I'm sorry to hear that, Freyda. But I also don't get the problem.

An Asgard is a perfect fit for a Stargate game, what with all the Thor episodes and Hermiod in Atlantis, right there as part of the team. They're right there in the core rules to be played.

I also think you've been doing a fine job playing an Asgard, as Kaspar says. What's more, Freyda's presence has been a perfect RP opportunity for Hilda. Freyda is literally her goddess. It's been fun to play that up, worship her, obey her, etc., but also to balance that and come to terms with Freyda as an alien scientist and Freyda as a person. Obviously, I won't play it up every day for the sake of keeping the game playable (or else Hilda would smack the others every time they disagreed with her, like now).

I understand if the character just isn't as fun for you, as I know I've had characters like that. But please know you have been a perfect fit for the game and the team. Maybe you could alter some aspects of the character to make Freyda interest you more. That's worked for me in the past.

And the Protected Planets Treaty shouldn't be a big issue, game-wise. We can hide Freyda and her chair, have her wave a big neutral flag and sit off to the side, or give some diplomatic excuse to the Goa'uld. Frankly, seeing an Asgard among us should give the Jaffa reason to stop and think before they shoot at us.

In reply to Hilda (msg # 671):

First of all, let me answer the unasked question ... yes, I am mentally unhinged. Join me, won't you...

Next, you may be wondering why Kaspar is interested Hilda's impression of the appearance of the aircraft she saw.  Well, it's because I -- me, Vince, the Player, not Kaspar the Character -- don't think is was an aircraft.  That is to say, I don't think it was a fixed-wing aircraft.  Star*Master wrote that "...after watching its movements..." Hilda realized it wasn't a real bird.

Initially Hilda looked up and thought she did see a bird, which doesn't necessarily have to be flapping any wings, it could be gliding, but I just thought the use of the word "movements" was telling. Star*Master didn't say "...after watching it glide around..." or "...fly around...", he said "movements", and further qualified it by saying that said movements didn't look "normal".

I think Hilda just saw a flying machine that flaps its wings...I think she saw an Ornithopter.

I could be wrong, of course. I am mentally unhinged, after all. ^_^

To be honest, I don't know. It was rather late when I made my post and I was desperately trying to catch up on games after days of work and babysitting. I just went off StarMaster's description and called it a night. I did think (and kind of hope!) it was an ornithopter.

It's possible Hilda thinks Earth planes flap their wings though. :)

StarMaster?

Cool. The fighters seem to think alike. It's all getting way too much expanded into meaningless details, while virtually nothing happens.



The player who played Freyeda seemed to have thought so, too.

@Team 1: Who's got the MALP remote?

In reply to Rajip Mojdar (msg # 675):

It must be between the seat cushions in the Asgardian hover chair that was absconded. That's one of the galactic constants, remotes always end up between furniture padding. :D

Unfortunately, Rajip's no princess, even despite his stunning looks, so he won't find it by himself probably.

Actually, Vasandra should still have the MALP remote control.

OK, I'll ask her. And what about the monitor for the wideo camera. Where did it lose the signal if at all?

SG-X1 can now increase their characters to level 2 before returning to the mission.

Woohoo! :D It should be a Soldier level for Hilda now.

Is it the season or is this game dying?

I hope it is the season friend

Merry Christmas Everyone!


Yes, it was the season (plus normal RL issues) that got the best of me on some days, causing a bit of absent mindedness.

The game is still going on.

<b>Merry Christmas

Third that.

I feel so FULL.  Too much grub.

Hope everyone had a happy holiday and didn't get too drunk last night!


Everyone ready to get back to gaming now?

I'm ready. And no drunkage for me. I only finished half of one drink. :D

I've already forgotten the celebrations. Heading for work now, again :/

I had a nice holiday also.  And no drinking for me either.

Sad that work is still there after the holidays.  That's rude of it.

SG X-2:

You're still talking in the corridor, right?

In reply to Rajip Mojdar (msg # 692):

I boo-boo'd in my last post in Briefing Room. I've since edited it to fix the error.

Sorry, this week has been insanely busy. Hope to be back to post IC in the next few days.

No problem. I've been having one of those weeks, too.
