  2. You know it's funny, you mention the Star Patrol Chronicles I pitched the idea at the rest of the group a few months ago and got luke warm responses. Perhaps I'll get Cende's help after the end of PaD and tie her down and we can get a collaboration together.
  3. Off Topic, I just happened to see this thread.

    What Makes Evil!

    I assure you that I writing slowly, it's just that life has blown up in my face and I don't have a lot of time on my hands anymore.

    I actually have a professional editor going over my stuff, not that I pay her anything. and a couple of very good creative people to bounce stuff off.

    That I wanted to bring this to the first page so I can see how many views I actually have.


    [EDIT]Wow 894 views, discounting the 800 or so that are mine, that's about 50 more then I thought.

    Once again I assure you I am writing but in the mean time please enjoy. Prophecy and Dreams and The Course of Superhero Romance
  7. In my Psych class they said after 70 or so hours of being awake the human mind begins to develop psychosis.

    get some sleep.
  8. UPDATE:

    Problem solved, mental note do not let a certain person change settings for the location of my temp folder without complete documentation.
  9. So I go to start the NCsoft launcher and I get this.



    I hit retry and I it does the same thing.

    so I hit skip.

    It starts but all the dots by the "live" Test and Beta Servers are red, so I try to make them update and I get this error.

    Code:
    Unable to contact game patch server.
    
    Please check your internet connection or try again later.
    
    If you want to skip the update step, force a launch using the right-click menu on the game list or main button.
    
    
    
    Error Code: 36 (PatchServerCommunicationError):

    and if I hit "View log" I get this.

    Is anyone else having this problem?
  10. My shames.


    Babylon 5 - just never got into it. seen a few episodes but wasn't one I HAD TO WATCH.

    Used to watch the old Doctor Who on PBS as a kid, but don't remember much of it. Was totally stoked for the new version, just kinda stopped watching it and haven't kept up on it.

    On that subject, I have been working very closely with Cende, Bloodspeaker and by association Michelle ( Dark_Respite) on refining and moving my story forward. (shameless plug warning) found here, and (spoiler alert) the main character in that story Lylith/Helena is by and large an alternate version of my Star Patrol character Agent Collins, whom has has a couple of cameos in both TCoSR and Prophecy and Dreams. Anyway, in game Lylith was transferred to Justice and has begun to interact with both members of the Star Patrol and Nova Dominion and when I get off my lazy butt and start writing again will run concurrent with both Cende's and Michelle's stories mostly focusing on what is happening on the Isles.

    Also Prophecy and Dreams found HERE has had a couple of glimpses of some interactions of a couple villains.
  12. Album 2 top row third picture, That's my friend Cambell from the Adrian Empire. If anybody has a picture of the Knight in green with a giant fish on his back let me know.

    I did make it out to the floor a couple times with the helmet on.

    in a semi-related note I posted the pics I took from comic-com

    HERE
  13. all I can say is Avatea is really really tall.
  14. For those of you going to Comic Con, look for the Adrian Empire doing Live Steel, UNCHOREOGRAPHED medieval weapon fighting demonstrations, I'll be the one in mostly green kicking butt and taking names. Yes I'll be available for autographs after.
  15. So I got my hands on a pass to the con. Has anyone heard more info on the M&G.

    it's more than just one class, it's going to be a degree with a about dozen or so art classes, and general education go with it.

    New Scooter Art

    So you may or may not have noticed a lack of new art from me. well that's because I've started a sequential and comic art degree program. Get some formal training and maybe become a real professional. I'll be posting on my dA account some of the better pieces along the way. but I thought I would give a small taste of what I've done over the last five weeks.
  18. What?! No update last night. For shame...


    when you look at me like that I was kidding.
  19. I suppose I should get off my lazy butt and write. I have some handwavium to put down too. I know where I want go but I am not sure how to get there.
  20. Like I said, "CLANG CLANG" I'd say that was the sound of brass, but I would have to go with something harder; steel, adamantium, titanium, impervium?
  21. GAH!

    I have early access to the story, and I stopped reading at this point cause I didn't want to spoil it.

    So I'm not sure what happens with Sharpe. Of the Commanders of the Star Patrol, Sharpe is possibly my favorite, mostly because he's the one spends most of time in the field. (actual play time)

    I would have to look it up, but it is either Sharpe or Bowman that tells Statesman "How it is" and in my head all I hear is clang clang. I looked for it in TCOSR but couldn't find it and now I have to go to class.

    Egads, page 4. Rise Thread!!! RISE!!!

    Just wanted to announce that I picked up a brand new set of Prismacolor Markers and Colored pencils today. Also I had the first class of a 5 week Drawing class maybe a shore up the pencil skills and start getting some really kick butt line art done.

    Also Thank you very much for the kind words Power.

    That is all.
