    Chapter XIII - Homeward

    Well sometimes it pays to employ the K.I.S.S. principle...especially if you're half-asleep.

    Recall - First Contact

    Then it's time to turn about. *shrug* Well they looked squidlike to me. Anybody else care to comment on the origin of Steltek...or am I left to my own devices on this one?

    Recall - First Contact

    klaus: Only when I have to. Quarto: Ever hear the expression, "Too many cooks spoil the broth?" The ship is there to help the pilot, not fly for him...though survival could be a directive. A glitch. Well actually an interpretation. Remember humans can't receive Sthrisk's singals...as of...

    Chapter XIII - Homeward

    5. One unwashed patient more is one more possible infected ward, that's the difference. I agree the comment was a good idea but this is a hospital for goodness sakes. It would have been a completely different matter if they had just dumped him in a bunk to sleep it off.

    Recall - First Contact

    Well I'm glad the originality aspect was well received thus far. I just want to push the boundary of intuitive piloting a bit. I'm pretty sure most pilots feel at one with their machines. Imagine what a blend of mechanics and organics could do to the way humans pilot their vehicles? Though I...

    Recall - First Contact

    Quarto: Yer right laddie. T'aint up to date yet, but it's only missing this chapter which I'll probably add tommorrow. Vondoom: You can see what I've written so far of Privateer: Recall here http://home.elka.pw.edu.pl/~mkorzen1/wc/Recall.html And I'd appreciate you pointing out those...

    Which makes me wonder how many people using the chat zone can read. *flee*

    Chapter XIII - Homeward

    5. Yes well nurses do have certain...um...duties. 10. But then you have an overfondness of elipsis. 12. Nor any manners. 18. Alright, I'm going already. 19. There were quite a few more. I only pointed out this particular one and 21 because the others weren't as incorrect as those. 23...

    Um, is this really the right CIC chat zone to be discussing this?

    Recall - First Contact

    It's been a long time coming but I hope I can develop the ideas contained below in some interesting ways. 2681.039.0526 - First Contact James yawned profusely. He hadn't slept all too well. The excitement had kept him tossing and turning in his bunk for hours. When he finally drifted off, a...

    Ah so you've finally show up again. Yes as a matter of fact I'm posting First Contact just now. The comments on comments you will have to wait for.

    Chapter XIII - Homeward

    Well it's been a while, but here are my comments - finally. <OL TYPE=1> <LI>&gt;XIII. Homeward.&lt; - Odd sort of title I must say since I'm quite sure Weaver knows just where home is...yet. <LI>&gt;With friends like this, he would always be safe!&lt; - Only his friends can't land for him...

    Chapter XII - Solo

    2. Actually in that particular case I preferred gravity-less - and I wouldn't trust word too much since it suggested gravitity. 4. I remember that perfectly well but I dinna have a reference feline on paw before. 8. It just seemed like one of those gray areas that needed filling and you did...

    Chapter XII - Solo

    Aw keep yer shirt on. I did pick the nits in the end didn't I? 2. &gt;He approached the door slowly, sticking his hands out so as not to smash headlong into it in this gravity-less environment.&lt; - Lesee here now. How about, "He aproached slowly, stretching his hands out so as not to smash...

    Chapter XII - Solo

    <OL TYPE=1> <LI>&gt;sticking his hands out&lt; - How about stretching instead? <LI>&gt;into it in this&lt; - Consider rewording somehow. <LI>&gt;He frowned, feeling strange, jagged holes beneath his fingers.&lt; - Sounds like he felt strange and not the jagged holes were strange. <LI>&gt;three...

    Chapter XI - Things Fall Apart

    You mean I'd do a better job than you? I seriously doubt that. Even though you don't have the spirit of a merchant/rogue, you know much more about Privateer than I do. But you guys have given me an idea...of course I really should finish Recall first. Yes. As in, "I yield." 2. It's...

    No Regret: Suggesting that beating someone unconscious is fun is not normal behaviour in my book. And I did wonder about the very vague similarity to the intro scene of WC4.

    For fun :-)

    Fair enough - though I seriously doubt you could improve on, "Marshal decked her," "Maniack kicked the woman in the stumack as she lay unconsios on the floor for good measure," and, "they gave the now lifeless body on the floor a few more swift kicks for fun."

    Chapter XI - Things Fall Apart

    Touché. 1. Oh never mind, it was just Polish character encoding that made the a look like an r. Um, is there meant to be an accent over the a? 2. There getting worse than a plague of lemmings you know? 5. Well I know I wouldn't feel safe until I actually landed. 6. 11. Well it's the...

    Poorly written and in bad taste - and not in the least bit amusing. I'm glad I only scanned through it.
