Wow...nice to hear from you guys!
I'm sorry it took me about a week to get back here, but seeing several of you joining "the other game" recently, I felt I was moved to come back in here again. Rather than reply about 20 seperate times, I'll try to keep my responses to the above in one message.
Krueg, Saxon, Sears and Soth:Wow...that almost sounds like a Klingon law firm.
Hail, Brothers! I trust you'ver been keeping The Empire safe since I've been gone...you always had before when I was there and I can't imagine that you've suddenly stopped doing it. I miss being on you guys' wing. We had many a good time killing bad guys.
Sears, along with a few other new arrivals, has taken the plunge into "the other game." I'm seeing more of him now and that's a good thing.
Gook:What...
you withhold important, decision-making/breaking information from
me? Perish the thought! heheh....you're evil, man. All that time..you knew and you just let it happen! heheh...good to hear from you, Bro. I heard you were playing EVE...or at least had a while back. You still in there at times? We could always use another warrior in the group and you were always one of the best. I hope you and yours are well!
Kzinbane:Damn..Socky's right...lots of ghosts coming out of the woodwork. Good to hear from you, too. I'm sure any return I might make in SFC would probably just make me look bad...I'd been goin "J'inn" on asteroids and stuff, i'm sure of it. In EVE, you bounce off rocks and warp
through planets and such. Guns, missiles, drones and smartbombs kill you, but nothing else really does. I actually almost did come back for the last installment of GW but I heard how things were going and figured it probably wasn't a good idea because I'd have just flown Roimulan with my Brother Warriors. Maybe some other time.
C-Los:Howdy, man...hope you're well! We survived the "2's" with Jessica...she's 3 yrs old now and pretty sweet. She's really bossy, though...thinks she runs the place. Sounds like Admiral Wifey, actually.
Aly, on the other hand, is the devil incarnate. She's about as mischievous a kid as I've ever seen. Very cute, but damn...her motor goes non-stop and she has quite a temper. Very Klingon, actually...heheh.
Sockfoot::
Good to hear from ya, you old warhorse. I hope all is well with your family. I have no idea how you handle three kids. It's all I can do to keep my head above water with the two little terrors I have! They really eat into my leisure time...but then again, it's pretty cool to play with them too. There's a point each day, though, that I can't take any more of the Doodlebops, Boobah or the Wiggles or playing tea party with the kids, Buzz Lightyear and Woody and I have to log into EVE and break stuff. It get cranky when I don't get that time...heheh. What are you up to these days, gaming-wise?
Frey, Corbomite and t00l:Wow....very cool to hear from you guys, too. I miss flying with you guys as well. I hope everything is going well in your gaming and real lives, as well. I'm sure Frey is continuing to consolidate and build his empire. Nice work, bud. Corbo...have you started your business yet? I hope things are going well for you. I miss your wit and guidance. I had heard you were thinking of checking out EVE. Contact me, if so. I'd be glad to help ya learn the ropes (as I know them, anyway. ...and t00l...you still drinking that cheap scotch and dating Long Island chicks? tsk tsk!
I miss ya, bud...
Mog:I caught up a bit with you yesterday on EVE. It was good to chat with ya. The timing of your visit might be difficult for me to work with, but if there's a chance I can get to the east coast when you're hear, I'll do what I can. I was totally bummed I missed your tour last year. I heard it rocked and I was very jealous to have missed out on all the fun! It sounded like you were getting the hang of mastering EVE's mechanics after only six days in the game. I can't say i'm shocked, because you certainly mastered SFC. Just more of the same kind of excellence I'm come to expect from you. Heck, I think you caught on more quickly than I did...heheh.
SirGod:Named a pup after me, huh? I'm flattered, whether is was "Shawn"
or Dogmatix...heheh. I hope all is well with you and your wife. I know you were going through a rough patch a while back and I don't think I've had an update in quite a long time. I hope things have improved.
Agave:Wow...it is a small world! I wouldn't drop the "Lord Dogmatix" name at AEFA (heh...we call it "SpinCo" right now, due to the spin-off)...they're liable to call for an ambulance or something...cart you off to a padded room....heheh. What position were you applying for? I'm in the finance group (internal reporting). My pieace of it is currently based in Phoenix, but it's moving back to Minneapolis probably just in time for the dead of winter....and I think i'm going with it. *gasp* I wish you luck...and I remember some good times flying with and against ya.
Laflin:And I thought I was rid of
you, you cheese-boating punk! Glad to see you were well (relatively speaking). Now that I haven't played SFC2 in nigh on 8 months, you might actually have a chance at getting some internals. How nice for you!
Seriously, though....no wait...that was serious...I think.
Walleye:Heh..I'm probably going to have to get you to come into the city (Minneapolis) often so we can go sit at Brits or The Local and I can whine about how frigging cold it is. I'm skeered.
All signs are pointing to it being the freaking dead of winter when I'd move up there. Talk about adding insult to injury. I do like what I've seen of Minnesota, though. Maybe if I live up there we'll finally find the time to get together. I wonder if I can talk Gow into coming out of hiding and meet with us...
S'Cippy:Well, I was honestly so shocked at havign to father
two kids, Admiral Wifey and I decided we'd get her tubes tied so we didn't have anymore more unexpected births...heheh. Alyson is going to have to be a hellion on her own merits (and she's doing quite well at it, too). I shudder to think how it would be to have three kids. Anyway..i'm going to try to stop in here a little more often. Doing so this time has reminded me of how much I missi interacting with a lot of you.
Max:Ah yes..."weapons tests" or "Let me tell you about the time 3x 200 ISK cruise missiles cost me 20 million ISK."
HoochBring it on. I'm sure I'll have a little something to lob back at you with extreme prejudice.
Far:Heh...the old trial-by-fire method of Klingon advancement through the ranks. You did great then, my friend...and those were good times. If you think that was fun, some on over to EVE...I have another fun thing for you to try. We call it "tackling." This is when a frigate is armed with a micro-warp drive and some warp disruptors and rushes at battleships hoping to pin them down (tackle) long enough for the damage ships in the fleet to kill the target. Survival rate is very low. BTW...a Fred (Weamz) with a week-old character came down to low-security space with us when we joined the Fountain Alliance. Now he's one of the richest guys in our corp. His job when we made the move down from Empire space was to run point. If he got blown up entering a system, we knew we needed to stop and safe-spot.
He lived and no-one got ganked on his watch.
That should do it for now...forgive the (I assume) numerous typos...heheh.
