Leif's DISCONTINUED GURPS Traveller Game OOC01

[Centisteed]

As for my location for the intercom thing being
inside the ship, well think of airports. People
gather to board in a section & a tube to get
into the ship. At the docking station for a
plane, for example, they have an intercom.

I figured when you said that people were waiting
to board the ship, they would be in a waiting
room, with seats ready to board. Not standing
around outside. Even if they were standing
outside, if you were addressing a crowd, you
could go out with a bullhorn & yell it out.

However, since bullhorns aren't used at airports
& we're talking about science fiction & the future,
I would figure there would be some sort of visual
intercom system at the docking station where
people enter the ship & where crowd control,
arrival into the ship can be done. Seemed like
quite a few people getting on board after all.

I wasn't exactly thinking JFK or anything, but I figured there would be at least a few of the "gates" in operation. I didn't mean standing around outside and I surely didn't intend to say something like that or gave that impression.

 

[Centisteed]

It's all about about the details, eh?

 

[Leif]

Maybe not so much, at least for me it's more about the impressions and feelings inspired by the descriptions. But, hey, details are good, too! Whatever turns the crank on your own Jump Drive, I guess.

Gonna be out for a few days. Have some minor surgery
coming up.

Gonna be out for a few days. Have some minor surgery
coming up.

Good luck with that. Our thoughts are with you.

 

[Leif]

Yes, we wish you a painless procedure and a speedy recovery.

 

[Centisteed]

Thanks guys. My gall bladder has officially been removed.
Now I'm just waiting for that cut around the belly button
to heal up & I think I'll start feeling like my normal self
again!

 

[Leif]

We're glad to hear that everything worked as planned! Here's hoping your incision heals quickly!

Hi Leif,

I just rolled for engineering. After I get some
conversation from the others in the cockpit,
I'll go back & resolve the engine issues.

Btw, have you ever though of doing a
GURPS Traveller podcast? I was looking
around on iTunes & some folks were
doing a live D&D podcast, thought it
was pretty funny. I bet something like
that could be done with Skype & a
conference call. The dice rolls will
need their own mic. lol.

The D&D podcast was called Critical Hit.
Seems very mechanical..haha. Entertaining
nonetheless.
