[Shroom Man 777]

Well, since this is a more adult affair, I can understand why I can't bring Chim Chim. He might spill drinks since he's just a baby!


EDIT:


Alan Shroompard better NOT explode in front or above of all the world leaders!

[PeZook]

I'm there. Do we launch around New Year? Because that would allow us to roll New Year and Succesful Launch parties into one!

I don't see why not, though IIRC the launch was scheduled much earlier and didn't happen yet only because I was busy. But hell, we can retcon it

EDIT: BTW, does your jet feature pole-dancing stewardesses aboard too?

[CmdrWilkens]

So with editing broken I can't add anybody to the treaty signature list but I know Canissia has signed since I was last able to edit. Has anyone else signed and I missed before I start either offering goodies or organizing worldwide boycotts ?

As a signatory to the biowarfare prohibition treaty, I'd like to know what goodies you have to offer.

I have lots and lots of rotting Astarian beef, it can feed a population or give them salmonella so its really kind of a gag gift.

What do YOU think?

[Karmic Knight]

Hmm....I wanted to kick Shroompard to orbit today, but can't. Monday seems like the closest possible date.

Isn't it New Years Day, today I mean? 2011.

Great Idea.

Also, I will not miss kicking a human being into space.

[RogueIce]

That's right bitches, I now have ISDs! Well, ISDDGNs, but close enough.

Fear the MESS and our STAR destroyers!

Air MacMillan will like to join the Mach 3 air freighter thinggy.

Come on! Space launch!

[Karmic Knight]

So, does anyone know the political situation in the ASFR since Stas left it to die?

I recall it getting hit with one of shep's bio-missiles, but who is in charge now and what are they doing?


Also, Gizmonic Air would like in on the Mach 3 air transport.

[Lonestar]

Remember, I have two STAR Cruisers under construction(Ronaldus Magnus and John Smith) although neither has reached the "launch" stage.

Shroom....what do you mean "join"? Is air McMillan a airline or aerospace company?

Air MacMillian is an aerospace company.

Your puny star cruisers shall fall. In a few decades, of course, since those projects are enormous, but we will have Orion Ships

P.S. Phew. That was a long break from SDN World, I hope we get some fun after the Space Race kicks in earnest... but seriously, what can one have "under construction" when we recently suffered an economic hit from the Shep-Astaria war that will take a few years at BEST to rectify?

P.P.S. I know that "STAR" cruisers are referring to naval ships, but Korolevsky read the newspaper headline only ("Old Dominion constructing STAR cruisers") and went off with the Orion ship idea earlier proposed by Baluevsky

The project began at the start of the game and most systems were tested and ready before the great shit fest?

[K. A. Pital]

Yeah, but large naval vessels, which one had under construction, would get stuck & delayed for several month after the Shep Astaria war most certainly.

[PeZook]

If there is an awesome way to spend New Year's, flying in orbit at 7 kilometers per seconds is it.

Happy new year's from Alan Shroompard, and peace for all mankind!

EDIT: And wow, BnL is trying to scam the Zorian government so hard

Yah know, that fella up there is a perfect target for some SM-3s ...

[K. A. Pital]

If someone killz him, ze sky vill fall on his hed. Don't be tempted. That's major, major asshattery...

Aw... I'll just content myself with painting him with radar.

[PeZook]

Actually, Shroompard is flying slightly higher than the max ceiling of the SM-3, unless Fingolfin has some awesome ones

I'll wait until he makes his descent then. *or maybe not*

[PeZook]

Okay, I guess the Byzantine Navy doesn't get to participate in any more capsule recoveries ever

[Fingolfin_Noldor]

*shrugs*

*waits 10-15 years for Sea Platform to be ready*

Nah, they are just trying to get Royal Areospace Engineering to build a Spaceship One type affair to linger in Zero G for a bit before comming back down to Earth.

Yeah, for 50 million. Not a scam at all, good sir!

BTW, Siege, Mission Control is actualy located at Comona Island, Shroomania. Jerusalem houses launch control facilities and backup mission control.

[Lonestar]

Yeah, but large naval vessels, which one had under construction, would get stuck & delayed for several month after the Shep Astaria war most certainly.

And....You do realize that, alone of the MESS participant nations, the OD hasn't progressed to the "launching hull" stage? Only recently(past 6 months or so in-game) has the OD reached "cutting steel" stage?
