Not at all. I thought I posted a brief reply last night, but my Internet was acting up a bit, so I guess it didn't take. To repeat it:

Excellent story JT. I especially enjoied the attack sequance. I must admit that it is looking quite grim for our hero... um, villain... ur, antagonist... but thanks for at least leaving the body unfound. I’ll have to think on my next reply.

Sorry the metaverse scoring system has taken a dislike to you. I hope Stardock can figure out what is going on and help.

Nice story, Qwerk! I also enjoyed the attack sequence. I can't wait to see how this all turns out. Unfortunately, It'll be sometime after the weekend before I do. (I'm going to an anime' convention with some friends.)

On the fringe of the Mutara Nebula, a Ferengi Free Trader picks through the wreckage several Klingon vessels. Following the trail to the edge of the nebula, it happens apon three stasis canisters, badly plasma burned, but still intact. The Feregi attach tractors to them and bring them aboard.

In the cargo bay, they debate the profit in opening them up virsus selling them as scrap. Greed, as always with Ferengi, prevales, and they open the canisters.

"How long?" a man whispers from the first canister.

"It is 2278" the Captain replies.

Genghis Hank grins...

don't worry it wouldn't kill me.. i'm the star of the show..
only redshirts get it.. and only those without a second name and that appear only once or up to 3 times.. after that they are safe...

just read the scripts...

Hi, J.T.Qwerk, i want to sign up. I've got few points only but they will increase - i can guarantee.
Will you promote me to the crew of the Enterpwize if i join? Is further promotion avaiable to Medical Chief?
The only problem with me is i can check the forum and upload my scores only on Friday. I hope it's OK. See you on board!

                
#465  by Diplomat Blue_Steel - 5/28/2004 11:35:55 AM

Welcome Aboard Andrew..
ok.. which Doc do ya wanabe??

the EMH from voyager, Mc Coy, or any others you like... just think of a funny twist to the name.. eg: Qwerk = kirk..
and i'll put you on the crew roster

First come first serve with the choice of charactors.. ie: there can be only one player based on any single character from ANY of the ST series/movies

post msgs or games when ever you feel like it... the idea is to have fun..

Just ask if you need help.. there are lots of great players who read and post in the starfleet thread.. (even though they arn't part of this empire )and I dare say that most are willing to help.. I know I am..

See you round the ship


                          
#466  by Citizen Andrew Azzameen - 5/28/2004 11:48:25 AM

I don't know which caracter to choose, i'm Hungarian and here Star Trek is rarely seen in the TV. But i played with some ST games (mostly Armada 2). Is it OK if i choose Marduk? Or there can't be Klingons on board? Funny twist... It's hard to find one for Andrew Azzameen. This name is from X-wing Alliance.

Hey Qwerk! That would be great! He could rescue the rest of your crew that I left with the Klingons!

Qwerk and I have been having a "story" going in this thread about me "abducting" his crew. Just for fun. Nothing for you to be worried about, unless you wanted to play along.

Congrats on joining Star Fleet!

                          
#471  by Citizen Moser_Alchemist - 5/28/2004 2:02:19 PM

Hey Qwerk! Looks like things are looking up for Star Fleet! I'm so glad, because the more vital empires the better. Welcome Andrew to the greater metaverse community!

GMN: (The Inter Galactic Metaverse News)

The news of Newly promoted Admiral J.T,Qwerk's Victory at the battle of Mutara Nebula news of which has spread like hot gossip throughout the Metaverse.. I even here that there were wagers made as to the outcome.. however little is known about the winners of the wager.. but one thing you can be sure of is that the Ferrengi made a lot of profit as the organisers of the wager. ....


Qwerk {Thinking} sits himself down in the captians chair of the Enterpwise and switchs off the news communique .. feeling down and sullen .. Some victory... Still havn't found my crew.. at least Gingus is dead..

