Wow. So the winning streak finally ended for Ken Jennings. He was on Jeopardy for a while. Well, hope he enjoys his winnings, he earned it.

My thing though is this: did he really miss that question...or did the producer peeps behind Jeopardy finally say "step down/u need to step down, and you'll get a bonus, etc." ????

I mean, For someone that "trivia minded", and he misses on a H & R block question??? and not somthing like "what was the name of Winston Churchills half sisters daughters second husband." :lol:

Know what I mean?

Had first sim monday nite on the RES Firehawk, played the CMO.

At first, im thinking Oh boy...first sim...and its Romulan, not the "normal" Starfleet I was hoping for. LOL

It was fun, just like reading a novel, only better cause u are part of the action. :lol:

Yep, BluRox has already posted some great info in another topic of mine, but Im sure when I start getting character info together more info will come up.

The Pic is from a game called "Bloody Roar 3"

Im working on a Caitian character that resembles a leopard/ocelot/ snow leopard..type of cat. The pic is sorta close to what I have in mind.

Plus the fact I just like the pic! :o

Nice Signature!

:o :D :(

Dont forget.......Blu hosts the Adademy tomorrow at 10p..and you can see the Republic afterwards..but you'll have to watch quietly from the balcony.. :o

Yep, planning on the 10 academy tonite.

I can do the quiet thing, not a problem. Observing advc sims would be great to see how it all works.

Thnks everyonel for the info and answers.

Cool. Tnks

The Academy scheduled for Monday (Nov. 29) is 10 pm ET, that would be Eastern Time rite?

And I can access the chatrooms thru the icon toward the upper rite of my screen that says...Chat Rooms? And I want the "Holodeck" room?

Just so I dont end up somwhere else at wrong time :o

Yep. I plan on having fun. Thats what RPG's are for.

The ET on the schedule means Eastern Standard Time rite?

One thing, though...If you choose one of my posts...the republic..I recommend not referring to caitians as kitties....(the CO is Caitian..and prone to fits of of clawdom when provoked) the admiral might make you her own personal scratching post :D

 

Thanks for all info.

I hafta admit Im liking the looks of Republic, especially after viewing the intro to the ship:

These missions involve science exploration and diplomacy in the Gamma Quadrant, and patrol and security of the demilitarized zone between the Breen, Cardassian and Federation space

Science x ploration, patrol, and diplomacy: that pretty much says everything that I look for in a Trek adventure. And I like the fact they have what I assume is a hyperactive AI? LOL!

Getting ahead of myself though. Gotta get thru Academy first. :o

He's actually faster than lightning.......or he used to claim to be :D

 

Anywho...you are absolutely correct in believing this to be the best place to start...

 

Take your time..meet the GMs...research the various ships....and be sure to have fun while contributing...

 

See you around...

Ive been haunting the boards for the past hour or so, checking out the various ships. Wow. Choices. :o

At first glance, Ive narrowed it down to the following: USS Hood, USS Republic, and USS Manticore.

And I know for fact I will play a Caitian. Gotta love the kitties.

Ive also checked out the rules, Academy Sim tips, Academy schedules. So, hope to be in a academy sim soon.

Hi All :o Cadet Kansas Jones here------------> okay to put Cadet in Name? or should I wait for approval?

I used to play pen and paper RPG's (D & D, Vampire) back in the mid 90's, but as a Trek fan, I want to try a Trek On Line RPG. This seems like the best place to start.

Noob Alert! LOL

hmm, peeps. not bad. play your cards right jones and you might be the next potato :D

"U say potato and I say potatoe.....U say tomato..."

**snaps out of it** :o

sorry bout that. Certain words cause me to have flashbacks to that night in the Andorian Cantina. Our singing caused a brawl. :(

Holy Cow. I mean Cats.

Thanks very much peeps.

Is it possible to play as a werecat or cat person crewmember? :P

I know Star trek has really never done the were cat or cat person thing, but I was wondering if it would be possible here. thanks.

Just FYI

In 1950 Brando starred in "The Men", a WW2 film about crippled soldiers.

A young actor made a very quick appearance as one of the doctors at the hospital......the young actor was DeForest "Bones" Kelley. :D

LOL

Sounds like a TOS situation to me!!!

Personally TOS is my favorite...but all the descriptions of the various sections\ships make for some interesting ideas.................

:D

Thanks.

:D Noob alert!! LOL

Just checking out your forums and was wondering:

1.) As an online TREK RPG, is it all chat typing? With established times to meet?
