No post in about 9hrs. What is going on here?

It's a disaster!

...want me to post tonight. We'll be unduly undulated by disasters of drunken proportions. The flux capacitor will get fluxed.

And Irish Car Bombs will be exploding everywhere.

With .. drawal .. setting .. in!

Had to play in the yard yesterday. Post coming soon.

Just enjoying being home. Catching up on "Honey Do's".

Tann got a post in but we haven't heard from Impulse. I would hope that he'd enter a report that told of the flash and shock to the Chief Engineer. I believe that came after Rock went to the shuttle bay. I have to get better with following the time stamps.

Working on the staff duty roster for security. Set up security teams that would pretty much match the daily duty rotation. Sharing it with Tann. I guess I should share with Impulse too.

Not that it matters much but depending on when we call to the security ward room we have a name we use instead of just Petty Officer.

Impulse, I have put some reference material in my Dropbox to share with Tann. If you want to look it over I can email you the link. T_catt's stuff on Q&A page one is very good. I did condense some the security info about the Saber class ship for maybe a quicker reference. Good to be able to talk phaser banks and photon torpedo tube the same.

Hiya Ody. Yeah, the repairs and subsequent shock were pretty much the last things to happen before the containment field came down, so it's a safe bet Rock was already there.

Will be PMing with SilentOne to RP Thorson's Sickbay visit; that'll pretty much be the next post from Thorson. But he's suitably extricated from the main doings at this point. If we get on to other things, I'll just do our Sickbay interlude as a back post.

ADDED THOUGHT: I am loving the Logbook for keeping timelines straight; this is the first Trek game I've played in that we used it; VERY valuable game reference. Kudos!

I don't want to drag this out much further. I have two active players sitting on Starbase 118, waiting to play... and obviously, our plot lies there.

Can we get this sickbay visit wrapped up? If RL is in the way, let's backpost it like Duncan says. I would prefer to have it done first, if we can.

Regarding Impulse: the guy has yet to make a single post. PMs with him have been almost having to talk him into playing, as he has repeatedly mentioned how he's not really comfortable with Trek. At this point, I think that it is safe to consider Ensign Agris to be an NPC. If Impulse decides that he wants to play, great... but let's stop holding our breath over that.

Regarding the logbook: glad that you like it! In the maiden cruise of the Discovery, we realized that it could be really tough to keep the timeline straight with lots of people posting, backposting, etc. The logbook (located in the Trek Tools, for those who have never looked at it), is super useful for keeping events in order.

It's my holdup, Olan; haven't had a lot of time to trade PMs with Silent this weekend, lot going on, and company coming over this evening.

I made it a point to make Thorson's exit such that things can continue from other departments; he's really on cruise control until needed after the pod handoff and rendezvous for the escort.

Will see if Silent and I might be able to find a time to meet in DragonChat or on FB or something, RP the thing in real time to save PM-swapping time.

Nah, I'm not trying to single anyone out, just expressing what I hope we can do. I know that I'm being very much "foot on the gas" with the plot of this game, but experience says that if we don't push, things taper off in a hurry.

...to keep things moving and to introduce some "shenanigans" that Dunc and I have had planned from the get go.

Nothing major, really, just pre-planned collab posting that Dunc and I have wanted to do for awhile. No plot hijacking or anything, I swear.

Yay for collaborations!

Yeah, I'm also interested to see how Jessica and her "by the book" attitude will work on a tiny ship like this.

Besides continuing with PO Owen and Tochi telling her how these bridge rotations didn't mean she was off the hook for her exams I could think of little else to address without getting ahead of the game... Felt the need to post something, though.

P.S. Signing off for a bit to take a load of donations to Goodwill with the wife. Back later.

T_catt you had Drake request Rock to research battle tactics.
I am have John assist so is there a PM or really something in the Star Trek reference world that fills what you are looking to find.

John is going to have his suspicions that the group not favorable to the Federation has some covert backing. At the moment I don't know who would be the most likely in this area.

I think we are before the Dominion Wars and Cardasians.

Ody, sending you a PM.

Yes, 2365 is before the Dominion Wars, before the Cardassians really come onto the stage (DS9 is currently under their control), and before the Borg.
