And if you wish to add the two Admirals from my recent OOB update go ahead.

Post by **Beowulf** » 2004-08-27 05:33pm

Any chance of adding Oni to the list?

Thank you very much Sir.

I name you a Scholar and a Gentlemen. (Outside of the game, in game you can be a right bastard).

Once Oni does whatever the fuck it is he's planning to do, I'll add him to the list. I try to keep this down to people with a couple of action posts worth of stuff to talk about.

What? He checked into a hotel and took apart an alarm clock! Doesn't that warrant action as a major character in the STGOD?

He's a PC, just like Spyder is. I'm playing it slow, so no one can claim I'm pulling something out of my ass. For example, I've successfully managed to bring in a pair of small OU DC cores. Those of you who were paying attention know what those can do, if properly modified. I've also just managed to bring a quantity of explosives in. Wanton destruction will be coming, I assure you.

Cool, don't get me wrong, I have nothing against putting your guy in- he just needs a bit more face time.

Put him in now!

"Blew up a dynamite bomb, and then tried to nuke Draconis Capital."

Accord supported international cooperation in the Etern move.

Rogue 9 · Post by **Rogue 9** » 2004-09-08 04:50pm

Asgard and UPA opposed the Etern move, not supported it.

Post by **Beowulf** » 2004-09-08 04:51pm

I think we are farther into month 9 than merely on the cusp of it. From Tortuga being invaded to Draconis getting bombed should be somewhere around 2-3 weeks.

Yeah, I've got to agree. The Veithian report alone took two weeks to come out. Add in tranist times and the like and it'd be easily the middle or late Month 9.

Thirdfain · Post by **Thirdfain** » 2004-09-08 04:54pm

Roger that. Will edit. Let's say month 8 ends with the Etern declaration?

That works I guess.

Done, Month 8 now seperated.
