckle comments ::smirks behind her mug of green tea::

This daytime fantasy is brought to you by the molecule Caffeine and the act of Sleep Deprivation.

Welcome STSF's newest Ensign- PlymouthAvenger, who graduated from the T'mir and Jami show on Tuesday, 30 August 2011

Actually, the weather bureau downgraded it to the more friendly-sounding "tropical storm".

 

Does this mean we'll get a break from Jersey Shore?

It made landfall as a Cat 1, VR. Once it was north of Sandy Hook, it became a "tropical storm"

Welcome STSF's newest Ensign- Kerris Kea, graduated the Tuesday Academy with T'Mir and Jami Farrington

So...is there a winner yet?

Happy FC Day!

 

...what if FC is with giant Bugs? Now there's a pleasant thought. Bzzz Bzzz. =P

Especially if their from Blattaria Blattidae.

::hides her smirk behind her mug of tea::

Picard...channeling Bismark. Or Snidely Whiplash. Riker doesn't know, but he's just jealous that he couldn't grow a mustache like Picard's.

Also unless you've exercised it absentee stylee. Because, then it is now illegal for you to exercise it today because you've already exercised it, you must wait until next time. Still, good job. . . :(

Unless you happen to live in Hudson County, NJ. Remember, vote early, vote often!

Happy birthday Kresh

Huff Wars: Raiders of the Lost Mr Coffee

Just how much wood could a woodchuck chuck, if a woodchuck could Chuck Norris.

::ponders::

As am I. Just remember, Mr Butterworth, cadet logs are not mandatory. They would be considered extra-curricular activities, and do not count towards graduation.

I do NOT approve.

Welcome back. You'll see some familiar faces, some new faces.

On a more mechanical note, I have noticed a large number of Vulcan candidates. This is understandable as Vulcans are portrayed with several physical and mental features superior to standard humanoids. If this has not created an excess of Vulcan players I would request to play a Vulcan/Romulan Hybrid.

First off... Welcome, relax and enjoy the experience.

Secondly, unless noted by the GMs in the mission brief, save all character development (including department choices) for after graduation, but don't write yourself into a corner.

Finally, I must ask what is cannon.

What is canon here? Broadly speaking, most ships are in that Post-TNG/DS9/VOY stage, but the individual Advanced Sim host teams generally define canon for that sim. Talon, our Romulan Sim, leans heavily Diane Duane Romulan-series novels for background and ignore the events of ST:Nemesis (and possibly STXI on the destruction of Romulus). QoB is a Future Era sim hybrid, based partially on a Federation that has gone the way of the Alliance (from Firefly/Serenity). Agincourt is another Future-era sim, on a Prometheus cruiser. Hood and Challenger are based in the Prime TOS universe, with Hood based firmly in the 60s colorful velour-clad TV Series, and Challenger (which was originally based in ENT) grounded firmly in post-STVI.

Comanche Creek, is our only New TOS-era sim. And, as to what the XO and Captain Calestorm have blended both New and Prime Universes, given the dearth of reference materials for the era. What's consider canon for Creek: Vulcan got fragged; there are only 10 thousand or so of the Species; the Fleet got fragged, and there's a more "Wagon Train in the Stars" feel on the borders of the Federation.

As for a Vulcan/Romulan hybrid? That may depend on what sim you graduate to, as well as that GM teams approval. And yes, I know Saavik was one such hybrid, but she could have been considered a special case.

Just remember: The key to surviving here, is to have fun, don't take it seriously, and enjoy yourself

Thank you ma'am. I appreciate your help for the clueless newbie. :P

The GMs are like Radio Shack. You have questions, we've got answers.
