I'm in a very creative mood tonight. I might just sit down and try and do one myself. I'll keep you all posted on my success or failure...

whoa. Didnt realize I'd missed so much on the chat! I havent even begun to read it, and may not for a day or two-
Im moving house to on-campus accomodation :)
but yeah, I think I can fit in a post from Dale between boxes of junk (always surprised by how much I have :) ).
Also, linc- sorry for contradicting you, I hadnt seen your 2nd two installments of your triple post, nor the chat, when I did mine. Your right, a parallel double corridor (not V shaped) with a shared centre-space makes alotta sense.
Cool to know we've got some serious Serenity scholars leading this shindig!
:biggrin"

The vague part is easy enough for me to do. Lol

I've gotten used to that feeling from writing in other sci-fi RPGs where the military and technobabble just kinda made my eyes glaze over when I tried to process it.

That's why I figgered the Firefly 'verse was more my kinda place.

Funny. Odd... but pretty funny. You two are doing some good posts.

Niagra Falls? Dude... ok maybe it's from a book? I suppose if they know the Beatles it's not a huge stretch. Just remember this is hundreds of years in the future, in a society that knows little to nothing of Earth, even to the point of considering it a myth. That said I suppose little stuff like that can be explained as the name living on in memory and applied to places in the 'Verse. No worries though, it's not a reality breaker or anything... first person to mention Brittany Spears or something like that gets booted out the airlock, however. :P

Oh, hey... about technobable and such. I understand what you mean Celestia. One of my pet peeves is BS canned technobable. We'll try to avoid that here as much as possible. We just want to create a ship where we all know where and what we are each talking about and be able to picture it as best we can. Firefly is more about the character interactions and dialogue... which brings me back to my comment about remaining vague on location details unless you're sure of them. Focus on dialogue and interactions with shipmates, it's what it's all about anyway.

Also, my attempt at blueprints has failed. I just don't have the software, resources or experience with this sort of task. I have a couple people in mind to ask about it though, so it's not in the canner just yet.

Well aware of that fact Meshakhad. So far no one was immediately there when the "ringer" was buzzed, I imagine it also alerts the bridge or the captain's office. So I suppose no one was in either of those places at the time either. That's only if it's actually what everyone thinks it is anyway. lol I think it is, just not sure it works.

Anyone consider knocking?

Regardless Lincoln will notice people still outside very soon and check more closely. I'm also trying to give you time to respond to what Shade said about the fat guy next door. lol

and I'm still waiting to find out if Mobbie.. I mean, Moe... is going to shoot me for a thief, or wait for an explanation. Or possibly some other reaction I haven't thought up.

As for the "doorbell", I would assume it would set off some kind of repeating tone or light, or something that would continue until shut down or answered, something like that. IF it even works lol.

And as to deckplans, I'd be MORE than happy to work something up for Defiant, if you wish. If someone wants to send me via email

Shadesiren at, you guessed it, gmail.com

and then I can see about editing something up. I do enjoy making deckplans, and I have all the raw materials here from the Obie's and other deckplans. IF you want me to, let me know, send me stuff, etc.

um.. I think that catches me up?

I could respond to Mei, but I'm thinking during her short trip to the Wednesday, Moe and Shade can wrap up the stolen item conversation, and then Shade will respond to her.

HOW she responds.. well.. we'll see. *snicker*

I won't let her be mean :P
