Hello from another new player

Post by skoondi »

Thought it would be polite to say hi before heading off to ask Getafix questions :)

Have been lurking for longer than my profile shows as I had some difficulty registering. Thanks for the stories Drew, I enjoyed them both, just finished Mutabilis last night.

I never played the original Elite but I'm enjoying playing Oolite, the community and the game are both great.

Hi, skoondi, and let me be the first to welcome you to the boards, and of course to this great game! :D

Oh, and have a nice chat with Getafix. And if you have questions or remarks to anybody else, feel free! We are known to be quite friendly here. :wink:

Aww.. man.. I was hoping for at least one more story before I die.. :( :lol:
Most games have some sort of paddling-pool-and-water-wings beginning to ease you in: Oolite takes the rather more Darwinian approach of heaving you straight into the ocean, often with a brick or two in your pockets for luck. ~ Disembodied