Qwerk: "Computer.. Status report"

Compuser: all systems are functioning with in normal opperating specifications

Compuser: "Klingon Ship Katana just entered scanner range"

Qwerk: "Good.. Good... Have they noticed is yet"

Compuser: "............"

Qwerk: "EMH to the bridge"

the EMH appears to the left of Qwerk..

EMH: "please state the nature of the medical emergancy"

the EMH looks sround and says "Oh its you!!! what do you want me to do now.. Clean your boots, or maybe polish your new rank insignia"

Qwerk: "There is no need to get your knickers in a knot... you know that Starfleet doesn't promote EMH's.. its not my fault.. I did place the recommentation that you could be promoted to Temporary first officer.. as it makes sence as you and I are all that are onboard"

EMH: "Thats not it.. I'm programmed to be a doctor nothing else.. and here you get me to do things that are beneath my programming"

Qwerk: {thinking to himself} great.. a hologram with an imnferiority complex..

Qwerk: "Ok.. as of this moment I by the power invested in me I can't promote you but i can give you a new designation.

Compuser.. as of this moment the EMH shall have the designation on "Holographic Emergengy Master" HEM for Short"

EMH: {Smiling} "hmmm... has a nice ring to it.. HEM... I like it.. and it'll allow me to officially incorporate other duties into my subroutine"

Compuser: "Entered into the records"

Compuser: {Voice Changing slowly as speaking to a more human like voice}

Qwerk: "What the.... Whats going on Compuser"
Compuser: "HEM has just changed my vocal output to make me sound more pleasing to the ears"
Qwerk: "Thats not all thats changed.. your no longer talking like a computer.. .. i mean that your sentances are better formed"
Compuser: "Must be the nanobots which you have had repairing the ship"

Just then the turbo lift's doors opens and a woman works outht

Qwerk: {pulling phaser out of holster and pointing it at the new person.. a woman dressed in a starfleet uniform} Who are you???

woman: I'm Compuser.. I've been generated by the nanobots to aid them in their repairs

Qwerk: arghhhh.... am I loosing control of my ship..... I never gave orders to do that...

Woman: "non the less i am here .. what are your orders captian"

Qwerk: "ummm... I cane call you Compuser or woman... let me think"

Qwerk: "got it.. how does "Computer User Tempral Entity" sound {CUTE for short}

CUTE: "Captian the klingons seem oblivous to our presence"

Qwerk: "Is the contents of Cargo bay 2 ready"

Compuser: "Yes.. Cargo bay is full"

Qwerk: "Good.. {at least i still seem to be in control.. But i'm feeling a little uncomfortable being the only sentient real being on board} Let me know when we are with tactical range ....

Compuser: "I have an incomming cominication from the klingon vessel"

Klingon: "Ahhhh... the informas capt'n Querk.... it'll be a glorous victory for the klingons this day..."

Qwerk: "Don't be so sure...Where is my Crew..."

Klingon: "I don't know what your on about... you mean that you've lost your Crew... {laughs a horty klingon laugh} the great Capt'n Qwerk has lost his crew"

Qwerk: "I know you have them... i'll give you 60 secs to return them"

Klingon:"I've told you... I know nothing of your missing crew.. and for your aqusation you must pay..."

Compuser: "Klingon Vessal is changing course to intercept us.."

Qwerk: "Time is up.. you loose"

Qwerk: "CUTE... lock and engage transporter"

CUTE: "Transporter activated Captian... "

Klingon: "What's this... you think that your going to win by filling my ship with balls of fluff.. " Klingon starts Laughing:

just then the klingon ship starts flying irraticly

Klingon: "ARGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! get them off me... Get them offf!!!!!!"




Qwerk: "Give me back my crew ... and i'll transport the TRIBBLES back off your ship"

HEM: "Captian.. I've just scanned their ship.. there are no human life signs on board.. I don't understand.... where are they"

Qwerk looks at the EMH.. iummm.. sorry HEM looking puzzled..... then with a deathly shock.. he turns snow white.. and slumps out of his chair...

