  1. I have an idea! Let's vote on the next Featured sim and whoever gets the fewest votes has to leave the forum. We'll call it "Survivor STSF".
  2. Indeed! At least in STSF after you get punted, you aren't screaming at your modem "Stop with the busy signals and just sign on!!!"
  3. I went to conventions when I was younger. I even had a uniform! Now I would probably only go if I was interested in buying merchandise, which I'm not...but the conventions are packed with all kinds of merchandise for sale. I went to the Star Trek Experience...it was okay. It would have been more fun if I was with another Trekkie, rather than my fiance, who found the entire thing quite strange.
  4. I just think Fred's map is faulty :lol:
  5. I would enjoy this day more if it weren't repeating over and over again! Arg!
  6. Ill see it but i probably wont be buying the dvd.
  7. I'm not surprised its cancelled...I dont miss it, I never even watch it anymore. Wait several years and try again with a new series...a decade from now maybe. In a more interesting time period perhaps.
  8. No...the real question is who is going to volunteer to have mites put in their beds so the researchers can count the populations?
  9. The stardate converter is interesting but it doesnt apply to the sims. TPTB at paramount have admitted that there is no proper way to convert real dates to stardates on the show. The formula we use on the sims is the one that webby said, YYMM.DD. Pretty simple.
  10. Its to keep you on your toes.
  11. I knew Travis was Urkel!
  12. Notice the age limit is 12? Silly! Besides the STSF simulations are cheaper...hehe
  13. It took me 12 hours to engineer that image.
  14. Hey! :D :)
  15. ::whines:: Freeedd....Blu is trying to take away my point! ::pouts::
  16. I hope the hosts aren't feeling unappreciated :D Maybe we should all give Huff a big hug. Huff, yer cute, adorable, funny, brilliant, charasmatic, have a perfect shoe size for your height, your typing is top notch and the world would surely explode without you, and your donuts are superb! :) Seriously though, I think it doesn't get said enough that the dedication and loyalty that our GMs show to a game is just downright incredible. Really without the GMs we would have no sims...I always believe the players are what makes a sim, but the GM is truly the glue that holds it together. Its the one thing you can depend on to be there after everyone else has come and gone and come again.
  17. What does coffee have to do with Battlestar Galactica.
  18. And the specifications are pretty much all non-canon anyway.
  19. I dont think the GMs have ever even warned anyone here on the boards. For the most part people behave themselves, although the occassional argument arises on one topic or another. I wouldn't worry about it.
  20. The bigger the number, the stronger it is...thats the difference.
  21. She also technically shot him...since the little light in the phaser (that gives the post-editing guys a point of reference for adding the phaser beam) lit up when she handed it over, hehe.
  22. I agree. I mean when you have a show about the future where humans are escaping death and fighting robotic aliens taking over the world who are infultrating their interstellar starships with bio-engineered humanoid bots that look exactly like humans, you just have to wonder what those writers were thinking when they didnt make the show realistic. :D
  23. I think having the Romulans with limited ships is more for the benefit of the audience. If they showed a new Romulan ship every week, then how many viewers would really be able to tell the difference between a Klingon, Romulan, or other alien ship? The Klingons have a few ships...the Romulans have 1 main one..and when it appears on the screen you KNOW what race its from. Precip made a good point about the cross-section reduction of the Sovvy class. As we saw in DS9, the Dominion just ran circles around the huge Romulan Warbirds. It appeared to be a large, slow, bulky ship that relied on sheer brute force. The warbird itself is insanely oversized, perhaps for intimidation, but when it comes to a firefight its better suited to fighting one on one with another large starship. I mean most of the Deridex size is just hollow space, so it requires bigger engines and power supplies to fly it and shield it. So its a pretty inefficient vessel. The Norexans did seem underpowered but they were fast and manuverable. They had thin profiles, probably making them harder to hit. Since they're smaller, its safe to assume they also have a much faster production rate than the Deridex. Perhaps the Romulans just finally decided it would be better to create 50 sleek warships quickly instead of 20 powerful ones slowly. I think its safe to assume that the Norexans are designed to fight in swarms. I would also agree that the Deridex is still in service, but probably as a mothership supported by the major warbirds, the Norexans. Another theory I've always had about the Deridex is why the interior is hollow? I always thought of it as a 'carrier' type where it could protect several ships within its shields and interior from enemy fire.
  24. The episode had something to do with Daedalus but it had nothing to do with the starship? Ah they're just trying to hook the hardcore fans! Cheats! :D
  25. There was a Daedalus episode?!?!?! Ugh I hate that I havent been watching Enterprise. PS: I think the NX-02 should be destroyed 5 minutes out of spacedock, thus explaining why Starfleet decides not to make ships 5 years apart.
