    Anniversary Sale Over - Survey of the Damage

    You have excellent taste in fiscal irresponsibility, sir. I wound up with the very same expenditures, save for the M50 and racing suit. (but grabbed 3 cheap Auroras to inflict on friends) I also hit concierge and feel kind of dirty and ashamed as a result. Like getting a 'frequent patron'...

    Those of You Thinking of Getting a Javelin - Read This First

    **pats Flashwit on the head** Oh, you poor, poor, deluded fool... Such words have passed so many of our lips, yet the lure of Christ Roberts' vision is mighty, whilst our financial discipline is weak.

    Voice Acting

    Wouldn't do much damage? For a light aircraft, a bird strike or a drone strike could be deadly - a larger engine may have better chances, but if you're in a single engine plane and lose the powerplant on climbout, you start praying for an empty field somewhere in front of you. Don't get me...

    Star Wars Teaser Trailer Debut:

    ...since 1983. The greatest Sci-Fi ship in the history of ever is back. I utterly ruined my pants at least 3 different ways right at the 60 second mark.

    Anniversary Sale: How many wallet casualties?

    My Hornet, an M50 CCU, and all my Auroras got turned into slag to go towards the Starfarer I've wanted from the beginning as well as a MM. I really want a Retaliator (so pretty!!!), and the MM doesn't excite me, but I think it will be a good profit maker and hopefully I can earn a Tali right...

    Ship names

    I believe I've seen it mentioned that we'll be able to name our ships in-game (think 'Memphis Belle', 'Spirit of St. Louis', 'Glamorous Glennis', etc.) I don't have any good ideas for the rest of my fleet, but Black Sunder's mention of one of the best 'pep rally' movie scenes in recent memory...

    Your Ships. The Why and The Future Purchases.

    Given that the Tali is currently on sale, how are you holding up? I think there are a bunch of us in the same boat - it looks like gorgeousness drizzled with awesomesauce, but it's too expensive to really justify buying outright. Still, I badly want one just so I can have it loaded to the brim...

    Roll call for potential Javelin crowd funding. [Fundraising canceled]

    I think we should buy it now as well - many people have said "let's just earn one in-game", which I'm all for, but we don't know what the in-game availability will be like (we may be on a 3-month waiting list for the shipyards to build more, CIG may severely limit availability for game balance...

    Gentlemen PREPARE your wallets

    Well, that appears to be exactly what Microsoft will be doing with Windows 10. Of course, people actually liked HL2 and subsequent episodes, which can't really be said of Windows 8...

    Best cold open evar. And the bookmarks toolbar was hilarious.

    So...what y'all do for a living?

    Well, I really don't work directly in engineering right now - it's all IT. I'd say it's really hard to judge how good it is to work 'in the industry' - it really comes down to finding the right company to work for. That has as much to do with your own personality and the corporate culture than...

    TEST REJOICE: November subscriber exclusive hangar flair is a liquor cabinet!

    Take this man up on his offer! My hangar is pretty much bare of flair, which doesn't bother me - you can't fly hangar flair, after all. And I'm 'meh' on subscribing anyway - not like my gaming potato can play any games from the past 3 years in anything other than 'holiday slide show' setting...

    So...what y'all do for a living?

    Yo, shout outs to my engineering homies. My degree is in mechaninical engineering, but I currently work as an IT manager. I'm far from surprised that we have a lot of IT folks here - would be far more interesting if we had a whole contingent of people who majored in animal husbandry or...

    Where State the Squadron 6?

    Day 3.14159: While crude MS Paint illustrations now bring color (and confusion) to wikipedia topics as varied as hydrangea paniculata, Anton Chekov's childhood boarding school, and 'boogers', the piloting while intoxicated entry rapidly becomes one of the most well-researched and documented...