Qwerk: "What have i done!!! I believed Gingas... that the klingons had my crew... .. no... noo... {getting louder the more times he says it} noooo!!!!!!"

CUTE and HEM look at the capt'n and can't work out whats happening.....

HEM rushes over to the Qwerk... Whats wrong.. are you being attacked by a new weapon.. that doesn't show on our scanners....

Qwerk": I've... but how... arghhhh...... GENGAS!!!!!!!!! "

Qwerks face is now a bright red.. and he looks like he's gone insane.. HEM can sence trhat all of Qwerks emotions are on overload..
Anger,Hate,Sorrow,guilt,remorse,rage....
What could this new weapon be...

CUTE: capt'd no human life signs.. however there is an undetermaned life sign in the klingons brig...

The klingons ship is now out of control and heading straight for a nearby planet in a spin...

CUTE: "shall I activate the transporters to transport their prisner to the Enterpwise"

Qwerk : {starting to sob...} "What have i done.. I've killed them.. killed them all..."

CUTE: "Capt'n... what should i do"

HEM: do it... transport them directly to our brig...

Qwerk: regaining his composure... "Set course for the Mutara Nebula" as fast as we can....

Compuser: "Course laid in.. and engaged"

As the Enterpwise jumpsd to warp.. the klingon ship still broardcasting crashes into the gas Giant planet.. crushing the ship and all onboard including those lovable (unless your a klingon.. ) TRIBBLES

CUTE: "Capt'n it was a klingon that We saved from their brig... He seems to be asleep..."

Qwerk: "HEM get down there and prepair him for interigation... I want to know why he was their prisoner..."

HEM heads off to the brig to greet.. umm.. interigate the prisoner..

Qwerk: Starlog entry starsate 2172 (yes prior to gingas being found.. It'll take me some time to get back there.. i won't arive back at the nebula untill AFTER he has been rescued... along with ANY of my crew which also may have survived the same way... if any have.) What have i done... I believed Gingas.. I was stupid.. and its cost me the lives of my crew..... I've never had to face this.. I've always found a way around it... I've never had to face death of friends at my own hand.. well It may as well be recorded that I killed my crew... sobbing... why didn't i see Gingas for what I know him to be a brilliant tactiotion and lier .... my nemisus.... he even got me to kill klingons that had nothing to do with the disaperance of my crew... all they did wrong was to be in the wrong place at the wrong time... Gingas seems to have won all round before he died.. he made sure that I lost.. and so did the klingons who bet against him in the battle... absolutly brilliant tactics.. and pulled off without a flaw... except one... he's not around to see it..
I'm currently on my way back to the nebula to search for the remains of my crew ... We bwere able to save one Klingon prior to their ships demise.. I'll interigate him to see why he was their prisoner...

endlog Starlog:

{There you go Andrew Azzameen you are now written into the story if you like you can write a post about your interigation and how you came to be in the brig of the klingons ship.. and yes you are a klingon... make it a good story.. and include Qwerk: ,HEM: ,CUTE: and GIUNGUS in your story.. to join it to the ongoing story..

I hear you ask.. what story... read this thread from the start... the story is made up from snippets throughout the thread..

As for the rest of my crew.. you are all listed as MIA ... You may be dropped from the empire.. but you may join up again and write up how you were found , survived , hid , etc...

I really want StarFleet to be an Active empire.. either posting games or msgs or imputting to the empire in other ways..

As to everyone... this is really fun.. and yes you are pushing my imagination to extreams as to writting in new characters for the crew as they arriver and trying to keep non active members alive in the thread.. this is how a msgds thread should be in the empire section.. Great reading for all and hopefully participitation.. any and all are invited to participate in the stories in this thread..

Thanks for all your support
J.T.Qwerk

Great story JT!

I hope to have my next installment over the weekend. Genghis has to find a way for the Ferengi to "profit" from his rescue...
