****(Banter. Nobody get mad.)*****

I do hope everyone can see the cowardice at work here. GD-acorn flying as romulan? Why would he do that? What could he be hiding from? The sequins of logic would work sort of like this.

GD-acorn caught me on 7.35 when I was in the wrong ship for the wrong job. He had PF's, I had a ship with one big plasma instead of several smaller plasmas. I had to run away. In other words, GD-acorn (also known as SNORElock) got very lucky!

I wanted a rematch, but clearly Acorn knew he was no match for me. He gave me a location to fight him at. I thought it was strange that he insisted I go through several enemy hex spaces instead of meeting me on the border and I wondered if there was some mission advantage he was looking for. But, since it was only Acorn, I wasn't afraid.

Well, there WAS an advantage. He had a friend there in the hex with him! Acorn spent the entire fight hiding behind Kroma's skirt. (That's my story, and I'm sticking to it!) Obviously he was afraid to fight me alone.

Now I come back after a weekend, and I discover that he's taken my weekend off to run up his score. And now to protect his lead he's decided to hide from me in the only way that is truly safe. The acorn is going to play as Romulan for DOE.

Such cowardice! A Gorn hiding as a Romulan!

Which Romulan ship has the most transporter bombs? Which Romulan ship has the most trctor beams and where are the asteroids? Where are the recruiting offices for teh Federation?

Of course, if Snorelock feels like redeeming his honor, I should be playing some this weekend. If he is FINALLY BRAVE ENOUGH TO FLY GORN again, I'll plant his acorn.

If he beats me, I'll manfully admit how lucky he got. (again). If I beat him then he can expect no mercy on the forums.

Not only did re run his mouth behind our backs while we were working out the tech issues for the other guys, but he can't even run it up right.

See my other post. Snorelock can't add.

It's funny. I've been staying out of the - hehe - "banter" but, when you include a side order of fed with that extra crispy Gorn, I felt I had to put in my two credits. So far, and I think I'm remembering correctly, none of the SOS heros has beaten me. In a wimpy old federation ship. And I'M a lyran. I think you'll see that the real feds will make your plasma hurt. Looking forward to you meeting Mr John Vaughn. When you see him, taunt him a bit. He really gets a kick out of that.

Mmmmmm. Maybe we should hold that side order till you can buy some in the grocery store, because I don't expect you'l be using me for the meal....

To paraphrase Shakespeare:

AMBASSADOR. Thus then, in few.
Your Highness, lately sending into Romulan space,
Did claim some certain dukedoms in the right
Of your great predecessor, King Edward the Third.
In answer of which claim, the Prince our master
Says that you savour too much of your youth,
And bids you be advis'd there's nought in Romulan space
That can be with a nimble galliard won;
You cannot revel into dukedoms there.
He therefore sends you, meeter for your spirit,
This tun of treasure; and, in lieu of this,
Desires you let the dukedoms that you claim
Hear no more of you. This the Dauphin speaks.

KING HENRY. What treasure, uncle?

EXETER. Tennis-balls, my liege.

KING HENRY. We are glad the Dauphin is so pleasant with us;
His present and your pains we thank you for.
When we have match'd our rackets to these balls,
We will on Romulus, by God's grace, play a set
Shall strike his father's crown into the hazard.
Tell him he hath made a match with such a wrangler
That all the courts of Romulus will be disturb'd
With chaces. And we understand him well.
