Stardate: 107798:9095 - Hazed: Some? Is there anyone who HASN'T tried to take the short-cut to Emperordom?

Stardate: 107807:0441 - Freya: Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.
Stardate: 107808:0308 - Paul: Any connection between your reality and mine is purely coincidental.
Stardate: 107809:4045 - Paladin: You don't have a reality. You are all here to serve mine.

Stardate: 107815:3348 - Vlad: Meditations for Miserable People: 1) If I fall off the wagon no one will know because I have no friends. 2) Hope is like the sun, which, as I journey towards it, is bound to give me cancer. 3) Self-discovery is useless unless I discover I'm somebody else. 4) I am not an unattractive person. I am downright hideous.
Stardate: 107815:5756 - Paladin: Ummm...the sun won't give you cancer Vlad, but it will kill you.

Stardate: 107816:3747 - Vlad: The neurotic builds castles in the air. the psychotic lives in them. The psychiatrist collects the rent.

Message of the Day: March 8, 2004:
A number of typos and small bugs have been fixed.
Stardate: 107885:4717 - Paul: Good idea to have those bugs "fixed", you wouldn't want them to reproduce and end up with a game full of bugs!

Stardate: 107953:2812 - Vlad: I went to the doctor today. He finally figured out what has been ailing me lately. Seems I have a bad case of Blarney Stones;)

213001:689 - Wolfyn: Tolerance is composed of nine parts apathy to one of brotherly love, persecution is at least a sign of personal interest.
213001:695 - Xorith: I thought tolerance was how much you could drink before falling into a drunken heap on the floor next to the barstool?

Stardate: 107989:2184 - Freya: In the fight between you and the world, back the world. -- Frank Zappa

Stardate: 107996:0854 - Vlad: Do you find yourself losing stamina? You just don't have the endurance you once had? Then try "Marsrat Nuggets," new from Vladco! Now with more leeches than ever before!
Stardate: 107997:3262 - Sallyme: nah I pass on the nuggets.. you promise more leeches.. but if one were to count them there'd be less than before...I am holding out for grizzle kabobies!!
Stardate: 107998:1406 - Vlad: hands Sallyme a map of Mercury and a rusty knife to get herself some*

Stardate: 108008:2534 - Zero: One ponders the DISPLAY command... hrrrm...

Stardate: 108009:6408 - Zero: I said one does. One doesn't mean Devilish. One is the loneliest number...

Message of the Day: Thursday March 18, 2004:
There are now a number of locations that will kill you if you enter them, so be careful when you are exploring!
You will also gradually lose stamina as you move around on the surface of a planet, so remember to eat regularly.
Stardate: 108016:7711 - Ahal: And brush your teeth. And comb you hair and would it hurt to wear some decent clothes for once? I don't know what is going on with you kids. And for the love of Bella, wear clean underwear, you might fall into a deathtrap and I'm not coming to the hospital to claim that seared corpse with week old underpants on it!

Stardate: 108017:3983 - Freya: If only God would give me some clear sign! Like making a large deposit in my name in a Swiss bank.-- Woody Allen

Stardate: 108026:2689 - Freya: When I am abroad, I always make it a rule never to criticize or attack the government of my own country. I make up for lost time when I come home. -- Sir Winston Churchill
