Re: Tionisla Orbital Graveyard 2.0

On my trusty Apple Macintosh: just over 90 miles from Tionisla Prime (that is 71,893 Old Venetian Cavezzi or 4765 Byzantine Plethrons : maybe 150 of those foreign French kilometres ) and 500 miles (that is 383,433 Old Venetian Cavezzi or 25,412 Byzantine Plethrons ,: around 800 of those French thing...

Re: I'm new to Oolite

I hope you are enjoying the Oolite experience. I certainly am. Do have lots of experience on other such games - or have you only ever reall...

Re: Tionisla Orbital Graveyard 2.0

Apologies for the delay. I was distracted by the amphibolies and a pair of Phkb's puce pantaloons. According to the literature it is supposedly half way between Tionisla Prime and the Sun. The first 5 pages of the original Tionisla Orbital Graveyard thread settle for 30% of the way towards the sun f...

Re: The First Amphiboly of the Architectonic of Oolite

Sir Milo, it is quite obvious that a gentleman of your exquisite taste and superior breeding must possess at least membership in one of the orders of knighthood if not a baronetcy itself.

Very nice!

Salutations!


Are you, by any chance, doing academic research into Video Gaming?
