Pax: the discussion thread

No, I don't mind Silver, have fun with MaCurdy. Just make sure he gets home sometime or else the wife will give him a hard time.

 

Yay I think its time for Carter to get his target though

Done Enjoy Nathan

 

So, I wonder what Mort is to say to the crew in the communicator.

 

something weird that will piss trin off
U know, Mortimer like

 

I haven't played long enough to know how to make a character tick. But I can say some interesting space case things.

 

Hehe got it ^.^

P.S Had a long day, i'll try and catch up with everybody tonight or tomorrow morning, just trying to think up of some ideas, you already know how it is people xD

See you all later!

 

I didn't think going into details at a brothel were a good thing to do on a writing forum, so I diverted Nathan a bit...

Oh, and Mort, to make Trin tick, I think a simple crazy greeting should do the trick!

 

lol

A crazy greeting. None of Mort's greetings are crazy.

 

/Salute

Hopefully we will see you guys soon in the future. May I suggest writing a grim and uncertain fate for the two of them to split them up from the rest of the group in-game and leave them a backdoor should they return?

 

I agree, something that will take them from the game, but allow them to come back...

Oh, and Mort, I was not expecting that... Trin's going to be pissed...

 

We three the scheming little sods
Heheh whenever i write a sex scene NRG, I dont actually write it, i usually just write the before and after whilst avoiding the juicy bits in the middle Gives the audience the jist without going overboard

And Hurry silver! I want oliver to track down us coz that will be a hella fun situation to write

 

I was thinking of that, but I realised Pappy and Trin would butcher Nathan when they found out...

 

Ah well it'd be a laugh

 

Absolutely! I can't wait until i'm finally able to interact with the misfits I've been anticipating it haha

 

took control again EF, wanted to get things moving along but we can wait around if you'd like.

 

If you weren't going to get things moving, I was, so don't worry about it.

 

Had a busy day (it's 23:32 my local time as I'm writing this), and I didn't have time to post Akinlabi's latest chapter.

Will do tomorrow morning

 

Ditto

sorry i haven't posted guys, been stuck doing a lot of stuff for my family, and I just got into a new relationship with a girl who means a lot to me :redface:

Oliver will be seen very, very soon. I'll probably sprinkle in some some action in there too in my next posts. Hope you all have a great night, see you all tomorrow and btw awesome posts to the cast recently, I will strive to match all of your writing talents

 

Ah girls I was in a relationship recently, God she meant a lot to me... buuut stuff happened, bad stuff, and we were immature, and it's never been the same. Even as friends I don't think it'll ever be good again. Ah well, one moves on Hopefully to greener pasture *SLAP* OW!
*ahem* sorry my common sense just reminded me this is a writing forum and not a gossip site. I think I'll move to Spain. Spanish girls *WHACK* *Unconscious*

 

Hmm... Carter obviously reflects his creator .

Anyways, I don't want to rush you or anything, but could Carter step in and save Nathan and Mort from Spectre? She doesn't seem too pleased to see us.

 

she just doesn't know who you guys are, she might need the obligatory introduction:redface:

 

Ok, so Akinlabi finally managed to draw Grieger into the open. (I apologize if some of my posts expanded a a stretch too long )

As I see it, there are several options:
1. Wolf tags him while the man follows Akinlabi to his spaceship, where they perform the transaction (assuming the contraband does indeed exist).
2. Tagging, and we somehow create a diversion, so the transaction is cancelled (e.g. police shows up, Akinlabi disappears...)
3. Tagging, then Grieger blows his short fuse over Akinlabi's mysterious replies, and chaos ensues.

Let me know how you think the story would be most interesting, or simply roleplay your part (you may assume Akinlabi, escorted by Rico and three more thugs, are already advancing toward Star Wolf's ship).

 

Oh boy, lemme see, I gotta read the posts again and I'll try to think of something that will compliment your posts. Hope I don't screw it up

EDIT: Okay I read your post again and I must admit I'm a little confused, so I won't post and let you take the lead. I like the idea of following through with the contraband transaction and getting close enough to tage Rico then. I think that's interesting enough and logical for storytelling purposes as well as adeventures sake...just be careful not to get too close, these guys can't be trusted

 

Timeline

2004 - More than 2000 unmanned robotic systems are deployed by the U.S. military in Iraq.

2009 - President Obama ends the Federal ban on stem cell research

2010 - the genome of over 190 animals have been mapped, providing clues into what makes humans different from and similar to animals at the genetic level. More than 12,000 unmanned robotic systems are deployed along with the U.S. military ground forces in Iraq.

2012 - The Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory produce a substantial amount of energy in a laboratory using laser technologies to achieve fusion. The amount of power is too low to impress critics and meet economic demands of the day. The lab, having collected significant data, works on another model.

2013 - MIT experiments with Plasmon based transistors, the lucrative microprocessor industry is unwilling to take a risk on unconventional CPU's and instead focus on the next generation of multicore microprocessors.

2015 - Maritime piracy in East Africa is eradicated with a combined international military endeavor exceeding the limits of NATO restrictions.

2017 - The Peoples' Republic of China's Space Program land a spacecraft on the Moon and return it safely to the Earth. The scientific community and space enthusiasts herald the achievement but the government of the USA views it with suspicion

2018 - The President of the USA encourages NASA to improve their manned programs and greatly increases its budget to meet the goal.

2019 - Computer technology reaches a computing limit because of Moore's law, the needs of consumers exceed what manufacturers' capabilities and a slow economic collapse begins. The Federal government of the USA and many other nations begin to issue grants for the next generation of microprocessors, such as plasmon based microchips.

2020-2022 - Widespread riots and chaos ensue as the global economy collapses; NATO is unable to meet the demands for maintaining peace and order, a global peace force is created (the precursor of the United Earth Armed Forces)

2022 - the first human clone is born in secret, he is named Adam.

