Will do.
Yes I know I mistyped BCDO in my latest Nia piece. Right? I keep thinking it's "Bridge Commander of the Day" instead of "Bridge Command Duty Officer." What can I say, I've watched more M*A*S*H (where they had "officer of the day") than Star Trek.
Hey, can I ask a dumb question (one that I think my characters would already know, so I wouldn't be able to ask in-game)?
These biosensors that keep being affected by the prototype... what the heck do they do? What are they used for?
At a guess, I'd say identifying life forms
As an example, Rangin was using the bio-sensors to try and locate Kylah after the assault on Anubis.
But given the huge population, it was a proverbial needle in a haystack, which is why he switched to a magnet
In the land of the blind, the one-arm man is king.
FYI our company's annual conference runs the next couple days, so I may be hit or miss Tues & Weds.
Thanks for the elucidation, guys. And that's why I'm primarily playing a Communications specialist rather than a scientist.
Have a good time at the conference, g_u.
Damn, once again Collins has some amazing perceptive abilities that put Kylah's empathic powers to shame. I can understand her thinking that Nia and Cooper had some kind of weird issues with one another, but to immediately figure out that they were romantically involved? Too bad about that miscarriage back on OCIII, because with her mad detecting skillz I think she could've solved the Wilson murder all by herself in under a day!
She didn't "figure it out", she's guessing based on intuition. If Cooper and Onn had been adversaries, Onn would not have please that that's who Collins is involved with. But if she said "I guess you used to date her" that sounds jealous and petty. The way she phrased it is meant to elicit information, nothing more. Y'know, like the protagonist saying something completely outrageous, to which the antagonist says "Yes! how did you know?" and the protagonist answers "You just told me"
I'm back in black. Well, after I sleep for 16 hours...conference all good, thanks for the best wishes!
Glad to hear it, and welcome back.
With WES's permission, I am sorry to have to tell you that her mom died earlier this week. Our best wishes and heartfelt condolences are with her, of course.
I'm so very sorry, WES. Please know we're here for you and are thinking of you.
Wow, Bennett kinda sucks as BCDO, doesn't she? A half-hour into her watch, she's abandoning her post to check out hot guys with swords? Clearly a gal with her priorities straight.
I may have rushed the movie, but Collins and Cooper are fine until the timeline catches up with them
Y'all are doing great. If you can do so without rushing, let's have everyone turned in or beginning their next watch for the (ship's) night in the next couple of days, please.
That sounds like awesome romantic picnic fare. I want someone to take me on a picnic
Is Rangin trying to trigger a PTSD episode in Kylah?
I thought Vulcans were Vegetarians
That's also my understanding. She is quite a bit more adventurous in her cuisine than other Vulcans we've seen.
Heh, Rangin in charge - wonder what orders I should give?
Hm, the windows are dirty - someone detail Mr Graham to go and clean them from the outside
In the land of the blind, the one-arm man is king.
Gee, I don't know if Collins would have, but if I were in the big chair, instead of taking notes, I'd have said "Computer - begin recording all bridge activity and sensor logs"
So, just how much trouble can I get the Yorktown into
In the land of the blind, the one-arm man is king.
Collins wakes up suddenly. She blurts out "I'm missing something exciting. There's activity of some kind on the bridge. Why was I not included?" She then flops back down and falls back asleep.
To keep breathing as a Starfleet redshirt, situational awareness is key.
Graham wakes up from a terrible nightmare. Nothing could be worse than losing Jane. Except....Rangin being in charge of the ship. Fortunately that will never happen, he reassures himself before going back to sleep.
To all those asleep, don't worry, you'll soon be included.
Wonder what's going to happen next
In the land of the blind, the one-arm man is king.
You can see the little hearts popping out of Kylah's head when she looks at Rangin
Heh. It's more like at about 1:25-1:29 (the video's cued up to just before that moment) in the best scene in one of the best films ever.
A great scene from a great movie - my all-time favorite film, as a matter of fact.
It's in my top ten, for sure.
