Best run of SWG in a long time.

[Glacial]

I've been stead-fastly waiting a long time for yesterday.

I was working on a paper, while standing in the starport (of course) and got a msg from the Kessel system. It confused me terribly, so I took off to track the source. As I dropped into Dath, I sent a question to Kirt about how to get to Kessel and I get a hurried - GET HERE NOW type response. The ensuing combat was the thing I've dreamed of in gaming since 1991 or so. Congrats to Kirt, and I think I like this ElClembo and his crew.

I'll save most of the snapshot memories, but I had alot of them. Trying desperately to pull Dwilah's Y-wing out of a nasty field-of-fire; actually doing a move with Ekade that I'd read in the SW lore (and it even WORKED!), and I missed the BIG BOOM because I made it out so close to the wire that my eject light kept me warm all the way back to the Tatoo system. Finally I topped off the evening with my first trip to Club Midnight - where I met E-bo for the first time and realized we were in that fireball together.

Sorry. I had to vent that excitement or I was gonna pop. Thanks all - I had a great time. I hope my contribution was worth all the excess comm chatter.

My only regret is that some of you are OOC in space so we can't kick back and relive the glory at the cantina. The rest of you may have to get me drunk to shut me up, but please don't stop inviting me if you need cover (mostly on weekends).

P.S. If I'm gonna post this long, I should probably make the effort to go IC, eh?

Yeah, it was fun. I am still looking for an IC reason for Ekade to be a pilot. I guess I am selling out in that sometimes life is easier OOC. Think about it.. I probably would not be helping Kirt IC. He tried to kidnap me once, and is generally a slimeball around me (and everyone else) IC.

You bring up a great point.. it would be nice to have some IC banter in the cantina afterwards. This could even potentially suck in other roleplayers as they overhear the telling of our spaceborne heroics.

Heck, maybe I just remain as "Purple-2" for the cantina banter segment.

Oh.. and keep the com chatter up!! I love it. Even if I say "Cut the chatter Bothan-2", don't. I find myself talking in pilot mode up there. You won't here me say "The Priestess is here to care for all the Goddess' children." You will hear, "Purple-2 standing by."

I will never get tired of hearing "Stay on Target".

I am glad your enthusiasm level is high. In that regard you are not flying solo.

You could have just been up there to cover Dwilah's behind. But I can see how it would be difficult. I'm just happy that it meshes very well with my toon. I did enjoy your chatter too. Not to mention the YT-1300 commander yelling over the comm for engine fires and stuff. I still have a stupid grin on my face, and I'm doing research for a general ed class.

Thanks for the encouragement (everyone else can blame you when the groupchat gets scrolling /grin /wink).

wow, next time I am gonna have to do a chatlog. only thing I ever heard was:

ElClembo: GET THOSE FIGHTERS!

And:

Ekade: Heading in for repairs

And:

Kirt: 4k from the Deep Space Station