2024 - the first laser microprocessors and holographic hard drives are developed by Psion technology labs. They prove superior to conventional electronics and are immediately put to use as Federal government servers. The global economy sees a slight improvement as data compression vastly improves overnight.

2025 - Finally recovering from the global depression, NASA returns a spacecraft to the Moon; the program is named Artemis and conducts exploration of the poles, the dark side, and researches possible site for future settlements.

2027 - Japan unleashes a variety of commercial robots intended for home usage. Japan leads the world in robot usage, the rest of the world seems reluctant to purchase models at first.

2029 - The asteroid 99942 Apophis makes a close approach of planet Earth but does not pass under the gravitational keyhole which would cause an impact. Experimental weapons to alter the course of the asteroid are placed in orbit despite the international laws prohibiting space based weapons. This begins a precedence of space based defense weapons which is the precursor of the ATLAS defense grid.

2032 - Power consumption and demands worldwide increase exponentially, threatening a power crisis.

2034 - Psion technology labs develops deep sea ocean current hydroelectric generators but fails to find a company willing to fund further research. Psion labs suffers financially and the deep sea generator technology is overlooked.

2036 - Robots are commonplace in most homes, commercial robots are used in a variety of industries and even retail environments. Robot transports can be seen independently driving goods and in restaurants serving food to customers.

2039 - In an aggressive business merger Psion technology labs is purchased by OmniCorp, which receives contracts from European Union and East Asian nations to construct improved models of the deep sea generators.

2043-2044 - NASA, the European space Union, and an international collaborative effort of over a dozen nations coordinate a manned mission to Mars. Using the Moon as a base, the spaceship Ares is built in orbit and leaves Earth using a Hohmann type transfer on December 15th, 2043. It arrives at Mars on August 30th 2044. The international crew land on the Elysian plains; they analyze the soil, search for water, and search for future settlement sites. OmniCorp wins the contract to construct the Ares and becomes a household name.

2048 - Many professions once requiring highly skilled and technical labor are replaced with the latest generation of robots, leading to a minor economic crisis and a general backlash against robotics from disgruntled workers.

2051 - The European Union develops a fusion reactor that can yield vast energies in industrial conditions.

2055 - Civilian contractors, using the Moon as a base, begin to use space as a commercial enterprise. Tourists are routinely flown into low Earth orbit using aerospace shuttles, the trans-continental express shuttle can make flights from Dulles international airport to Tokyo in under two hours. Construction of massive space stations both in orbit, and at the La Grange points between the Earth and the Moon are contracted. Civilian engineers and specialists are forced to take spaceflight lessons as the first space civilian architects are born.

2057 - using resources harvested from lunar ore the first viable commercial fusion reactors are built in Europe and Asia. OmniCorp suffers financially from the trends in energy usage and diversifies to the weapons industry, seeking out government bids.

2059 - The first cycler type space stations are completed and begin to safely and reliably transfer construction and mining teams from high Earth orbit to the Moon, threatening the rival business of rocket bus taxis.

2064 - The first generation of viable quantum computers are used in a variety of applications, such as aerospace, military, and government. Commercial variants soon become available, replacing the molecular computers.

2069 - The first five space arks are sent out to seed the galaxy. They are sent to Alpha Centauri, Epsilon Eridani, Sirius, 61 Cygni, and Procyon. In time three other arks are sent; to Epsilon Indi, Tau Ceti, and Sigma Draconis before the international budget begins to buckle under the weight of the exorbitant costs of the program.

2112 - the first interstellar war begins between Earth and the colonial resistance, lead by the Delta Pavonis star system. The resistance's strategy of prolonging the conflict in the hopes of making war seem prohibitive fails. Earth develops counters to the logistics of long distance and long term warfare by developing the first independent tactical robots, the lasted generations of suspended animation technology, and powerful interstellar fusion (torch) drives.

2173 - a formal cease fire is achieved between Sol and the colonial resistance forces lead by the Delta Pavonans.

2221 - The Martian Chancellor resorts to atrocities to deal with the guerilla insurgents, causing a bitter resentment and backlash against him by the Martian people

2223 - After several years of bloody fighting the Chancellor and his entire cabinet are killed in a swift military coup. The Head of Martian military, a charismatic leader, promises to restore peace and order.

2225 - Mars begins to militarize and promptly cuts off ties with Earth and the Sol Alliance. They build up their fleets and ground forces while conducting constant surveillance of other worlds, war games exercises, and disinformation.

2229 - A second interstellar begins, between the Galactic Commonwealth and the Galactic Consortium lead by the Delta Pavonis system. The war is conducted much faster than the first because of wormhole generator technology. Private contractors who independently made their own generators become wealthy war profiteers from the fighting.

2230 - A reluctant and bitter cease fire is arranged between the Commonwealth and the Consortium, the second interstellar war ends.

2232 - Concerned with heightened tensions with Mars, as well as a long standing mistrust between some of the other colonies, Sol forms the Galactic Commonwealth of worlds. Long time allies such as the Alpha Centauri and Sirian systems eagerly join while more remote and cautious colonies agree to the terms of the Commonwealth status (semi-autonomy, common defense, the right to elect their own leaders, no binding laws or regulations) but prefer to remain as neutral, independent parties. Some colonies openly express resentment for Sol and their desire to seriously undermine its power or cripple its fleets, such as the rival Delta Pavonis star system.

2242 - The galaxy is enjoying a period of uninterrupted peace, a pax galactica. The United Earth Aerospace Fleet is stronger than ever, and charged with the duty of maintaining peace and order in the galaxy, however long that may be.

 

Well I think it calls for Mort to do something so Mort.
