    I did wonder why @Nera Ay came downstairs laughing earlier today. Also...I'm stealing this. 😝

    Our newest ensign @Jania Nis giving a lesson in psychology that brings joy to both myself and @Avander Promontory

    FINALLY!!!! For once, Toxin gets to be the hero and @Erik Johnson took this moment and ran. We got to see not just the moment that Toxin Arlill stood up for greatness but also the greatness that his friends have seen in him. We also get to see him be assertive and we get a glimpse as to what kind of leader Arlill will become.

    When you're writing the kind of sims that pull from a characters backstory, such as in this case where there is some kind of alien intelligence digging around our brains to pull out our very worst fears, it's easy just to focus on yourself. After all, these fears and anxieties are often private and even the most stoic character can crack. What is not easy to do is pull everyone in to the hallucinations in a way that is a) fun & b) helps us build our own stories, while also developing yours. @Alora DeVeau manages to do just that; she went not just into our wiki pages but also what we have written in the past and picked out that one little detail, that one little weakness, then stuck the knife in and expertly twisted it for maximum pain. This is the kind of pain and ✨️truma ✨️ that we love to write as simmers. In short, Amanda has set not just herself, but also the rest of us, for success and a shining example for the rest of us on how to pull it off

    @Karen Stendhal is wise, we should listen to Stendhal.

    I beg all thine holy pardons, I am not just some random ops chief...I'm a carefully selected M&S Finest Assistant Ops Chief 😂 Una here with the jealousy, hands off he's mine 😂😂😂😂 @Karen Stendhal

    Nilsen: I'm an ops officer, not a doctor 😝 @Toz

    I feel like this every day of the week. Think we can all relate 😅 @Karen Stendhal

    @Morro Caras just coming in with an epic start to act 3 like it's nobody's business. Not only did Vio pick up on the hints that myself and @Erik Johnson had been dropping about the tension in Lhando & Tox's friendship, since the start of the last shore leave; Vio also gave us a great insight into not just Orion culture; how they can offend someone but still be charming enough to do business but also his background growing up as a pirate. Moreoever, He then tied that into what Morro was seeing in Lhando & Tox's behaviour and flipped the tables, setting us two up for what's next. Absolutely amazing work!!!!

    Yinn having me laugh out loud at this. I'm reminded of this song https://open.spotify.com/track/08KTQSs3ickNki7FFTb6fY?si=W4VFY7E7SGGVj80QOoJNXA

    Well there's Jeffrey, he's lovely. His wife Jennifer, their three sons, Jeff, Rey and Steve. @Josh Herrick
  15. Lhandon_Nilsen
    Yay for @Josh Herrick not getting blown up/disfigured/thrown out of an air/thrown through the view screen. The question, can we get Herrick through the rest of this mission without injury?
  16. Lhandon_Nilsen
    IRL I don't blame Una, Lhandon is hot, but he's also just as much of a mess as Una haha This would be an unmitigated disaster.
  17. Lhandon_Nilsen
    @Josh Herrick you're too kind to me, thank you so much for the kind words. 💛 Of course, my gratitude to @Alora DeVeau for taking the time out of her day to help with the flash-forward

    We are beyond lucky to have @Josh Herrick simming on our ship, he shows us all of his reactions and thoughts towards others effortlessly while also dropping some awesome nuggets. @Avander Promontory pointed out this line in our other thread As Avander said Josh "is one of our most underrated writers. His prose is full of fun little nuggets that enhance the reading experience." I want to add that in addition to all of this, he took mine and Tony's ideas and gave an amazing bit of engineering summing, that was both in-depth and logical but also really easy to read and understand as a layperson. This is a whole skill in itself and I don't think people understand how hard that is to do. Here's the full sim:

    In hindsight, perhaps starting my explanation with the line “they could be watching us right now” is probably better than ending my explanation with that line. @Tony, aka Rouiancet exclamation of “Lhandon, lead with that” really punctuated that point.

    Slightly different appreciation today, I love this article from @Samira Neathler and I so wish I thought of this article. Who would have thought the Borg have such a good PR department? I'm convinced to join. https://www.starbase118.net/2024/new-community-recruits-people-from-all-over-the-universe/
  21. Lhandon_Nilsen
    @Josh Herrick You know one day I'm going to monkey paw this lol.
  22. Lhandon_Nilsen
    Are you sure about that Herrick...are you really really sure about that??? @Josh Herrick Your record for getting blown up has a disturbing frequency to it.

    I cannot express how amazing this work is. Every inch of our ship has been recorded and on display for all to see. First, Joel created deck plans, not just for key areas of the ship, but for every single deck. We know where every room is in relation to each other. I can trace a route from the bar to sickbay. Isn't that beyond amazing? https://wiki.starbase118.net/wiki/index.php?title=OEB_Deck_Layout As a visual person, this really helps me to bring my sims alive and make the ship feel more real. Then Erik came along and worked out an entire numbering system for every room and created this awesome tabber which is so fun to use and flick through. I do know Erik wants to make some edits and updates but it's still worth showing off https://wiki.starbase118.net/wiki/index.php?title=OEB_Room_Assignments Then using Joel's deck plan, he made an interactive tool that lets us see exactly what section each room is in. I'm not 100% sure if I can share that link here, so I'll refer to Erik So already, that's weeks' worth of work from them both, But did they finish there? Nope. I want to also highlight that Joel made each of our quarters, in detail, to our specifications. I am beyond in love with these. https://wiki.starbase118.net/wiki/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=upload&user=Jack+Kessler&page=&wpdate=&tagfilter=&subtype=&wpFormIdentifier=logeventslist I was just glad that I got to help out with little things here and there. Erik and Joel have set the bar so darn high, and both IC and OOC. I love these two cool cats, @Erik Johnson @Jack Kessler
