Travis Kroells

How is it that Garnoopy and Vanroy are beating me?

Err...alright..I was just messin with you...but at last it looks like I get some respect around here!

Hey! Im the orignal young member of stsf! one of two people the age of 15 to all ready hold the rank of LtJg! Travis Kroells's my name and controversy is my game! And for the last time nemisis! GET OFF OF THE SEX SYMBOL THING! ITS NOT APROPRIATE! (By posting in as many threads as posible Im shamelessly promoting my new fan fiction Solid Tactics. Email me to get on the mailing list!)

Strength through peace...I have trouble believing that we'll get stronger by being buddies with every one...::inserts 2 cents::

Don't you contridict me!

Do you honestly think when a freighter drops out of warp the captains going to jump up and yell, "Oh no! A freighter! It must be those blasted pandarians! Inform starfleet command! Overload the warp core and ram them! We'll sacfice our selfs!" Seriously people, lets try to be a bit realistic.

Yea, I created this thread to teach people that knowing your planets might make you rich one day...Not to have nemisis runing around correcting slurs, and thinking he's a sex symbol.

Great, an academy sex symbol...God I miss the old days

Why havent you been thrown out of an air lock yet? ::Turns the crank""

Wow Anika nice avatar, reminds me about how much soverigns kick ass...And you decomissioned it Fred!!!

What'a mean the Archer? Is Garnoopy jumping boats too?

Right, right I forgot, sir. Your the first officer and Im the second officer...still It'll be fun, we'll blow something up right vanroy?

First of all, you just did that to shine my most horible poll in the light again....And secondly If you got second officer of the Joathan Archer...I could easily get my own ship!

The reason the three amigos exist is because of our uniquie personalities. Dumbass a.k.a Vanroy is the insane one of the group, he makes rude gestures, defys the meaning of trek, kills crew members, atempts to eat crew members, is an all around smart ass, and manages to do it all in one sim time. If Vanroy is insane, then Travis would have to be sanein. He does the exact oposite of Vanroy to stand out, no matter what the cost. He'd lower shields to the borg, kiss a klingon, stop being so damn controversial, and go insane and kill his crew, just to be remembered in history. And if theres one person that can keep them tethered on a leash...it's Garnoopy. The master of sensible plans, trusted academy graduate of the GM's, this guy stops idiotic plans before their even thought up. Wow, my own little summary to the three amigos. All just made up so I'd have a reason not to vote. Because Vanroy would always leave them up, I'd never raise them...If the going gets tough we can just ram them!! And ram then ontill they serender in groaning pain!! :) ::D: :) :)

If I dont win then mogg should. Last week on the Aegis he walking into the security office and got the newly cleaned floor all dirty, needless to say Muon Quark chased him across half the station, even by the CT infront of Meve and Ayers, untill she finaly transported him to the security office with a mop bucket, bloody fun man! Funniest sim I've ever played

This is just one of those...how do you say it...Promotional bumps

Im not talking about the academy Fred that will never die. Im talking about the planet smashing, romulan base investgating, abuses Q powers Fred that has brought me down since day one! If i wasnt so important I might think you realy hated me, for now all i see it is as professional ribbing

Or jokes about how I "Suposedly" was the puppet master behind the group of kids who vandalized my school so bad that we missed a week for the clean up....No evidence...No facts...God I hope none of my teachers are trekkies and are reading this...

::punches Garnoopy:: Look what you've done!

::YELLS:: YOU REVIVED HIM!!! I COULD HAVE GONE UP A SPOT ON THE REAENT!

::Runs away screaming for a cure of some disease::

All right...Where to begin....ah! I know! ::grabs the microphone:: Ok...It has come to my atttention over the last few weeks that people are pming asking how to play with the ACTION statments. (for privacy i wont name names) Or the come to me complaining that they're getting yelled at for not following the plot. Well I'm here to save you. Well some of you. I'll first show you an example of an all to common thing i see in the academy...Then I'll teach you what I've learned to play by these mysterious and hard to understand actions. EXAMPLE 1: The USS Example is briskly flying through space heading to a peace conference on Rigil 13 ((too many of them)) when all of a suden the peacefull silence is broken by an AENG trying to get some spot light. CO> So commander, what do you think of these Pandarians we have been sent to deal with? XO> I hear that they are a brutish race that have mysteriously destroyed several starships, along with kipnaping and possible murdering several away teams. CO> I trust that the ship is capable of handleing the threat of these aliens? XO> Of course sir. A complete diagnostic was run before we left space dock, every thing should be running in perfect order... AENG> +CO+ Sir the warp core is about to breach! But if you'd like I can fix it. Alright lets stop right there. I know many people don't think this thing happens but it does, ask any GM or fellow crewmember who makes apperances in the academy. Now this is mostlikley the worst way to get on a GM. This is the worst way to ruin your chances at graduating for the night, if ever. The GM's know that your there and see what you do, even if it's as simple as scrubing plasma conduits. They dont want to see you jump to the ocasion when it doesnt fit the plot. Trust me when I that every cadet has his day, and eventually something will happen that will give you the chance to be a hero. So the bottom line is, the GM's notice when you play well, even if there's seemingly nothing to do. Save the away team if it stays in the plot, just dont try to do it from cargo bay 3. In this example the USS Example is under atack by those dasterdly Pandarians, a torpedo breaks through the shields and causes the contament field around the warp core to destabalize. These next two example show two possible things you could do. Both are considered right, by standerds of playing in the plot but we'll find out why the AENG from example 1 most likely wont be graduating tonight. CO> ACTION: a torpedo breaks through the shield and hits near M.E ((main engineering)) causing the contament field around the warp core to desabilze. AENG> ::Notices that the core is destablizing and puts a contanment field around it:: Wow. Real orignal, makes you wonder where the CENG was. Many cadets protest that since the CENG wasnt in engineering they didn't have to contact him. Well lets take a look at a better way to handle this. CO> ACTION: a torpedo breaks through the shield and hits near M.E ((main engineering)) causing the contament field around the warp core to desabilze. AENG>::looks at his terminal relising that the core is about to breach, quickly thinking of an idea he hits his commbadge:: +CENG+ Sir! That last torpedo caused the contament field around the core to destablize! CENG> +AENG+ Set up a contament field around the core, and do it fast. AENG> ::looks down at his panel finding a problem:: +CENG+ Sir! We dont have enough power, should I reroute power from the holodeck? CENG> +AENG+ Do it, take what power you need and get the field up before we're all killed. AENG> +CENG+ Aye sir. ::taps his panels rerouting power and finaly sets up the contanment field. Definetly better. He contacted his chief and informed him of the situation, he also found a way to affect the sim with out going out of the plot lines, by draining power from the holodecks. The GM's create actions like this to see how you handle when forced to think on your feet. The universal answer to all engineering problems isnt to put a force field around it. A core breach can't, and shouldn't be taken care of by simply puting a force field around it. The bottom line is, that when a GM finaly gives you a chance to do something important, don't waste your 15 minutes of fame by only spending 10 seconds puting a force field around it. Well thats all for now, I hope I helped some, and I seriously hope that you've learned not to hail the captain with a core breach every sim.

::borrows Vanroy's imune to ACTION stament title for a moment::

Dont think about it, it'll only make the black hole of insanity grow.

::walks out of the room with three dead pandarians laying on the floor:: Fred, you just dont learn...Im too popular to kill.
