  4. Kroells Family archive: entry 178 My Great Grandfather started this archive back in 2260. I never really had a reason to put an entry in… my dad said that this archive wasn’t no log…it was one of the few places that a person can write down what he really thinks. Most of the things in here are comments and/or criticism of fellow crew members’ commanding officers decisions and the other more personal things that most people wouldn’t put in their logs. These last few days I have begun to question my role on this ship more and more. I feel like they don’t let me do my role as a science officer. The incident on the last away mission I was on for instance. I had been so close to making first contact with that creature. But it just doesn’t work that way…something’s always holding me back…Commander Ridire…I just cant understand him…there’s just something about him that I cant place my finger on…its like he has no sense of adventure. My grandfather taught me that there were two kinds of explorers. The humans were the kind of people who jumped into the unknown with both feet willing to take the risk in the name of science. Great men like Archer, Kirk, and Picard. And then there are the Vulcans. Always holding back, conducting scan after scan to see if the area is interesting enough to explore, and wasting time with the details. The only person who I believe fits that description is Ridire. I look at my uniform, my pips, and my communicator and I’m disgusted. We’ve become the Vulcans that my grandfather talked about. I look at my communicator and see my reflection. They say that it represents the soul of Starfleet. But I see the self pity for making the choices that I’ve made. I’ve come to the realization that there is no Starfleet any more. Only yes men and the people that they hold back. I look into the reflection of my self and I can see it happening…I remember the times I didn’t care about the rules I did what I wanted to advance my knowledge. I stare into that once youthful reflection and I say…is this really worth it? End archive entry 178
  5. Travis sat on the shuttle with his eyes closed trying to comprehend what just happened. He had been so close to making first contact with that alien and Cmdr. Ridire had ordered him back to the shuttle. In Travis’s opinion he was just willing to take the first window of opportunity to get out of here. No scientific interest at all. In my opinion the survey wasn’t even complete. No tests had been made to determine the usability of the station…hell for all we know this thing could fall apart any second! In his opinion Travis’s first away mission was the kind to keep him locked up on the ship for the rest of his career. But the life form…that was the one thing that will stick with him… what if they don’t get an opportunity to go back down… what if it isn’t native to this planet? For all he knew if nobody comes back for another 25 years he may just be killing that creature if it has no way to survive… Travis just relised how warm it was in the shuttle. At first he figured that Vanroy had turned the heaters on to mess with him until he felt like he was really burning up… he thought about how this was just like his days at the academy… he had been working on an important experiment he was so close to finishing it but that pompous ass of a professor had decided that after all the research he did all the materials he collected that just at the end he’d tell him to stop. It took all his strength not to drop him right there. At first he pretended that he couldn’t hear him and that worked for about a second the professor ran up to him grabbed him by the collar and threatened him with expulsion if he didn’t stop. The next day Travis dropped that class. He thought to himself “Why to they open the door for me, tell me to go through it and then at the last moment slam it in my face?” This is exactly what was happening now…it was so hot he couldn’t think strait… he thought he remembered Cmdr. Ridire turning back to him but it was all a blur now….that creature was the only thing that mattered now…he needed to contact it… it might very well be the most important thing that will happen to him…but not now to hot to sleepy….no matter what he has to make contact with it… in the end it will all be worth it….Darkness approached him… he told all he needed to and let himself slip into unconsciousness.
  6. Is the lounge even an offical sim thingy any more? I mean nobody shows up and right now im serving drinks to someone named gb_3of12!
  7. Assistant science officers log star date 031.16 Begin Recording… It had been several hours since our away mission had gone wary stranding us one the surface of this planet. Our first few hours we were trapped within the shuttle due to the storm raging on the surface of this planet. Several hours latter the storm had cleared out but leaving the atmosphere above us unstable preventing a take off. We decided to return to the Romulan base to investigate further. I had become rather excited with the idea of finding the source of that biocontamination and had gone ahead and I have lost contact with the away team. I had decided that they were not far behind so I continued. I am currently at what I guess I could call a fork in the road. There are three separate tunnels and only one of me so I can not continue any farther. I currently am waiting at the entrance of the middle tunnel waiting for vanroy shamor and ridire to catch up. …End Recording
  8. Personal log star date 0301.9 Begin Recording… I found a piece of paper lying around on the floor so I decided to jot down a few things I’ve learned while on this mission… Never play strip poker with a crew member who appears to be going through pon far because it WILL leave very bad memories. Bring with enough food or else cannibalism will be brought up and trust me if you see the old holofilm silence of the lambs then you know what I’m talking about. Bring something more then a deck of cards to entertain your self. And most importantly… REMEMBER TO BRING PILLOWS NEXT TIME!!!! …End Recording
  9. Cool.....two pages...I now deem this an important thread. ;)
  10. NOOOO!!!! why doesnt it ever work for me!!!! :cry:
  11. Spoiler (Highlight to Read): Haha i've had too much time to my self look at what im learning to do!!!! Can I just keep messing around like this or am i gonna get in trouble???] ohh pretty.... ;)
  12. I've just realised that this thread has veard off course from being a academy discusion to making fun of a9. I change of course i can live with..... ;)
  13. And being the reason god stoped working/gave up on the sixth day! ;)
  14. well its gotten realy crappy for me...it never realy load the window stays white and after awhile it says this page can not be displayed if fred is right well fine but if its somthing with my comp then this could be a serious problem for me. ;)
  15. ::Just sighs and walks away, muttering:: His time will come... oui someones made fun of a9's old age...not to be a brown noser but wisdom comes with old age...so what im realy asking is. A9 can I be there when you burn him to a pulp? :nod:
  16. I realy hope you guys got the emails because for some reason ive lost the file for this last log....Sorry.
  17. That was Remen that he was having trouble reading not romulan....and with all those mistakes you pointed out about the movie im supirsed that you made such a mistake your self. :)
  18. I must say if we are to have a new ship soon I would want it to be something that could bebelivible...You just can run around with a promethius class ship it is still clasified to my knowledge. Sure the manticore is belivible due to the fact that starfleet has all kinds of stuff like that going on but to think that there is some promethius class ship runing around after just being bulit is unbelivible...We just make a Soverign or Intrepid class I think their better anyways. :)
  19. argh i need a class in ib codes too. :)
  20. [glow=][/glow] dumbass you realy are a dumb ass that was a station not a ship....Now im gona think who fred as vader when he's on the ageis. :)
  21. how does it look?
  22. I have the same problem geting in it more off a hit or miss for me if it doesnt load i quit and try again! some times it makes my head hurt though... ??? (bad atempt to use those blue guys)
  23. If I have any imput here I would love to see a soverign class be the next ship
  24. I have to stick with the times man
  25. Well I for one happen to like Vanroys idea about the "advanced academy" sims if not to get promotions then to have things go faster. I hate to say this but when I am in a sim it some times takes five minutes to say do a scan or raise shields. This is not a bad thing do to the fact that there is a lot of chat trafic and the new cadets can get confused easily (god knows i did) but if there were a sim with just us graduates it could move a lot faster and have more plot. One of the things I realy dislike about the academies is that we are always left with a clifhanger that wont be resolved.
