Am I the only one who feels old having had a pre-release account on the SFC1 Interplay boards?

It looks like I'm older than the pair of you......... I had a sobering thought the other day regarding age... I just got the Star Wars DVD set and realised that I'm older now than my MOTHER was when I first saw it.......

Fury:

As a representative (though not the only representative) from the D2 side of things:

1.  Am I supposed to tell the D2 RMs and A/RMs to go ahead and grab their appropriate racial ribbons?
2.  I'd be careful about drawing up ribbons for campaign participation, unless we get a system like Battleclinic has over here.  If campaign ribbons were handed out to cover as many campaigns as possible, including past campaigns participated in, many people would have 20-40+ ribbons just in campaign awards.

And on the clusters thing, your citations are worded generically enough that it becomes very difficult, if not impossible, to earn a second ribbon of the same class.  How many times can you go above and beyond the call of duty in a class you've already gone above and beyond in?  The only reason I called for Clusters in Brezgonne's case is because he's been doing the Tholian thing on SFC boards longer than SFC's been in existance.  For a race that hasn't been officially included in any SFC game yet.

I do realize that you can get doubled up from racial awards (RM for a race then a second citation for having gone above and beyond for that race).  In a worst case scenerio, you can just design a cluster device or 2, and the recipients are responsible to paste the cluster(s) into place on their own ribbons.

Brez isn't talking sheer Physical age, cause there's a lot of people here physically older than us, and I think there's even one or 2 that can hit mine and Brez's combined age.

We're talking age as in how long we've been following SFC.  Brez has been around since the SFC 1 boards first opened, and I think I've been around since the spring after the game got released...

With a copyright date of 1999, that means many of the people following SFC since the beginning have been here close to (if not longer than) 5 years now...  :o

Some Dynaverse awards would definitely be welcome. I suggest the following categories:

- Dynaverse server admin award, in recognition of significant contributions in either running or designing a dynaverse campaign (usually done by a team these days)

- Forum administrator award, in recognition of running forums and/or managing fleet communications for a Dynaverse campaign (usually the moderators or admins but also RMs as well)

- Fleet awards for participating in a Dynaverse campaign. The FPF already has a set of these awards, however we do not currently have the associated icons to go with them. These range from highest prestige, number of kills, etc.

- Mission scripters award, in recognition for creating mission scripts used either on GSA or a Dynaverse campaign.

- Technical support award, in recognition for outstanding contributions in technical areas of the game eg. SQL testing, decoding blob formats in the campaign flatfile, creating utlity programs, etc etc. (possibly already covered by the Sisco award but needs further clarification)

Just so you wouldn't miss it on the D2 forum I'll repost my thoughts here.

I would suggest some Dynaverse additions.

Say:

The Nutter Award for players reaching the rank of Fleet Admiral or 300k on a server

The Mega Nutter Award for players reaching over 500k on a server

The Flubot Award for Players achieving the highest prestige on a major server

The Victory Award for players achieving more than 25 p v p kills on a server

The Dynaverse Ace Award for achieving more than 50 p v p kills on a server

The Montezuma Award for capturing 5 live opponents on a server

The Tripoli Award for capturing 10 live opponents on a server

The Dynaverse Saint Award for Adminining a major server

The Mother Teresa Award for Admining more than 5 major servers

The Holy Order of the T-bomb for intentionally killing a wingman on a major server

The Jerry Springer Award for mediating and sucessfully resolving disputes on the Dyna and the Forums


These are just some suggestions



P.S. 

You might want to rename the awards with Federation connotations, sure not too many Klingon players would enjoy having the James T. Kirk Award, or perhaps allow races to contribute alternative names for the same ribbons.

I'd also rename the Darwin Award as there is already a more famous Darwin award in existance.....  ;D

I would be honoured to nominate Nannerslug for the Sisko award for his well appreciated efforts on the GAW mod for SFC3 (oh and the rest of  the development team who work in the background to make it happen). Generations at War in my opinion is what SFC3 should have been straight out of the box.

Just a quicky question...the era awards...should we just use them, or be nominated? Most of my stuff has been pre-TOS and Lost Era, so.... ;D

Oh, and I want to nominate guest aka red-green aka James Formo for the Hydran award...only logical. ;)

I nominate J'inn for the Sisko Award, Andromeda Quasar, and Archer's Star because he's a community leader, contributer, and has been granted a healthy chunk of +karma (93 pts.) by the rest of the community :thumbsup:

Well since you don't seem to have them yet...

I'd like to nominate Sandman3D for the Pre-TOS and TLE era awards because, well he's made a lot of kickarse pre-TOS and TLE era models. Come to think of it Darkdrone did a load of pre-TOS stuff too, I mean a mountain of pre-TOS stuff.

Since Mackie has already posted unashamedly how he deserved awards I'd also like to point an imaginary internet finger in a subtle fashion towards all those federation kitbashes I've released recently (and some I did ages ago) *points his imaginary finger* LOL obviously Mackie's done far more so I don't really compare but a little self-promotion never hurt anyone. Except possibly the Russian royals in 1917. ;)
If I determine the enemy's disposition of forces while I have no perceptible form, I can concentrate my forces while the enemy is fragmented. The pinnacle of military deployment approaches the formless: if it is formless, then the deepest spy cannot discern it, nor the wise make plans against it.

Okay guys, just to let you know, im going to be revamping the system. I feel it was sloppily executed with no real criteria - this much will be remedied...

Also for those who have personal sites, there are now going to be two images you recieve when you get a medal:

One is the Ribbon that you put in your signature - also there is going to be a cluster system: for example,

The Thompson award for the first time:

The Thompson award for the second time:

The Thompson award for the tenth time:


and also there is giong to be the actual medal, which you can download and palce on your own personal site
For example, the Thompson award:


I have also brought this to the Moderators attention, and hopefully it may be officially endorsed by the moderator.
