Topic: Out of work Pilot Looking for employment... (GW3)

Jealous of what? I'm not the one trying to start a popularity contest. Take personal responsibility and choose.

you know Mog, he could be checking out the responses to see the personalities of those he will fly with.  If I had been away a while and came back to lots of new faces and wasn't already biased heavily, I might look around and post to see the types of responses I got with purely an interest into the personality types.  This, of course, may or may not be the case here.  I don't know Raven well so couldn't make an approximation as to the accuracy of this statement but I'd still give the benefit of the doubt.

[IAF Lyrkiller]

Raven, fly w/ us kitties. we do have alot of fun on teamspeak.

of course, it will be your choice. no pressure of course...

Well who pissed in your cheerios moggy?  I fully intend on taking personal responsibility and choosing... I thought it might be a bit of fun to see who would post and how they would go about persuading a person who really hasn't made up his mind.  Most have done a wonderful job!  Some have taken the "SETI" tack... a smart call for those who wish to appeal to my friendships there... Others have told me what other gorns are doing (Bandwagon is a good tactic).  Other's have appealed to my sense of fun.  I hardly think it is any more a popularity contest than anything else here... I can honestly say that wasn't my intent.  Luckily other than you and Lepton, everyone else seems to just be having fun with it too...

So Mog, what you fling this time (As it appears that ISCheese will not be availiable  )?

[Mog]

Ah, my bad. I owe you an apology. I remembered you doing this before, many moons ago and jumped to a conclusion, evidently the wrong one. Sorry Sean.

As for what I'm flying, what little time I will spend will be as Klingon. I assume the ISC crack was for RT3 (or was it for the couple of hours I spent on LB5 as ISC?)? I remember our battles on there, the closest ones I had. Good fun I hope that you don't think I play ISC all the time though.

No worries... just didnt understand what had you so upset... From what I have seen in here there is a lot of banter and fun to be had... I thought I would make an informal way of finding out who was playing what and stir up a liittle fun at the same time (It should be noted that the what are you flying in GW3 was made after this thread).  As to me doing this before... well that is possible... although it would have had to been a long time ago... as I think it has been a long time (before LB5) since I had been on the Dynaverse... to be honest I played on GSA for the first time in AGES last night.

I am sure you don't play ISC all the time, and I know you are fine pilot... I just decided that if you could "tweak" my Personal responsibility attribute, I could taunt your recent choice of race.

GE-Raven

[Mog]

Heh, I was at work whilst posting, often an unwise thing for me to do

Recent race? ISc for a couple of hours, about 5 hours of Fed, 1 of Gorn and about 8 as Lyran

[GDA-S'Cipio]

Well, an old face deserves an old recruitment poster.




Now, Bruce, Get your lizard butt over to the Klingon border!!!

For too long have the lazy cats kept us awake with their midnight mewling.  Let us give them the mercy of spay and neuter!



For too long have the Feds mocked our prowess and ridiculed our Bruces.  Witness their crimes!



Rise up and show them the cold blood of a REAL soldier!

RULE GHADARIA!

It is either klink or Zinti... What eras this server coverring?

Got to admit I love the early Zinti ships... but the klinks own the CLs... 

Where are the rules for this guy posted anyhoo???

GE-Raven

I am not sure what the starting era is (think its 2270 though) and I haven't seen a website for the rules yet (Kroma? Jinn?).

As for which race to fly, you bring up a good point.  If you need the assistance of a better ship (i.e. the excellent D5 series) in order to make up for some rustyness with the game, completely understandable.  But if you do believe that the early/mid era may be an interesting challenge with a Mirak ...

Challenge yourself, don't take the easy way out.

[KBFLordKrueg]

Server starts in 2271 actually. Here the link for the rules page for all the GW series:

http://mkroll.asta.chicago.il.us/

I'm sure you will be able to get a wing if you feel a little rusty. If you have trouble, I'm planning on being online quite a bit, give me a shout and I'll fly your wing anytime, Raven.

I see three Klingons in the top 16, and a Romulan. 

You mentioned that somebody had played the "SETI Card".  That was me, and I'm gonna run a truck through it.  I sure hope you fly Klingon along with your other SETI pals like Dogmatix and I. 

You have worked with your SETI friends for almost three YEARS.  I personally registered on March 2002.  Along with others, I worked through the screensaver, figuring out how to get that command-line client to run, and then assembling an array of computers to run it.  I'm proud of those 9000+ work units.  It took a lot of work.  I remember the Mazeppa-Moofighters battle when I fully utilized my array to stop Moofighters onslaught on my place in the standings.  .  I had NINE computer crunching work units.  Three of those were in my tiny little den during a very hot Oklahoma Summer in 2002.  It got in the mid-80's in the den, and reached 90 a couple of times.  My kids and I simply dressed down to shorts, added fans, and CRUNCHED WORK UNITS.  I stoppe the Bovine advance when he was within about 25 WU's.

Do you remember your rise to the top?  That was a lot of fun.  Come join us for more fun in GW3.

If searching for Exterestrial Intelligence, I'd say the Klingon Empire is the last place you'd want to start at..........

The Kzin are definately the place to be!

P.S.  Hot babes that purr will make your quest more fun!

[Munin_Raven]

I am unceartain about anyone els but perhaps if you are used to haveing the back up of a particular race as you crush your enemies you would be more comfortable in thier vessels. the main thing i will miss is my plasma torps. at least we traded a few cloaking devices for those warp drives way back when.............


another romulan engages in the officer exchange program
(and flies klink while looting them for every tech secret he can see)

[Potemkyn]

Anybody need a Lyran pilot?

Now, don't get too excited about all this   

 
Po~

[KAT Chuut-Ritt]

The more the merrier, but as there are no Lyrans in then GW3 server you will need to select Federation, Mirak, or Klingon.

I'm sure you would be very welcome no matter which you choose.

[Mog]

Most Lyrans are flying Klingon for this, meow.

[Potemkyn]

Such limited choices!  Well, I suppose (should I ever get hooked up for the online game), I would go with the Klinks.

So, now what?

Bang your head into a wall until it grows some funny bumps, then learn to enjoy eating live worms.

The rest comes easy.

Welcome!

Go to the SFC2.net forums at:

and request access to the Coalition General War II and Klingon Forums.  If you cannot figure out how to do that, PM me there (user name Mazeppa") and I'll work the problem.
