CS Screenshot Album

Dry Dock Disaster



Robert wanted a Dry Dock built for Soror, so I started working on his design ...



... with help from Chunk, ...



... discussing CS design strategy during the process ...



... and disaster struck right towards the end ...



... this was the first time I actually missed being in DWO Faction Comms since being kicked out - they have a bot programmed to insult Torin - fortunately I got invited to their new public room a couple of days back, so I have a sample for you all and all of you have been invited to drop in as well (screenshot posted after approval)



With help from Robert, I was able to get the build finished the same day ... and also managed to somehow not destroy the reactor, lol.

Happy 20,000.00 CE!!!!

We have a doughnut in the group with Aries and Psychosis

Gurba has a bad spelling day ...



... and it continues

Something about fluffy women ...

From old chat logs, Somers trying out all the sounds on the old java irc client
Edit: Somers has confirmed that this is from two days after his join date, so it's quite possibly his first appearance on NSA FComms

New newbie

Came back after being AFK for a while to see Gurba flooding the screen with "Aries_AFK", and couldn't figure out why he was obsessing over Aries, until I scrolled up to the start of the flooding ... I think I can still say that I can't figure it out

Gurba: Over 2k hours logged on CS related chat rooms

Aries claiming to be in the middle of darkest, deepest, untamed England ...




... and attempting to prove it not long after

Someone left behind 1 isaton of fullerite behind in v1

A Short History of Taleus in Chosen Space



I hope all of you remember our new friend Taleus from a few screenshots ago … if not, this is the time to scroll to the top of the page and take a look

He seemed promising, dropping in to chat, posting introductions ...



Even trading … somewhat ...



But then he was transferred a better ship and had his first encounter with the concept of escape pods. This short exchange with Gurba (snipped for readability) is his first known attempt to come to terms with it,

<Gurba> [17:14] <Taelus> How come in My Ships it displays "Raxian System - Sector 275 (Brax) - Grid 364" After I moved the ship somewhere else.
[17:14] <@Gurba> hmm
[17:14] <@Gurba> that's odd
[17:15] <@Gurba> are you sure you are in the ship and not in your escape pod?
...
[17:16] <Taelus> The ship I started with. Hybris loaned me a ship till later.
[17:17] <@Gurba> and wich one did you move?
...
[17:18] <@Gurba> I'd say just try moving it again
...
[17:18] <Taelus> Basian System - Sector 269 (Kaas) - Grid 302. This is where the ship is now
<Taelus> Raxian System - Sector 275 (Brax) - Grid 364. And when I go in "My Ships." it displays this.
[17:19] <@Gurba> I realy don't know what's going on
...
[17:22] <Taelus> Have to go visit real life. Its always interrupting my gaming.


I thought this was the normal newbie confusion with escape pods, but I was wrong ...



And my response was too late, lol ...











Goodbye Taelus.

We hope you get to enjoy other games.
