*Mag wanders in, sipping on his free GreenyThingy®©™.*

The addons page is back, and the plug's been uploaded. So whenever one of the mods (looks like it's pretty much just SA left) puts it up, it'll be available for everyone's downloading pleasure.

So, barkeep, how's this college business going?

[Not bad, just got the connection up and running. Frantic day today, and it looks like it'll be that way for a while, until I get settled in.]

Ehhh... I liked the old interphase better.

Anyway, /me orders another dozen GreenyBlues®©™ just for old times sake.

I booted up Ares today for like the first time in a month, and tried to beat the "Down the tubes" of EarthQuest...

...and no I didn't win...

Mein Gott ze half changez all ze po?o´´enie

LCA strolls confidently into the bar,
it looks the same, yet different somehow.
Ah yess,
All these dark brooding 90s corridors have been replaced by gleaming bright brushed Alu-Plastikk®©™ :P Empire Strikes Back style corridors of the new millennium...

Took me ages to find the bar, in re-plating the building they have also managed to move the bar an indeterminate number of floors up and changed the layout of all the floorplans, without reprogramming the autovators with the new locations. There's a storage closet on Level 8 with 200+ beings in it all looking for a drink.

I had to actually walk here in the end B)

Beams in a crate of GreenyBlues®©™ ;) to warm up the new image bar - it'll take a little getting used to... ;)
Oh, so it is another bug hunt then...

[Yeesh, do the forums look ugly now. Why oh why??]

My droids are going to set about getting this place back to normal soon. We're moving into high orbit around a nearby planet in order to effect repairs. The bar's been through quite a lot lately. I think I need another GreenyBlue™©®

Well good, then! *Helps himself to five drinks.* On your tab, mag. No rush to pay me back. Maintenance costs are down a lot since the patronage stopped leaving and entering and just petrified where they're sitting.

/Skyfox appears out of nowhere, mumbles something about upcoming tests...

He grabs a keg of GreenyBlue™©®, and then heads off into the unkown, encountering the Sarilian gateship while flying around in his 'lejee cruiser.

Whooee. I've had so much stuff to do over the past weeks I've neglected my tending. *Serves up a PGGB and starts cleaning off the quarter inch of dust accumulated on the countertop.*

Lord Commander Anic staggers in, jacket smouldering from having been recently aflame.

Hm, looks like a gathering of survivors...

Just had a lucky escape in the Homeworld2 Mac Demo tutorial combat grounds.
Lost the entire fleet in an exercise!
Gettin it next week though :P ;) B) ;) , even though it's not as exciting as Ares.

Joins the queue at the bar.
Scans the row of coloured drinks and things
Er I'll have some of that red stuff please...
Oh, so it is another bug hunt then...

Mackilroy plummets from the sky and lands on the ground in front of the bar. He gets up, and as he is extremely dizzy, looks at the sign and thinks, "Boozerama," he wanders in, orders a GreenyBlue, and collapses in a chair. After drinking his GreenyBlue, he passes out.
At last he came to a door, with these words in glowing emeralds: THE END OF THE WORLD. He did not hesitate. He opened the door and stepped through.

The Salrilian wonders what the Boozerama is before researching it in the Salrilian SuperComputer and discovering it is a bar from a paralell universe. The Salrilian looks at Mackilroy with renewed respect.

The Salrilian calls in two Audemedon servants.

/skyfox wanders back in, nodding to the few patrons that have suddenly sprung to life.
He grabs a GreenyRed™©®, and pours over a set of tech manuals describing interdimensional tachyonic travel.

Mackilroy wakes up, and notices Skyfox is reading several tech manuals on interdimensional tachyonic travel. He looks over Skyfox's shoulder, and says, "So that's how I got here..." He then orders alcohol, notices that nothing in the bar is called alcohol, and promptly orders another GreenyBlue. He then pulls out a shotgun, and throws it to the barkeep.

The Salrilian demonstrates Matter/Antimatter Thermonucleic Fission Propulsion.

"Start with equal amounts of matter. Convert - using antinucleic gravitons - half the matter to antimatter. Feed very slowly into a Thermonucleic Containment chamber. Open a small regulated fission port at the back. The fission reactions will propel the ship forward at a velocity directly proportional to the density of the graviton stream.

/Skyfox orders an obish ale before continuing his studies.
*pauses
"Barkeep, what propulsion system does this station use to keep it's high level orbit??"
/walks over to vending machine and tries open it with several pounds of antimatter grenades before realizing that the vending machine is invincable, sits back down and waits for the barkeep to come out of the back and respond.

Mackilroy says, "It's over in the left corner behind the neutron bombs."

Mackilroy drinks a GreenyBlue.

Propulsion system? I'm actually not sure exactly what the tech specs for this place are. I can let you down into the engineering level if you want to have a look.

*Puts the shotgun that was tossed to him away, below the bar. It joins a large assortment of other weaponry.*
