Renegade, have you checked the thread in the Senate Halls about an alternate metaverse? I haven't seen your contribution on the subject.

I did, I like the idea. I will comment on it when I see it at work to see what can be improve if anything needs improvement, the outline is real good.

Its my ship my treasure

Wind in the stern

but it flies above the water
my glider named Skull of the Seas!!!!

Pirate ship named by its bravery
"El Temido" (the feared one)
its known in the whole sea
from one corner to the other.
Its my ship my treasure
its my god the liberty
my laws are the strength and the wind
my only motherland is the sea

A small post would surely be appreciate since I have currently the impression that only Alex, Damoose and me are interested in the alternate metaverse, since we are the only that are speaking. Even a simple post with "good for me" or something like that will be appreciate.
It is useful to know what other people are feeling.

This is the original in Spanish, real a pirate song
CANCIÓN DEL PIRATA
Con diez cañones por banda,
viento en popa a toda vela,
no corta el mar, sino vuela
un velero bergantín;
bajel pirata que llaman,
por su bravura, el Temido,
en todo mar conocido
del uno al otro confín.
La luna en el mar riela,
en la lona gime el viento
y alza en blando movimiento
olas de plata y azul;
y va el capitán pirata,
cantando alegre en la popa,
Asia a un lado, al otro Europa,
y allá a su frente Estambul;
—«Navega velero mío,
sin temor,
que ni enemigo navío,
ni tormenta, ni bonanza,
tu rumbo a torcer alcanza,
ni a sujetar tu valor.
»Veinte presas
hemos hecho
a despecho,
del inglés,
»y han rendido
sus pendones
cien naciones
a mis pies.
»Que es mi barco mi tesoro,
que es mi dios la libertad,
mi ley, la fuerza y el viento,
mi única patria la mar.
»Allá muevan feroz guerra
ciegos reyes
por un palmo más de tierra,
que yo tengo aquí por mío
cuanto abarca el mar bravío,
a quien nadie impuso leyes.
»Y no hay playa
sea cualquiera,
ni bandera
de esplendor,
»que no sienta
mi derecho
y dé pecho
a mi valor.
»Que es mi barco mi tesoro,
que es mi dios la libertad,
mi ley, la fuerza y el viento,
mi única patria la mar.
»A la voz de ¡barco viene!
es de ver
cómo vira y se previene
a todo trapo a escapar:
que yo soy el rey del mar,
y mi furia es de temer.
»En las presas
yo divido
lo cogido
por igual:
»sólo quiero
por riqueza
la belleza
sin rival.
»Que es mi barco mi tesoro,
que es mi dios la libertad,
mi ley, la fuerza y el viento,
mi única patria la mar.
»¡Sentenciado estoy a muerte!;
yo me río;
no me abandone la suerte,
y al mismo que me condena,
colgaré de alguna entena
quizá en su propio navío.
»Y si caigo
¿qué es la vida?
Por perdida
ya la di,
»cuando el yugo
de un esclavo
como un bravo
sacudí.
»Que es mi barco mi tesoro,
que es mi dios la libertad,
mi ley, la fuerza y el viento,
mi única patria la mar.
»Son mi música mejor
aquilones
el estrépito y temblor
de los cables sacudidos,
del negro mar los bramidos
y el rugir de mis cañones.
»Y del trueno
al son violento,
y del viento
al rebramar,
»yo me duermo
sosegado
arrullado
por el mar.
»Que es mi barco mi tesoro,
que es mi dios la libertad,
mi ley, la fuerza y el viento,
mi única patria la mar».
José de Espronceda, 1840

I thought the pirates sailed in the "Good ship Venus"....
| |
|
That is Captain Sparrow ship, don't mess with the captain's ship, the last man that did it is still walking the plank (inside the sharks belly)
| |
|
Our Captains is having fun at the Prancys Ponny Bar, no many people hanging there and plenty of booze!!!
| |
|
The time has come to unveil our secret weapon, the long range booze charged, booze propelled, and all made with Yor parts the VODKYRUM-Alpha.
This is our new secret weapon against the Guardian Empire, this new weapon has already proven effective against Jedis, Undead and other empires. So the new improved version (we changed the Whiskey for a purer form of flammable VODKA as propellent)it is ready for action, we will start the demonstration practices this weekend!!!

Gerakken now juggles three topics at once!:
Hmm, now I am definitely a noob at trying to decipher the MV, but it would appear that Jaws' recalc happened exactly 30 days since his last submission. In other words, if you have 30 inactive days, all your scores drop into the next block and are aged appropriately. |
|
There is more than one set of aging going on and the system changed a bit a few months ago and that is partly what is causing the confusion. In the old days, there was a set aging schedule and it seemed the individiual player record only updated upon a game submission. Now there is some kind of set schedule and a seemingly empire wide update upon game submission. Worse yet, the battle numbers seem to be degrading as well, at least in regards to me and Renegade. I have not looked to see if other records are losing battle numbers as well. For example, my player record has details of 28 games on it, yet I am credited with only 25 battles now because of the system. So the aging not only reduced the score (as it should), but removed the battles from the tally.
Hey how's it going. What happened? when I left we the Kings of the meta but I come back and we are no where near first. |
|
Long time no see! Well, a pirate's life is never easy and we have had our share of bumps and bruises like most other old empires have. But we are still kicking even if not currently at #1. We are just too tough to die and mean enough to fight our way back. The winds of fate gave us what was once a strong hold on #1 due to the core players of what is now the SF, and the wind died down a bit later when they moved on with a couple of extra pirates in tow. But there is always another wind sometime, like the one blowing right now that is carrying us back to where we were. The only constant in the Meta is change.

We had something similar once before. The Doom's engines could burn anything, especially booze. And a staff of Yor repair droids once were on call to fix almost anything. Of course, I admit the parts I used in the old days to repair battle damage came from sometimes dubious sources (including Yor, but even common space junk when juicy ships were not being looted). Ah, it has been a while since I visited my old lab on the Doom. Refer to the old recruiting thread for the backstory on that mayhem at Link

|
Welcome back Darth Bob!!! Many changes indeed!!!!
| |
|
It is time to revive the whole Pirate ship, one of the old ones has returned home. Free booze for all the Pirates!!!!!!
| |
|
Morning update, I just finish a quick 1.20 and the score is not that good only 32k |
|
Well that bites. I do see however that Wild Wombat and his bunch are doing pretty well. When I left they were still a part of G.R.O.S.S. |
|
They've retired for the most part Bob... Welcome back....Your score will likely drop with your first submission but it will go up from there. Break open the booze!!!!

Yeah. Once the doom gained sentience, she kind of took a liking to ya too. She still likes alcohol. Who knew the key to a stable matter/antimatter reactor was beer?
| |
|
Renegade: I think the meta data base is going screwy as to why you dropped off. I've seen that happen before. I couldn't get on meself one day. It called me by name yet it said I wasn't registered..I had to go log in manually again.
We're just a few k out of 4th....And not all that far out of third.
