Oolite Bulletins

According to Larry Niven, that would be Beowulf Shaever, iirc.

Uhhhmmmmm, Oopsie? :( :( :( :( :( I'm afraid I trashed Cody's Machine. It was a Gecko (red not green) and I let it fire the first volley, truely I did. And it said that i would be in trouble if I wasted his time. So I didn't. It wasn't much of a fight so I am certain that Cody wasn't piloting it him...

Anymore hints, phkb? It's not triggering my memories yet.

Hi phkb. I updated the system and finally was able to check it out. The emailed amount of bounty for a pirate cove is showing correctly now. Sorry that it took so long, Yesterday I managed to come across a pirate cove but when I attacked a fugitive which came out of the cove, it fled after a few sec...

Close enough, Cody! Officially they are Arkoniden (German plural form) who met Pherry Rhodan and Reginald Bull on the moon. Amazing, considering that that story started on the 8th of September 1961 !!!!!! (Yes! 55 years ago!) And they have brought out a new story every week since then and they are s...

Hi phkb, I can confirm that the hiding of the HUD is not happening anymore, so good one!!! However, I think there is a little glitch still, linked with Pirate Cove. When I destroy a pirate cove, the screen tells me that I received a 100 Cr bounty, which is consistent with the credits in my account b...

I feel your pain, Smivs.

As for derailing, I would be happy to ask a moderator to place this in the culinary section of the bbs, but alas ...........



ANYWAYZZZ

The meeting of the four took place at the start of a German science fiction series.

<sniggers> Anchovies and peanut butter are fine - but coffee syrup? What he said. I have a regular night in with some ex-university buddies where careers, politics and the state of the world/education/whatever was discussed whilst slurping some alcoholic beverages. After a couple of bottles of Glen...

You sure it's not Suzy's sizzlin' ? Fried electronics? smells like a short circuit to me. :twisted: :P Naah, definitely a fishy smell. Don't know what you're smelling over there but it obviously ain't what I'm smelling here. Besides, doesn't every ship smell of fried electronics with a dash of acri...

<Sniff><Sniff> Hmm, some strange smell is emanating from my computer. Rxke, how fresh was that fish that you gave to Disembodied? Anywayzzzz, there is no smell that strong that it will beat a peg on the nose, so here goes ....... Thora and Crest meet two American astronauts on the moon as they were ...

OOOOOHHHHHH! That one I DO know. Them be the Taurans! Or was it Tauruns? Hmmm, I'll stick with the first one. I remember this because this was the first science fiction board game that I got, back in the eighties! The game was based on the Forever War. The boardgame was rather naff, iirc, but the st...

Welcome to the Ooniverse, Xendaka!

Great to have another writer join us!

I hope beta is the second or my question was wrong :? Relax, Rxke. You're covered, either way. :wink: :wink: Since the word alphabet comes from the contraction of Alpha and Beta, even if Beta wasn't the second letter in the Greek alphabet (which it is), it would still be the second Greek letter in ...

COREECTOMUNDO!!!

'Fraid not, but you're thinking in the right direction.
