I loved the irony of it more than anything. Ah okay I'll fire up something brief for history then it's done :)

You and your marsupial eyes judging me over the rim of what I can only assume to be a pint of fosters.

Nah it's a stubby of cider, not one for beer anymore :)

[Darkmatter]

I'll start asking anyone with an ACCEPTED sheet to post it in the compendium linked now in the original post.

[Darkmatter]

Staying on this chatzy for the night if anyone has any questions. I'd like to resolve everything today and tomorrow to begin getting ready for the 24th.

Well, I've decided to withdraw my interest from Interstellar-Ascension.

While it's a solid-enough roleplay manned by a decent GM and a well-rounded collection of writers, I find myself lacking the inspiration and drive needed to continue working on my current faction concept. Part of the issue stems from the fact that the roleplay itself is on too grand of a technological scale for me to properly work with. Suffice to say, I can't quite bring myself to run a near-future Earth-like faction in a galaxy that's 1,000 years in the future; having access to the powerful technology that would inevitably come with such a boost in time isn't my style of going about a science fiction nation roleplay.

It's like running a WWII-era nation in 2014, kind of. If that comparison works.

Have fun I guess? Maybe if a character-driven plot comes about, I'll resurface to take part---if possible that is.

You must be looking at a different Roleplay because this one has a great GM

As for character driven plot. This will be almost entirely character driven plot.

Good sci fi is about awesome tech and lasers. Great sci fi is about who's shooting those lasers and why.

The only part ill have trouble with is the actual combat as it involves a lot of actual science detail. Some fields I have no experience aside from the concept!

I just hope I do not get taken advantage of.

At least it will be a fun story.

[Darkmatter]

You'll be fine

[Monkeypants]

Some how your answers bring me comfort

[WilsonTurner]

You know how space combat would be easier?

If we had holographic tables.

[Darkmatter]

Combat will most of the time be preordained between players and as such easy work with and plan.

Or else it'll be me flinging the All Party about. Every so often I'm going to roll a dice have them attack someone

[Abysse]

What if we all just bought space engineers and went to town using it to decide how our IC space battles turn out. :P

[Isotope]

Ties the wave monkey.

Mind wave....

[Darkmatter]

Yes, all battles will be decided by games of Sins Of A Solar Empire.

[Isotope]

Nuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

[Abysse]

I'm absolutely horrendous at that game. D:

gg

[Monkeypants]

I'm a boss at sins. The combat phase of this rp is mine if that's the case.

Yall might as well write up defeat posts.

[null123]

I dont even have Sins

[Darkmatter]

I really hope everyone realises I was joking...

Fun fact!
Everyone with a newly finished NS can you please PM it to me. This means any previously accepted players need not to but anyone who has finished a sheet since I posted the review. It saves trawling through the thread.

Actually also, as well as that, anyone with a finished NS, accepted or awaiting approval, send me the permalink to the post. The endless digging in the thread is heartbreaking time to link them all on the OP.

So ya I lied, there was no fact.

[Ollumhammersong]

Everytime I sit down to try and finish my bloody sheet something comes along and pulls it away. I really hope I can finish it by tonight.

Also darkspleen, Did you have any further ideas on a shared history with the protectorate? And I believe Sigma inquired of this as well x amount of days ago. If either of you are still interested I am willing to pop onto a mibbit channel or something at a later time to try and hammer things out.

If anyone else wants to try and befriend the protectorate send a PM with an idea or just a hello and we can talk over a few things.
