I'd have loved the explorer option (£70), but had to settle for the bog-standard £20 level.

Do it the traditional way, and work your way up the ladder - slow but sure!As it happens, it would devalue the eventual attainment of Elite rank to a certain extent - hey-ho! But that explorer option - it's right up my street!

A new Kickstarter for a writers' pack - a pen & paper RPG. You know that is one of the most original ideas yet for the game. :cool: Also this bit of news from Fridays update. There will be a poll to select the short list of concept prints in the Private Backers forum as from Monday February 4th, this poll will last for a week. In the following week you will be able to pick from the selected shortlist. Been thinking about getting of of the concept prints, although I think they should have held the poll in the general forum rather than the PBF one.

Look who I bumped into on the Frontier Forum! He had to surface sooner or later, and I thought mention of the cufflinks might do it.

Don't know about the DD forum but your not missing much in the PB forum, seems to just a repeat of threads from the general forum. Although having said that they are taking questions for a video Q&A.

Oh well... someone else must have grabbed my first choice commander name.I was kinda expecting that to happen - but they'd better be worthy of that distinguished name!

Same here didn't go through so I just added SSC to the end of it, see if that one works. Can't say that I an too bothered about it as I don't intend to play the multiplayer game much.

Any tenuous thoughts I might have had about trying multi-player have swiftly evaporated after reading that forum for the last month.

Have too admit that I've not been keeping up with what has been going on in the E:D forum, tend to post in the off topic or Elite forum.

Ha... your place or mine? We may well have a closed group of select Oolite explorers at some stage. But that will take some organisation, seeing as how we'd all be starting in different circumstances/systems. Tell me this... what the hell is a basic Sidewinder going to be like in this new universe, eh? It's going to be a long wait to find that out, ain't it?

Well, although Sidewinders (according to canon) shouldn't have Jumpdrives, they did have them in Frontier and FFE, so I hope the system specs are similar to those games

Jumpdrive, scoops for skimming... my second-choice commander name... who knows!Ah well... it's a long way off, anyway! We'll probably have Oolite 1.78 by then... I'm looking forward to that.
