I hate when silliness escapes me. I have a setup, but can't reach the payoff.

At stage left, we have Looney Tunes Toons. At stage right we have Babbit.

Alas, I can't figure out a scenario where Babbit has to ask Doug to give him the bird...

  Elite Dangerous - Distant Worlds 2
Posted by: Logan Darklighter - 05-22-2019, 05:42 PM - Forum: The Legendary - Replies (13)

So - what's been taking up a lot of my time for the last 6 months - and why I'm leveling rather slowly on the new server? 


Well - recently I've had some health issues. Mostly a stomach flu followed by a one-off day of unrelated food poisoning about a week later. Ugh. 

But MOSTLY it's been that I've been part of a fleet of 10,000+ Commanders in Elite Dangerous. Participating in mining for materials to set up a Starport at the heart of the Galaxy. Being part of the Hull Seals sub-group that helps repair CMDRs who have banged up their ships. And exploring and cataloging new Points of Interest along the way. 

On that last note - I've had two Stellar points of interest approved and added to the map at EDSM

One was named "Born to the Purple" which is a reference to an episode of Babylon 5. But also quite descriptive of the system as a whole. It has a B-Class Star that radiates light on the Violet to Ultraviolet end of the spectrum and - along with some purple colored protostars that help reinforce the color - tinges the entire system in a striking purple light. The Gas Giant is particularly gorgeous. 

[Image: gUsgqx5l.png][Image: rYtC8cUl.png]


(That is of course, my ship. The Azhanti High Lightning, configured for long range exploration as well as carrying supplies and drones for repair and even re-fueling of other ships in distress. Though I'm not officially part of the Fuel Rats group.) 

The other approved addition to the Galactic Map is "The Gates of Tartarus" 

[Image: gates_of_tartarus.jpg]

And they used my flavor text verbatim: 
The Gates of Tartarus - Two Neutron Stars - Stellar remnants - frame an S-Type Giant - a star in it's dying stage of life. Two spirits call to their brother to pass the threshold and join them in the land of the dead. Beyond lies the Phoenix nebula - the symbol of rebirth.

I'm on the last leg of the outbound journey headed for Beagle Point. One of the farthest systems possible to reach and 64,000+ Light years from Sol on the far side of the Galactic Center. 

It's been a hell of a trip. And it'll be a long LONG way back.

  Impeachment
Posted by: Labster - 05-22-2019, 04:00 AM - Forum: Politics and Other Fun - Replies (8)

It begins.  In the past 36 hours, a U.S. House of Representatives vote on impeachment has moved from likely to inevitable.

Nancy Pelosi has been trying to hold the Democratic caucus together, so that it looked like it was a slow, deliberate path, if any impeachment.  It's not always good for the impeaching party, as Republicans learned in the 1990s.  But as Trump has stopped all cooperation with House investigations, the situation was getting more untenable.  The belief is that Trump would rather have the impeachment fight, so he can have something to run against in 2020.

The inciting event was Republican congressman Justin Amash calling for President Trump's impeachment.  And suddenly, it got really uncomfortable for a whole lot of progressive democrats to be to the "right" of a Republican member on impeachment, when, let's face it, the base is out for blood.  By late afternoon yesterday, it looks like cracks have appeared within the leadership team in the House, with members giving impeachment-adjacent speeches.

There have also been suggestions from Judiciary Committee members that the first impeachments should be Attorney General Barr and Treasury Secretary Mnuchin, for withholding evidence from Congress.

It's going to be a long trip, everyone.

Good on them.  Trump's cronies can scream all they like, but this is exactly the sort of "taking back state's rights" that conservatives claim to campaign for.

  Mind's I - Mind/Psi Dom
Posted by: Ankhani - 05-21-2019, 07:46 PM - Forum: Build Advice - No Replies

I'm already fairly committed as far as the powersets for the character go, and the numbers are encouraging, but I also am not terribly imaginative and a lot of the build choices are probably "because I can" and not "because it's better that way". Case in point, Permahasten - I can get up to Perma-Dom without it, but I didn't really have any other plans, so why not? Making a Mid's build is free, and I never got to 50 with the character anyway.

Considering my much reduced playtime and starting resource base, anything that might be done to help keep things reasonable (I don't know the state of the economy in game) would be appreciated. All I really need is good survivability, and I imagine Perma-Dom is the best way to get there.

  Writing help?
Posted by: Shader - 05-21-2019, 04:26 AM - Forum: The Legendary - Replies (6)

So how to put this?

I haz ideas... and am not OpMegs or Logan or Bob for that matter. Ideas for character snippets and whatnot relating to CoH/V. 

Would someone mind helping me flesh them out? For example, I just scribbled out a little something to hook into that foundation idea of Acyl... which was already part of my characters backstory but it fits so well goddamit I need to get it out now! 

The issue is... I look at the scribbles and.... its a hot mess. It needs more something. What that something is.... I got no clue. 

Does anyone have a spare five minutes to read and then laugh at this attempt at verbiage?
