YYAAAAAARRRRRRHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

Thanks a ton HB!  This was a GREAT server - I had a ball!

It was groundbreaking in a bunch of ways, and that's all due to your hard work - I can't say thanks enough!

THANK 'E THANK 'E THANK 'E!!!!!!

While I'm on it - I owe big thanks to DemonFly as well, I couldn't have had the fun I did with the roleplaying without his support and sense of humour.  It was fun to fly with and "with" you D'fly, I'd welcome the chance to fly for you again anytime!

thanks!

I don't think an admin has ever worked so hard on a servver, and all the hard work provided so many innovations and so much enjoyment that we can only say  :notworthy:

Of course I don't know if any admin will ever again be so masochistic as to attempt anything like this again, but if he does I can only suggest he try to assemble a small team of helpers to handle some of the less critical functions.

If my assistance can be used in anyway for future projects of this nature I will happily volunteer as this server has more than repaid me for any meger services I can offer for the future.

As I said in another thread
Didn't ply much (hate pirate ships) but the background and storyline alone made it worth following
Can't even imagine the amount of work that went into this one

Fantastic job HB, you're an inspiration to any admin  :thumbsup: :notworthy:

Would love to see you on my actual side next server eheh.  It was great having someone to plot against, while being with him.  I have never seen so many people tell me "I would be so PISSED at him(Shtarker) if I were you"(at least 7 times)  " The way he harrassed you and actually shot at you during a 2v2 was appalling."(twice) "I hope you KILL him time and time again"(multiple times). 

IT was a blast plotting with you all that animosity.  Then the Skaren putting his trade route in my space, another inovation not thought of by admins, and then my attempt to place both trade routes in same hexes(dissallowed).   Then the "coup de gras" the defection, which did no harm to either side as the points for the kills(where I killed 2 of my newest wings, ie:beasts, in 2 missions run on 2 hexes they had already maxed, were to ballance out my time as an enemy(though some disagreed A LOT, and figured I was waisting time ei: 1 hour, where I should be flipping hexes for them instead).  Well, things cant always be seen as within limits of the server, and checked beforehand with the admins.  Mistakes were made on the issue by all sides, but reguardless, I would do it again because it fell within roleplay and was great fun.

All in all, it was a great server even with the total downloads neaded.

Dave, come fly for FSD next server.  I promise great comradery, and as much flipping or PvP as you  can take.

Outstanding Server. I did not mind to much getting blown up by the AI ;D  The one thing I wont miss though are those Freighters that move at speed 30, and drop everything but the kitchen sink at you. ;D

The server was a monument of admin work.  I suck royally in Pirate ships and I need a lot of work in them.  I mightily wish I had had more time to play it.  It was a HOOT getting to turn traitor on my wing in a mission with AI for us +the enmey.  A jolly fun romp and a refreshing change that should play a bigger part in other servers as well. 

Hail the mighty Herr Burrt!!

I was able to logon a few times. Totally not enough to discover all the gems you put into this from what I've read. I really hated not having the time to get into it. I really wanted to experience 1st hand what u did.

Now... I've busted my ass on servers before... but it appears you worked harder than I ever have on any server I've done and came up with some seriously ground breaking stuff. Again, I'm pretty mad I wasnt able to play it. I really hope you share what you learned how to do in the dyna admins forum. I'll be looking forward to reading it.
