Simming Confusing  But Fun

Boy did I have a time Wednesday night at the academy sim.

I was made 2AMO, and things got confusing pretty quick.

I was jumping from one situation to another. I, believe it or not, actually transported to the planet from deck twelve

without a transporter! And I got to die when I got there.

Beat that! :laugh:  :laugh:

 

I also was simmming Monday night when I got booted.

So I guess last night was my third sim, but it would have been my fourth.  

 

I am working toward graduating, but until I do I'm having a ball!!!

believe me when i say this, GM's not only have Q powers, they like to abuse them.  A few months back I was doing an academy sim for fun, me and my away team when to the surface of the planet where i was instanly killed by a tribe of midget warriors...sad, and yet funny stuff  :(

You could do a site-to-site transport

 

On the other hand, the first away team's shuttle arrived on the planet without ever having left the ship.  Now that requires the powers of Q!

 

(But boy was that a fun sim!)

Of course since transporters can lock onto people with or without their com signals there really is no need for a transporter room per se.  You could do it all from the bridge.

True, but I always got the impression from the movies and shows, that site-to-site transport was reserved for emergencies, and much less reliable than using the transporter room.

Hey there,

 

Glad to hear your enjoying yourself. That, despite what anyone might tell you, is the point. :(

Hey everyone, I was the TAC officer that night. I had a GREAT time, and it was only my second academy too. Oh, and next time, I will try to get the shields up quicker, BEFORE the bridge crew can be tortured and sold to slavery   :(  .

For everything you can do, the GM's have an answer.  Let's say you did get the shields up quickly.  Soon afterwards, there would have been:

ACTION: Romulans fire on ship, shields go down.

 

Whatever happens, don't blame yourself for destroying the ship -- there's nothing you could've done.  Just have fun participating in its demise.

Midget warriors?  What a cool idea ... shame I didn't think of it  ::angry::   I was thinking of an away team that gets abducted by a Hell's Angels gang....  hehehehe  :)

actually i alwasy thought that when they did the site to site they sent you back to the transporter room and to your next destination.

Stron,

The safest way to go on a starship is to call everyone Sir, females included.

That way hopefully you won't get fired out a torpedo tube!!!!
