Word count rather than character count?

had a post that broke the former 50k limit easily. When we imported our RP from the backups, we had to stick it in 18 different posts because of the character limits.

Word count wouldn't really benefit us much, but if it benefits some and it is no trouble for you mahz (or for straining the server) why not? someone else might find it useful.

Star Wars: Coruscant Sacked: Aftermath

ah. thats a good enough reason for us.

No problem. Will be good to have it out of the way and approved.

Could those of you with approved characters post them in the character thread?

we hope to be able to put away the backup of the CS thread soon.

Stargate - H.M.S Tempest

we may or may not be around much tomorrow. Gonna travel across the country. Will not have internet on most of that journey.

Star Wars: Coruscant Sacked: Aftermath

that can always be arranged once Vole is finished and approved...

Oh, and aramis/kentsukan... We've added a few comments to your Sith CS.

Star Wars: Coruscant Sacked: Aftermath

This RP is still searching for people who might want to play Jedi. Just because most of the Jedi in this RP are imprisoned, does not mean they cannot do stuff.

If you've wanted to explore the nature of the edges between the light and the dark side of the Force, this is the place for you.

Don't be afraid to join. We don't bite. Much.

Stargate - H.M.S Tempest

quick mistake... quick mistake...

you should drop by the IRC, An Alt.

Star Wars: Coruscant Sacked: Aftermath

Our NPCs are all available for Collabs. None of them are busy. (well, Allende Laval is slightly busy, but not overly so)

Stargate - H.M.S Tempest

The only publicly known space program is the one with space shuttles and such. In other words, one that doesn't have any bearing upon the stargate programs.
The governments are (in collaboration) keeping alien existence and tech as secret as possible. Only a few traces have been released over the years. Some medicine, Reverse-engineered versions of various tech with added flaws, etc.

Tech of levels like energy shields is still utterly secret.

the aiming of weapons on the ships like 304's and so forth is done in a large degree by computers. He might have a knack for figuring out exactly how to predict where targets will go, though. But that probably isn't enough to rate being brought into a stargate program.

Weapons and shields are separate systems. There's probably a few bridge technicians in charge of overseeing shields. Not sure what they fall in under (tac. officer, weapons officer or captain directly), but it doesn't matter all that much. Sep knows though (or will decide)

Signatures?

Its actually a nice feature. it even scales pictures loaded through a PHP script. (we've got 40-something sig images on a random rotator, and it scales every one of them)

Stargate - H.M.S Tempest

Marrow said Name: Ethan Tassar
Rank: First Lieutenant
Role: Weapons and Shields Officer
Unit: Bridge crew
Age: 28
Gender: Male
Reason chosen for Tempest: Excellent aiming and tactical insight skill. 'Space is just the logical next step' - Ethan
Personality: Ethan is a Strict man and puts others before himself, he has a strong sense of justice and responsibility. If he does not agree with something he is not afraid to speak his mind and will always try to convince you to what he thinks is right.

Short Biography: Ethan grew up as a normal boy, going to school, playing football and videogames. When he reached secondary school he became interested in Space, it attracted him more then anything. This strong attraction made him study all possible spaceships from Battlecruisers to Recon and Courier vessels. He studied planets and extra terrestrials Like the Tok'ra and Goa'uld. Learned about their cultures and ways of living. Not less important he learned what kind of weapons, shields and tactics they used in battle. That part interested him in particular and he made a full study of it. When Ethan reached the age of 18 he enrolled in the army as a Tactical Supervisor at the remote artillery unit. Working his way trough the ranks he eventually became head of the Remote Artillery unit and in charge of the R.S.P. (Remote Shield Project). Not long thereafter Ethan became Second in command of the Tactical Support unit, providing cover fire from long range and placing shields by Remote control. Having done this for several years with outstanding results he felt the time has come to take it to the next level. He wanted something new, as this could not be found at earth he took on yet another study and applied for the function of Weapons and Shields Officier at project Tempest, with recommendations of his Commanding Officer.

What's a weapons & Shields officer? Is it just the Weapons Officer field from the Tempest crew hider in OoC post 1?

When did he start studying Tok'ra/Goa'uld and real alien tech? The SG program is still secret, after all. we get the impression that was studied before he joined armed forces? Or is that a misunderstanding from our part?
