Many of us have a love for the SFC series.  We will always have a warm spot in our hearts for Taldren and the people from there who brought us a series of games we just love, as well.

Some people like to be criticial about everything.  Life is too short for that.


Amen to that, Kortez....

Sigh... You will be missed Taldren.

Now if it isn't in bad taste...

Anyone find it interesting that after Nanner fires his 21 photon salute into the void of space that somehow 5 of them still hit a klink?

 ;D

Humor is how I deal with most things.

Even when I was cloaked....hehe

I would like to add this....if I may be so bold....

Having lost people who meant alot to me...I share this (I think it aplies here as well)

No one ever really dies....what makes you YOU is more than mere atoms and electrons......whatever your beliefs...the majority believe that your life force passes on....

So in reflection.....Taldren lives on....in us....the spirt...the game....and the love of the game...will continue...

As long as at least two of us have connections and PC's that will run SFC.....Taldren lives on...

The game existed BEFORE taldren....During taldren...and now...After Taldren....

We pay tribute as long as we care...both about the game..AND each other...

A very moving post. And very true.

I'm always being impressed by the people around me, that's a good sign :) :thumbsup:

I am sorry to see Taldren has left this world. Perhaps in the mirror universe Taldren is working on SFC8 or 9.

We need to send an agent over there and steal SFC4. I hope they got it right! LOL :rofl:

The news reached the remote planet after the event, but still in time to be viewed from a large telescope as it was so far away.  When the light finally reached him, he watched silently, remembering the early days and being chosen to serve.  To test and shakedown, then to take those early ships to task in an ever changing universe.  Thru 4 ages he remembered the friends, the conflicts, the adversaries.

Even though he was far from the core, there was some satisfaction in knowing that it was all operating without him.  Now that feeling is gone.

When the sun finally blinked out of existance, SFCspoonman wiped his eyes, silently said a few solenm words to himself and walked to his shuttle...

"The homeworld may be gone, but there are colonies out there that are carrying on the tradition",he thought, "and I have been too far away."

He fired up his engines and headed for the nearest colony...

It was a memorable day in the annals of klingon history and that of the entire alpha quadrant
as we all payed tribute to the loss of taldren this day, races from all over the guadrant
rising together to pay tribute and light the way to sto vo kor for the soul of our galaxy.

*bellows let loose aboard the IKV Dragon's Fire, reverberating througout the hull as our disruptors fade off
in salute deep into the coldness of sapce, a coldness felt in the heart of the captain*

Would it be too cheesey to re-visit this post when we can fire Webs, Shield Crackers, and DisDevs?

I think that would be a fitting tribute. The Dream didn't die, does that make sense? The spirit of Taldren is still alive?

*cough*

The Spirit of Starfleet Command is still alive. We honour our dead, and fight for the living !!!!!
