aahhh crap, all the best excuses are taken already! :x

I've been absent for ages because I was working on writing MMOOolite, but then fell into witchspace of despair when I realized that I'd actually coded a Space Cow simulator instead of a multi-player version of Oolite. I ended up cutting off my right ear and couldn't hear myself scream, although maybe that's because I was in Space. :?

Perhaps I'm just terminally insane. (4 years wandering galaxy 3 looking for the Constrictor will do that to a person) :P

I think I'm going to write MMOO2: Return of the Space Cow...

Please Note: No actual cows were harmed during the writing of this post.

Maybe because the Constrictor doesn't go to G3? :wink: :lol:

Maybe you could start a Kickstarter Campaign to found your £4500 pledge. 8)
Thanks to Gimi, I got an eBook in my inbox tonight (31st May 2014 - Release of Elite Reclamation)!

I think I was overcome with emotion yesterday, so happy to still see a thriving community after all this time. Is Giles lost in Space though? :cry:
